Greetings!
Welcome back. This November we're looking forward to another season of holidays and celebrations - good times to share with friends and family, especially the furriest ones.
But November is also the time when our New England weather turns frosty. For some of us, that means heavier meals and less time outdoors. Don't forget to monitor your pet's weight this winter. Try to keep up with regular exercise routines and don't even think about tossing that leftover turkey in your pet's bowl. Here's why...
Meanwhile, check out this month's feature on your pet's anatomy.
Happy Thanksgiving!
All the best,

This Thanksgiving, you're not doing your dog any favors by feeding her table scraps. Certain Turkey Day staples are dangerous for pets, so keep an eye on kitchen counters when preparing your holiday meals. And let houseguests know the policy before they're tempted to share any of the following items:
Turkey bones or skin
Onions, garlic, leeks, or scallions
Grapes or raisins
Chocolate desserts
Raw meat
Alcohol
