Let's see... quit spending so much on lava lamps and spend more on dog food like Iams or Science Diet. Dogs eat their own crap cause they're lacking nutrients. XD

This is exactly what we are doing Keith - barely let them hit the ground before we remove the tempting treat. And they eat good food, we just don't let them eat much of it. Fit dogs put less stress on their joints than fat, pudgy critters do.

GROSS ALERT!!!!!!! IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH DO NOT READ!!!!!!!!!

We got rid of one dog this past winter that started eating the poo AS IT WAS COMING OUT. . . .

I haven't had chocolate soft-serve ice cream since :(
