Thanks for the reminder! I can't tell you how many times I tell my friends, "I'll give that to him at home, thanks!" If it's not identifiable, or not "Made in USA" then my dog doesn't eat it.
We took our fur kids to a Halloween function sponsored to benefit an animal shelter. Someone at one of the booths asked if they could have a biscuit. I thanked them for the offer, but tried to politely decline. I said that they have sensitive stomachs and are on a restricted diet.
People mean well, and I don't want to appear rude when declining an offer of a treat. But in the same breath, I don't want them getting something that will make them sick.
