Before you toss Fido a Thanksgiving treat, watch this

Dr. Kasey Sweeney, the veterinarian at Snake River Animal Shelter in Idaho Falls, says sharing holiday leftovers with pets is a bad idea.
In the Pet of the Week video above, Sweeney says sharing food with your pets can make them sick, causing vomiting or diarrhea. Food high in spices, fat, or bones, can be especially obstructive for dogs.
To learn more or see animals available for adoption, stop by the shelter at 3000 Lindsay Boulevard during regular business hours. It’s open from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday. It closes at 5 p.m. on Saturday. You can also visit the website or call (208) 523-4219.
