Turkey Day!

No agility class this week - it's Thanksgiving!

With all the leftovers and table scraps available at most Turkey Day dinners, it's probably a good time to remind people what they shouldn't give dogs to eat. Almost everyone knows not to feed chocolate to dogs. Here are some of the less obvious:
  • Bones from fish, poultry (Bones, especially turkey/chicken bones, can shatter and cause obstruction)
  • Raisins (if you include it in your stuffing)
  • Onion or Onion Powder
  • Macadamia Nuts
  • Yeast Dough
  • Xylitol (Artificial Sweeteners)
Of course, the list expands if your dog has specific allergies. Do a search for more information. Keep those dogs healthy and active!
