Are there really supposed to be chicken bones in the Wingaling?
Yes, our whole chicken wings offer tender chicken cooked on the bones and as a result of the cooking process, the bones become soft as well. Feel free to serve whole or break apart the wings and serve as a complete meal.



I thought cooked bones splinter & should NEVER be given to dogs, esp cooked chicken bones?

I asked the owner of a small pet shop we go to about this and she said that the chicken bone in this and in other whole bone canned food (can't remember the brand name), are pressure cooked. When pressure cooked, the bones become very soft and you can take a fork and it will crumble. So no splintering or sharp points. She said she tried it with her dogs and used a spoon to mash it up well and she mixed it in with the rest of the can.
