Hops in cattle feed
I was predisposed to say "no" due to an apparent and known toxicity in dogs, which results in "malignant hyperhermia," the inability to relieve it by panting, and death.
But apparently in the cattle industry, some anyway do not discount its use. From:

"Brewers dried grains is defined (Feed Industry Red Book, 1994) as the dried extracted residue of barley malt alone or in mixture with other cereal grain or grain products resulting frorri the manufacture of wort or beer and may contain pulverized dried spent hops in an amount not to exceed 3%, evenly distributed..."
I have not seen anything else. I would, myself, rather be safe and use only spent grains from the tun than trub and spent hops.
