It's safe to feed dogs raw knuckle bones, but if you give them to them too often, your dog will get the runs. Once every week or 2 would be enough to keep their teeth and gums in great shape.

The best ones to get are those from the pet shop, the are baked hard enough not to splinter in their throats and hurt or kill them.I give ours the bone from the cooked leg of lamb but I do make sure I can see him eating it just in case. Definitely do not ever give any poultry bones ans they are very sharp and brittle and can cause problems like internal bleeding in the gut. don't give bones every day either as they can develop impacted bowels and that to can lead to a perforated eds bowel, apart from being extremely uncomfortable and pain full for the dog.

Raw hide bones are good. Go to your local pet store and find a hide bone that is good for your dogs teeth. A pork bone every now and hten is fine, just do not give your dog a chicken or turkey bone, these tend to break and splinter.

Buy a bone and expect it to be buried, only to appear covered in dirt and sitting on your livingroom floor. If you bought too many at the same time, the dog gets confused and will hide them all, so just buy a big one from the butcher. Oh, and remember dogs can be quite possessive of their bone, so don't try to take it off him, and don't give it small bones, or they will crunch them and probably shiit all over the place!.

It is not good for them ever. The bones CAN splinter in their throat and kill them. However, my cousin had a dog that lived to be almost 17 and he was fed all sorts of bones and he never had a problem. That was one lucky dog. He died of old age.
But please do not take the chance. Do not give bones to your dog or cat. Raw bones can give them salmonella poisoning too if you are not careful.

Basic Training of the Puppy - Read here https://tr.im/4p1q5
The new puppy is certainly one of the most adorable and cuddly creatures that has ever been created. It is the most natural thing in the world to shower it with love and affection. However, at the same time it is important to realize that if you want to have a well trained adult dog, you need to begin the training process right away. The dog, like its related ancestor, the wolf, is a pack animal. One of the features of a pack is that it has a single dominant leader. Your new puppy is going to want that leader to be you, but if you do not assume that role from the very beginning, the puppy’s instincts will push him to become the leader.
The most important thing to remember about training the puppy during its first six months of life is that it must see you as the leader of the family pack. The essential thing is gaining the trust and the respect of the puppy from the beginning. You will not do this by allowing the puppy to do whatever it wants to do whenever it wants to do it. On the other hand, a certain amount of patience is required. Most people err in their early training by going to extremes one way or the other. Although you need to begin the basic training process at once, you can not expect your dog to do too much at first. Basic obedience training is fine and should include simple commands like sit, stay, and come. Remember that trying to teach the dog advanced obedience techniques when it is a puppy is much like trying to teach a five year old child algebra.
It is also important to restrain from cruel or abusive treatment of the puppy. You can not beat obedience into your dog, and it certainly is not going to engender feeling of respect and trust. House breaking is an area where this usually becomes a problem because of the anger that is triggered when the puppy fails and creates a mess inside the home. Although this issue must be addressed without anger, it most be addressed. If you allow the puppy to eliminate inside the house, it will continue to do so as an adult dog. The same thing is true of other destructive or dangerous behavior such as chewing and biting. Do not expect the puppy to grow out of it. You are going to need to train the puppy out of it, but you should do so firmly but with a sense of play and fun using positive reinforcement and lots of love and praise for good behavior.

I give my guys a frozen, raw marrow bone about 1x/day, mostly to make their crates a wonderful place to be. I don't leave them unsupervised with these, though, as any bone can break apart and get stuck on a tooth, etc. But raw bones are great for keeping teeth clean, as are bully sticks. If I'm ever in doubt about them getting too much food, I just cut down on their kibble or the food they get in their bowl.

dependes on what kind of bones you are giving them. If you are giving them raw frozen bones. sure everday is fine,. If you are giving them the big hamor beef bones. not sure I would give them every day, sot sure of the amt of salt. I do not give mine rawhides everyday. However, there is usually a rawhide around from otherdays. I know that pig ears have a LOT of salt. I have found some all natural lamb ears and beef ears that the dogs love.
