Feeding Raw Whole Eggs?
Anyone feeding raw, whole eggs to their dogs??? How many per week do you feed???
Yes, I know ALL about the controversy over this leading to Biotin deficiency. There is a lot of info supporting both views, and I care NOT to get into any talk about that.
We have chickens and organic eggs GALORE. The dogs like them and they are available. Just wondering how many per week most people are feeding.
I don't know why there are TD given. I have not given any TU or TD to anyone yet.
Hope it is not for feeding the "shells and all" since that is what I am talking about!!!!!!

I feed my Shepherd 3 raw whole eggs a week to help keep her fur shiny. I feed my four small dogs one raw whole egg each a week.

My brother has chickens, so we get lots off eggs. I give my dogs a raw egg once a week, or a boiled egg 2 times a week with the shell. They love it and it is good for them.

My dogs usually get 2, sometimes 3, whole eggs a week. Only one of my dogs has an issue with the eggshell so I crack the egg on to his meal, save the eggshells, bake till their brittle, and grind them into a powder that I can sprinkle on to his food.
I don't worry about biotin deficiency. Unless your dog is eating an insane amount of raw eggs, he's not going to ingest enough avidin to lead to biotin deficiencies.

I give my pit an egg every day for breakfast. Mix it right in with his hard food. He love's it. Since we've given in to him his fur is more shiny :) Although, I don't suggest starting off everyday. Maybe every other day or once a week.

I only do it on occasion, but I think that eggs are one of Nature's perfect foods, and you don't really have to worry about having too many.

Actually an egg is made up of two very different proteins, and you will see far better results only feeding the dog one of the two because one sort of overrides the benefits of the other.
