Can dogs eat cooked bones?
Not considered safe. Cooked bones become brittle and can splinter.
Cooked bones are widely flagged as a hazard rather than a toxin. Cooking makes bone brittle, so it can splinter into sharp fragments that risk choking, mouth injuries, or damage and blockages in the gut. Cooked poultry bones are singled out most often. This is a physical-injury risk, separate from the question of what is poisonous.
