To prevent your dog from begging or searching for dropped food, give them their own special holiday treat. A puzzle toy filled with peanut butter (xylitol-free!), a new chew toy, or a long-lasting dental chew can keep them happily occupied while you enjoy your meal.

In my personal experience, using puzzle feeders for every single meal can inadvertently cause puppies to eat more frantically and increase the likelihood of resource guarding. We look at a better approach: helping puppies feel absolutely secure about their food supply. Learn the simple rule that builds food confidence.

Who would have thought that a little slime in the bottom of your pet’s water dish could cause big trouble? Well, it can cause all sorts of dangerous health issues.
