Linda, for a moment I thought you might have blocked me, but the more I thought about it. the more I reaIized you might have deleted your account. I share your concerns. I haven't deleted my account, but have taken steps to tlghten things up considerably. I have more than a few concerns about Cambridge Analytica, the Facebook personnel that were evidently embedded in the Trump campaign, both Steve Bannon and John Bolton's names popping up in connection with Cambridge.... It seems to be a very tangled web. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Ch 4 in the UK, for their undercover work. I may still delete my account but since I handle social media for my company on several platforms, it's a bit more complicated. May I share this on FB or would you prefer to just go dark there?

They made it clear it was not a danter issue it was an internal quality control issue.If you have educated yourself on raw feeding you already know it is not a big issue.

Maybe check your computer audio settings. I don't have any problem with the volume. Her volume is higher than his, but I can still hear him and my volume setting is not all the way up on my computer

I understood all but one charge was dismissed and the other will be dismissed in another 6 months. That sounds like no wrongdoing to me, report accurately if you are going to report at all. Read the headline on the photo you are using with this story! Charges dropped!!

The safest way to have a dog ride in a car is in a crate that is securely tied down.

Hi Sally,

Dr Perlmuttter has mentioned on the blog, a number of other foods that could still be causing problems for some individualy. You mght want to take a look at the list to see what you are eating, and maybe eliminate all, then add one at a time back in to figure out what may need to be eliminated from your own diet.

No mention of Haggens, which is not necessarily the cheapest but the quality is always top notch?

Try one called Sleep Genius: Incredibly great for sleeping but it also has a Powernap feature that is calming and restful but allows me to come back energized and focused after only 29 minutes!

Ah Francine, if only. It is incredible to me to listen to the viciousness emanating from my fellow citizens. It has no place in a civil society. I have a feeling it is not a majority at all but it is a vocal minority that shouts down any opposing views.

Francine it may run all night because of the temperature drop at night. Do you have a cover? If not, getting one might help somewhat. It could be that one of them has difficulty sleeping and if so they are undoubtedly short tempered about it and focus even more on what they see rightly or wrongly,as the reason for their lack of sleep. maybe gift them with a white noise machine they could use at night?

I am dealing with a difficult neighbor too, and it is miserable, especially when their actions reduce my property value too. I am just breathing deeply and praying their place will sell soon and they move back to Phoenix, can't happen soon enough for me. I have to stay low key because of my dogs, as one way they would undoubtedly start targeting me is to complain about my dogs.

I hope you can resolve it peacefully. Unfortunately there is often someone like this in a neighborhood it would seem.

Vaccinations are tricky. If the puppies get them too soon, because they still have immunity from their mother the shots may not take. So they are usually given more than one set, after the first just to make sure, in case they were stil immune on some things the first time around. Ideally (jmho) the puppies can be cloistered away from any chance of contact with sick dogs, any outside dogs, for as long as possible so as few vaccinations as possible need to be given. (Though vaccinations for some things are necessary, the combo vaccines can create their own problems for the puppy.) I just had a litter of pups and they got their first shots at 12 weeks, a second set at 14 weeks. I had them titered at 16 weeks to be sure the vaccintions had taken. Just one way to do it. My guess is maybe the puppy might have had a set but it might have been too early.

Ask your vet what precautions you need to take in your yard. too. your little guy will be immune now, but parvo can live in the soil for a long, long time, which poses a risk to other dogs who might come in the yard. It is a horrible disease for puppies to get, so glad to see he is doing so well.

Give him a kiss for me on that sweet little nose. Hope he gets to come home very soon!

Drew, you have the right attitude going into this. Hang tough and reach out to friends if need be. Cancer is all around us in so many varieties. But these days we know people living with cancer, yet it doesn't have them.

I have a young friend who is about to have a stem cell transplant, 6/8 to be exact, after 2 go arounds with AML, (leukemia, which is a blood cancer.) Her attitude and her sense of humor have been a huge factor in helping her get through the rough spots up until now. She is my hero, and I know you will be another one.

Steven and all the rest of your family and friends, my deepest sympathy for your loss of your eldest son. It is beyond comprenhension to understand how one can deal with the death of a child. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this tragically difficult time. You are right to remind us to not let a day go by without actively letting those we love know that we do.

I am crying just reading this. Over the years I have known a number of deeply committed homosexual couples, and though I have lost track of some in the course of several moves,
I would bet they are still together, still caring deeply about each other and bolstered by that love, reaching out to the community, giving back in a number of ways. I am not in CA any more but
would be voting No on 8 if I was.
