Dug Up at Dogster: January 2023 Dog Events and Dog Holidays

Last year, my rescue Emmy, pictured above partying hard in her 2023 glasses, injured her back. It forced our family to slow down, relax and give Emmy the...

Fiber is a complex carbohydrate found in plants with both soluble and insoluble fiber matter. Is fiber healthy for dogs? Insoluble fiber passes through the body mostly unchanged and it helps bulk up the fecal matter to stimulate the body’s elimination process. The increased bulk also helps the anal glands function normally and reduces the risk of impaction. Dr. Gary Richter, Founder of Ultimate Pet Nutrition, says feeding higher...
