E-Coli

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 7 Sep 10

Does anyone here have any experience with E-Coli in dogs? Our Siberian Husky was diagnosed with it last month. The antibiotics that he is on do not seem to be working. He has the occasional bloody nose, not too bad though. He...

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 19 Jan 09

On the weekend I tend to read the classified section of the newspaper. I always linger over the pets section. Why is it fashionable these days to breed a poodle with just about any other breed that is out there? A friend of mine...

Apple Cider Vinegar

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 21 Oct 08

I had tried losing weight with apple cider vinegar before and it didn't work for me. Now, I have found out that I wasn't doing it right. I only took it after dinner. I took it straight and the taste is really nasty. I have since...

10,000 steps

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 1 Jun 08

I was always one of those people that thought reaching 10,000 steps a day was impossible. I proved myself wrong yesterday. I had gotten one of those step counters from Avon. I decided to clip it on when I got up yesterday. Between...

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 15 Apr 08

Well, it looks like we have lost our favorite restaurant. This was the one and only restaurant in our area. They also ran a B&B. It was sold a few months ago and we were hoping the new owners would also run it as a restaurant. We...

sponsor a dog

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 29 Oct 07

Has anyone on here ever sponsored a dog? We signed up with the Dogs Trust. She is a little cutie, a lurcher border collie cross. I think sponsorship is a good idea as it helps to look after the dogs that can not be rehomed for...

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 5 Sep 07

I turned the news on this morning and I got a shock. It seems that the powers that be here in the UK, want DNA of everyone who lives here and of everyone who visits here. This is in the "we are considering" stage of things. I...

can't do sit ups

spiritwolf52 @spiritwolf52 (2300) 5 Jul 07

What can a person do to lose weight when they can't do sit ups? I have tried doing them, but I fail every time. I get out with the dogs during the day so I am not a couch potato. I can't afford to go to a gym and we don't have...
