This is why we feed lots of raw meat. Particularly, green tripe. Please do watch this entire doc & enjoy Dr. Becker DVM. If you're concerned about your dog's inflammatory reaction to foodstuffs, I recommend Dr. Jean Dodd's Nutriscan...it is an at-home performed  saliva test that will inform you of your dog's allergies.

Sandy is moving to The Last Best Place. Oregon birthed William Kittredge & imbued within him that love of tall grasses, open fields, vistas, trees, birds, horses...in short, majesty. I'd like to think that I have almost everything he ever wrote. I trust him when he claims Montana as his heart place.

My sweet sidekick is a terror in the paddock!

Darling, darling, sweet, naught, naughty, naughty, sassy, adorable Mini (Mint Julep) departed today with Brook Moore Transport (AKC Malinois Breeder of Merit) for Minnesota. Oh, my did the tears fly! Is there a cuter little monkey to be found? I'm so thank you to Ms. A & her daughters for providing Mini with the balanced, supportive, active home that she deserves! Raw feeding is so important (whether one does it completely or as a facet of...)! Thank you A. for continuing this diet! I'm ultra-thrilled that Mini serendipitously ended up 40 minutes from where her sire moved to a few weeks ago! Play dates ahead!!!

Mini, Mamie, Paloma and Vinca really LOVED this Tiny Desk concert. I loved it even more than they did.

The finest genetics in the world! And an even finer spirit.
