Can your Dog or Cat Get Swine Flu?

Watching all the coverage on TV, I couldn't help but ask "could my dog and cat friends get the swine flu?" I wondered about it and thought some of our readers may too.  Check out this article at About.com's Veterinary Medicine page to learn why it is very unlikely.

Happy Wednesday from Salsa!

Happy Wednesday from the adorable Salsa Measom!  Salsa is the proud pooch of Carol and Allen Measom from Raptorware, and a good friend of our resident yoga-dog Tiki Winkler!  

Isabella Gets Purdy!

So this weekend when we were up in Conroe, Isabella joined her Cavalier Cousins, Ricky and Rudy, and went to Purdy Pawz near Lake Conroe.  What a great place and even greater groomers!  If you are ever up in that neck of the woods, make sure you book your pooch an appointment!  Here is Isabella donning her bows and looking Purdy!

Dogs Gone Wild!

We took the dogs to the lake over the weekend and took this video of them doing their laps :-)!

Isabella Post Walk!

Isabella just returned from her walk with Brett and the other pooches. She is on her way to reaching her weight loss goal :-)!

My First Attempt at Videos! It's Gonna be a Bumpy Ride!

Okay so I got a Flip video camera today and just started playing around with it.  I have every intention of posting fun vids of the people we meet and the places we go.  Bare with me :-), my cinematography is not so great, but I am a relatively fast learner.  

Here is Isabella playing just after her dinner.  It is a daily ritual and one that she lives for!
