I posted earlier this week about some potential problems with grain-free diets, and it got me to wondering what people feed their dogs. I am currently using the BARF (bones and raw food) diet, only because Penny is allergic to beef, so I can control ingredients better this way.

I featured a post this week about vacationers FaceTiming with their dog. I’m wondering if many dog lovers do this. I’m old, so forgive me if I’m using the wrong terminology here, but is Facetime (or Skype or whatever) a part of your relationship with your dog?

One of my bucket list items is to go to Alaska to actually see the Iditarod in person. In lieu of that, I’m following along as best I can from Ohio. How about you – are you a big fan?

Barbra Streisand recently announced in a Variety interview that she had cloned her Coton de Tulear Samantha by removing some skin from her tummy and some DNA from her cheek just before Sammie died. The result was four puppies, one of whom died, and one who was given away to a close friend.
Streisand now shares her life with Miss Violet and Miss Scarlett, as well as an unrelated dog named Miss Fanny. She says, You can clone the look of a dog, but you can’t clone the soul. Still, every time I look at their faces, I think of my Samantha…and smile.
Not everyone thinks cloning is ethical. Some say it messes with what should only be the purview of God. What say you?

There was a bit of a kerfuffle after the Bichon Frise won Westminster Tuesday night. Did you agree with the judge’s pick or would you have chosen a different dog?

This week, we’ve featured several stories on the cold weather and how it affects dogs. So it got me curious, how do you and your dog negotiate the freezing temperatures?

I love watching dog shows, although allowing only two hours for the National Dog Show is a national travesty, in my opinion. Did you get a chance to watch it?

I posted a picture Thursday of an alcove that was cut into a person’s drywall to make a bedroom for the dog. I can’t imagine going to the expense, but then I’m broke most of the time. How far would you go to make accommodations for your dog’s comfort?

With Harvey coming onshore in Texas, and looking like he’s there to stay for awhile, my thoughts turned to evacuation plans. If you stay in place, the American Red Cross recommends you plan on help not reaching you for at least three days after a disaster. That means you need food, water, medications, and supplies, not just for yourself, but for your animals, as well. So, here’s my question: have you planned for what you will do in the event of a disaster?

Did you catch our Dogs of Management meme last week? Having a little fun with you this weekend, as I ask, “Which dog most resembles your boss?”
