...made from the same components of the vitamin. One Wellington horse veterinarian also told TIME that Biodyl, or "a compound a little off-label," is widely used in the U.S. "You don't know how many times Franck's has compounded this and never had a problem," says the vet. But he predicted its use would drop off sharply now. State investigators have yet to comment...
...best comments you will find on the web." That speaks highly for my readers. The blog is a great gift. I use it to write about anything, often topics of great personal meaning to me. A typical entry will run 2,000 to 5,000 words, and I vet all the comments so we aren't plagued with the half-witted immaturity of so many blogs. I also respond top a lot of them. A discussion of Evolution vs. Creationism has so far topped 3,000 literate, thoughtful comments across three entries. Darwin is one of my heroes...
...consider normal - all-natural pet food, expensive veterinary procedures - was just a little while ago considered as excessive and silly as dressing your dog up in a little tuxedo.

My family thought this was the most incredible thing. Some of them have dogs and they looked at us as if we were these ridiculous, overindulgent spendthrifts. To me this said something. Sometime between when they...
...First, when it comes to decisions about money and pets, the number of people who don't have a choice increases. People's houses get foreclosed and they have to rent somewhere and the landlord doesn't take pets - well, they don't have a choice anymore. Similarly, at vet hospitals when the vet says, "Listen we can do this procedure that might save your animal but it will cost $8,000." More people are saying, "Well I don't have $8,000." But for people who do still have a choice, you're seeing a willingness to scrimp...
