This is terribly sad situation. Can someone please take Pfeizer? He is in North Carolina. He shouldn’t have to spend his final days in a concrete cell.
————————————————————————
On July 17, the owners of a 16-year-old golden retriever mix walked their elderly dog into the Beaufort County Animal Control in Washington, N.C., and handed his leash over to a shelter employee.
The dog, named “Pfeizer,” has all of the typical signs of advanced age…his body is arthritic, his skin is looser than it once was and his fur is thin and missing in places.
The following information is listed on Pfeizer’s Petango pet profile:
Pfeizer is a 16 year old Neutered male Golden Retriever mix that was surrendered by his owners on 7/17 because they couldn’t keep him anymore. He has some skin allergies on his back that the vet has been treating, but he is still irritated back there. He is an elderly dog, and doesn’t like a lot of people. But is ready for adoption NOW.
Please take a moment to network this senior dog’s information – he deserves to enjoy his final moments of life in the comfort of a home, on a soft bed, by the side of a person who loves him.
Please direct all inquiries about this dog to the facility where he is being held; refer to identification number 23345387
Note: For more info email the shelter staff at animal.control@co.beaufort.nc.us. Always refer to the petango or ID number! Adoption fee is $65 which includes spay/neuter, p/d shot, bordetella, microchip and deworming. Approved 501c3 Rescues can pull for $15 which includes p/d shot, bordetella, microchip and deworm. Some volunteer assistance for 501c3 rescues.

Mommy thinks that this stretchy shirt thingy will make me feel less crazy when the big boomers start outside the window. She says that there are elves in the sky rolling balls into pins and when they hit them it makes those big smashing sounds. I am not sure that I believe her but the shirt does make me kind of sleepy. I really only feel better when I am lying on Mommy’s feet and, of course, when they stop making all that racket.
And then just when the thunder stopped there was all these crack crack crack sounds from the house next door. Mommy said that it was a silly holiday where people like to blow themselves up and shoot gun powder into the air. Bowling elves in the sky and then crackers. Where’s a girl to hide? Oh, Peanut’s bed, of course, with Louise and Nine. We were all kind of shook up. Why don’t people do anything quietly!
We are speechless! Thank you, Peanut, for saving us, and Mommy, for my new thunder shirt.
Happy Wednesday!

Peanut and I transported this very cute and shy pocket pittie from a shelter in Delaware to a foster home in Maryland. We called her ‘Baby.’ She was such a sweetie. Would you have room in your heart for her? If so, please contact Canine Nation. She brightened our day. No words are needed to see how happy she was from some attention. She did not want to leave us when we dropped her off.
Happy Wednesday!

I am sure that most of you have heard about the animals that have become sick and died because of contaminated dog and cat food from China. Since 2007, they have found MELAMINE in pet food and treats. Were you aware however, that since then the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has reported over 4,800 complaints and 1,000+ dogs, 24 cats, and at least 3 people have died? Most of this has been linked to Chicken JERKY TREATS.
According to an article in The Capital newspaper (Tuesday, June 17, 2014) by Dr, Francine Rattner, a veterinarian at South Arundel Animal Hospital in Maryland, samples were taken by the FDA recently of chicken jerky treats from veterinarians across the United States who treated dogs that became ill after eating them. It is shocking to find that the chemical analysis shows the treats contain two really bad things – the insect repellent DEET and the drug AMANTADINE.
DEET is a common insect repellent and pesticide. Amantadine is a drug used to treat Parkinson’s disease, some types of flu viruses, and for pain management in dogs. Dr Rattner supposes that maybe the poultry farmers were using it to prevent avian influenza in their chickens, though it is not legal to use that drug on poultry in the US.
There is no direct proof that the contaminants in the jerky treats are responsible for the problems, so the FDA has not recalled the Chinese-made treats and many stores still sell them.
I thought that I was being smart by avoiding treats labeled “Made in China,” but, what I learned was that packages can be labeled “Made in the USA,” even if they include ingredients sourced from other countries (since it is put together here). The only way that you can actually know where the ingredients come from is to contact the maker of the product, and if you are lucky enough to get the right person, they can tell you where their source is.
Bottom line: If you want to feed your dog jerky treats, make them yourself or do without.
For some reason, Sofie will go in everyone else’s pool but her own. Louise, who won’t go in most pools does like her own (well at least if Mom steps in to get her started). Go figure?
