holidays and safe homecooked foods?

This is the place to share your best homemade dog food and treat recipes with each other! Remember to use caution if your pet has allergies and to make any diet changes gradually so that your dog's stomach can adjust to the new foods you are introducing.

	On Thanksgiving the hounds get their only home cooked meal of the year! They get cooked turkey (no skin), dressing (no onions), mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans (no onions), a bit of cranberry sauce, and special pumpkin pie that I make for them! Once a year doesn't hurt them, especially since they get raw the other 364 days of the year They get a few scraps on Christmas, but not an entire meal like on Thanksgiving!

	Mine each get their own plate, similar to HoB +3, but with white potatoes, too. And of course, their favorite, whipped cream without sugar!

	Dr. Watson, I believe my hounds actually enjoy Thanksgiving more than Christmas! After the humans finish eating Thanksgiving lunch, the hounds all get their plates! After they finish they all conk out and sleep for a couple of hours while the humans put up the outdoor Christmas decorations

	My dogs won't touch cranberry sauce! But I like the idea of white potatoes and no sugar whipped cream and may serve that for them! Mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes wouldn't be good...I put ALOT of bad things in them that are yummmmy Maybe before I put them in I can save some aside.

	Our mashed potatoes just have butter, sour cream, and milk... not exactly healthy, but a little won't hurt

	Mine gets cooked chicken and a little bit of baked ham (not too much because it's salty.) Also cooked pork. As a matter of fact we pretty much forget the raw over the x-mas break. My relatives will be poking food into him from all angles.
