Jane,
From what I understand about marrow bones, they are pretty rich (well the marrow anyway) and I believe you are right that this was the source of her tummy/bowel woes. She just kind of over did it, much in the same way we might over indulge in a favorite fresh fruit of the season. For something like this, pumpkin won't hurt, but it wouldn't be all that helpful either. Letting her tummy settle down with the fast as you did would be the best way to get her back on track.
