Preheat oven to 350. Lightly oil a cookie sheet. Combine flour, dry milk, salt, garlic powder and sugar. Cut in meat drippings until mixture resembles corn meal. Mix in egg. Add enough water so that mixture forms a ball. Using your fingers, pat out dough onto cookie sheet to half inch thick. Cut with cookie cutter or knife and remove scraps. Scraps can be formed again and baked. Bake 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from tray and cool on rack.
I just come back from the vet today and found one of my dog has arthritis. Although she is 15 years old, the vet stated that it, like any disease can occur at any age.
The symptoms appear to be mild and we are trying aspirin for now. Some of the symptoms are:
Difficulty jumping into the car and onto the bed
A slight limp in the back leg
She still tries to act like a puppy and enjoys wading in the cool streams we have around here. We are trying aspirins for now as this may be the safest approach for her age.
Alway check with your veterinarian before giving your dog any medication.
Let us know about your dog.

Wag More, Bark Less
“Scratch a dog and you’ll find a permanent job.”
- Franklin P. Jones
The dachshund is a short-legged, elongated dog breed of the hound family initially developed to scent, chase, and hunt hole-dwelling animals. Due to the long, narrow build, they are sometimes referred to as a wiener dog, hot dog, or sausage dog.
Dachshunds are playful, fun dogs, known to be strong-headed or stubborn, making them a challenge to train. However, dachshunds are a breed extremely loyal to their owners with a temperament and body language which give the impression that they don’t know about their relatively small and comical stature. They’re known for their deep, soulful eyes and complex and telling facial expressions.
Time to make sure everybody enjoys the Holidays. Take your dog on a nice walk with the whole family (dogs love being in a pack) or clean up, shift the coffee table, and play with that new tug toy or squeaky plush reindeer. You know you’ll have fun.
If your dog is not confined at night but may wander at will around the house, it’s important to inform sleep-over guests that a sleeping dog may be snoozing anywhere in the dark. Head off the tragedy of having a small dog stepped on by a roaming, drowsy guest. And, avoid the other tragedy of having a protective dog startled by a midnight stranger. “Happy Holiday to all, and to all a good-night!
