Posted to: News & Entertainment

I was in Trader Joe's today and as I walked down the dog food aisle (I always like to look to see what places have), a woman asked me if I had a dog. I said yes, and she asked me if the Trader Joe's food was good. Now, mind you I had not recently looked at it but I immediately said, "I wouldn't...

Brown Spots on Lawn
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I know this has been covered before but I couldn't seem to find anything using "search." Just something about grubs. I have terrible brown spots on the lawn wherever Samwise and/or Ruby poo or pee. It doesn't seem to happen with every single poo or pee, just about half the time, I think...

The vet tech was in the room with myself and my daughter asking a few simple questions. I had told her about my concern of Sasha's hip, and her ears. She is...
