Surprise Visit

Laura Nagy came for a visit around noon and brought a big bag of dog biscuits.  As always she was a big hit and cause quite a commotion with Otis and Kopol.  I tried to get video of Hurricane Kopol  but I screwed it up.  Laura is our running partner and mother to Gunner, the German Short Hair Pointer.  Here's a link to a video of all of us in action in the Superstition Mountains near Phoenix.  Thanks Laura.

Kopol's vet. Dr. Jackie called today to check up on him.  We haven't spoke with her since his last office visit on 11/19.  It seems like Kopol might be losing weight and Rachel told Dr. Jackie this. Her response "if this is cancer we are dealing with then we need to change his diet."  For the last few weeks Kopol has been on a white rice and chicken breast diet.  "Cancer loves carbohydrates" she said, so now we need to switch over to a protein based diet.  Grain free, dry dog food, chicken breasts and cottage cheese.  This meant that the huge pot of rice Rachel cooked up today, in the water used to boil the chicken, is now for Otis.  Dinner time is always exciting for the boys but tonight the preparations were just a little more special.  Here they are waiting (not allowed in the kitchen) at the kitchen door.
