We have been blessed with some gorgeous days! Look at handsome Sammy! Little Bear and Nugget however are a bit miserable. Little Bear is experiencing skin allergies. She will lick and lick and develop a sore so on goes the e-collar! Poor thing. I do believe it is because I changed their kibble. This happened a few years back and the same thing happened...so why did I do it again? Well, the last time, I changed to an organic high end kibble, thinking I am doing the best for my babies. We went through the allergy testing, got the shots, etc. but that didn't stop the incessant itching. Then I figured it out...the new food! I put her back on Purina Fit and Trim and voila! But this time, only two weeks ago, I put her on that new Purina Pro that you can only get from the vets...still a Purina product so no worry, right? Wrong! Her itching has lessened now that she is back on her Fit and Trim. Will still get a cortizone shot hopefully today!
Nugget on the other hand, is experiencing the cruciate disease on both legs now. He got a wart removed that must have been super sore. He has two stitches therefore, the e-collar is a must. Will take them out today! He has been such a good dog about it! He is also on Deramax. I finally relinguished due to the liver issues these anti-inflammatories can cause, but his limping was awful! Will get the liver 'blood' tested every 6 months.
Look who I saw on my way out to lunch yesterday? I think that is Brave One with Sunny and one of Sunny's 'cousins' as this is the same field little Sunny was sleeping in during those hots days in July! 
Our pretty pear! She is gorgeous but bears no more fruit so I purchased two little pear trees so help in that department....The fawns killed one...bad deer!
The Harvest Moon was spectacular though my photo does not do justice to God's wonders....and byw, why in the (expletive) does the U.S. have to bomb the moon? Leave things alone! I am so tired of destruction. I think that money could go towards better things especially during these trying times! Humans do not need to live on the moon, stay in a hotel on the moon, etc. ...did you hear that one? A cool 4 million will allow you a three day stay up there...ahhh, don't get me started!
Look at Little Bear! Poor baby girl!
What a stretch Coty! Are you going to run a marathon?
Even plants like a little bling...see her diamond?
Pretty pansies have survived the cold so far. I covered them last night! Brrrrrr.
Pretty Pear in the evening shows such brilliant colors! My purple Mum I got from Lowes last year for only a dollar came back to display such beauty! Look how big she grew!

we fed our Sammy chicken - and no licking in result...........
Good to hear from you !!!
Those are big collars. We bought one for Bella .. she was licking her incision on the car ride home from the vet .. so far we haven't had to put it on her.
She's doing ok so far. Pain is a lot better for her. Now the recovery ...
What beautiful pictures. I love the one of the deer and the harvest moon. You are so lucky to have deer in your yard, except the damage they can do.
Sorry you furry friends are not feeling so good. I do think those collars are hilarious. They look so degrading. Poor things. Hope they get better soon.
Poor Babies, they look pitiful in their cone collars. If they only knew it was for their own good. Interesting about the allergy flaring up with a change within the same companies food. The guide dog organization is having us all feed our dogs Purina Pro Plan shredded chicken and rice. When I was a child we had a Dalmatian with terrible skin allergies, he was miserable most of the time and there wasn't much available for dogs like that back then. Luckily, now there are more options and foods to try.
Your flowers are still very pretty. Your dogs look so healthy and happy, you give them such wonderful care!
Great post. I can't decide which picture I like the most!
Beautiful pictures! Your doggies are adorable! Oh, they hate those E-collars, don't they? They do work wonders though. I wish you all the best with your precious pups' issues. And I thank you so much for your kind words regarding the loss of my Roxy, as well as my kitty woes! I so appreciate it :) -Tammy
Lovely photo of Sammy, he looks so handsome! I hope the other sweet pups get their issues worked out. And I so agree with you about the moon!
harvest moon is so beautiful!!!! hope your pup gets better.
Great post! Sammy reminds me of Abbie, a black lab I dogsit. I love the picture of the moon and the pasture w/the deer...lovely! I agree with you about the moon....keep it precious! Next year, I want to get some mums for fall!
Hope your doggies are feeling better soon! I know what you mean about the dog food. My older dogs I used to have, one would break out with hot spots, itch like crazy. He had to get cortisone shots too. The vet recommended us to change his food to lamb and rice. We did, and he quit having issues! No more expensive vet bills!
So good to see the deer!! I love that moon picture! Gorgeous!
Your poor doggies!!! They look so cute and sad! Always love the deer!!
Sorry your pups are having some dog days. They will be feeling much better soon with your great care. The picture of the harvest moon with the deer is stunning, beautiful!
Oh that photo of the moon over the mountain is LOVELY! I know just what you mean about it not doing justice to the beauty. I have to figure out how to properly capture the moon.
And those poor doggies!! But you've got them covered and they will be good soon. However, I can't help but laugh a little with doggies wearing cones. ;)
