"Dog-Friendly Thanksgiving: Avoid These Leftovers for a Safe Holiday"

While it may be tempting to share Thanksgiving leftovers with your dog, it's important to be cautious as certain foods can be harmful to their health. Safe options include plain boiled or baked potatoes, fresh apples (without the core), plain turkey meat, green beans, peas, and pure pumpkin puree. However, foods like turkey bones, skin, gravy, chocolate, cookies, pies, sweets, mashed potatoes, creamed peas, foods with spices, raisins, ham, and rich gravies should be avoided as they can be toxic or cause digestive issues. It's crucial to properly dispose of dangerous foods and consult a veterinarian if your dog consumes something concerning.
