I don't know if I believe all that. My childhood was in a less politically correct era, so we fed our pets table scraps, canned food and dry food. Like in Bevis and Butthead, "What do you feed your dog? Duh, garbage." Well not quite, but anyway, when I had to sell fundraising chocolate bars for the football dance team, stored in boxes in the living room, my dog got into them one night and ate a bunch. We got up the next morning and saw chewed up wrappers all over the floor, and the dog wagging his tail, wanting his breakfast.

My dogs get all kinds of leftovers, including stuff hubby leaves in the fridge and won't eat. They are happy to get it. It's a treat.

I just groomed them both myself, after finding out it was going to cost $80 each at the groomers. There was enough hair to stuff a pair of pillows if I wanted to. $160 saved, both dogs happy.

I thought I was going to have a new doggie...

Pulled up into my driveway, something told me to ge out before backing up into my spot. Got out and there was a black medium sized doggie that was behind my vehicle, there would have not been any way for me to see her before backing up ! As I got back into the vehicle, lol, I sat down and she hoped in, leaving four claw scratches on tummy, but at that time I didn't know :huh: . She had a collar on, but no addy or telephone number on it. So, I drove across the street to neighbours home, by the time we got over there it started to down pour, we both hopped out, she followed me up to the door, knocked and the guy answered, but she wasn't his. She followed me back into the vehicle we hopped in and I thought cool maybe she will be staying with me. Well, decide to go west to the next neighbours. It was still pouring down, we got out, knocked on door, and the woman opened her door, and yup the doggie was hers. Her name is Lady, I told her if she wasn't yours I was going to keep her. This doggie was so very nice, a very good doggie, her characteristics were of my Cleo, mixed in with Emma, and Duke. Duke, being silly happy go lucky, Emma, with the big brown eyes, and Cleo being all black and just follow me wherever i would go. With all the love from all three.

Oh, and I discovered the scratches after returning home, they started to hurt, like a burning feeling, lol. All of them around four inches long.

I hope I don't see her again, this is because I don't want her walking or crossing the road with the stupid crazy fast don't give a shit what they run over drivers. I would say something else, but it is a very bad bad horrific story about what happened to a lot of doggies.

SAFEGUARD ORGANIC STANDARDS

Organic Pet Food Rules About To Be Axed​

Have you noticed how hard it is to find organic pet food?
Purina recently discontinued its only USDA Organic line, Castor & Pollux, but there’s still Tender & True, an independent brand that was the first pet food to earn the USDA Organic seal (in 2014).
One of the reasons the pet food market hasn’t developed is lack of regulations. If the USDA doesn’t have rules for organic pet food, they’ve got nothing to enforce when there’s fraud. That makes investing in organic certification risky. You might have to compete with fakes.
That problem was about to be solved with organic pet food regulations that were finalized earlier this year, but now the Trump administration says they’re cancelling them.
The lack of those regulations threatens the credibility of the organic label in the pet food industry.
This doesn’t just hurt pet food producers. As the TruthAboutPetFood.com reports, “If these regulations are cut, there would be nothing in place to prevent an organic feed grade pet food from sourcing substandard animal products from diseased animals, uninspected animals, condemned animals, or animals deemed unfit for human consumption.”
Yuck!
