A Quick Dog-Friendly Guide to Thanksgiving ๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ
The holidays are a wonderful time spent with friends, family, and, of course, our beloved dogs! ๐พ
Each year during the Holidays, especially Thanksgiving, there is an uptick of cases of Pancreatitis, GI Upset, and Blockages seen by Emergency Vets. These can be life-threatening for your 4-legged friend, and quiet expensive for you, too.
With all of the hustle and bustle of the holidays, we cannot forget about our dogโs basic needs. Exercising them both mentally and physically before people come over will help them relax and be calmer. They need close supervision, especially if theyโre prone to Counter Surfing. If you cannot directly supervise your pup, the safest option is for them to be on Place or in their Crate.
Just in case, because life happens, please make sure you know the address and phone number for your nearest Emergency Vet, be patient, and expect longer than usual wait times. Your pet is important to them, but they have more than just your pet to save simultaneously!
