Raw Eggs for Coat Health?

Raw Eggs - A No-Go

You might have heard or read that giving your dogs raw eggs help make their coats healthy and shiny. We here at River's Edge don't recommend that. Why? Because it can make your dog sick.

Like people, dogs can get sick from eating raw eggs. The most common culprit is salmonella which can cause upset stomach, diarrhea, and vomiting in your dog.

If you are looking to improve your dog's coat, we recommend buying what are known as snip tips. They are capsules full of Omega-3 fatty acids that are specially formulated for dogs.

You can buy snip tips from our online pharmacy by clicking here.
