Columbia River….”generational prepping”. That’s a great thing! Hoping that will increase with ours if/when we finally live closer again. They’re in that “too busy to breathe” stage of life… 🙁
Namelus… your neighbor’s pigs ..was it that same issue with the quarantine? Wolves vs bison…only if bison is alone and weak. Those things are HUGE and the hide is tough too. They ranch some out in the western high altitude flats. Pretty cool…..tasty too!
Well we’re still having snow and sun. Good moisture. I’ve heard snow [up here or in general? I don’t know] puts down more nitrogen than just rain. Dunno if it’s even true. But I know we don’t have to shovel it now…being warm enough to melt if you just wait for it. Springtime in the Rockies. LOTS easier than winter in the Rockies!!!
Harsh week for XL dog. Theory by now is that SOMEthing was wrong with a particular bag of dog food. Been eating that brand for a year. Has had that flavor plenty times. But poor thing was “running loose”. Got her cleared up with rice and stuff. Then tried mixing that bag with another flavor cuz we weren’t even sure that was the problem. She does occasionally find non-standard issue things to devour… {don’t even imagine it} Gave her a cup of the mixed dog kibble, watered, with mostly rice.
Well, that nite no one slept. Woke us to go OUT QUICK NOW to do business X3. Then ’round about 5am….she just barfed the rest of it all over the carpet. Uggg. LOVE the Bissel Green Machine! So…back to rice to settle her. Tossed out the bucket of mixed and the rest of the bag that is now identified as …..somehow toxic to her this time. ???? By now we’ve eased her back to full kibble. She kinda misses her rice but doesn’t need it.
With animal food and our own, do we really know who might have put what where? There’s no recall on it. DH called the company who offered to replace with a bag of something else. No…but we won’t order that flavor again….tho she’s been ok on it. ???? [I’ve mentioned that I hate mysteries…] Anyway, 125# dog with G.I. distress …never a good week. Whew! She’s back to normal and we’re all happy .
OldMtWoman G’nite all …..and have a good time, Daisy!
