Thanksgiving

Can dogs eat turkey?

A little plain turkey, yes. Most of what comes with it, no.

Safe

Plain, skinless breast meat

A few boneless, unseasoned bites are fine for most healthy dogs.

Never

Cooked bones splinter

They can choke, block or puncture the gut. Take the carcass straight to a lidded bin.

Skip it

Stuffing and gravy hide onion

Onion and garlic damage red blood cells. Fatty skin and drippings can trigger pancreatitis.

Dog plate

Turkey breast plus plain veg

Green beans, carrots and plain pumpkin make a safe holiday treat.
