Why are cooked bones bad for the dog? I'm starting to feel guilty.....I often give mine the bone left over from a steak or some baby backs. Any information you can provide is appreciated.

(FR is awesome, what a knowledgeable community!)

Steak bones are ok
Some small grocery stores sell marrow bones which are excellent

I NEVER give Maddie rawhide or any such stuff, only an occasional steak bone, marrow bones, and raw or Merrick's canned "Wingaling" chicken wing bone

Cooked bones become hard and brittle which can cause all kind of problems. But there are some dogs that seem to do okay with cooked bones.... but I would not risk it
