I was thinking the bone might help clean her teeth, I dunno lol.

It is way easier to feed mostly Raw Meaty Bones, which is a bone (edible, which beef bones are not) covered in a good amount of meat. Preferably so that you can just barely feel the bone, such as in a chicken quarter. Much of the raw meaty bones I feed are from fowl - chicken, turkey, goose, & duck. Red meats (beef and lamb) are usually fed as a muscle meat meal. I feed pork pretty often as well, but the only pork RMB's I feed to speak of are ribs, shoulder and hock. I only use beef bones (soup bones) for recreational chewing, which is a few times a month at most, because they are not largely edible and too much gnawing on rec bones can be hard on the teeth.

Neither of my dogs have been sick due to Raw. Fozzie has actually never been sick, even though I definitely was not overly cautious about introducing new kinds of meat, and he went almost straight from kibble to Raw when I got him.
