Happy Thanksgiving! We will be closed starting today (11/27/24) at 12pm and we will re-open Friday (11/29/24) at 10am. Please have a safe and blessed holiday!

While it’s tempting to share your food with pets this Thanksgiving, table scraps can lead to health issues—think upset stomachs, obesity, or even toxic reactions from common ingredients. Instead, consider pet-safe treats, and keep holiday dishes out of paws' reach! Learn more about safe feeding practices to keep your pet happy and healthy.

Knowing what not to feed dogs and other pets can save your dog from health complications, so it's best to know how your table scraps can be a risky treat.
