for processing alcohol so any alcohol-drenched foods, desserts, things like that be mindful of where your pet is at all times. garbage cans, sometimes people use string on the turkey and put it in the garbage can and the dog eats it and it leads to a horrible situation. so just pay attention to your pet. >> good tips. dr. chase, thank you so much. if you have a question about your pet's health and well- being, we want to hear from you. just just email us at pets@kpix.com and we'll have our pet expert give you an answer every friday right here at noon. we'll be right back.
