    Enough is Enough

    I give Sally a glucosamine morning , and evening . I boost her into the back seat of the truck . she doesn't let me help on the way out of the truck . but she steps from the seat to the door seal to the ground . I try to make things as easy on her as I can . she's a big dog weighs...

    Enough is Enough

    sounds like your Manny is a good dog . wishing him the best speedy recovery . it sure is easy to get attached to these dogs . I'd be lost without Sally . when Sally needs out , through the night , she touches her cold nose on me . that gets me up . if she can't touch her nose on me ...

    140gr Hornady Monoflex

    140gr Hornady Monoflex
