We all know that holiday seasons can get hectic with parties, family gatherings, and events happening more often than usual! While it is wonderful to have time to spend with our loved ones, we can’t forget to pet safety during thanksgiving as well. During Thanksgiving festivities, it is important to consider how we can keep our pets calm and safe so that hopefully, we can get a chance to relax ourselves!
Calm Environments for Pet Safety during Thanksgiving
Many pets are sensitive to changes in their routines and environment. A sudden influx of strangers and guests in the house along with a flurry of activity can make any pet run for cover! The best thing to do is give them a nice area where they can escape from all the overstimulating noises and smells of a Thanksgiving get-together. A spare bedroom, bathroom, or kennel away from the excitement can serve as a relaxing space for them.
Some things that you can include in these spaces are:
- Food, water, litterbox
- Their bed, kennel, or lots of soft blankets
- Low lighting
- Enrichment including scratching posts, puzzle toys, chew toys, hidden treats, etc.
- Soothing sounds such as comforting music made for pets or a white noise machine
- Relaxing scents (only use products made and approved for pets, of course!)
- Plenty of potty breaks and visits
Foods to Avoid During Thanksgiving
To keep your pet safe from, ensure that food is kept covered and inaccessible for your little one. And if you have a furkiddo who likes to get into the garbage, make sure the scraps from dinner are promptly taken out! There are many ingredients featured in a Thanksgiving dinner that can cause bad reactions in dogs and cats.
Examples of these are:
- Garlic, Onion, and Chives: From the Allium plant family, a common cause of canine poisonings.
- Turkey Bones: Even if cooked, these bones can splinter into fragments and cause damage to the esophagus, stomach, or intestines. These types of internal injuries can become quite serious.
- Nuts: The high levels of oils and fats in different types of nuts may not be tolerated by pets. Macadamia nuts, in particular, can cause very uncomfortable symptoms like vomiting and tremors.
- Chocolate: Contains methylxanthines, substances that can lead to toxicosis for pets.
- Milk or Dairy-Based Products: Lactose must be broken down by enzymes called lactase, and our pets do not produce enough of this protein to properly digest dairy products.
- Alcohol: Alcohol cannot be metabolized by dogs or cats, leading to poisoning with relatively small amounts. If a pet ingests any amount of alcohol, please contact your veterinarian or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center for immediate assistance.
Pet-Friendly Thanksgiving Treats
While we are keeping our pets away from the festive family meal, there are still plenty of safe treats they can be given to be included in the Thanksgiving tradition! A few seasonal vegetables that are safe for pets to eat (and also quite tasty) include pumpkin, sweet potato, and carrot – so long as they are fully cooked and have been prepared without seasoning, salt, butter, or oils. Your pet will love it just plain!
Additionally, check out some of our easy, homemade recipes for treats such as our No-Bake Pumpkin Dog Treat, Turkey Patties and Pumpkin Pie Tarts, or our Sweet Potato Mash!
NHV Supplements to Ease Holiday Stress
One final way to reduce stress levels and keep pets calm is to use our supplements. For example, you may use Lesstress for a dog or Matricalm for a cat. Both of these formulas contain chamomile, passion flower, and lemon balm – ingredients that may help with relaxation and reduce anxiety and excitability.
Both of these formulas contain chamomile, passion flower, and lemon balm
Additionally, Lesstress contains Eleuthro which may improve resistance to stress, as well as Reishi mushroom and Echinacea Angustifolia for immune support. Meanwhile, Matricalm contains Valerian root and Hops to help the immune system and improve sleep quality.
Remember: it can take time for our pets’ systems to adjust and respond to the herbs. Therefore, it may be helpful to start giving the supplement a couple of weeks before the Thanksgiving festivities. Sometimes, it can take a few weeks of consistent use before we start to see the herbal benefits.
We hope these products will help reduce stress for both you and your furbabies, allowing you to
fully enjoy the holiday! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Pet

Natural Dog Stress Reliever Supplemental Support
With a heightened sense of hearing and smell, small events that seem mundane to us can be terrifying and stressful for your dogs. Sometimes the stress is from the ride to the office, or maybe they are missing their human companions. This all contributes to changes in behavior like excessive panting, drooling, sweaty paws, dilated eyes, pacing, excessively shedding, or just completely shutting down. Some dogs become so stressed that it may lead to fear and aggression.
Other forms of stress in a dog’s life include:
- Working dogs that are pushed too hard
- Flying on a plane
- Special events (eg. fireworks)
- Staying in a shelter
- The loss of an owner
- The loss or addition of a furry playmate
- Going to a new home
- Moving
In addition to panting, excessive barking/whining, chewing on themselves, shivering (when it’s not cold), panicked tail wagging, or tense muscles, stress can also cause GI tract issues such as diarrhea or vomiting.
The key to a healthy pup is balance. Too much or too little activity can be harmful, as well as too much or too little socialization. A balanced, clean diet also helps maintain the body and the mind. If your dog is susceptible to stress, you can use calming herbs like those found in NHV Lesstress. This formulation gently acts on the nervous system and immune system to provide a natural dog stress reliever.
How NHV’s Natural Dog Stress Relief Eases Stress and Anxiety
For stressful experiences such as separation anxiety, the loss or addition of a furry friend, special events (eg. fireworks) and illness (stress can cause conditions to worsen), the natural (non-addictive) sedative properties of Lesstress gently relax the nervous system and endocrine system. Ingredients like Chamomile, Passion Flower and Lemon Balm work to calm nerves while ingredients like Reishi, Eleuthero, and Echinacea Angustifolia are very beneficial for helping the body adapt to stress and illness and stimulate healthy immune function.
Help Support Your Dog Naturally
All NHV supplements like Lesstress are 100% natural and created by a holistic veterinarian and a master herbalist, specially formulated for pets. Feel free to contact our veterinary professionals to get more insight into your little one’s health and wellbeing.

Holistic Support and Pet Supplements for the Holidays
'Tis the season you say! Of course, the holidays are a time to celebrate, but with family dinners and get-togethers just around the corner, changes in your pet's daily routine can cause a lot of stress and anxiety. Hanging wires or seasonal decorations can entice your pet's curiosity, and they may gobble up something they weren't supposed to from the kitchen! Bringing home new plants like belladonna, mistletoe, or holly may be toxic to your pets, and may cause an upset tummy resulting in diarrhea from a few casual nibbles. We recommend creating safe spaces for your little one to relax, play and retreat to when the festivities become too much for them. If you're low on space, just opening up a few closets or having a few boxes with blankets or soft bedding inside will do wonders for your pet's mental wellbeing. For added support, we recommend our Holiday Essentials Kit that contains Matricalm (natural stress relief), Plantaeris (diarrhea support) and Yucca (anti-inflammatory and appetite support).
How the NHV Holiday Essentials Kit Supports A Relaxed Pet
With the new faces and changes, your dog, cat or pet’s heart rate and blood pressure may increase, and they may become irritated, excitable, and stressed. These symptoms may cause digestive upset and aggressive behavior. Matricalm contains five calming herbs that may help relax the nervous system, improve digestion and discourage aggressive or anxious behavior.
Dogs and cats of all ages can have very sensitive GI tracts (especially our feline friends), so if they accidentally munch on mistletoe, an ornament, chocolate or an edible arrangement, they will likely get an upset tummy and possibly diarrhea. Plantaeris is a gentle, fast-acting diarrhea remedy that contains herbs like barberry and mullein which help to relax muscle cramping and encourage digestion. Some foods, like chocolate, and plants can be toxic, please see an emergency vet right away if your pet has ingested toxic foods/plants.
Yucca is a nutritive superfood (rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein) and contains beneficial properties that help support the absorption of nutrients. Yucca also helps with overall digestive discomfort, and can even help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some pets.
MATRICALM
- Support for stress, anxiety, and aggressive behavior
- May help increase feelings of relaxation
- Safe for dogs and cats of all ages
- All-natural & vet-approved
- May help reduce excitability
PLANTAERIS
- A natural diarrhea remedy that works gently and quickly
- Promotes healthy bowel movements
- May improve digestive health
- Glycerin-based (sweet taste is palatable for pets)
YUCCA
- Support for inflammation in muscles, and joints in pets
- May improve absorption and improve appetite
- Rich source of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements (superfood)
- Promotes healthy GI functions
