Sorry if this appears to be a daft question to some of you but how much of a lamb rib cage can dogs eat? They are usually given chicken wings which they devour in seconds and never any problems but lamb bone is obviously much more dense. Is a lamb rib cage easily digestible by dogs! Thank you.
One of mine polished off a whole one including spine, in about 20 mins flat! Mind you, he was a wee bit uncomfortable in the poo department the next day. He's a medium-largish dog, 26kg.
It depends on how big the dog is (both in terms of jaw size and how much food it needs). My medium sized dog (Vizsla - 23kg) has big enough/powerful enough jaws to eat a whole ribcage and probably most of the spine if it's chopped up. At a sitting I would feed no more than a 1/4 or a bit less. Otherwise you will have a rather constipated dog!!! I would chop it up and feed a piece every other day - and combine it with some meat without bones in.
