WHY?<BR/><BR/>Had I read that beforehand, I wouldn't have tagged you, but now that I've read it, I've learned a lot! And the fudgesicle expert is going in my rolodex, because you never know when fudgecicle expertise (or any other kind) is going to be a critical issue.<BR/>-- GrantAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-62225071245630304092007-05-23T08:21:00.000-07:002007-05-23T08:21:00.000-07:00Johann the Dog: No offense taken.

When I said "someone who has found a clever way to make money out of their blogaholism which I greatly resent" (<A HREF="http://www.finchester.org/dogs/dog_diary/2007/05/tagging-in-blogosphere-wikipedia-and.html" REL="nofollow">(here)</A> what I was referring to was that I hadn't found a clever way to make money off of my ludicrous blogging habit. And I was honest about it being a clever way, and I left your post up (I have deleted a couple from obviously purely commercial sites) and gave a link because you give good, nonmoney-making info, too, and little tidbits about yourself. In good conscience, though, I don't want to supply a regular link to a site that does make money off of clicks or advertising without saying so. <BR/><BR/>-ellenElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-19647805788456251972007-05-23T07:58:00.000-07:002007-05-23T07:58:00.000-07:00Johann had to lose a couple of lbs after his broke...Johann had to lose a couple of lbs after his broken metacarpal this past winter - we did the green beans and pumpkin too, and cut back on kibble, worked really well. Good luck with your extra lbs.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to say I enjoy your blog, sorry if I offended in any way. Not my intent. With my site and occasionally agility lessons given, I'm just trying to earn a little extra cash to run my dogs; cause that's what we really love.

Dogs who can't sit on your lap without thereafter requiring that you get thigh-replacement surgery just aren't RIGHT! :-)<BR/><BR/>However--congrats on the weight loss. That's excellent. Green beans might be a good idea. Works for me, too.<BR/><BR/>-ellenElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-80973499895510584802007-05-21T20:16:00.000-07:002007-05-21T20:16:00.000-07:00When Fagan needed to drop weight, we cut back on t...When Fagan needed to drop weight, we cut back on the kibble and substituted green beans to add bulk. He lost 30 lbs over 4 months or so (he's down to 130 -- which is much better for his hips and rebuilt knee).<BR/><BR/>DaniAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-44271150773209436242007-05-21T11:26:00.000-07:002007-05-21T11:26:00.000-07:00It's easy for those rough coated BCs to hide a lit...It's easy for those rough coated BCs to hide a little extra weight. I kept thinking that Jaime looked a lot fluffier than he used to and almost choked when I weighed him and found he'd gained 7--count 'em--7 pounds!<BR/>I've cut back on his kibble and have been trying to work him more. This summer I've located a pond where I think I'll be able to swim him on a daily basis. Hopefully that will help when it gets too hot to do anything else (pretty much all of July, August and September).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
