Raw Eggs - dogs eaten 2

Morning,

My big daft lump of a dog has eaten 2 potentially off raw eggs and the box.

Has anyone's dog done the same thing? Is he going to be sick?
He's got quite a sensitive belly at the best of times.

Raw eggs are good for them, shell and all.

My dog loves raw eggs! She eats the whole thing (in the garden because of the mess).

Not sure about the box though... keep an eye. If he's sick that's probably a good thing but watch for lethargy etc.

Ah, I didn't know raw was good for them.
I give them boiled eggs with the shells on.

I'm less bothered about the box to be honest, the bugger has eaten all sorts of cardboard/paper and been fine.

I was upstairs so am not sure where he ate them, I'll have to give the carpet a scrub later.

Thank you

My dog ate a dozen raw eggs, all the shells and most of the box once. Her stomach is cast iron, thankfully.

Regularly give mine a raw egg on their breakfast.

My dogs regularly get eggs I drop (we have hens and I try to carry too many in one go). It does no harm, except they fart a bit!

That'll explain the worse then usual farts of death Smile

Yep, that sounds like eggy trumps!

How did your dog gain access to raw eggs in a box? Anyway.....Raw eggs and shells are good for them. The box may cause a bit of a problem....Maybe you could store cardboard egg boxes away from your dog in future?

My girl Ioves eggs, she takes them so very gently then nibbles a delicate hole in them to drink the contents before crunching through the shells to clean the last bits up! Good for them, but she's never tried to eat the box! Is yours a lab?!! Grin

How else do you clean up dropped eggs if you don't call your lab?

Every cat I have ever owned loved raw eggs. So did my guinea pigs. They got in a disgusting mess eating them though. Grin

fluffy they were on the side waiting to go in the outside bin and the super sniper got to them when my back was turned!

He's in fine form today anyway and no more smelly farts.
