Lambs are young sheep and their bones haven't fully developed so, YES, lamb bones can and do splinter and can be harmful to a dog if lodged in its throat or digestive tract.
no cooked lamb bones splinter you can only give it to them raw.
Yes, that is completely fine. Beware of poultry bones (chicken, turkey, etc.) since they splinter if chewed and can thus harm a dogs stomach lining. But lamb or cow bones are perfectly fine.
My dogs all love lamb bones - especially the Chihuahuas. As with any raw meaty bones, be sure to offer them raw and frozen. Cooked bones have the tendency to splinter, and freezing helps kill off some of the germs we people tend to be so concerned about.The above poster is correct, but be sure you get a good solid bone and not a thin one because raw or cooked they can splinter. I usually get good beef bones for my Bichon Frise and Cockapoo and then steam them. I stay away from the smoked bones as smoked meats aren't even good for humans. It's the marrow in bones that are excellent for your pets, and also chewing on the bones helps keep their teeth healthy.
No, dogs should only eat beef bones, the vets are frowning on giving bones now, but if your dog is in good health a beef bone once in a while is not harmful, a good hard bone one that cannot splnter. you lamb bone will splinter and may do some damage, don't give it to the dog
Take the dog to a veterinarian ASAP! Animal bones are very dangerous when ingested by dogs.
Yes They Can
No dogs should be given chicken bones, because they splinter easily and could pierce the dog's esophagus.
Only if they are RAW. All cooked bones splinter and are dangerous!
No. Chicken bones splinter easily. These splinters can cause serous injury to the digestive tract.
Yes, it can. And the bones can splinter and cut their insides.
It all depense on how hard the bone is. hard bones are ok. for small and large dogs no chicken bones they can breake.
They tend to be more dangerous than raw bones because they splinter easier and puncture the stomach and intestines.
