It may be better to keep them away from the Thanksgiving Day food/dining area.

Besides how bad all the table scraps are for dogs, consider the aggression and food fights that break out. Liability issues, if a dog bites another dog or a guest.

Emergency room visits for humans due to dog bites go up this time of year. Emergency vet clinic visits for a variety of GI issues are up also.

Best to keep pets separated from the family festivities, offer a special treat, small piece of boneless turkey meat added to their regular meal, later.
