How to Maintain Pets on Thanksgiving

Video Transcript

"Hello. I'm Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you today how to survive a big family Thanksgiving. And then there are the topics of pets. Pets can be very stressed on Thanksgiving and definitely deserve the same attention that humans do, right girls? Anyway, there are a couple of issues about pets. First of all, making sure they have a nice place to hide so they are not stressed out and you are not stressed out by them whining or otherwise making mistakes in the house because they are so upset. That's just not fun, right? Anyway, another thing with pets is allergies. Is anyone coming to your Thanksgiving dinner allergic to pets in any way, shape or form. Because if they are, I mean, that's just not good. That's not good at all. That's even if you have anything from a Dachshund to a Doberman pinscher. That's not a good situation. They are going to be stuffed up, they are going to get congested and that's not going to be good at all. Also, related to allergies, but not related to you two is making sure that you are not serving anything that could make somebody have an allergic reaction. That would not be good at all. Every single year, you read about somebody who has a strange reaction, who is allergic to peanuts but didn't think to mention it and peanuts where used in the stuffing mix. So make sure that you are aware if you are going to a Thanksgiving dinner, let the chef know. Or, if you are the chef, that you've asked of your guests. So, yeah, keep in mind allergies and what to do with the little doggies and kitties in your life. "
