Can my dog eat an egg every day, and how should it be prepared?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! You could do it perhaps a few times a week but without the shell. I would avoid doing it longterm on a daily basis as it does contain a large amount of cholesterol. Good luck!

Yes, you can make eggs for Hunter if you want to - they're a fairly good, healthy treat as long as you give them in moderation. You can make them scrambled or fried, just make sure to cook the yolk to avoid any risk of salmonella - just like in humans :)

No on the raw eggs. Just like people are not supposed to eat raw eggs. The chances of contracting Salmonella bacteria is very high and that can kill your dog. Not worth it. You can give him cooked eggs if you'd like (no butter, oil or spices). There is really no benefit; it would just be for a treat. All high quality, premium dog foods are balanced (look for the AAFCO statement on the bag) and you really don't need to give extra supplements unless your vet says your dog needs it for some underlying condition. Just feed Diesel a high quality diet like Royal Canin and he will have everything he needs.

You can give a BOILED egg as a treat once in a while. However, if you feed a complete puppy food for large sized dogs, you do not need to feed any eggs. Do not feed raw eggs as this will cause health problems (they contain avidine which causes biotin deficiency which in turn causes problems with your dog's nails and fur.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Raw items especially raw eggs are not recommended for dogs as they can develop infections from that especially Salmonella. If Snow likes eggs, you can cook it before giving it to her. Good luck and have a great night!

While there is nothing harmful in terms of toxicity in adding a raw egg to your dog's food, I do not recommend feeding raw foods to pets as they always add a risk of foodborne illness such as salmonella, not only to your dog but also the humans coming into contact with the dog https://www.fda.gov/forconsumers/ucm403350.htm .

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Eggs are very healthy for dogs (and humans). The yolk is fatty however, so you need to watch how many calories of dog food you are feeding so Peanut doesn’t become overweight. Also, if you are feeding a high quality dog food (like Hills, Purina One, Royal Canin, or Iams) you shouldn’t need to add eggs. Good luck and kisses to Peanut!
