Thanksgiving Do's and Dont's for your Pets!

 posted: 11-25-2020

We would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving Holiday. Here are some tips to keep your pet safe!

Don’ts

• Don’t let guests feed your pet scraps

• Avoid giving your pet turkey bones and skin

• Avoid giving your pet anything with fresh onion, garlic, raisins, or grapes--some of these are found in stuffing

• Never give your pet alcohol

• Don’t give your pet products with Xylitol, an artificial sweetener--make sure cranberry sauce does not have this

Do’s

• Do keep your pet in another room while cooking dinner

• Do remove all food refuse from your home so your pet can’t raid the garbage

• Do give your pet lean, skinless white turkey meat

• Do give your pet vegetables such as green beans (but not the green bean casserole!)

• Do have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday and be thankful for the love your pet brings to you every year.
