    Megaesophagus, newfs and bailey chairs

    My 8.5 year old pup was just diagnosed with Mega E. Does anyone out there have any design specs for a newf sized bailey chair? I'm holding him up right now with the help of a kitchen chair, but I'm going to end up giving myself a hernia since he morphs into a sack of potatoes and refuses to...

    Positive thoughts appreciated

    About 6 weeks ago we found out my brother had a mass on his liver. Since then he's been for a biopsy and several other tests, and they have determined that it is cancer, that's metastasized, but we don't know from where yet. It's a bit of a blow, he is only 32 and his fiance is expecting...

    Finding tripe is hard to do....

    Hi folks, I'm on the hunt for green tripe. I live in Sault Ste. Marie, so I need a supplier north/west of Sudbury. In Sudbury would be fine as well. I am pretty sure I can't bring it in from the states, so Michigan is out. Any ideas? Is such a thing ever frozen and shipped? Thanks, Beth

    New addition to the family

    So, it appears I've adopted/foster failure-d a second newf. He is a former stud dog from a local breeder that sort of had a rough few years and in the end, the family he had gone to live with just wasn't able to care for him any more. He'd stayed with me for a few weeks last fall, I knew him...

    Sulley is extra special now

    Just thought I'd share. This afternoon Sulley rocked his evaluation to work with children and with the developmentally delayed. I'm extremely proud of my boy, although not the least bit surprised. This will let us participate in reading programs in schools as well as working with folks living in...

    A climbing plant safe for a dog

    I like my neighbours well enough, I'd just like to see less of them. We have a 6 foot fence, but it's not enough to keep their kids from non stop chattering while i'm trying to get yard work done or relax in the back with the dogs. It's not bad, just non stop and sort of annoying after a...

    Happy Birthday to my Bubby

    Yesterday was my Sulley's 3rd birthday. Since the weather has been nothing short of insane, we kept it simple with pupcakes and a romp in the park with his buddy Duncan.

    Phosphorus/Calcium Ratios for Puppies

    Just posting this as a general reference since it took me a while to find...maybe it can be a sticky? Rules of Thumb, the calcium/phosphorus ratio should be around 1:1. If it's not listed on the bag, you should be able to call the company and get that information.

    Has anyone hand spun 'newf wool'?

    I'm looking to try my hand at it, just for kicks. I don't knit very well, but I thought it might be fun to try and hand spin some yarn from newf fur and make a scarf or something. Has anyone ever tried the spinning part, or tried knitting it? I'm not at all sure how thick it should be or...

    Happy Gotchya Day to my baby boy - picture heavy

    Hard to believe it's been two years :) Time flies! From the first time I saw you... and the first time you climbed into my lap... you've always been my Bubby. We learned some new things together, like how to swim what snow was like: What it was like to be a foster family...

    Fall 2013 - road trip!

    So, I'm thinking about a road trip in the fall of 2013 to Colorado. Blame Meg for the amazing wedding photos of the rockies in the fall. Anyway, the area I've been looking at is right in/near Rocky Mountain National Park, not far from Estes Park. I'm looking at renting a cabin that allows pets...

    Our First Therapy visit...

    ...was awesome. Sulley did so well! We were there for almost an hour before he'd had enough, which I thought was pretty good for his first visit. Everyone in the nursing home was so happy to see him and the staff there is amazing. There was a band playing tonight and they pulled out a few...

    Our strangest job request so far.

    This one trumps the requests for appearances Sulley has had in the past. He gets asked to the work picnics, shore cleanups, neighborhood birthday parties, etc. He's quite the social butterfly really. Last night I got an urgent text from my friend's daughter that is expecting (this would be...
