Collie Dog Owners

Chicken bones, one of the most common bones fed to dogs off the table is also one of the most dangerous foods. Most bones that humans consume are small - and remember, a collie is a large dog. A normal male collie doesn’t hesitate to wolf down a small bit without taking a moment to chew. Small bones, which splinter easy, have sharp edges, and are swallowed fast by the large collie dog can cause fatal damage to the throat, esophagus, and even stomach. Furthermore, a small sharp bone could easily get lodged in a collie’s throat. If you feel like you must give your dog a bone because you think “that’s what dog’s eat” - then please go to your local butcher shop and get a large leg bone or another type of bone and your collie will have to stop and think about before gulping it down!
