    Wow! Really interesting, Liver Qi/Chi affects the tendons. It makes sense that Anne thinks stagnant liver qi might be part of Bugs issue:In Chinese Medicine "the liver functions to promote the free flow of chi, it dominates the tendons and opens into the eyes. Pathological changes of the liver mainly manifest themselves in dysfunctions of the liver in storing blood and in promoting free flow of

    Last night Bug had his first acupuncture appointment and boy was he odd! We walked into the room, I sat down in a chair and Anne seated herself on the dog bed close to Bugs level. Bug hid under the chair I was sitting on! He has never done anything like that before.Anne was very calm and gentle. She gave him plenty of time to acclimate, never rushing him. Finally he relaxed on the dog bed and
  • Agility Class and Failed Critter Chasing

    Last night Bug had agility class. We raised the A-frame some more. No problem says Bug. He flew over it and wanted to KEEP flying over it. Weve created a monster!! As long as I do not reinforce his self-reinforcing A-frames I think he will recognize that doing equipment all by his lonesome is not much fun. Currently he has a magnetic force that pulls him to the A-frame, but he can be called off
  • Probiocin (more on probiotics)

    A few months ago I did a post on probiotics. I feel like they are an important component of a healthy human and dog supplement regimen, for lack of a better descriptive word.I received an e-mail from someone in marketing at ProbioticSmart.com would I be willing to try Probiocin and write a post on it?So, I tried the product.My boys were already on probiotics, so I did not notice an immediate

    So, I finally watched the entire 2 x 2 dvd. It was not long, I just needed to put aside time. Even John got sucked into it for a bit! It was enthralling from my perspective!What I would like to know is if it truly takes as little time (with consistent training and handling) as it seems? This would be a super method for Bug if it does, because we could avoid the repetition and strain on his
  • Thistle Sacks and C6 Results

    Today I stopped at Ocean State Job Lot, a local discount store, to see if they had thistle sacks to make my own "Tug It," per Kathleen's recommendation. I bought three figuring they might not last long, and I was right. Two are already ripped to shreds!I cut up a sample of the Natural Balance Duck & Potato which contains a protein both boys can eat. Apparently I have forgotten that Natural
  • Chiro, New Vet, and Acupuncture

    This week was very busy trying to schedule appointments. Bug saw Cheryl on Wednesday. His head was out. Hello, noise sensitivity! She also felt that his iliopsoas was as tight as it has been for some time. John and I were thinking about this and we think it might be from bunny-hopping through the snow. Either way I will start to pay more attention to it.We were able to schedule an acupuncture
  • Changing Vets

    from Molasses Ain't Got NOTHIN' On Us!

    This week I am changing the dogs' vet. Gulp.I am really nervous about this. I think I am nervous because I am worried that I won't be happy with this vet and will need to change AGAIN.The reason for the change is that since my beloved vet left the practice the boys are currently at (more than 2 years ago now), I have "butted" heads more than a few times with my new primary vet and the practice
