On Thanksgiving, many of us are inclined to give thanks for our pets by sharing some of our dinner. But which foods are safe, and which are dangerous? Pancreatitis and “garbage intoxication” are very common after the holidays! Protect your pet by making sure only to feed them healthy items, and let your families know as well. Jamie Freyer, DVM and Expert at Veterinarians.org shared her takes with us.
What’s safe for our furry friend?
Green beans (raw)
Carrots (unseasoned)
Lean Turkey (cooked, unseasoned)
Pumpkin
Apples
Corn (do not let them chew on the cob)
Sweet potatoes (No marshmallow)
And what’s on the not-so-nice list?
Bones/fat/skin
Ham
Stuffing
Gravy
Onions
Garlic
Desserts
