DWB News and the lure of liver

We were so sad to hear that Miss Snickers lost her fight today. We did not know her until the DWB community rallied in her support. It takes a special dog to stir up that kind of love. Be sure to stop by and leave a note for her family.

In other DWB news we promised Dozer that we would try to get out the vote for this month's Awesome Blog award. As always it is some stiff competition but since he is a two time member of the DWBK club (Dogs With Busted Knees) we feel he could use a win.

Also, I posted a topic/poll about Wordpress and Blogger over at the Bone Zone... if you care to weigh in, head on over and check it out (after you vote for Dozer of course!).


So here is some lighter fare for today...



When I make liver training treats for Moose he hangs out in the kitchen with a full blown case of 'crazy eye' (biggify for full effect).
It might be one of those things that only I can see on his face but this is the look he gets when he is in a euphoric trance!
When the treats are cooled and I start packing them up he starts his crazy loop of tricks to try to get one. The video shows how motivated he can be for liver!

UPDATE: The liver treats we use are originally Honey's recipe and I posted about them back in September. It is just cooked liver but for people like me who don't really cook or eat liver I needed Honey's instructions!

Also, Thanks so much for your thoughts on my Moose's romping abilities. The consensus was that if he was doing other less strenuous stuff and happy then he probably was not missing it and that made me feel better. Writing that post made me realize that his recovery has been sort of stalled at 85% for the past few months and reminded me that there are things I can do to get him stronger (leaning less). I am going to work on some weight bearing exercises and maybe re-evaluate the situation if I can get him closer to 100%. Thanks everyone!
