Can dogs eat Goat horn?

Overview

Caution. Goat horn can be a good chew treat for dental health while providing mental stimulation for dogs. However, they're not suitable for puppies, seniors, or dogs with dental issues due to their hardness. Choose the right size goat horn for your dog's chewing style.

Benefits

Dogs can chew on goat horns as an occasional treat. Chewing on goat horns scrapes away plaque and tartar buildup, which promotes healthier canine teeth and gums.
Goat horns are durable dog chew treats that can be given to aggressive chewers. The enzymes in the dog's saliva help soften the edges so they are less likely to break off or splinter into large shards.
Chewing on goat horns promotes mental stimulation, prevents boredom, and eases anxiety.

Risks

Goat horns are not suitable for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with dental problems as chewing on the hard texture can break their teeth. They can benefit more on age-appropriate soft chew toys or treats.

Servings

Choose a goat horn that's appropriate for your dog's size and chewing habits. Supervise your dog while he's chewing on the goat horn.
Limit the chewing session and don't allow your dog to chew for more than 10 minutes at a time.
