Are T-bones bad for dogs?

Question

I have two dogs, a border collie and a beschaun fritzey. They both like to gnaw on T-bones whenever they happen upon the dinner table. My beschaun will just chew off the meat, gnaw on the bone, and basically leave it alone after that. My border collie will crunch the bone in her teeth and swallow chunks. I know they say bones are good for dogs (as long as it's not chicken) and I know dogs eat bones alot. I haven't seen my border collie acting strange, or whining, but I can't help wondering if she could be in pain and I wouldn't know it? Thanks, any tips or information on how to tell if she is in pain, or if bones can cause pain for dogs if they swallow them, would be great thx.

(Adding)

1. I dont feed them to her, other people do.
2. Thanks for the spelling error, I didnt feel like looking it up.
3. Yes, my dog has eaten them before and never shows any problems.

Thanks for the general info, from now on I'll be scolding anyone who feeds her bones.

Answer 1

As long as the bones don`t splinter and if they do they could lay in your dogs intestines and could actually splinter through their intestines and that would cost a vet bill by removing the splinter.. I buy beef rib bones for my 2 dogs and boil them. I give them 1/2 rib bone each night and they just eat the meat off and then i throw the bone away. My granddaughter brings her dog over and she crunches and chews and swallows the whole bone and it hasn`t affected her yet. We were told never to give our dogs pork bones they splinter real bad and we never give them chicken bones...

I once had an elderly lady for a friend. She had a wonderful little dog. A mix of some sort. She had the dog trained well and it behaved very well. Learn here https://tr.im/OlhCJ

She kept an uncovered candy dish on her coffee table with candy in it. The dog was forbidden to eat the candy. When she was in the room observing the dog he did not even appear to notice the candy. One day while she was in her dinning room she happened to look in a mirror and could see her dog in the living room. He did not know he was being watched. For several minutes he was sitting in front of the candy bowl staring at the candy. Finally he reached in and took one. He placed it on the table and stared at it, he woofed at it. He stared some more, licked his chops and PUT IT BACK in the bowl and walked away. Did he want the candy, oh yeah. Did he eat it? Nope. They can be trained that well but most, I'll admit, are not trained that well. When I was a young boy, maybe 5 years old. We had a german shepherd. He was very well trained also. My mom could leave food unattended on the table, no problem. She would open the oven door and set a pan roast beef or roast chicken on the door to cool. No problem. He would not touch it, watched or not. But butter? Whole other story. You leave a stick of butter anywhere he could reach and it was gone. He was a large shepherd so there were not many places he could not reach. Really, I think the number of dogs trained to the point they will leave food alone when not being supervised is very small indeed.
.
Now if we are talking obedience training, not food grubbing, that is a different story. Way back when I was first learning obedience training one of the final exercises was to put our dogs in a down/stay and not only leave the room but leave the building for 15 minutes. The only person that stayed was our trainer, not the owners. Most of the dogs in my class did not break their stay, which would be an automatic fail. I'm happy to report my dog was one of the ones that passed.

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://biturl.im/aU7CN

A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

actually. t-bones will help your dogs teeth get strong. and about them swallowing bones, well i have a dog and she chews on bones and she swallows them but she never shows any signs of that she is in pain but if u think that t-bones are hurting your dogs when they swallow them, u should stop giving those 2 them and bye some regular dog bones from the store. i hope i really helped!!!.

Answer 6

Cooked bones (no matter what kind) are SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS FOR YOUR DOG. They splinter and you are running the risk of having a dog with a perforated esophagus, stomach, intestine, colon, etc. This would require expensive surgery to repair and she may not survive!
Stop feeding them to your dog! If she does eat one, feed her bread and Vaseline to coat the bone splinters to help them pass...


Oh, and it is "Bichon Frise." Not "beschaun fritzey"

Answer 7

Yes the bones are bad they can get logged in your pets throat and die. Raw hide is bad aswell because the pieces can swell inside thier intestines. They have natural things such as cow and pig ears that are easier to digest.
