The holidays are great, it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Everyone comes together and celebrates. We often include our furbabies in our festivities but there are a lot of things our pets cannot do that we can. Even as Vet Techs, we are guilty of this sometimes, but in the episode Shena and I even teach each other a few new bits of information about pet food safety. If you are a pet parent you definitely need to give this a listen before Christmas rolls around. Article: People Foods to Avoid Feeding Your Pet from Veterinary Partner.
