So Gibbs is back on antibiotics (don’t ask) and I wanted to find a new way to give him the pills. Yeah, yeah – Pill Pockets. I worry about them because it seems to me that: Dogs figure out all of the hidden pill… Continue Reading “Strange New Product Review – Puppy Edition”
In the continuing mission to feed and nurture a healthy dog, we arrive at the next challenge: Gibbs inhales his food. We haven’t had a lot of choking, but there have been a non-zero number of vomiting-after-meals incidents. Our solution was to give him… Continue Reading “Feeding a Hungry Teenaged Dog”
