FAT TRIMMINGS and BONES:

Table scraps often contain meat fat that a human didn’t eat and bones.  Both are dangerous for dogs.  Fat trimmed from meat, both cooked and uncooked, can cause pancreatitis in dogs.  Although it seems normal to give a dog a bone, a dog can choke on it.  Bones can also splinter and cause an obstruction or lacerations of your dog’s digestive system.  It is just a way better idea to forget about the “doggie bag”.
