Pigs Feet? Chicken Feet? What Weird Things Can Dogs Eat?
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I've seen ox tails, chicken feet, pigs feet and raw beef tripe in the meat department of our store. Can dogs eat these? What other strange things can they eat? My store never has knuckle or marrow bones so I'm looking for other stuff to give them. Any ideas?
