Best Answer

Most dogs can start to eat bones as soon as their puppy teeth are gone (6-8 months). It's also a good idea to wait this long so your dog can get used to chewing on toys. If you give your dog real bones (or raw hide) too early s/he may decide that chew toys are not enjoyable. Avoid cooked bones because they can splinter and injure a dogs throat, stomach, and intestine.

Dogs will continue to play with and nibble on bones off and on until the bones usefullness expires. This is when the bone starts to splinter or shatters and your dog tries to swallow these pieces. Take away the bone and the pieces so your dog is not hurt.

At least let it get up to a year before you try it. My boxer is six and loves beef bones.

don't give your dog real bones, the bone splinters can get caught in there throat and cause a lot of damage over time.
