    These dogs are just too cute!

    Last night Thule and I went for a walk and met this lovely elderly lady in front of her house. She was so excited to see Thule and hugged her and kissed her and, of course, had to get some cookies to give her. Thule gave her kisses and gave paw for her cookies; they both enjoyed their meeting...

    Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency

    This is a new one on me but apparently, it is fairly common ... from what I understand from another dog forum I'm on... someone on that forum just had a 17 month old diagnosed; had symptoms very similar to ones that we often discuss here. "old hands" probably know all about this, but I thought...

    Pet Insurance - up date

    :crazy: :crazy: Well, I've gone from paying $65.00 per month to $95.00 per month! I was thinking about what Jen (Murphy) said, and decided to call Petsecure to see if I could get the unlimited (Secure 4) coverage. It covers so much more, including preventatives and dental... so long story short...

    PetSecure Pet Insurance

    Well, I might regret it, but I've had it with PetSecure; as some of you may know, Thule had bi-lateral cruciate surgery in 2009. At the time, the company paid 80% of the cost, less the deductable of $100.00, for my monthly premiums of $55.00 per month. Immediately following the surgery, they...

    Natural Balance Sweet Potato & Fish

    Just picked up a bag for Thule... I've been trying to get her to eat dry... because of all the food allergies... she LOVES it... I haven't had a reaction like that since Orijen (had to stop feeding because it contains carrots). The NB is much lower in fat too which is a bonus since I'm trying...

    another Satin Ball testimonial!

    Thankfully, I've never had to give Thule Satin Balls, but a girl in my office has a 2 year old border collie with a severe "uterine" infection (I don't know much beyond that) and is on antibiotics. Jennifer was in quite the state because the dog had not eaten for going on six days and was...

    Finally! (?)

    Well, after 16-17 months since the double TPLO, I think I can finally say that Thule is 100% recovered! I haven't forced her into long walks, I always thought she'd let me know when she was ready, and boy! last night she was ready! We left the house, for a normal potty walk and HRH decided...

    Grooming Table Update

    While I was out looking for the legs for my table today, I found a 24 x 48 table, metal folding - telescopic - legs for $54.00 at Home Hardware. I wanted a table like that anyway for the patio, so I bought it... maybe it could do double duty. You all were SO right about the height of the...

    Do Newfs get fleas?

    I'm serious... I just was given advice by a long-time newf owner questioning why I was putting this poison in my dog (I do agree, it's poison). Has anyone here actually had a Newf that got fleas? Keep in mind, ticks are not a problem in Newfoundland - yet! :whistling:
