Dog owners should not feed their canines raw chicken after researchers discovered a link between the uncooked meat and a form of dog paralysis.

Dogs that eat raw chicken meat, especially chicken necks, have an increased risk of developing the potentially fatal form of dog paralysis, known as acute polyradiculoneuritis (APN).
