San Andreas, CA…It’s fine to share some of the Thanksgiving bounty with your beloved pets (hey, we do it too!), but keep in mind that they have special needs when it comes to edibles. A little bit of deliciousness goes a long way.

Prevent a late-night trip to the emergency vet by using common sense. Avoid giving your four-legged friends rich, fatty tidbits (turkey skin, gravy) and always say no to cooked bones.

In an emergency, seek advice from your veterinarian or a reputable pet poison control hotline.
