Minerals for goats and dogs eating it

I put out free choice minerals for goats, but occasionally my GP have access to the areas where the salts are. If they occasionally eat from these will they harm my dogs? I have to put them on the ground in a pot right now and that is how the dogs are able to get to them. They will be up off the ground in a feeder on the wall in time but not right now sooo, if my dogs eat some will I be harming them?

my chickens like to eat the salt block I have out for the goats, I've wondered the same about them

Just for clarity, my minerals are loose and have the extra copper for goats.

So long as they are just eating a bit here and there, I think it would be ok, probably good for them.
