I'm afraid my dog will be having the same as she always does: dog food.

I probably won't be cooking anything special for me either.

He'll have a bit of our chicken and vegetables, and probably a couple of extra tasty chews or kongs.

My family can be relied upon to sneak an unreasonable quantity of food under the table during dinner, so I think he's having what we're having!

Her normal dinner, but with a bit of the christmas duck on top. Maybe a few bits of the duck giblets on boxing day.

I'd really not have to deal with the potential consequences of a sudden one-off change in her diet over the festive period.

Mine all get a plate of Christmas dinner, including the cats. The dogs are the only ones who eat the sprouts.

Yes my family are always sneaking hinlm food so this time he will have his own so doesn't be a ganit under the table.

He tends to be okay with dietary changes as long as its all boiled blandish

Eric and Bella will get turkey, a pig in blanket and raw carrot and sprouts because they don't like veg cooked.

Dog food as human food has an unfortunate habit of representing itself later in the day.

My dog will be having his usual food, any changes will manifest themselves in a most unpleasant way at some ungodly hour in the middle of the night.

I might get mine a raw turkey leg.

Watch out for a big smelly mess which happened every Boxing Day after our dog got given leftovers including broccoli and sprouts Confused

Turkey, pigs in blankets, mash and roast potato, peas, carrots and gravy. My dog happily eats small amounts of our left overs with no ill effects- don't think I'll try him on the sprouts though.

I've got him doggy mince pies as part of his Christmas present.

Be careful if this is your dog’s first Christmas. We had a dog with a cast iron digestion, she could eat anything without harm, but the least bit of turkey gave her terrible diarrhoea while we had a houseful of family staying.

Nope. Same old for my lot.

Scrambled egg and smoked salmon for breakfast - turkey and pigs in blankets later. (In fairness these will be tiny amounts with her normal food).
She will not be having sprouts - her windy smells are bad enough!

Ours have got a tin of Lily’s Kitchen too @Eifla and the cat DID have a tray of it as well...until the big dog decided he liked the look of it!

We get butternut box for ours and they've included a Christmas dinner 😁

She'll also get a bit of beef and a new beef bone.
