Hmmm....I had heard about the chicken bones but I wasn't sure if it was urban legend or not.

My reasoning was that as carnivores, shouldn't dogs be able to handle bones? I also figured that they aren't that stupid and would eat it a certain way.

What about other bones? I will cease the chicken bones just to be safe. I thought the splintering made it easier to chew up, but then again, I am not a dog. What about the softer cartilage parts of chicken bones or chicken skins?

Also, does anyone know the real deal with rawhides? If they are so bad, shouldn't they be banned?

Thanks.
