I agree with feeding them bone just not beef bone as it is too hard and can crack teeth. I don't grind any of their raw bone/meat but sometimes I will use a meat pounder to break up the bone for them to make it easier to eat. If you give too much meat it can cause diarrhea so you would need to add more bone to the meal. Every dog is different as to the amount of meat to bone. A great group to visit is [email protected]. There are knowledgeable people on there that have fed raw for years. Raw keeps teeth white and breath fresh.
