Pets at Xmas

[Hutch]

Remember ,especially at this time of the year. That a lot of our pets will beg and scavange food a lot of the time, be carefull not to let them have foods like grapes " human chocolate, etc, also too many of the doggy chews, in the shape of slippers ad bones can "gum up" their stomachs, I try to stick to giving our dogs treats like carrots ,my little one is the worst, he will eat almost anything. I dont want vets fees to sort him out through my negligence.
A merry Xmas to all.

The only treats our three will get are raw veg at prep time and maybe a little after lunch turkey.

Had our two, Rex,the Doodle, and Harry the Ratter. Over to Switzeland in October, First time Hary had seen snow but love it, R3x tend to just bury himself in it. Harrys nightmare , so clean , nothing to scavange, and dog rules very tight.

I keep my ( mostly) border collie off Turkey: makes her [strike]fart[/strike] flatulent. Cheese is her favourite treat, but is carefully rationed and absolutely no chocolate.
