Comment on Houston Dog Ranch Trainer “Advice” by Peggy Tinsley

The Houston Dog Ranch is a wonderful place. Very secure and great folks. They really care about the dogs there. My Sampson (lab) goes there every Friday for “doggie day care”. He plays with other dogs his size, as well as the staff and goes swimming in the summer time. It’s a great way for Sampson to interact with other dogs and get more exersize than I can provide working all week. And he just loves it and comes home completely pooped out! Their boarding arrangments are very cute, little bunk houses with an area porch and small yard.

My car was recently broken into as I washed my dog. Actually, as we were walking out, we caught them and they fled in their car (with my purse that was in my trunk and my Sirius radio). I love the boutique, but be careful. I never thought I’d be robbed at a dog boutique, but I guess these days, anything can happen.

Comment on The Cost of Feeding Raw Food To Your Pet by mmantor

Stephanie, I don’t know about buying from grocery stores but you can buy from a local Raw Food Distributor, Bones To Go, and here is the pricing for Chicken necks (I emailed Tracey, the owner, and asked her)
:
she can pre-order them from me by the case (8 X 5lb bags) cost is $4 per 5lb bag or she can order by the fresh case for $25 per 40lb case and she would have to bag them herself (takes about 30 mins or so if she’s quick). They are more expensive if she only needs small amounts (1lb bags available) or 5lb bags but not an entire case ($5.50 per 5lb bag) but she may find other things here she wants to try as well….

I feed raw to my dogs and am trying to find a more economical way of doing this. I usually pay over $1 a lb for chicken necks at the grocery store. How can I get a case for 50 cents a lb? Is this something I ask for at the butcher? Or is there a checken processing plant in Houston where I can get these?

If anyone knows, please post a comment here also. I will check back.

Thank you.

Thanks for the terrific article! Having animals in a home teaches us all a lot. Plus, they can be so dang funny. Our dog makes us laugh all the time - a blessing like no other.

Thanks Mariah, for sharing your thoughts. By the way, your cousin Angela had an easy time persuading her mother into getting more pets. In fact, later in life, her mother talked Angela into having a second dog!

A good 5-star article from a 5-star writer, well-organized and logical. It speaks well of the cooperation of the animals and the whole family getting along together
