New photo Dog owners are warned NOT to feed mince pies to their four-legged friends

Dog owners are being warned to avoid feeding their pets mince pies this festive period.

The warning, issued by Pride Veterinary Centre in Derby, came after a facility was left treating a Belgian Shepherd for food poisoning earlier this month.

While the festive period can be a particularly exciting time for the four-legged animals, owners are being encouraged to keep a watchful eye over their pets.

Owner Pauline Warren, from Swadlincote, had to call for advice after the one-year-old Mickey ate the festive desert this month.

The one-year-old canine ate the mine pie and was later kept at the vets over the weekend

This month, owner Pauline Warren, from Swadlincote, had to call for her vet for advice after one-year-old Mickey ate the festive desert.  

She told Derbyshire Live: 'I knew mince pies, chocolate and Christmas cake are bad for dogs but I didn’t know just how bad mince pies are.'

The dog had to spend a weekend at the centre and was fed charcoal so that his stomach would not absorb the chemicals. 

Debs Smith, Senior Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon, told The Sun: 'There is lots of advice available online about what foods your pets need to avoid this Christmas, but you can always talk to your vet too if you are unsure.

According to The Kennel Club some of the food that canine's should refrain from eating are: Chocolate, grapes, raisins, currants, sultanas, blue cheese, alcohol, bones and macadamia nuts

'If you think your pet has eaten something it shouldn’t, contact your vet straight away as the sooner toxins are treated, the better.'

According to The Kennel Club some of the food that canine's should refrain from eating are: Chocolate, grapes, raisins, currants, sultanas, blue cheese, alcohol, bones and macadamia nuts.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
