Maybe. Cooked bones can splinter and cause severe internal damage to dogs. Lamb bones from table scraps are absolutely off-limits, along with any other cooked bones. Dogs’ strong stomach acid helps break bones down, and kill potential bacteria. However, raw bones pose potential risks, and should only be consumed under careful observation.
Symptoms to Look For
Dogs should only eat raw lamb bones under supervision, on a surface that can easily be cleaned (like linoleum or tile). Watch for these symptoms, in case of infection or complications:
- Vomiting
- Fatigue
- Bloody stool
- Dental issues
