Raw egg is fine to give dogs but I would think an egg every day was far too much  :o  I give Coco a raw egg with her food about once a week - a lot of BARF feeders do this and often give the shell and all though Miss Fussypants Coco doesn't like the shell with hers  ::)

one a day is to much, poor dog will be eggbound!  :lol2:

Honey gets one or two a week - I just love giving her them whole (in the garden) and watching her try to break it open - it took her 20mins the other day!!!  :005:

Does that make me mean??  ph34r

I give my two 1 egg a week and they love it.

When my sister had her German Shepard her vet told her to give it an egg a day as he was so big he could manage that no problem. I would have thought 1 a day for a cocker may be a bit much, don't want to end up with a bunged up tum  ph34r

 I hope not otherwise I'm a meanie too :005: I put Milly's egg whole in her bowl this morning, it was funny to watch her being so gentle picking it up and carrying it outside and nosing it about. She eventually got fed up wanting to get the contents and took it over to the paving slabs and dropped it where she knew she could get it cracked open  :005:
