Keeping plants out of reach is always something a pet owner has to be concerned with. But what about those plants that can’t be lifted out of harm’s way?
There are plants that are harmless, but others that can make our dogs and cats very sick. There are those that can even cause death. Here [...]

While sitting in the reception area at the vet’s yesterday, as Oreo was doing her “thing” (that would be socializing and sucking up as much attention as she could), I was flipping through some of their dog magazines. In one, I came across this ad for a special dog bowl that helps prevent Bloat.

We’ve had Oreo for 10 weeks now, and already we’ve been to the vet’s with her 5 times. Yup. Every two weeks, like clockwork.
