| | What Holiday Foods Are Dog-Safe? | The holidays bring delicious feasts, but not everything on your plate is safe for your pup. Here's a guide to holiday foods your dog can enjoy—and the ones they should avoid. | Safe for Dogs: | Plain Turkey: A few bites of cooked, unseasoned turkey (no skin or bones) is a great source of protein. Sweet Potatoes: Serve them plain and cooked—skip the marshmallows and spices. Green Beans: Steamed or boiled without butter or seasoning make a healthy, crunchy treat. Pumpkin: Pure canned pumpkin (not pie filling) is excellent for digestion.
| Dangerous Foods to Avoid: | Stuffing: Often contains onions, garlic, or nutmeg, all toxic to dogs. Gravy: High in fat and often seasoned, it can upset your dog's stomach. Mashed Potatoes: Butter, cream, and seasoning make this a no-go. Desserts: Chocolate, raisins, and anything sweetened with xylitol are highly toxic. Cooked Bones: Turkey or ham bones can splinter and cause choking or digestive issues.
| Tips for a Safe Holiday Meal: | Create a "dog-safe plate" with approved foods to include your pup in the celebration. Keep serving dishes and trash bins out of reach to avoid accidental snacking. Remind guests not to sneak table scraps, no matter how persuasive those puppy eyes get.
| By sharing only safe holiday treats, you can make sure your dog stays healthy and happy this festive season! |

But don't worry—here are some easy ways to keep your dog happy and relaxed so that everyone can enjoy the season. | Create a Safe Space: Before guests arrive, set up a comfy zone just for your dog. Think cozy crate, favorite toys, and maybe even calming music. Introduce this space a little time in advance so your pup knows it's their chill-out zone. | Prep with Training: Brush up on basic commands like "stay" and "no jumping" before the holiday chaos. Bonus points if you practice greeting guests calmly. | The Art of Distraction: Keep your dog busy and happy with treat-stuffed puzzle toys. Freeze peanut butter or plain yogurt inside for a long-lasting distraction while you entertain. | Manage with Baby Gates: Use baby gates to keep your dog in their safe area when the party's in full swing. Guests can enjoy their eggnog without accidentally stressing out your pup. | Plan for Exercise: A tired dog is a happy dog! Schedule a walk or if you are busy, hire a dog walker to burn off extra energy before the festivities begin. | Communicate with Guests: Let your guests know the rules: no sneaky table scraps and no unsupervised kid-dog time. Your pup will thank you later. | Let us know your favorite holiday tips for keeping your pup happy and stress-free! |
