Why don't the dogs eat bones?

[Mathenaut]

Wouldn't that be like... the one thing for dogs to be able to do? Would help with the cleanup in some places too.

Dogs generally don't eat bones,  they chew them, and chew off small bits of meat left,  while sharpening teeth.

Its not food,  its a habit

[Nictis]

Dogs do eat bones, but only once.
