Expert Answer

Raw eggs may contain bacteria such as Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus, which are harmful to both humans and animals. A dog that eats contaminated eggs may get diarrhea or vomiting, and serious cases can lead to other health problems.

If you choose to feed eggs, ensure their source and quality; use pasteurized, inspected raw eggs, or cook the eggs before feeding. Eggs are also high in cholesterol and hard to digest, so feed them only in moderation.
