Raw bones are OK. We use only Beef &/or Chicken. Pork usually upsets the
tummy. Turkey neck bones do not digests well in all dogs. Anyone interested
in how I feed my dogs...www.kridlersgermanshepherds.com and click on Diet link.
I'm not a nutritionist or a professor, but been doing this for 8 yrs and am
Happy.
My list of 10 do not give dogs:
Raw Hide
Cow hoof
Pigs ears
Greenies
Smoked or Cooked bones
Soy based foods
Kibble foods that are just out to make all the money they can...ie..Purina,
Pedigree, etc.
Potatoes
Onions
Grapes

In comment, in the time I worked for a vet, I saw my share of raw hide
products surgically removed from dogs. Also saw a Kong removed from a police
K-9. My point, the few don't make up the whole. I'm sure some dogs have
problems, but shouldn't we just be smart about what we give our dogs to chew?
While I don't feed bones small enough to consume, I do allow my dogs to gnaw
on big cow hip bones or leg bones. Large enough the dog can't swallow, or even
get chucks off. One dog never had to have a dental cleaning because her teeth
were always beautiful. This was before I knew about diets causing teeth
problems and she was on a cheap pet food. Lived to be 13 (husky mix).
Let's see, greenies are bad, raw hide is bad, bones are bad, what's left to
give them to chew on? Again, just be as knowledgeable as possible on what your
dog gets.

My husband constantly tells his clients,DO NOT FEED
BONES,I have seen him on numerous occasions doing
expensive surgery,to go into the intestines and remove
broken lumps of bones that can not pass through the
intestines,I have given my young puppies bones to help
teeth on,they are removed after they have had a bit of
a chew,and always under a watchful eye.I avoid giving
my adults bones, I don,t want to see them go thru
unwarrented surgery.You are doing the right thing.
Lorraine
