Speak with your vet first about portions appropriate for your dog. A little goes a long way. Too much can cause gastrointestinal issues and other health problems. There are recipes for dog-friendly stuffing, cookies, etc., and you can be as elaborate as you want, just be sure to run it through your vet! Here is a brief overview of what they can have:
We touched base about gastrointestinal issues, but it is more than mere tummy issues. Pancreatitis is an awful stomachache. It is so bad that it requires a vet’s attention and it is the reason. DID YOU KNOW? Thanksgiving Day and the day afterward are the busiest days of the YEAR for emergency veterinarian clinics. It's easy to forget our pets have a very different digestive system than we do, especially when we sit down to the table to celebrate. During the holidays you can avoid going to or having to find an ER clinic, the long wait, and the Thank-you tab they give you before you can leave (the bill) by eliminating the table food. What is so wrong with table food you might ask: Two words: Poison & Problems.
If there is any considered error here it is on the side of caution. Don’t forget the turkey bones or the carcass (splinters) and the cooking bag can be dragged from the garbage can. Store carefully. Lastly, a sugar substitute found in over 700 products humans consume from gum to toothpaste and peanut butter is Xylitol. It is deadly for our pets and quick-acting. Faster than many other poisons with less recourse. If your pet is displaying out of the norm behaviors after they may have gotten a hold of people food call the ASPCA Animal Poison Control (888) 426-4435, there may there may be a fee.

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a service dog is allowed to go wherever his companion goes such as restaurants or other businesses where pets are not allowed to go or welcomed. Owners cannot be charged additional fees for their service dog and should never be cross-examined or guilted about their dog. Etiquette: Always ask the companion before you approaching a service dog. The dog is there to do a job, and their focus is ensuring that their companion is safe and providing support. Therapy dogs or emotional support dogs are not classified as service dogs under the law. Working dogs are not service dogs. Faking service dogs is illegal. A vest does not make a service dog. A service dog is not required to wear a certain vest or harness. There are many legitimate types of service dogs. Such as dogs that can detect low blood sugar in diabetics or the onset of a seizure, dogs that improve mobility issues for someone who is wheelchair-bound or blind, and dogs that help with PTSD or other such disorders. Many types of service dogs are not listed here and in the U.S.A. there are more than 500,000 service dogs. The oldest class of service dogs are the guide dogs who assist the visually impaired.
