So glad you are joining me today for the Dogs N Pawz Blog Hop called Tuesday’s Tails.
New posts go up on Tuesday but you can link up and post when you want all week-long. The whole purpose is to feature cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, etc. so when you link up is up to you! Even pets from PetFinder, are fine. Let’s just get them all homes!
Dogs N Pawz said “I also want to encourage all of you to share each other’s Tuesday’s Tails posts on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and whatever other social media channels you use. The more we share the more likely we are to get the word out!”
Let’s hop to it! Urgent fosters needed and, of course, forever families. Lucy, Jacobi, and Martha are still sadly sitting in the shelter. Contact CanineNation.org if you can help.

If you are a regular DogDaz blog reader then you know that Louise has a very sensitive stomach and Sofie has developed allergies to “who knows what and possibly everything.” Every once and a while, I give their tummies a break with my simple DogDaz chicken and rice dinner. This is not their regular diet since I do not add the required vitamins and minerals that a dog should have to maintain good health. I use this to get their systems back on track. Some people say to fast your animal for 24 hours before starting any change, but I don’t do that. If your fur-baby’s tummy is out of whack, you might want to try this for a couple of days.
Note: Please make sure to get your dog proper animal care with a Vet when they are feeling poorly. This post is by no means a cure for anything. I believe that food is medicine, and medicine is food and just wanted to share a simple tummy tamer.
Ingredients (for 12 cups):
4 pieces plain boiled CHICKEN (As lean as possible. I cut all the fat and skin off.)
1 cup white RICE
(Optional) 1/2 to 3/4 cup 100% pure PUMPKIN (NOT pumpkin pie mix, which is full of sugar and other stuff)
Directions:
Time to prepare: about 90 minutes all together
– Boil water (DO NOT ADD SALT. Dogs do not need salt and too much can cause sodium ion poisoning).
– When boiling, reduce heat to simmer, cover pot and cook about 30 minutes or until the meat basically falls off the bone.
– Remove chicken and let cool.
– Save the broth (you will need some later and it also makes great chicken soup stock). Skim the fat from the cooled chicken broth for the rice.
– When cooled, debone the chicken into small chunks and get rid of any still remaining skin or fat. (Think LEAN.)
2. Prepare the Rice
– Measure 2.5 cups (591.47 ml) of the broth (from previous step) into a pan and bring to a boil.
– Add 1 cup (236.58 ml) of white rice (easiest to digest for upset tummy) to broth and reboil. Then cover tightly and simmer for 20 minutes.
– The rice will be soggy and soft when done.
– Let rice cool.
3. Mix Chicken and Rice
– Add the rice to the chicken and blend them together with a fork.
4. Add Pumplin (with or without help from a cat)
5. Feed hungry dogs
– How much you feed them depends on the dog’s size, I give Louise (who is 58 lbs) 1 1/2 cups and Sofie (47 lbs) 2/3 cup, but don’t have any idea of the calorie or protein count.
– Mix with at least 1/4 cup of warm water to make it saucy.

Mojo wasn’t home today, but Uncle Stan invited us over to swim with baby Zelda in the dog pool anyway. It was so much fun. Louise really wanted to play with Zelda’s toy but she would not go in the pool to get it. I, on the other hand, was brave and got all the way in, at least by the steps. I could like this swim thing, even though I still have trouble with puppies. – Sofie “the fish” Bear

Baby elephant drinking. When they are this young they don’t yet know how to use their trunks to drink water, so it just submerged its face.

How fun to spend the day walking with Mom in the sunshine. She does make us pose in all these silly places, but we do anything for her.
This is a Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop. Thanks to BlogPaws for the hop. Head over there and see what they are blogging about.
