Why don’t you go and enjoy a peaceful walk in the park with a furry friend and then sit together for a nice meal? Here is a helpful feeding tip for you. Pumpkins are a wonderful food for dog-people when safely prepared. They are abundant in fiber, vitamins, and minerals that assist with digestion, blood sugar regulation, and promote anal gland health. However, pumpkins should be consumed in moderation. Plain, cooked or 100% canned pumpkins with no added ingredients are good options. Steer clear of feeding canine-people raw pumpkin, which can result in digestive issues, and pumpkin pie filling or seasoned pumpkin since these may contain ingredients such as cinnamon, nutmeg or xylitol which are toxic for dog-people. If it’s your dog-companion’s first time eating pumpkin, begin slowly and give them a little at a time, monitoring for any reactions such as vomiting or diarrhea. You can also try mixing a little with their kibble or other favorite food, so they develop a liking for the flavor. If they don’t have issues with it, you can build up to the recommended serving sizes.
Now let’s share a little lightness with the joke of the day. It’s called “The Art of Listening.”
Charlie complains to his mom about their dog companion, Penny.
“Mom, why does Penny never listen to me? I’ve been taking care of her for five years!”
“Well, I’ve been taking care of you for 15 years, and do you ever listen to me?”
?!
