Chihuahuas and Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a time for celebrations and gatherings with family and closest of friends . And this, of course, includes the chihuahua family members as well.  Our two little chihuahuas are always a part of the Thanksgiving Day festivities, which starts with special baths, grooming, bows and sometimes the festive holiday sweater.

Our chihuahuas are a big part of our family unit and as we are thankful for those closest to us, we cannot forget them too. Of course, expressing our thankfulness to our dogs should only go so far as sometimes less is more when it comes to their safety. With all the hustle and bustle of decorating and preparing a huge dinner for the holiday, we need to be reminded of the things we need to be cautious of such as keeping foods out of reach that may be dangerous to our pets.  That also applies to the jovial holiday decorations and candles that could be harmful as well.

For chihuahua owners, keep all toxic and dangerous foods, candles and decorations way out of reach from your canine family member.

It is a hectic busy time with food, fun and tons of company. The pets tend to be overlooked amid all the stress and tension of the day in the midst of celebrating. Be prepared before the guests arrive so that it can be a happy and healthy celebration for all, including the precious four-legged family members.
