Raw Eggs...
My dog isn't fed raw, but she gets the odd scrap of raw meat such as chicken skins when I'm cooking..I have some eggs that are about to go off - can I feed her raw eggs?
How do I do it, just crack it in to her food bowl?
How many eggs is too many for a 13 kg dog?
Is it better to cook them lightly first?
Thanks

I'm not sure how many is too many, I give one at a time.

I have given her an egg before as someone said they carry them around really gently - thats exactly what she did just pottered around with it then gave it back!I will have a go at cracking one in and maybe see how that goes with her before giving her any more...

Well it went down very very well! I just cracked it in to the bowl and it was gone instantly.
Do you normally give the shell too? Or do you have to cook that bit?

If you dry the shell and powder it (in a coffee grinder) it is a valuable source of calcium.
If they eat the shell whole as it were, it usually comes out the way it went in.
