allergy skin testing vs blood testing?
Posted to: Health & Grooming
Anyone care to throw out the pros and cons here? I know that the skin testing is more thourogh but do you think the blood test is effective or am I just going to throw away the money?

Do they know I'm pregnant?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Can dogs sense stuff like that? My husband says - and I agree - that the farther along I get, the more differently they act towards me. They've definitely been more protective, and I occassionally get the sense that they're "herding" me. Like, if I'm really tired, they'll sort...
