Karenin is going to be fine. The vet knew what was wrong with her right away... she has something called Gastro-"something"-itis. He said the trick is this medicine he gave her and a strict, bland diet. For now we're going to switch from Pedigree to Purina at the vet's suggestion and probably whenever we get some freezer space, we'll start the raw diet. The raw diet is a little bit like doing cloth diapers--it's a big heap of expense that you don't have to pay again for a long time. It might be well worth it, but it's hard to want to put down all that money at once.

So our plan for the dog now is to finish fencing in the yard so that I don't have to take her out on the leash through the winter, and hope for the best!

I thought you'd all enjoy some peek-churs of my Anja Pie. It's been awhile since I've posted any.

This is Anja enjoying some rice cereal. Yum!

This turned up one morning in our flower bed. I kept it so Martin will have someplace to go next time he's in the doghouse!

A very special trick
