You scold him when he acts this way, tells him that he's bad.
But when you look deep in his eyes, you see that he's just glad.

Cradled in your swaying arms, a tear falls to his nose.

I was able to make a weeks worth of food for Sam and Bud in less than an hour on Sunday. Those two are usually so picky, and they loved it!!! I talked with my vet and she looked at the HOMEMADE DOG FOOD RECIPES book, and told me the recipes were safe for all adult dogs. I’ll keep you all updated on whether the dogs coats appear shinier and fuller and if they have more energy in the next few weeks, which is supposedly a result of feeding them the recipes in the book.
