Ode to a Silver Sports Car
Little silver sports car, flying up Highway Six,
Blazing past school buses, horse drawn buggies, kids on bikes.
In such a hurry to get to wherever you’re going,
sick of being stuck behind all of us yokels.
We’ve all learned to slow down and appreciate
the hills, the streams and the Mennonite buggies.
Of course, we also know all about
that speed trap just over the next hill.
Oops! Now you do, too.
Enjoy your big-ass ticket.
Butters Balloons & Blog Woes
Butters is a very pregnant French Bulldog
Ms. Butters (aka Bella, aka BPIS Ch Bullmarket Absolut Harvest Moon) has two weeks to go in her pregnancy, and she already looks like she’s swallowed a watermelon.
At this rate, she’s going to outstrip her mom, Penelope, in the “biggest pregnant Frenchie belly” contest.
More after the cut, including updates about blog changes.
Tasmanian Devils and Bad Breeders
I love feeding my dogs a raw diet. I truly and honestly believe that it is the best, most biologically appropriate diet for dogs, and that many digestive and skin issues can be cleared up with a raw diet.
What I don’t believe, however, is that raw is a magic bullet. This puts me into direct conflict with certain segments of the raw feeding population, who will tell you that raw fed dogs won’t ever get rabies, can’t contract parvo and don’t get cancer.
I take issue with all of this (mainly because it flies in the face of logic), but I actually get fairly pissed about the cancer claim.
