My dog eats cooked soup bones with marrow. Are they safe for her?

Question

Thank you for your response to my question regarding Brownies leaky eyes! I will try the Angel Eyes ASAP. While browsing through the question/answer forum I came across your advice regarding giving dogs cooked bones. It was DON'T do it! I'm feeling like a terrible Mom now because I buy the frozen soup bones at my local grocery store for Brownie as a treat. I cook one for 10-12 minutes (there is little to no meat on the bone, however inside is full of marrow which she LOVES) and then refrigerate.

I would not recommend feeding cooked bones, and it’s best to avoid raw bones as well. Cooked bones can splinter and cause an obstruction, constipation or diarrhea. Raw bones could cause an obstruction as well and could result in food borne illness.
