Product Review: Vet’s Best Ear Relief
According to the Veterinary Pet Insurance Company, canine ear problems were the leading cause of vet visits in 2009. I was recently asked to try out a product called Vet’s Best Ear Relief, a wet and dry system from veterinarian Dawn Curie Thomas.

Friday Funny: Fishing for Dogs
My son’s Big Brother took him fishing last week. When I asked Jimmy how he did, he said, “Mom! I caught a Basset Hound!”
I’m pretty sure he meant a bass, but you never know!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
