Wouldn't' a simpler solution be to go tot he back yard with a spade

help your lawn.

It works for the dog and Ed ****s more than a family of 4.

You need to buy the high quality dog food. The higher the quality the
less the ****.

Ed is on a high fiber "diet" dog food. It isn't exactly cheap.

Amazing how much corn and soy meal costs now days.

This is what we're feeding our new one.

Not a lot of corn or soy meal in it.

But, it aint' cheap.


This is what Mr Ed eats

Ingredients: Chicken meal, brown rice, peas, cracked pearled barley,
millet, powdered cellulose, oatmeal, chicken, rice bran, potatoes,
beet pulp, chicken fat (preserved with natural tocopherols), natural
flavor, flaxseed, fish meal, egg product, choline glucosamine
hydrochloride, dried chicory root, chondroitin sulfate, L-Camitine,
carrots, kelp, apples, cranberry powder, rosemary extract, parsley
flake, vitamin E supplement, iron proteinate, zinc proteinate, copper
proteinate, ferrous sulfate, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate, potassium
iodide, thiamine mononitrate, manganese proteinate, manganous oxide,
ascorbic acid, vitamin A supplement, biotin, calcium pantothenate,
manganese sulfate, sodium selenite, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin
B6), vitamin B12 supplement, riboflavin, vitamin D supplement, folic
acid

Fiber (estimated dry matter content) = 14.4%

Sounds like one of the better foods. Which is it?

Or do you mix it yourself? :)

Costco


What wine do you serve with that dish? A nice chardonnay?

Which one?

In any case, it's probably much cheaper than the Merrick stuff. I wish Costco
had one with beef as the main ingredient. Our vet recommended beef as having a
more calming influence on the dog.

One of my cats likes a sip of beer now and then. Wine is probably too
upscale for him.

My wife likes a merlot with a picture of a rooster on the bottle label.
I don't know anything about wine and actually don't like it much.

When we lived in the Jax area, we used to like to head up into coastal
Georgia to the Golden Isles (mainly St. Simons), where some wag was
bottling and selling "Dead Dog Beer."
