They make freeze dried raw salmon treats for dogs and cats. Mine go crazy for them!

I’m sorry to be this person, but that’s an albatross chick. They are struggling to reproduce because of this problem. 😞
Also, natural variations in ingredients are a thing.
I’m actually surprised that my area of Wisconsin has the majority of these within a 15 minute walk. Bar included, of course. It makes me appreciate my neighborhood more.
She is so darling!
Yeah, probably when the system changes.
This is the correct response. I don’t know a single vet who hasn’t done a spay-abort, and I’ve worked in animal welfare for decades.
One of the freed hostages talked about that in the article. Her husband is still being held. They appear to know.
I may default to duck if only cooking for myself or one other person. It turned out great! I have not had duck gravy, but now I must. I made a cranberry cherry chutney last night that was pretty satisfying, though.
It could also be because fewer Americans have time to spend cooking dinner, and turkeys are large, cumbersome, and time consuming to cook well. I love to cook, and I love to cook turkey. I’ve converted a good amount of people over the years who said they don’t enjoy it.
All that said, I only make it three or four times a year for the reasons above. That, and it’s not practical when you’re cooking for two unless you can find butchered pieces. I’m making a duck instead today, but I wish I was making turkey.
This isn’t entirely accurate. Unless it’s a repeat offender when it comes to biting or the animal is exhibiting symptoms of illness, the general practice is for the animal to be quarantined for ten days either at home or a veterinary clinic or shelter. The animal must have exams performed by a veterinarian every few days to check for signs of illness. At the end of the ten day period, the animal must have one final exam to be released from quarantine. After each exam a report must be sent to the county humane officer.
This is the protocol in the state of Wisconsin. I’ve worked in shelters and veterinary clinics in the state, so this is something we deal with regularly. Last year we even had a dog bite another person while they were supposed to be quarantining at home. That dog was not euthanized.
I am a very casual gamer, but my partner is much more invested and skilled when it comes to gaming. I ended up really enjoying watching him play Returnal, to the point that I’d be annoyed if he played without me. It was visually beautiful, the story was movie-like, and I was even helpful in watching where the monsters were so they didn’t sneak up on him.
I hope he wants to replay it, because I’d love to watch it again. Highly recommend!
Or fantasies of being judge, jury, and executioner.
Just lovely. It appears to be a Bengal. They are beautiful and entertaining cats!
The Jacobson’s response! I love it when they do that.
What a shame your mother missed her opportunity to experience it
Agreed. On a sad note, when puppies come in to a veterinarian for tail cropping and dewclaw removal procedures they are not anesthetized. While it’s done in a sterile, more safe way, it’s still torture. The puppies scream. I hate being in the building for those appointments. Ear and tail cropping, declawing, de-barking, and all physical modifications for nonmedical reasons should be outlawed everywhere.
I work in veterinary medicine, and it’s alarming how many calls we get like this. Just last night a potential new client called saying their breeder told them Ragdoll cats can’t get the rabies vaccine without later developing cancer. The client point-blank told us the breeder was more knowledgeable than our doctors. What do you even say that wouldn’t get you fired?
As I said, dog bite and behavioral euthanasia reports are murky at best, and rely upon nonexpert information. I’m sorry, but a picture graph with no information on how the information was obtained, what verification was involved, etc. is no better than a Facebook share. That’s my point. Information is hard to qualify, quantify, and assess. Trying to oversimplify such a complicated issue is not going to get to the root of the problem.
He’s gorgeous! It’s always hard to guess breed mixes based on appearance alone, as physical appearance is determined by such a small percentage of DNA. It’s always fun to guess, though! I’ve worked in various animal industries for years, and we always start a poll when someone submits their dog for DNA testing. My guess for the predominant breeds is either Belgian Malinois or German Shepherd, then Staffordshire terrier.
Congratulations on finding such a fantastic dog, and I hope you update us once his results are in!
