So I came home with Solid Gold
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I intended to get Nature's Variety Venison, but I wound up bringing Solid Gold's Barking at the Moon home instead. I wanted to get away from rice for a while since the dogs have been on foods with rice (and chicken) for years now. They sniffed the bag and tried their handful sample and were looking...

Dirty sutures, all my fault!
Posted to: News & Entertainment
My little guy got neutered the day before yesterday, and the surgery area has seemed to really be bothering him. In an attempt to expedite the healing process, I in all my wisdom squeezed some vitamin E on the area, totally forgetting about my dog's hobby of digging and kicking in yard after going...

It seems like we have quite the baby factory going here, so I might as well tell everyone too... Yep, I'm pregnant too...going on 7 weeks. I didn't tell a lot of people, mostly because it took me almost 2 weeks to get over the shock and stress of the situation, and despite the fact that...

If you could ask
Posted to: News & Entertainment
