The devastation of the tornado damage in Oklahoma is too much for many of us to bear. Imagine the countless numbers of lives both human and animal that are affected. I know first hand the loss because a dear friend of mine is in the area. The tornado touched down 1/2 mile from where she lives near Moore, Oklahoma. She was spared, but sadly so many were not. As a volunteer with Moore Pawsibilities, shelters need help. Entire communities are devastated and the loss of life is just...

Ever wonder what your dog sees or does when you arent around? These things keep me awake at night, and the folks at Sony must be having the same dreams.

Safe, healthy dog treats are a rare breed these days it seems. In many years of working in the pet industry, many dog treats have crossed my desk: Here, try this and your dog will love them. These are the tempting lines that come along with dog treats when companies want me Dexter to try them.

To recap, our we went down the cold laser route and blogged about that in our first entry to this saga.
