You've no doubt seen the photo.

I've seen the pic but not that video...tear jerker for sure.

Cannot watch.....Suey's muzzle is gray now, & that's enough for me to endure.....

I have watched the video and it tears your heart out. You can feel the connection they have eminating from the video.

I've seen the video before. It nice to see a senior dog well taken care of. I'm also impressed with a 19 year old German Shepherd. I've read in other places that someone has offered to pay for treatments for the dog's arthritis.

smart dog!

I bet they had to work on that a lot. Service dogs can do that sort of thing.

they have to be trained too.

A year ago today we put Atticus to rest, can't believe just Like Domenic's BD it's been a year already. Still miss him terribly and Sophie told me when she saw the date this morning she cried a little in school. I felt so bad but told her I cried too. Gave Winston, Attie's predecessor quite a few extra hugs today!

♥♥♥

Awe! Great picture!! (((Ronnie & Sophie)))

Ronnie :(

makes me happy I can never remember dates

{{{{{{Ronnie}}}}}}}

Thanks guys, I remember his because it was the day after Dommy's BD and I remember Callie's it was the day after our anniversary.

Great I've had some of them!! No illness thankfully. I was just going to get more for the weekend storm they love the knuckle bones and they last a good while.

Thanks for posting Celeste!!

hmmmm interesting, I remember giving Wall-e a pig's ear but I have no idea what brand it was, wonder if that was when he had all that diarrhea????

Atticus was such a noble looking dog! Suey hasn't had any of those treats.....she likes Busy Bones....

Ronnie - how is under-the-porch cat doing?

Patch is doing good as far as I can tell Memory. I haven't seen him physically but the food gets eaten and I saw tracks in the snow so I know he is still there.

Do you know that he is a "he" for sure?

Jen, diarrhea is one of the 1st symptoms.

No Mem, just refer to it as a him!

Must have been it then, but I can't prove it cause I have no idea what brand it was

the dogs can't get salmonella.. the owners can

It says they do........

Salmonella can sicken animals that eat these products and humans are at risk for salmonella poisoning from handling contaminated pet products, especially if they have not thoroughly washed their hands after having contact with the pet products or any surfaces exposed to these products.
Pets with Salmonella infections may be lethargic and have diarrhea or bloody diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Some pets will have only decreased appetite, fever and abdominal pain. Infected but otherwise healthy pets can be carriers and infect other animals or humans. If your pet has consumed the recalled product and has any of these signs, please contact your veterinarian

hhhmm thought I read that they can digest it.. could be wrong

More recalls and the place where they were sold....PETCO is on the list.

I bought the dehydrator to make kale chips for myself.. now I can make sweet potato treats for the dogs too

I have sweet potato biscuits for Suey.

I bought a pack of them a while ago.. sam's yams I think.. they love em

Atticus was a great looking dog. I'm sure he had a great personality and is missed.

Atticus sure must have had quite a personality!


Here's what Cliffie thinks of the snow. He can nap outside for up to an hour.

wow.. warm one

Cliffie get inside and get warm!!

An I bet he can be panting where you are looking for a sweater to put on. He's a very hansom dog.

My elkhound always found the last bit of snow to nap in......the neighbors had a samoyed at the same time, the 2 Nordics were always in the snow.....Cliffie thinks he's a sled dog!

Cyrus would love having Cliffie around!!! Terra is black Lab, she likes the snow for 10 - 20 minutes and she good! LOL Cyrus just loves playing in the snow but needs a dog who loves snow too. :)

Too cute, never seen Wall-e sleep in the snow, but he sure does love it

Love Wall-E's coloring....

he is a good looking dog, probably only thing he has going for him, I know he can't help it, it's the parentage
