I decided I’d leave the Big Game predictions to the dogs… literally! We went for two out of three. And it looks like Waylon has made up his mind who he hopes to win on Sunday night!
By the way, don’t laugh at my homemade signs. Ha. I didn’t have a way to print out the logos at home, so I had to work with what I had. Also, getting this coordinated with laying out the toys and keeping them away until I started filming wasn’t easy. Next time I’ll have to enlist some help!
Enjoy Harley’s cameo… and if you look close, you might catch a glimpse of my oldest pup, Cody!

Football Party Foods You Shouldn't Feed Your Dog
Chicken Wings
The main reason these are bad for dog is because the bones can be sharp, which could lead to some internal trouble for your pup. Plain chicken in small amounts can be fine. But you shouldn’t feed your dog the outer coating of a wing, especially if it’s seasoned with strong or spicy flavors. Garlic and onion powder are extremely dangerous for dogs.
Nachos
If there’s a lot of herbs, spices, and salt, nachos aren’t great for your dog. Plain tortilla chips in small amounts are fine. Smaller dogs are more at risk for salt toxicosis. Also, cheese dips should be avoided – they can cause diarrhea and/or vomiting.
Pizza
This is one that is okay in smaller amounts, particularly the crust. This is mainly due to garlic and onions, which are bad for dogs. But there are other toppings, including pepperoni, that your dog shouldn’t eat.
Cookies
Cookies might be okay, as long as there’s no chocolate. But things like raisins, walnuts, macadamias, and pistachios are toxic too. And then there’s a chance of your dog being lactose intolerant – and milk or dairy-based toppings could be an issue.
Burgers
Another item that is okay… just as long as it’s plain. No condiments, onions, or cheese. The best thing to do is make separate lean, unsalted patties for your pup.
Guacamole
This one should be avoided altogether. Avocados contain persin, which is toxic in large amounts for dogs. Also, the seasonings in the dip aren’t good either!
Chili
Once again, spices and seasonings come in to play on this one. Not only onion and garlic, but chili powder can be an issue. It can cause irritation and burning, and could also lead to stomach issues.
Potato Skins
With potato skins, small amounts are fine. But they do contain oxalates, which could cause long-term trouble for your dog’s kidneys.
Pigs In A Blanket
It’s tempting not to slip this delicious snack to your pup. But long-term, too much fatty content can lead to pancreatitis. If you do treat your pup with some pigs in a blanket, only do a small amount.
