Photographer Helps Pups Get Adopted
Rachel Rogers (@trailsandbears) uses her photography skills to help feature dogs who are waiting for someone to adopt them. She is a volunteer dog walker and takes these adoptable pups out on trails and hikes and snaps some adorable photos to help boost their profiles. She started doing this years ago, and it became so popular. Now, she volunteers with over 30 rescues, mostly in Canada, and has taken more than 300 dogs for adventures. 

The mission of each photo shoot is to showcase the dog's personality. Every weird dog has a weird human out there just waiting to bring them home. Follow her Instagram account to see more of these photos.

Dog of the Day: Meet Molly
Thanks to our reader, Jen, for sending this photo of Molly. She's a nine-and-a-half-year-old bulldog from Minnesota, and she has been counting down the days until the holiday season kicks off. Molly has two human brothers, so she loves the time of year when there is wrapping paper to play with and lots of extra snuggles. Hopefully, she's been very nice this year.

Should Your Dog Get Turkey on Thanksgiving?
With many family gatherings and meals on the calendar this time of year, you might wonder if it's safe to share a little bite of turkey with your dog. It's important to be careful before sharing any food scraps with your dog, however. 

Turkey that is cooked plainly and without skin and bones is safe for dogs. Many food brands and treats use this as a main ingredient. But the turkey you serve your family on Thanksgiving is likely not plain. The stuffing inside can contain dangerous ingredients like onions, garlic, and certain spices. 

If you want to share a small piece of meat with your dog, ensure there are no bones or skin and that it isn't touching any other items, like gravy or stuffing. To play it safe, make something special for your dog that is completely safe and keep the people's food on the table.
