Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Tue Jul 20, '10 8:03pm PST  I have not heard anything or dug up any other news so maybe he was thinking of the merge with Eagle Pack or P&G buying Natura products. If I hear anything else I will let you all know asap. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Tue Jul 20, '10 8:01pm PST  We have been doing homemade with kibble and it is working well. I use a couple pounds of lean meat, couple chunks of salmon, can of sardines, carrots, and a sweet potato. I cook it like a roast and then put it through the food processor with the juices and it comes out like canned food. Samson gets about a cup of that with a cup of kibble twice a day. A 15 lb bag of Taste of the Wild lasts about a month and the homemade costs around $10 a month. I usually purchase meat that is reduced and either cook that day or freeze it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Food & Nutrition > Wellness and Proctor & Gamble

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Sun Jul 18, '10 7:14am PST  Just heard from a friend who said Wellness has been bought out by Proctor & Gamble. He said it was a notice to an independent pet store so it hasn't been announced yet. I am not saying this is true (I hope its not) but beware just in case. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Food & Nutrition > Taste of the wild?

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Sun Jun 20, '10 6:32am PST  Great to hear such good stories on TOTW, Samson is currently on Prairie and loves it. I love Orijen but in this economy we have had to cut back and TOTW fit the bill. We were already planning on trying the Wetlands next for variety and now feel better about it after reading all your great comments. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Does my dog have a sprain?

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Sun Apr 11, '10 9:16am PST  I just wanted to say that Samson is doing well and I think he will heal fine. We have been doing Glucosamine supplements for a couple years now with success, previous x-rays showed his hips are in good shape. Thanks again for all the advice, it made me feel better about it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Thu Apr 8, '10 6:13pm PST  Samson strained or tore the ACL in his knee. The vet did a thorough feel and bend on his leg and felt a spot in his knee and that is when he whimpered. He is on light activity and Rimadyl for a couple weeks and hopefully that will do it. She did mention surgery if it doesn't work, but there is no way that is in our budget. We are trying this and if it doesn't work we will have to get an x-ray and go from there. We are hoping it is just strained and he just needs a couple weeks to heal. Thanks for all your advice. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Does my dog have a sprain?

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Wed Apr 7, '10 6:40pm PST  Thanks for the opinions. It is a hind leg, his right hind leg. He will let me feel it but whines when I bend it. I am keeping him rested and will call the vet first thing tomorrow and get him looked at. I fear he did tear something, but I am hoping not. I can't afford surgery right now so I am hoping it is something that will heal without it, I feel terrible saying that. Thanks for the info, I do appreciate it. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Does my dog have a sprain?

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Wed Apr 7, '10 1:38pm PST  Earlier today Samson was doing his run as fast as he can around the yard and on his last lap he yelped and held his leg up whimpering. It has been raining so the grass is wet, but I didn't see him slip. I felt his leg all over and he didn't whine until later when I lifted it pointing the foot back, I felt nothing broken. Few hours later he is still favoring that leg heavily, sometimes not using it all. His tail is still wagging and he grabs a toy and wants to play. I did give him a crushed aspiring earlier to help with any pain. The reason I did not call the vet is they are closed today. I can call another vet if needed, but I really don't have the money for an emergency visit. Has anyone else had this happen? Can you ice/heat it like a human would? my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Food & Nutrition > My experience with Orijen

Samson Can I have some?     Barked: Thu Mar 18, '10 7:07pm PST  I have read on different posts where smaller dogs don't do as well on Orijen. We love Orijen here (but Samson is a big boy) and used some pumpkin and yogurt to help when we transitioned. If you are not up for that then try Acana, it may be easier on the tummy my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
