I was responding to your post, which said that you feed bones to your dog and he hasn't died, and then told us to call up Mythbusters.

The experiment would be to see whether uncooked broken chicken bones are sharper than cooked ones.

And why do we need mythbusters for that?
Quote:
This is because several people seem to have established uncooked bones are safe to feed to dogs.

Uncooked bones *ground up* might be OK, but a whole bone, especially something the size of a chicken bone, still presents a choking hazard.

I wasn't even born in the 60's. What the hell has seatbelts got to do with this thread? Is it some sort of shock tactic?

Shock tactic? No, it's pointing out the fallacy in your arguments. Here's another example for you. "Well I've driven drunk dozens of times and never had an accident. Therefore it must be safe to drive drunk."
The point is that just because you happen to have fed bones to your dog, and your dog happens to have avoided dying, does not mean that it is impossible or even improbable for a dog to die if it eats bones, which is what your argument seems to put forth. I've narrowly avoided serious accidents myself - that doesn't mean that whatever I was doing to get me into that situation is totally safe and that I should do it again.

My dog Calvin doesn't like you by the way. He thinks you're working for a company which manufactures dog food or seatbelts and has a bad attitude.

Um. . .
