Is raw chicken feet or freeze-dried food safe for my dog to eat?

Is it safe to give my raw chicken feet. Can dog get sick from bacteria. Also I feed my dog Stella and chew and Merrick freeze dried food.

Hello, thank you for your question about Sky. There are many different opinions on feeding raw food diets, so you may hear different opinions depending on who you ask. I would not recommend feeding your dog raw chicken feet. In general feeding raw or even freeze dried food can lead to bacterial infections such as Salmonella. This can be transmitted to humans also. There is no advantage to feeding freeze-dried/raw food over commercial dog food. Hope this helps!
