I know it’s very tempting to sneak your dog some table scraps during a holiday dinner. Your kids will follow your lead so it’s important that you instruct them not to give “fido” any scraps because they could possible harm him. When animals eat fatty foods, it can make their stomachs upset. Make sure that you teach your kids that your pet can only eat certain food and that the proper pet food is best. Dogs love turkey, chicken, and steak bones, but bones can splinter and puncture the digestive tract. Make sure that your children know to throw all scraps in the garbage! Have a happy and safe holiday with your best friend!

Remember, your pets count!
