Extremely so.
They COMMONLY get stuck in the intestinal tract, which necessitates emergency surgery to save the dog's life.
Don't do it. Please....just don't.

Yes it's harmful - their systems cannot digest the cob portion and so it comes out in big chunks and makes a huge mess for you plus it's painful for them. This can also result in a life- threatening situation where the digestive system twists in the dog and the dog requires emergency surgery

I had a dog a few years ago who ate a corncobb and had to go to surgery for bowel obstruction, he almost died, so please don't feed your dog with that! The best way of feeding a dog is with dog food, not food for humans....

No.. not if the dog will eat a corncob.. I have never heard of a dog that liked that sort of food but.. what the heck.. there is nothing wrong with it as a food if they will eat it.

isn't a metaphor for, well, you know.
Because that would be harmful to BOTH of you.

Do not feed him that. It could obstruct the bowels and kill him.

I don't know if it's harmful, I'm just wondering - WHY?
