She may be blind in one eye now, and she may have had surgery on a knee to remove a tumor just two weeks ago, but Miss Darla is determined to show those two whippersnappers — Travis and Tanner — that she is still the Queen and this is her Palace. Entrance by invitation only.…

The photographer Melissa McDaniel emailed me this week to say she only has a couple hundred copies of her Puppy Mill Survivors book left, and she wanted to do another special discount sale for Rolling Dog Farm supporters. You may remember when I first posted this back in December that this stunning photo book includes…

I took Aurora, Darla and Widget back to Peak in Burlington last week. Our internist, Dr. Marielle Goossens, wanted the radiologist, Dr. Lynn Walker, to ultrasound Aurora's leg again to see what that clot in her artery was doing. That's Dr. Walker doing the imaging in the photo while vet tech Melissa holds Aurora. Dr.…

Yes, that's little one-eyed Aurora undergoing a CT scan on her neck last week at Peak in Burlington. We have a mystery here. As a result, this post might end up being the length of a mystery novel. Sorry! Several weeks ago Aurora developed some neck pain, and responded quickly to prednisone. Once we tapered…

Darla's left eye going blind wasn't the only bad news last week. There was plenty. On Tuesday, I had taken Widget in for her post-chemo "re-staging" to see what the status of her lymphoma was. Since our oncologist, Dr. Kendra Knapik, had already determined Widget was in remission just a month ago, and since Widget…

I was in Burlington yesterday with three special girls — Darla, Widget and Aurora — for a full day of veterinary medicine. Darla was scheduled for her double surgery … our ophthalmologist would be doing a laser procedure on her left eye, which had developed glaucoma, and our surgeon would be removing a small mast…

Well, exactly one week after he arrived, on Friday afternoon, Sunny came out of hiding. Alayne walked into the dog room and found him lying on a bed in the sun. He looked at her, got a worried look on his face, glanced nervously over at his crate as if he was going to make…

This is the little guy who arrived with Cap. The Arkansas shelter had heard about him at a rescue group in Shreveport and asked if we could take him. You can't tell from the photo, but he was born with a deformed right front leg. We will need to get it evaluated by our veterinarians.…

What weighs 5 pounds and cruises at 500 mph? If you guessed a new, super-secret drone of some sort, you'd be mistaken. If you guessed a tiny, wire-haired Dachshund mix puppy of some sort, you'd be correct. His name is Cap, and he arrived on Friday from the same Arkansas shelter where Tanner came…
