Thanksgiving with Your Corgi: Tips for a Safe, Fun & Cozy Holiday

Common Thanksgiving Hazards for Your Corgi

While the holiday is festive for humans, it can be risky for pets. Here are a few things to watch out for:

🍗 Toxic Foods

Traditional Thanksgiving dishes like seasoned turkey, gravy, onions, garlic, grapes, and chocolate are dangerous for dogs. Even table scraps can lead to upset stomachs or worse.

🎃 Hazardous Decorations

Fake leaves, candles, and plastic pumpkins are tempting chew toys for Corgis — and potential choking hazards.

🚪 Too Many Guests = Stress

If your home is full of visitors, your Corgi may become anxious or overstimulated. Loud noise and new faces can be overwhelming.

Keeping your Corgi calm and secure is easier than you think. Follow these tips:
