When I was feeding a raw diet to my older dog she got a lot of meat bones - mostly beef marrow bones but also lamb and even turkey and chicken bones. I have personally never had a problem with bones splintering but it is recommended that you stay away from chicken bones because they splinter -especially cooked one's.

My puppy gets beef marrow bones whenever my grocery store has them. I would given them once a week if they were always available. They do work wonders on keeping teeth clean and usually dogs enjoy them!
