Just got back from my butcher - picked up 2 bags of beef bones and 1 bag of mutton (that's all they had and did not want to make another trip for a month, if possible). Anyway, are raw sheep's bones ok - not lamb but sheep which means older - are they too hard? Both dogs gnaw contentedly, do not "attack with vengeance."

Amy, I would watch them and see. Since they are not big chewers, you should be fine, I did read that mutton is harder than beef, as long as it has meat and then make sure they are not trying to chomp them down I think you're good. For Miya I probably wouldn't since she enjoys chomping and eating the bone too, or take away after meat was gone, not so easy, but I would.
