Yes always good to supervise meal time, whether you're feeding raw or kibble.

It's also a good idea to mix it up for them. Rarely do my dogs get the same meal two days in a row.

With any bones you still should watch your dog. It is always possible that a fast, gulping dog could swallow a bone the wrong way. I get chicken quarters for my GSD and my med to smaller dogs they can do the wings.

Science is amazing. I didn't know that a dog's digestive defenses could handle these bacteria. And thanks for the link to Pet News and Views.

How did you get a diagram of Scooby Doo's digestive tract! This is great series. Buster and Ty scared us on Monday when they wolfed down the rest of the chicken wings we bought for them. You're right – not a lot of chewing going on. We imagined wings might get stuck in throat – was relieved to hear that dogs have “a fairly elastic esophagus.”
