The topic of whether German Shepherds can eat eggs is a controversial one in the world of canine health.
Some people believe that eggs in any form, whether raw or cooked, shelled or peeled, are very good for German Shepherds.
Others believe that German Shepherds should not be fed eggs whatsoever, while others think they can as long as the eggs are cooked.
The truth is that German Shepherds can eat eggs.
In most cases, German Shepherds will be able to digest eggs well, especially if they’re cooked.
But there are some considerations you’ll need to keep in mind when deciding whether to feed your German Shepherd eggs, like how much and how often to be feeding them, and how to prepare the eggs.
Understanding the German Shepherd Digestive Tract
Modern dogs are omnivores, meaning they can eat both animal and plant matter, and digest the nutrients of each.
Eggs in any form are pure animal protein, meaning they are on the menu for German Shepherds, at least in theory.
What Are the Best Eggs for German Shepherds to Eat?
The best types of eggs to feed your German Shepherd are also the best eggs for you – whole, organic, natural eggs produced by happy hens in low-stress environments.
What Are the Nutritional Benefits of Eggs for German Shepherds?
Complete animal protein
Amino acids
Several vitamins including Vitamins A and B12
Lots of trace minerals
Essential fatty acids
The Best Way to Feed Eggs to Your German Shepherd
The best way to feed eggs to your German Shepherd is whole, cooked and with the shell still on.
Surprisingly, the shell is actually high in calcium, which is great for your dog’s bones and teeth.
Can German Shepherds Eat Eggs Every Day?
Whether or not your dog can eat eggs on a daily basis depends on your dog’s age, life stage, and the number of eggs you’re feeding.
The main thing to be aware of is that dogs do tend to fart more when eating eggs.
But perhaps the biggest fear that dog owners have revolves around the risks associated with:
Contamination with salmonella, e. Coli, or other bacteria
Added hormones and antibiotics
Other “people food” ingredients that dogs should avoid
Powdered eggs, egg substitutes or egg waste
How Many Eggs Can a German Shepherd Eat Daily?
German Shepherds tend to be more prone to food allergies and sensitivities, so you’ll definitely want to take it slowly if you’re starting to introduce eggs to their diet.
Start with half a hard-boiled egg with the shell on, and wait for 48 hours to see how your dog responds.
If you don’t see anything concerning, try one whole egg.
If all goes well once again, you can start adding eggs to the regular treat rotation for your dog.
However, if you’re adding eggs to your dog’s diet as part of a transition to a partial or complete raw food feeding plan, you’ll want to consult your veterinarian and, ideally, a canine dietitian prior to doing so.
Like raw meat, uncooked eggs can potentially be contaminated with harmful bacteria.
