Dancer & Mmax – soulmates

~

I’m putting a good word in with this post for two dogs at the League for Animal Welfare in Batavia, OH. Eric and I are in love with Mmax. He is a Great Dane mix and a sweet, sweet soul. We’ve not interacted with Dancer much yet, but she seems very sweet as well. If you are in the area and have a place in your home and heart for two dogs that belong together, please take a look at this video:

The first time we walked Mmax, he took my heart and Eric firmly reminded me that we already have 4 furry four-leggers at home. In reality, Eric was being overly stern because he was trying to keep himself from falling for Mmax too :)

Thank you for giving them a look!

Volunteering – League for Animal Welfare

~

Eric and I recently started volunteering at the League for Animal Welfare in Batavia, OH. We get to do all the fun things like walk the dogs and play with them, give them treats. We are impressed with how nice the place is…so clean and thoughtfully designed. LFAW is a no-kill facility to boot. Eric fell in love with one of the dogs, Gideon. We were happy to learn during our most recent visit that Gideon is now with a foster family.

Going vegan – Trixie?!?

~

While (both cartoon and real-life) Trixie will continue to eat a diet of chicken and rice and assorted vegetables, I have finally made the long-coming transition to a fully plant-based diet. My consumption of meat had been dwindling over the years via conscious effort and I got to the point where I knew I could eliminate the remaining pieces, including dairy and eggs. It feels good and very freeing.

If any of you are strictly plant-based, I would love to hear from you! Also, although I have no plans to switch either of my dogs to plant-based, I know that there are people who have done this. Penny for your thoughts (pros and cons) on this type of diet for canines.

Happy Pi Day to everyone!
