Question
can my 13 week old boxer eat bones a local butcher gave me a bag of bones for my dogs i have a 2 year old boxer bitch as well
Hi John,
Yes you can give your dogs bones but never chicken bones as they are brittle,can splinter and cause major intestinal problems. I only choose large beef bones and knuckles for my boxers and to be on the safe side always supervise them when they have the bones. Thank you for question.
