Thanksgiving is all about good food and gratitude, but some household favorites aren’t safe for pets.

🚫 Do not share: turkey bones, onions, garlic, grapes/raisins, chocolate, ham/ham bones, gravy, alcohol, and rich or fatty foods. Also, keep an eye out for any products containing xylitol!

✅ Safer treats: a small taste of plain turkey (no skin, no seasoning) or plain veggies like green beans and carrots (no seasoning, butter, onions or garlic).

Our pets come in all shapes and sizes, but how can we tell if that shape is healthy or not?
Ideally:
❧You can easily feel their bones when hugging them around the middle and you can feel fat too
❧Their waist is visible when looking down at them

The Association for Pet Obesity Prevention created these diagrams to help to evaluate your pet’s body shape at home ⬇️ ​
