G’day 

they are actually good for them. Cause they are not cooked the bones of the tips are only cartlidge  and soft and the dogs will enjoy a good tooth clean as they crunch them down. Now any cooked bone is a definite no no for your pet as shatter and the sharp bits can pierce thier insides.

I do the huge soup bones for the dogs.  Since they will destroy any toy, they have a big basket of bones.  Of course we are constantly tripping on them.  Since my husband loves to make wings, we will try giving the tips to them.

I give my boys chicken necks (raw) and also whole chicken frames that I get from the butcher. I buy a box of frames f o r 10 bucks, use a few for broth then give the rest to the dogs. I even give my Sarge the Bordeaux egg shells. The vet said he should be having at least 2 egg shells a day and raw egg mixed in his dry food.

That's crazy that your vet would recommend egg shells or chicken bones @notsmokinjo,  egg shells can be sharp going in and coming out and i would be scared to give any of my animals those. But then again I don't give either pet people food.

Sarge is the only one allowed egg shells. Dunno why but the vet says he is too skinny and the greater said the same thing about the egg shells.

 

They only ever get raw bones.

What does your vet think egg shells will do for him? Just out of curiosity....

Says it's good for his bones @jillar so probably calcium. He goes to the vet university vet science hospital because he is an on call blood donor.
