Most people know what foods are not good for dogs on Thanksgiving, although I will list them later in this post. However I know there is a large group of people who just want their dog to be able to partake in the festivities.
Foods that you can consider giving to your dog (in small amounts) are:
white meat turkey without skin, fat, or bones
Apples (can be roasted and core removed), avoid ones from an apple pie with seasonings
Sweet potato or regular potatoes, without seasoning or butter
Steamed carrots and string beans
Pumpkin puree without seasoning
For desert consider purchasing dog safe Ice Cream. Pupsicles are a great option as they will keep your dog occupied while you eat as well!
I wouldn't be a good vet if I didn't warn you about the foods not to feed your dogs. Also remember to seal your garbage tightly or put it in a place that your dog cannot get into it. Pancreatitis, which can become lethal, is commonly seen in all veterinary hospitals the days following Thanksgiving. Keep your dogs safe and avoid the following foods:
Turkey bones, skin, fat, gravy
Mashed potatoes
chocolate
Anything with onions, garlic, or scallions
Anything with raisins or grapes
Ham
any fatty foods
