In my experience (40+ yrs of dog ownership), giving a dog cooked turkey generally is a really, really, bad idea. Particularly in larger dogs, it can cause very bad cases of gas ... trust me, you do NOT want to be in the same county! As with humans, the amount of skin and fats that dogs consume should be limited. A little bit, fine. Just bear in mind that dogs are carnivores, and while many of them will also eats fruits and vegetables, historically dairy and fats have not been part of their diet. Hence the issue with pancreatitis - which also happens in humans.
Raw turkey necks, raw bones with some meat, are all safe for dogs, and frequently form part of a dog's raw food diet. Spoil your pup, yes indeed. Just do it safely, understanding how our food can adversely affect our pets.
