So thank you for everyone's help it didn't look normal bc my homemade incubator literally cooked the egg so wether it had or had not been fertilized i don't think I would have ended up with a baby chick next step buy an incubator 🤦 I guess I learned my lesson on that one!!

Could you get a picture?
More than likely it's not developing if you're not seeing any veins. Since your dog brought it home, you don't know now "old" it is.
I will get one tonight I use my phone to candle it so I will need to wait till my husband gets home to take a picture, I am glad I found this group because I'm planning on getting an incubator and more chicken eggs. I tried this before I knew anything so I built my own incubator I'd much rather do this knowing I'm doing it the right way. Thank you.
 
So here are the pictures it got me thinking that what if it isn't a chicken egg bc it was in my dog's mouth so hopefully that is what it is. I'm not sure if other eggs can resemble chicken eggs that would be scary honestly!! Depending on what it was if it isn't.

Most likely a chicken egg, though a duck is possible depending on how big it is. Either way it isn't alive.
