Here’s to you and your dogs! At this special time, there’s nothing
like getting together with friends and family to enjoy a special meal and celebrate
the year’s blessings. 

Please beware though, guests are often tempted to sneak treats to Poochie
who’s sitting quietly under the table hopefully awaiting a dropped scrap of food. You of
course know that you should never give your dog bones from the table, your
dinner guests are another matter. Ensure your get-together doesn’t end with a
trip to the vet — inform them that cooked bones, particularly small ones, can
splinter and the shards could cause choking as well as blockage or injury to
your dog’s gastro-intestinal tract. For other reminders of potential hazards to
your furry friend, check out the ASPCA’s
Thanksgiving Safety Tips.  

So that guests won’t be tempted to spoil Bella with human foods, why not whip up a healthy and yummy treat they can give her instead? In just five minutes flat you can prepare these Sweet Potatoe Chews. Featured in our Fall issue, they’re comprised of just a single ingredient, are chock-full of vitamins and are super-healthful while also being great-tasting. Click here for the recipe.

Wishing you a wooftastic Thanksgiving!!
