Thanksgiving foods your dog can eat and which ones to avoid
While your furry friend maybe begging for food at the Thanksgiving table, that doesn’t mean they should eat it.

Consumption of ingredients like xylitol, avocado, onion, garlic and dairy products can lead to liver failure, vomiting, breathing problems and, at times, even death, according to the American Kennel Club.
