About 4 years ago, a canister caught my eye and the ingredients within stopped me in my tracks. Then I read the ingredients list, thinking they were cute and smelled so yummy, that of course they had to...

Looking back, Id like to take this opportunity to show you some of my favorite...

My dog has a partial tear of his ACL/CCL (ligament) in the left rear leg. Ive been blogging about this for a number of weeks, and hes had an issue for about 6 weeks. Weve tried rest, homeopathic meds, cold laser therapy, and now we are onto the custom orthotic better known as the knee brace. I dont want my dog to have ACL surgery if at all possible.
To recap, our we went down the cold laser route and blogged about that in our first entry to this saga.

I am a dog mom. I like love it when folks call me a dog mom and I never grimace, furrow a brow, or correct them. In fact, a sense of pride swells over me. I am not alone. Dog moms should celebrate on Mothers Day (and always).
I buy cotton swabs, I use baby wipes on my dog after a muddied walk or rainy day, and I could probably circumnavigate the globe twice with the amount of paper towels Ive used in a lifetime of dog parenting, or as some call it, dog ownership.
Anyone can be a mother. It...
