Lamb Neck bones ?

[Good Man 196]

Hows it going, just wondering, is it ok to feed lamb neck bones to lurchers?

Would it crack their teeth?

fed knuckle beef bone in the passed and it cracked a lurchers teeth.

Its most of the neck spine of the lamb.

Got a few offered to me recently.

thanks.

Lamb bone is much softer than beef and so should be okay (tho I would only give ribs to a pup rather than leg, neck etc as they seem to be the softer bones). With neck/back/tail bones just keep an eye on the dog, If the vertebrae split and the dog rushes to eat the individual bits they can get caught in throat. So only feed as whole neck etc rather than in bits. Beef rib, brisket bones are all okay for dogs too and I havent heard of any teeth being broken on those, just beef leg/ knuckle bones.

 

hope this helps

I feed lambs necks to mine and they are fine. Load bearing bones are ones to avoid because of splintering so I don't give mine any legs.

Lamb ribs and neck are the best bones for dogs.
