I used to get great whole smoked beef bones for Zeus and Athena(lab/wolf? & a pure white Sheppard) yrs back from a local feed store. Well feed store went under but a local butcher started smoking sections of leg bones. Not as good but dogs loved them. Sadly both dogs have past on from old age:cry:

I bring this up because we are once again looking about buying a whole cow
and I want to keep some bones for stock and to smoke for Lilly and Loki( Bull Mastiff & I have no clue what Loki is)

So If $$ goes well and I do this, how do I smoke them properly?

If none of this makes sense I blame it on the the cold I can't shake

I have never smoked bones for the dogs.

I do know that cooked bones will splinter and can cause serious problems.

My dog couldn't care less if the bones are smoked or not, he'll go crazy til it's in his mouth anyway. I think the pet store bones are done with liquid smoke. I don't know if the bone will take as much smoke as the marrow. I'd cut the bones into 6" pieces and smoke them at 300 for a couple hours using your favorite wood.
