    Smoothies?

    Since moving to the NoVa/DC area and working from home, I've started putting on weight and it annoys me. Boyfriend and I are starting to eat healthier to combat the bulge and have decided to do smoothies for breakfast (he has a magic bullet blender, the name makes me giggle). Today is day...

    Golden in Need

    My friend has a huge (over 100lb) golden boy who is suddenly quite sick and has been in the E-Vet for a couple of days now. She's a full time student with a full time job and this dog is probably the one thing that keeps her from going insane. She's set up a page to raise funds to cover just...

    Putting weight on with Pancreatitis?

    So, Tango is in need of just a bit more weight on his little frame and I'm worried there aren't many good options for doing that without overloading his pancreas. The current method is adding 1 whole egg a day to his diet and so far that seems to be working fine. I wonder if that's too much...

    Picky Pacreatitis Tango

    So, Tango was diagnosed with mild Pancreatitis in September and I've been trying a various diets to see what will keep him at a good weight and not cause a flare up. When he's on a food with too much fat, he vomits daily. When he has a flare up, he vomits multiple times a day and eats/drinks...

    Alive!

    Rumors of my demise have been overstated! Lots of changes in the past year. I no longer have Izzy, I moved to Washington DC, got a new job, and I've divorced my ex. (He has Izzy) I still have Tango and Jade. The tank pets didn't make the move with me (Escaped or succumbed to the...

    Goat keeping?

    Has anyone ever kept goats? The dojo owns about 4 acres of wooded area that we just fenced in. We're setting up a coop this weekend for guinea fowl to keep the ticks down and were thinking of getting a goat to help with the brush. Our main concern is the amount of care a goat would need. The...

    New addition!

    So a few weeks ago, hubby says he wants to name our child Qwerty. I tell him we can name a pet Qwerty but not a child. In fact, we won't even name a mammal Qwerty, it has to be a reptile. Lo and behold, two days later one of the dads at the dojo shows me a picture of his son's new Crestie...

    Tango is going to get fired...

    So, Tango comes to work with me at the dojo every day that I work. I work behind the front desk that everyone has to pass by to get into the dojo. I have to interact not only with existing members and students but also their parents, potential students, and small siblings. Recently, Tango...

    Tango has a Stye :(

    Poor Tango has a stye on his right upper eyelid. He's suuuuper sensitive about his eyes so I can't get very close to it with a pair of tweezers or anything. Should I put anything on it? Is a neosporin/bacitracyn type thing ok to use? I have an optical antibiotic he got when Izzy bit him but he...

    Tango turns 1!

    So, according to his vet records, Tango's birthdat is April 8th. That makes my little rabbit dog an Easter baby! We spent the weekend at the coast with my grandparents and brought the little monster to all the festivities as a treat (They don't usually have our animals over when we visit, Izzy...

    VFF Sprint issues

    Hola! I got a new pair of VFF sprints yesterday at REI, I was super excited because they have a more flexible bottom and their tread won't mess up the mat at work. They were also on clearance! However, it seems like the stretchy upper is the wrong size for the shoe. The edge of the upper is...

    Just a quick picture from yesterday before work! I was taking pictures for my blog and Tango got in a little cameo. Not sure he liked the flavor of my lipgloss though! Now, anyone else have pictures of doggie kisses?

    Tagline help!

    So, it looks like we'll be getting a Fetching Tag to go with Tango's BraidaRoo collar. Although we won't be getting the matching brass tag (way too heavy for his sensitive neck), I still want an awesome tag line... Things that might help: He's a tripawd/tripod We work at a Ninjutsu...

    Tango's Shame

    Ok so here are some pictures of Tango's shame. His shame is caused by: A (healing) Hole in his face, a Cone, a Coat, and BOOTIES. He would be spared the booties if he would walk on the wet cold ground outside and go to the bathroom but he won't without booties. So, I protected his tiny feets and...

    Skin Salve?

    I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good salve/lotion/magic potion for sensitive canine skin? Tango is tiny and he has thin sensitive skin. His scar has had a couple of months to heal so it shouldn't be quite as pink as it is (I think?) Is there anything I can apply to his scar area to keep is...
