"Well, it's only a few hundred miles, and when we get there, we'll just turn her loose. Let's just throw her in the back seat." No, not your mother-in-law ... we're talking about your best friend. Here's how to do it right when you take Fido along on your driving holiday (and one thing not mentioned, be sure to have a proper restraint in the car - best is a harness that attaches to a seat belt).

The Straight Poop about DOG HEALTH AND NUTRITION

I never met a dog that didn't love a lawn. They love to sniff around, pee, poop, scratch when they're through, all on a lawn, and sometimes even eat a few blades of grass. Now, what about all those chemicals we and our neighbors put on our lawns? "Kansas State professors offer lawn chemical safety tips for pets."

The Straight Poop featured DOG BOOK

Colter was the runt of the litter, and Rick Bass took him only because nobody else would. Soon, though, Bass realized he had a raging genius on his hands, and he raided his daughters' college fund to send Colter to the best schools. 'Colter' is an interspecies love story that vividly captures the relationship between humans and dogs. Like all of Bass's work, it is passionate, poetic, and original.

"Colter: The True Story of the Best Dog I Ever Had", by Rich Bass.
