    So very sorry. The personality of those huge dogs are incredible... but their lives are so short! I too would wait and watch the pain level, then put the dog down. All of those treatment options sound bad to me. So sorry!! :hugs

    Thupt.... I am too old for all this change! I prefer stopping at a "proper" gas station where the bathroom is horrid... or peeing on the side of the road... And stopping at a Sonic to eat. :old

    Well... WAY too early for us to have spring..... berms along the highways are still higher than my car... BUT, the road was mostly clear of snow and ice.... AND ... THERE WAS ROAD CONSTRUCTION!!!!!! So... it must be spring, right? :idunno

    So... an evil 40 today at my house... but with the ground so cold... no slush... just ice. So yes... I fell on the way to the car.. :rolleyes: Not bad.. just a bit bruised on one knee. Ya know... (even before the fall today) I have trouble remembering which one is my "good" knee! They both...

    You can also just drink the sap water. We take a birch branch, bend it down, pinch off the buds, rubber band a plastic bag over it. The sap fills up the bag. No, NOT a gallon worth... but it can be done with small trees or even saplings. We use it as a spring tonic... drink it as is.
