Ugh, Belly Aches

Since Sunday, Happy's stomach has not been well.  She has been having the runs but she doesnt seem to be affected by it much.  She was still running around and being her silly self.  My dad told me not to feed her anything for a day.  I said "NO" and fed her anyways.  Bad move.  My dog walker told me the same and to hold food from her for 24 hours.  If she gets better, then feed her some mushy rice and chicken but if it continues for a couple more days to go visit the vet.  

So my dog walker (Heidi) took away Happy's food.  She didnt seem to mind at first but after the 24 hours passed and I fed her the rice and chicken, she was eating like a maniac.  Needless to say, her poop is better and she is now back on her Natural Balance.

I'm gonna receive a package from Best Bully Sticks today so I am excited to see how Happy enjoys her "fish" sticks!  I will post her reaction.  I hope its a good one!

12/2 EDIT:  Happy did not enjoy the fish sticks.  She licked them a bit but she never even bit into them.  They seemed like they were going to be really good but nope.  Happy Rejects the Fish Sticks!

Bully Sticks


Hi, my name's Wendy.  I have created this blog for my dog Happy Feet aka Happy aka Puppy Face.  She is a Great Pyrenees and almost 2 years old.  We took her in after a friend could not take care of her anymore due to her size and her "wild side."  She was a bit of a crazy dog with no manners at all.   I recall days when all I could do is bury my hands in my face and cry because I felt like I could not control her especially since she is a large dog too (and I am not so large.)  Luckily I found time and a private trainer to help me with her manners.  Her biggest issue was that she was not shown enough attention so the only way she could get it was to bite people.  It was extremely tough on me because she would run at full speed and just start biting me and tearing my clothes.  After a few hard months, we finally came to a truce.  I dont know how it happened but it just did.  She is now one of the most amazing dogs ever.  She is so smart, cute, quirky, and goofy.  

So the reason for this blog is to review products, training tips, and whatever else that makes Happy a Happy dog!  I feed her so many different kinds of treats and I would love to share what I find with other people.  Also, I have 2 cats too so I might throw in a few cat facts here and there.  

Thanks for reading,
Wendy
