I had a newspaper interview today, so I was wearing my Animal Place sweater and t-shirt. Of course, it also happens to be the day I have to pick up 200 lbs of food for my dogs at the raw-dog food co-op (which is really just someone's house in San Francisco). People noticed my sweater, and I found out that at least three of the co-op members are ( Read more... )

That said, we do feed them carefully controlled prepared food as supplements for treats or if Schnapps needs to rebalance some foods related to her liver problem.

I would like to like to read the switching fact sheet. I'm not for or against a raw meat diet for my snuggle muffins, but I definitely need to do more research to make up my mind ( ... )

I really like that photo. It's lovely. I think it might be one of Mina's best.

I also like her collar. A lot.

Mina really is one of the most photogenic dogs I've ever seen. She's got such presence.
