Keep These Thanksgiving Foods Away From Your Pets – The Weather Channel

It’s hard for us humans to resist all the tempting dishes on a Thanksgiving table, and it’s just as hard for some of us to resist sharing the deliciousness with our pets.
However, much of our holiday feast can be downright dangerous for dogs and cats, so let’s dig into the Thanksgiving foods you should avoid giving to your four-legged family members.
While plain turkey and mashed potatoes are just fine for your furry friends, all the seasonings and spices we usually add to those dishes aren’t good for pets.
Onions, garlic, chives and other related vegetables can be toxic for dogs and it doesn’t matter if they’re raw or cooked. Hours after eating them, your dog could be left with symptoms like vomiting and diarrhea.
Keep those unbaked dinner rolls out of reach; the yeast in the dough can keep rising in a dog’s stomach, causing painful bloating and even potential ruptures. The Morris Animal Foundation also points out that the rising yeast produces ethanol and carbon dioxide, which can cause alcohol poisoning.
