Full Question:
Cindy,

I would like to take advantage of the seasonal availability of whole turkey. My 2 dogs are 60# and are good eaters who chew well. Are there any precautions on feeding turkey and are there any parts that I should avoid? Thanks.

Cindy Cindy's Answer:
In my experience the wing bones and the legs bones can splinter and be quite sharp. I think I would grind those up if I were going to feed whole turkey.

I’m sure that many dogs will chew and do fine, but I’m leery of those parts of the turkey for my own dogs.
