Just wanted to let you know that we've received a copy of Franklin's book. My children love it! My youngest can't seem to say his name, yet, but she refers to him as "Sprinkle" or "Sprinklin" and she loves searching for him in the pictures! Great book! :)

I am back for the end of the day report. The item ID at White Dog Bone is: WH000148 entitled Wholesome Hide USA Rawhide Superthick Retriever Roll Dog Chew (10"). They are so large that the dogs were astounded. As I mentioned earlier Reese did a lot of growling even after Randy had taken his to another room. I finally thought she considered it prey and was growling at it. I'm not sure she has enough voice left to bark. She got herself into every possible position/contortion she could think of to better attack and make progress. When I last collected them, hers was significantly smaller than Randy's. Although I think he had a good time, he is not as big a chewer as she is. I think in part Reese may have been growling because she couldn't gulp it down!!! Success!! I may post pics tomorrow after I check to see which blog the reference was in. They are both very tired dogs!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Melissa, Each dog has developed his/her own technique with the hide rolls. I had to go to Birmingham so I took the rolls away from them and then fed them "on time" when I got home. Then Randy growled after eating which I thought was associated with the rolls so I gave each their own and growled quite a bit but Randy finally went to the bed room so she seems calming some. I do think they are the things that will help save her teeth and keep them occupied, although I may have to take them away at times.
Melissa, The super Wholesome Hide rolls arrived this morning and I nearly fainted because they are so big and the rawhide that was rolled is very think. I think it will be great if they learn how to chew on them. I am wondering if I am going to have to return the other 4 for smaller ones but I hope not. Even Reese is looking frustrated but is trying to work on hers but she can hear noises from another room where Randy is working on his so we will see what happens. They certainly succeed in providing something that will require slow chewing. Reese is my gulper and she is frustrated because she can't gulp a large mouthful down, where as Randy is patiently chewing away!! This will be interesting to see how it goes.

Melissa, I found Wholesome Hide retriever super rolls on whitedogbone.com for about $5 for a 10" roll. I am hoping that that will be something that will slow Reese down. Lois
I really like the pic of Frank in his booties with the mountain backdrop. Kinda looks like eastern WA. He's a striking-looking dog. Try a cooling vest if he gets hot. I think the Chillybuddy works, but you need a custom size to fit a corgi -- or cut down the girth strap on a Medium.
I may try those fleece booties. Beca (& Mishka) was kind enough to give me a set of RuffWear booties. Will have to modify them a bit.
Thanx for reminding Me of the issuewiththe rescue. you got Kirbyfrom,but I haven't heard a word out of the site,so probably not anything to worry about.So sad when people don't do what they profess to do.Hope he finds a great home.Take care.
Thanks Melissa, we haven't tried the Calming Treats. Think we will try them at home before the next trip. Not sure how we will know if they are working, Tenby is such a couch potatoe at home. I think the fireworks over the 4th is what really did him in. We were at the beach and and stayed inside the RV, but he could hear them. Chepstow could care less if one went off next to him
Melissa, I have a quick question. I know you tired some over the counter anixety meds for Kirby and I need your opioion. Tenby is a homebody and we have been doing some traveling in the RV. Most of the time he is OK with new places but at times he gets nervous. I am looking for something that I can give him when he starts to feel out of sorts. It would need to work semi quickly but not drug him out. He takes tramadol daily and sometimes diphenhydraine when he gets itchy. You have had so much experience with this, do you have a favorite?
Congratulations on your beautiful new Corgi. Have you named him yet? What a lucky little guy he is to have found a loving home. Too bad you have a friend named Benjamin. I thought it was a great recommendation. Maybe your friend would be honored?? Teddy was a good one, too. I struggle with names. haha. I'm the one that named my rescue Rafa!
I just posted 3 pictures of my new Cardi (named him Phantom btw). They are from my phone. Will try to get on and post one from my real camera layer tonight.

Nice pic of Frank in the mountains. Kinda miss seeing him with Kirby....
Been wondering how things are going? Is Kirby settling in or is he getting back to his holy terror self?
How are things going?
Just wondering how the move went and if things are settling down?
