Probiocin?
I'm coming out of lurk mode to ask a question Does anyone else use this probiotic (Probiocin)? Monty's vet recommended it, and it really seems to be helping (Monty has intermittent episodes of colitis). The Probiocin we got at the vet's is the gel, but I was wondering if the Tabs would do...

Moose Meat. OK?
Ok, around here it seems to be pretty common knowlege that you don't give dogs raw moose meat. At least everyone in the last couple weeks seems to know this. I didn't. I have always given it to them, with no problems. They've gotten it the last 3 years at least. When asked, the only answer...

WTH is with the rosemary?
I've been scouring the planet, looking for a grain-free, canned, no chicken/chicken fat, no ROSEMARY, moderate protein level dog food. Pirate can't have rosemary - it's a BIG seizure trigger, for him. The other day I was checking out the Honest Kitchen's website. I saw their Preference...

Nikon brags!
Nikon got his CGC on 10/24! He had passed 9/10 items in July (10 months old) but the 3 minute separation has been the thorn in our side. Before our second try, we spent more time working on that exercise than all other nine combined! I still owe Nikon a new Kong that I promised... On 10/17 he got...

Salt content in treats, bones and chewy things
I need to keep Dublin's salt level steady and not cause a big increase in it. I noticed on treats it does not give that information. I am guessing pig ears, hickory basted bones and basted bones in chicken broth would be saltier. I have no clue what to look for on labels. Our vet said stick with...
