Can raw bones cause choking or puncture the intestines?
First, let us please remind that ALL BONES MUST BE FED RAW. It is cooked bones that become sharp and splintery, resulting in the old “no chicken bones for the dogs” adage. Raw bones are fully digestible and it is not only normal, but healthy, for dogs to eat them. Never in our years of feeding have we had a dog choke on a bone, or have a problem with digestion, blocked intestines due to bones etc. In fact, we’ve found that the RMB meals are digested much more quickly than the kibble that we fed previously.
