Bone marrow
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
Last night I bought 2 peices of frozen bone marrow. The marrow is still in the bone. My question is should I boil the bone first (to kill possible germs on it) before giving it to my dog? Should I take the marrow out of the bone? Or is it safe to just give him the frozen bone marrow? Thanks

Q about the Furminator
Posted to: Health & Grooming
I was using the Furminator on my cat today and my mom told me that the reason you get so much hair off the animal was because it is nothing but a blade that cuts the fur. She said she asked the groomer and they told her this. I am having a very hard time believing this. I even tried it on a small section...

Rotating foods
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
How many of you rotate between 2 or 3 (or more) dog foods? I don't mean daily, but more like every few months, do you switch say from Innova to Canidae and back to Innova to keep some variety in the dog's life? I am considering doing this with Zoe since she seems to like some change. Are...
