This will lead your pet to get tired and lie down instead of bothering you for food.

Remember that you have your pet’s best interest in mind, so rather than giving in to those longing stares, provide playtime, pets, exercise, or treats (don’t overdo this!) instead.

Giving your dog a special holiday-themed meal is also a good idea.

Some items that are pet-friendly include rice, carrots, green beans and broiled chicken
