Happy 11th Birthday to the Sarge! For today's tip I'm re-posting this information about what Thanksgiving foods are ok (and not ok) to give your dog - originally posted 11/2019:
I got an email from the AKC with this info about what foods you can and cannot give your dog at Thanksgiving that I think is very helpful - we try to not give Sarge people food but I have given him a bite of these allowed foods on occasion. Funny, this list also looks like a practical list of foods we should be eating and what to avoid too! But I'm not giving up the gravy so....;)
These food are ok as long as they have no added ingredients (dairy, spices, sugar, salt, etc. - keep them plain)
- sweet potatoes
- potatoes
- apples (don't let them have the seeds tho)
- turkey meat (unseasoned, no bones or skin)
- green beans and peas
- pumpkin (not pie-spiced)
- no dessert other than something healthy like a little frozen yogurt.
Below are the items Dr. Richter, Dr. Ochoa, Dr. Klein, and the AVMA caution should NOT be served to dogs at this year’s Thanksgiving feast, due to unsafe or unhealthy ingredients:
- Turkey bones, skin, and gravy
- Stuffing
- Casseroles
- Mashed potatoes
- Creamed peas
- Chocolate, cookies, pies, and sweets (especially anything containing xylitol)
- Alcoholic beverages
- Raisins and grapes
- Onions, scallions, and garlic
- Ham
- Yeast dough
- Fatty foods
- Foods containing spices
