Has anyone seen this documentary on Netflix? I feel like Karen is talking to me! I'm not quite halfway through it, but right now they are talking about BHA being a toxic preservative in dog food. And they are also talking about biologically apropriate foods for animals (which don't include corn.) They haven't said anything about sourcing yet. But so far it's fascinating (and kind of old news if you read the food group)

He says "thank you" too, lol! <3

That's a good idea and one I need to put some thought into. I have plans to have an SUV in the next few years so as the car height goes up something like that could be very useful. 

The dog wash has stairs up to the tubs. Ava doesn't mind them, but she has a hard time coming down - they're on wheels so the owner stands by them to make sure they don't move and she doesn't want to walk beside her. My shy girl. I think a ramp might even be more useful than the stairs. 

Poor JD. I wish we could just fix it for him. The girls send him all the love.

Thanks, Stacy. He sends it right back to them!

 I know not everyone has a boogie board at their disposal, but they are lightweight and easily portable, and can bear weight.  We have used a boogie board as a ramp for our RV stairway.  We made sure one of us had the bottom braced with our feet.  I wonder if you could angle a boogie board from the ground to the bottom seat edge using the lip of the car door?

I'm new to this site & a little slow finding information I need. I have a 12 week old medium doodle (that I'm totally in love with) and I'm confused about food. My vet says stick w/well known names that have been around forever ie Purina Puppy Food. I looked at the ingredients, which was as long as the package, and I didn't recognize hardly anything. I saw on another site where Taste of The Wild, Fromm and Blue Buffalo are highly recommended (and pretty darn expensive ). We have an 8 yr old Maltipoo (9 lbs) that we add chicken pieces and carrot pieces to the top of her hard food and she basically eats the people food and a bite or two if the dog food. If we start doing this w/our doodle... that's going to be a lot of people food because she is hungry all the time !! Any advice will be appreciated .... I need to order food today !!!!

Hi Rosa, we have a list of recommended food brands right here in the Doodle Kisses Food Group. Taste of the Wild and Blue Buffalo are not among our recommended brands. In order to recommend a specific food for your pup, I will need more information, and we really don;t want to highjack Stacy's discussion that way, lol. Please copy and paste what you've posted here into a new discussion in the Food Group, and we'll be happy to help you.
