RICH FOODS: 
Each year veterinarians are challenged to save the life of pets from PANCREATITIS after the pet has been fed or gotten into rich fatty foods, i.e. turkey, skin, pies, etc.   Both pancreatitis and Bloat can be deadly to your pets. Please be sure your dog is safe from such harm.

BONES: 
Turkey, duck, chicken, venison are all apt to have dangerous bones involved in the preparation.   Bones can perforate a pet's gut and cause severe illness and death.   Handle foods carefully, and dispose of way out of the reach of pets.

CHOCOLATE: 
Holidays tend to include sweets that are dangerous to all our pets.  Chocolate especially is highly dangerous to our dogs because of the content 'theobromine'.

CHILD SAFETY: 
With extra guests in our homes .. and so much food around, some dogs are going to become both tired and overstimulated by the smell of food.  This may lead to being less tolerant of children, whether from their own family or child guests.
