My dogs are fond of eating meaty bones. I think I need to make another experiment since meaty bones are more expensive than chicken meats. I searched about chicken being a great source of minerals. In my research, I learned about a raw dog food that can be the best alternative for beefs. The chicken necks which are often rejected in the market are great sources of minerals, too. My dogs would find it exciting to chew the bony parts of chicken during their meals. Aside from being sources of minerals, chicken necks help improve the teeth and gums of dogs. They are also the best alternative for treats. Chicken necks can be best purchased when frozen. Like beef, the chicken necks are rich in protein which is very vital in the growing and repairing of cells. Now, I could feed my dogs without thinking much of expenses. Thanks for the chicken necks.
