What type of chicken bones should my puppy be eating?

Post by JashimChando on Sat Apr 10, 2010 10:04 pm

I've been advised that it's healthy for my dog to be eating chicken bones, but what kind? Cooked or uncooked? Some people have been telling me to be feeding it cooked, yet some other people tell me to feed it uncooked chicken bones. I don't know which kind! My parents tell me it's vital for my dog to be eating chicken bones, as it provides lots of nutrients, and believe me, they're quite stubborn and refuse to not feed it chicken bones. Help!? Cooked or uncooked?

um... I don't think that dogs should be eating the actual bone. If they bite up the bone and then swallow it, it could cut up their intestines...

I'm voting for raw, meaty bones, like drumsticks or chicken wing tips. Remember, dogs don't NEED to have their food cooked, their guts are like cast iron. But cooked bones are brittle, they splinter into sharp points and can puncture their stomach lining. Raw bones are more pliable and dogs tummies are designed to deal with raw meat and bone.

you are supposed to give your dog raw uncooked bones. if they eat a cooked bone it can easily splinter and get caught somewhere which will cause an ulser, alot of pain for the dog, and a trip to the vet.
if it is a small puppy (like mine, a maltese) wing tips are great, they love them.
if your dog doesnt like uncooked meat, you can cook it til it is just brown on the outside.
