Is it safe for my puppy to eat a boiled egg and drink milk daily?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Murphy. I do not recommend feeding him an egg every day. An egg is actually a fair amount of calories for a puppy. It will likely fill him up and he will eat less dog food. It could also lead to unnecessary weight gain. His puppy food is appropriately formulated for his growth and development. I hope this information helps!

No, you should not do that as it would alter the nutritional composition of your dog's food. You should feed a good quality complete puppy food for large dogs. This would be proper food that provides your dog with everything he needs. You can give a boiled egg once in a while as a treat but not as a regular supplement with his feed.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If he tolerated it well, this may be ok, However, this should only be used to supplement his regular diet more as a snack to be given every once in a while as opposed to using it mainly as a complete diet. He is also super handsome! Good luck!

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.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Goodness Paddy is super cute! I would cut out the egg. We want growing puppies to eat the puppy food and get the nutrients they need. Dogs are smart and will pick out the parts they want. If you want to add egg to the diet do it less often (1-2 times per week). I think 3 times a day feeding is as much as you should do and I would only do it until 12-14 weeks of age then do twice s day feeding. From your pictures he looks to be a healthy weight. You can add water or a little bit of canned puppy food to the dry to encourage him to eat it. He also may not need as much as you are offering. The bag is good place to find out how much to feed but if the puppy is to think give more or too fat give less. I wish you all the best!

You can give Jerry the whole boiled egg, just make sure there is no shell. He can have it as an occasional treat, no more than one once or twice a week. The majority of his diet should be his puppy food.

I would not give him a whole egg as that may be too rich for him but a quarter of a boiled egg should be ok but every pet is different. Watch him though for any signs of diarrhea or upset stomach. I do advise to not get in the habit of giving a lot of human foods or it can make Zorro a finicky eater.
