A Healthy Supplement

We're so proud of our Master Max these days....
This photo is of our Max with his best buddy, Milo, who lives next door. Every afternoon you can watch this scene between 4:00 and 4:30. That must be when Milo's family are home from their busy, busy worlds. Milo comes to our patio door as if to ask, "Can Max come out to play?" If we don't see or hear Milo ourselves, Master Max is quick to find us and start racing toward the door.
Then the fun begins.....they take turns visiting this lovely hedge and the lovely Eucalyptus tree behind them and so it goes until they're completely partied out! As this occurs in our yard every day (not in our neighbor's) we have seen a need to put Max on a healthy supplement. The advertisement on the front of the bottle, next to the picture of the beautiful Golden Retriever (probably named Buddy) has a large yellow circle stating, "STOPS YELLOWING."

Max has been a good trooper as he's started taking the pill, "To make Dad happy." So this morning, I was checking the dosage requirements as we're seeing great improvement with the disappearing dot-to-dots on our lawn. He's been taking about half of what they say a dog needs each day. There's a little chart with the caption: Give Daily To Dogs. One line down it reads, "Give at meal time (Do Not Use For Cats)." On the back of the bottle, right next to where it says your money is 100% guaranteed if it doesn't work.....in capital letters:

FOR ANIMAL USE ONLY

I honestly don't think I can make even a single comment to close this post. My sermonette about the dumbing down of society (the one that JJ can repeat to you on a moment's notice) is starting to rumble. Rumble, rumble, rumble...

You just never know...
Like when my brothers, sister, and I were little...we would make "special" recipes for each other which often consisted of things normal humans would never eat...
