Can my dog eat an egg every day? What are the health risks?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | German Shepherd | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 9 months old

My dog goes in walk only once in a day like for sometime 15 minutes or 20 or 30 depending upon his and my mood and sometimes we dont go on walk for 2 days so is it safe to give 1 egg everyday in morning to him? What can egg cause to dog if given daily? Can it cause any heart disease or any other disease

Dogs are not prone to heart diseases like humans, so it is safe to give an egg once a day, even if Bruno is going out only once a day (although he should get out at least 2 times a day for 30 minutes each time for various other reasons).
