Yes, plain cooked lean beef is safe and a good source of protein for dogs. Ensure it's completely free of seasonings, sauces, and any cooked bones, which can splinter and cause internal injuries. Offer only a small amount relative to your dog's regular diet to avoid an upset stomach. If you notice any digestive issues after feeding, it's best to check in with your veterinarian.
