I've been playing with the raw idea for a while, but I wasn't sure my 20 month old dane would eat it, he has a very discernable palate. I was at the store and saw a back of Chicken leg quarters for half off, so I decided to get them. When I got home I decided to offer it to the older dane, he took it, carried it a few feet and dropped it. Sniffed at it a couple of times and then no longer had any interest. My little puppy (just shy of 5 months, also a dane) looked interested so I gave her one and she went crazy like a wild wolf just chewing away, crunching some bones, really enjoying herself. SHe didn't get that much after a lot of work, so I took off the actual drumstick piece and gave it to her so I Could take the rest away. Since she was doing so good at chewing I figured I'd be safe. She chomped on it a couple times for about 20 seconds and then pretty much swallowed it whole
I wasn't expecting that and now of course I'm going to have a panic attack that she's going to get an obstruction. Besides this, they did have their "normal" dinner 3 hours before. Should I be very worried about the little one?
