I've found some mixed stuff with a general search.
Thoughts on giving game bones (elk, deer, antelope) to a dog? Anything you need to be extra concerned about with them vs a beef bone, aside from watching for the runs (I know game is a lot richer than beef, so I just figured I could slip some pumpkin in his dinner as a precaution and because he loves pumpkin anyway!)?
I usually buy Quill RMB from the store, but a friend recently got an elk and dropped off a bag of bones and soon my BF and I should be able to get a couple of antelope. So if I can just salvage the bones for Quill rather than having to buy some, I'm all for it!
The only thing I could think of having to worry about is possible bacteria that maybe a beef bone from the store wouldn't have, but they are good and cared for as obviously we want the meat from the bones! Anyone else feed game bones and have thoughts on it? Thanks!
