    Wow, its been almost 10 months since I last posted a mix of dog songs! Im really slacking, especially now that I have a regular bi-weekly radio show again and have been accumulating all kinds of must-share tracks for several running lists of themed mixes.

    So I still dont know a better legal venue other than 8tracks.com for curating and disseminating my compilations online:

    The other half of this mix struck me immediately upon seeing her face

    Do you see it, too? Her owner says that most people only get the more fluffy half.

    Ive mentioned before how Bowdus allergies compel me to keep him on year-round flea medication. The drug Ive chosen for the task is Comfortis, despite some concerns Ive posted about in the past. They typically offer a mail-in rebate, which weve cashed in each time weve been eligible.

    This is the letter I received in response to my latest rebate request.

    Dear [my name, misspelled]

    Thank you for submitting your request for the Trifexis (spinosad + milbemycin oxime), Comfortis (spinosad), or Elanco...

    The lovely foxtails that glint and wave in the late afternoon light of April

    dry up into evil spikes and fields a-prickle with danger in May.

    Around this time, we see lots of local dogs wearing these field masks to prevent against accidental and very expensive foxtails snorted up the nostril or lodged in the eye. Its not the most photogenic accessory, but it works, especially for pet owners who have already had to shell out something in the vicinity of $600 to extract errant foxtails from...

    Bowpi seems to play best with the fluffy toy breed types that are approximately her size. They tend to have just enough zing to keep up, but arent large enough to completely overwhelm her.

    Well, some of those puppies can still propel themselves with quite a bit of force!

    This is my third year of tracking our pet finances here at the House of Two Bows. This is an ongoing effort to get a practical sense of what it costs to keep two 20 ~ 30 pound adult dogs in an area of the US with relatively high costs of living. Previous posts in this series can be found under the category of finances.

    The Cost of (Pet) Things for March 2013:

    Food: $66 [previous month, $72] Treats: $11 [previous, $9] Grooming: $7 [previous, $8] Accessories and misc: $0 [previous, $0] Vet &...
