Wishing you all a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!

Today will be a busy and delicious food-filled day for you and your family/friends. And among all that food and activity there will most certainly be some beautiful, begging eyes from your four-legged friends. 😉🐶

Here are some foods that are okay to treat your dog today, in moderation:

✅ Turkey meat (no bones or skin)
✅ Plain potatoes or sweet potatoes
✅ Plain pumpkin (no pumpkin pie or pie filling)
✅ Plain peas
✅ Apples (coreless, seedless)

Also remember that a house filled with people can become overwhelming. Make sure to have a safe, quiet space for your pets to get away from the hustle and bustle.
