  1. If everything's normal digestively, he might just be tired of it. Also could be a slight formula change, but you'd have to contact Purina to find out. You could buy a 5 lb bag of something else in the Pro Plan line and see if that helps and if he tolerates it well. Doolin has been eating the same thing as your boy, though never very enthusiastically, and I just started mixing it with the Pro Plan Salmon and Rice and he seems to be enjoying it more. Worth a shot!
  2. You nailed it. This girl is a hoot. I was preparing their breakfast this morning when I noticed the TV had come on. Found the remote in her bed. Not nibbled, just hoarded. Doolin is just all sweetness, not a drop of mischief. Thank you! We are still adjusting and have moments of "this is a lot!" (with two resident cats and two squatter cats), but I have to say they are pretty great. And they love each other so much.
  3. We have had luck with plain chicken breast and oatmeal prepared with coconut water, plus a spoonful of Olewo carrots. If that doesn't work, I would think a short course of metronidazole is in order. Get well soon, Odin!
  4. What a happy boy! The hedgehog was Sweep's absolute favorite (I just threw out 3 or 4 de-grunted ones yesterday when culling the toy basket for the young'ns), but Lambchop was a close second. Lambchop lost her ears early on in an unfortunate zoomie accident.
  5. Doolin and Willa channeling their Aunt Sweep. (The vet tells us Doolin has a perfect bite, meaning his upper and lower teeth meet exactly, as opposed to the slight overbite that's ideal. With his constant chattering, he's wearing down the bottom teeth a bit. Who knew?!)
  6. Miss Willa is certainly providing plenty of entertainment...today we have found a paperback, a wooden coaster, and my socks in her crate. The paperback must have been especially tasty; it now has a window in the cover. The Nylabone? Remains untouched.
  7. How cool is that?! Well done to you both!
  8. Happy gotcha #4, girls! You're doing a great job keeping your momma sane in #thesetryingtimes. Hope you get a fun celebration with zero fireworks!
  9. So you're telling me this circling like sharks should settle down? #newtotwo
  10. This is a great observation. I agree with the comment that it's a disservice to dog and owner both when the owner is staring at a phone their entire walk. Also: you can't tease us with video evidence of Apollo's sliding stop and not share it!
  11. I'm so sad to see this update, but what a great age and a wonderful life Peggy had with you. I loved the beautiful photos of your walks together over the years. She had the loveliest frosted face and the best ears. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Rest well, Peggy.
  12. She was treated yesterday too. (Sorry, I see how "emotional support sister" might have sounded like she was just along for the ride. I just meant that she's an outgoing sort that has already boosted his confidence quite a bit.) Given that she came from exactly the same kennel and track, our vet didn't see any point in waiting, though we did have a fecal done yesterday to get her baseline. They are both still doing great, thank you! Doolin ate his dinner late, as predicted, and they both ate their breakfast, played outside, and went for morning walkies. <Warning: poop talk ahead> The only thing we have noticed is that last night their poop was slightly darker and extra stinky. Back to normal today. It has surprised me that both of them have had mostly solid output despite the hooks. I will consider myself lucky! Willa this morning. I told Miss Jan I think she might have a touch of the mayhem.
  13. We're home! All was uneventful. They had a run as soon as we got through the gate and harnesses came off. Dinner served (ignored by Doolin, but that's him; he'll eat around 8) and back in comfy beds now. Thanks for baknforfing! Will update after the follow-up!
  14. Doolin and his emotional support sister have been dropped off for their Profender treatment. Good thoughts appreciated!
  15. Thanks, all, for the Warm Willa Welcome! Doolin is in love, despite her being a bit pushy gluttonous curious about everything. He is such a good, tolerant boy. She is going to keep us on our toes, I think. Signed, Figuring It Out in Nashville
  16. We miss you very much, Aiden our friend. Extra lubs to Miss Jan and the girls today.
  17. She looks tiny to us too but actually weighs a few more pounds than Sweep did! She's 65.5 lbs right off the track to Sweep's 58 in her racing days. I would never have guessed she weighs this much. My dad really wants me to name her Banjo. My husband is pushing for Willadean Winkles.
  18. When your littermate becomes available for adoption, there's only one thing to do... This is CBJ Villain aka Villa (probably changing to Willa), who joined us yesterday. Despite her intense stare she is a sweet, curious girl and her brother seems absolutely thrilled to have her here. The hoomans are a bit "What have we done?" but we're trainable. So far, so good with the cats and no sibling squabbles yet.
