The Straight Poop about DOG NUTRITION

For most of us, dog food is such a blind article, or so we think. But it really doesn't need to be. It's all there on the label, folks, and here's a helpful article from a vet to get us started down the path of being responsibly informed about what we put in our best friend's mouth. "Practical Canine Nutrition" by Margaret Muns, DVM.

The Straight Poop guide to DOGS in the NEWS

And you thought you were the only one who is a little nuts about your dog! Wait 'til you see the results of the recent American Animal Hospital Association's National Pet Owner Survey, where, among other astonishing facts, it is reported that 74% of those surveyed said they would go into debt to provide for their animal's well-being. "VIP (Very American Pets)" by Rebecca Gardyn, from American Demographics, March 2001.

The Straight Poop featured DOG BOOK

A reader writes: "This beautiful little book consists of about forty short chapters about the bond between people and dogs. Grenier shuttles between charming recollections of his late dog Ulysses and tales of dogs who preoccupied great figures in Western culture. Among the masterpieces of canine celebration."

"The Difficulty of Being a Dog" by Roger Grenier
