Give a dog a bone
All dogs should get to enjoy the pleasure of gnawing on a bone! It’s great for their health and development too. Here are some tips for feeding raw bones for dogs:
- Always feed raw bones for dogs, never cooked. Cooked bones can splinter and cause harm or choking.
- Bones are nature’s toothbrush and help support healthy gums and teeth
- Bones are an excellent source of calcium, antioxidants, minerals and proteins
- Bones must be suited to the size of the dog. The dog should not be able to put the entire raw bone in its mouth.
- Supervision may be necessary when you give your dog a bone (and it’s essential for puppies).
- The guideline is for 1-2 raw bones per week for an adult dog, and 1 per week for a puppy.
