It's been a month since I got Milo, and I'm no longer afraid of getting animal protection called on me. He is doing really well; he's learned a lot of commands, is a big cuddler, and has finally figured out how to play!

Witherspoon went to the emergency vet clinic early this morning because she was hacking, breathingly rapidly, and was in distress. It turns out when has pneumonia. She's be at the vet overnight at a minimum. They have her on IV antibiotics and in an oxygen tent. We're praying she can come home tomorrow morning.

Hooray!
Colin is going in for surgery on the 15th, to have a golf ball sized cyst removed from his front leg. Been there for about a year, but it's slowly getting larger, and it'll be easier to remove and close the wound now before it gets too big. |

So ****ing sad. While they've suspended the provision that will kill all pit bulls in shelters, it's obviously going to happen eventually.

Last year some Stowe locals suggested my wife and I take a trip to Jay and Tremblant. We were planning on going the week before Christmas with a stop in Montreal. We saw this this fall and decided Quebec can suck-it, we're doing Jay then doubling back to Stowe or Smuggs.

Well, the Spoon is back at home and seems to be doing ok. She's sleeping a lot and will be on antibiotics for at least another week, but hopefully she'll only improve from here. When she got home all she wanted to do was sit in my wife's lap and sleep.

So I have a fun one. My two dogs have started fighting on walks. Basically when Moof gets excited, you know like he's seen a squirrel or something, Finley (otherwise known as Bitch Face) attacks him. This is particularly stupid for two reasons. One. Moof is more than twice her size. Two. He always wins because of reason one. There is no contest. She's a sheltie/aussie mix and he's a ****ing Catahoula Leopard Dog. I can barely hold him back and I'm 215lbs. She's just lucky that he isn't mean. He stops when he gets her on her back but she just won't stop. Its gotten to the point that I just don't take her anymore but I hate to exclude her. Any ideas about what might be driving this?

I wish.
He's been fighting skin allergies since the spring. He had a massive hot spot on his back, so we had another trip to the vet today. Starting Apoquel tonight. The bath was a Micro Tek skin treatment, where I had to lather him up and let it sit for 5 minutes. He was barely cooperative when it came to staying in the tub for 5 minutes. |

Poor fella. Our 1st dog had big time allergies. Most of it topical. We found head and shoulders worked the best believe it or not.
But, ... http://www.dogsnaturallymagazine.com...-allergy-drug/ I know, I know. "Homeopathic" site. But, there some truth in it. Grain of salt and all that. YMMV, etc... --KC |

Yeah, I've seen that as well. We've tried flaxseed, food changes, and a lot of topical wipes, trying to get the inflammation knocked down. Apoquel is the next step, but hopefully this won't be a regular thing. I really want to narrow down whether it's food or pollen, so we can handle the trigger and not just knock down the symptoms with drugs.

Finally put her on Merrick limited ingredient salmon and sweet potato. The limited ingredient foods are good since you can really narrow down if it is a food allergy. The food is more expensive but her coat is also a lot shinier and she is less itchy. If you don't think it's a food allergy you could always try a fish-oil supplement. BEWARE the fish farts! They can clear the room. My vet also suggested fresh coconut for the coconut oil but she wound up being VERY allergic to that. Good luck! |

Affordable lodging is good since Stowe now charges $100+ for a lift ticket! We actually preferred both the conditions and the experience at Smuggs - insane that they still are running only double lifts! Apparently it has to do with them being in a state park, but it really limits the downhill traffic which is nice. A while back Smuggs and Stowe were connected since they are both on Mansfield, but they stopped honoring each others' tickets and let the lifts / trails between the areas get overgrown - and since the notch road is impassible in winter you have to drive an hour to get slopes you can see right there. Frustrating but worth it if you haven't skied Smugglers Notch yet. But the town of Stowe is really nice - if you like that type of experience definitely make a trip to Lake Placid sometime... it's a Manhattanite's vision of what an upstate New York town should look like - with prices to match, but White Face is a great mountain.

It bothers me when people claim to understand the immune system and what's good or bad for it (like suggesting it'a a good idea to boost it,) it's so complicated all of medicine barely understands it. Yes I saw your "reader beware" statement. |

We always stay at Stowe Motel where we rent one of their houses. Especially since we've started bringing the dogs it's just a lot easier and more chill. While I like Smuggs, their lifts drive me nuts! Aside from only being twins they're all so sloooooooooooow. Which makes me kind of a hypocrite since I love Bolton when they're running the Wilderness chair which is a slow twin. One of my great joys is life is driving from the mountain straight to Picasso for their two slice and PBR special. It makes my heart sing. |

Best dog leash ever
Hey guys I just bought a shock absorbant leash made from the same material as surf board leashes. You can custom build them and I bought an attachment so I can walk my Corgi and Australian Cattle Dog at the same time on one leash without tangling. I actually did a YouTube video review of it and got the owner (they are handmade in California) to make a discount code for anyone wants one after watching! The code is my username haha =P
Anyways check out the video and let me know what you think https://youtu.be/kBYhKfU_dog |
