Eight more wake-ups!
Lady is slowly recovering from whatever ails her. I thought she might be dying at one point after I removed the tick collar, but she is slowly regaining her strength and interest in what is going on around her. She is still an old dog and I'm going to have to watch her more closely as I think her eyesight, sense of smell, and hearing are all waning. She is eating well, although I'm feeding her lightly for the time being. What really surprises me is that the lady who so highly recommended the tick collar keeps one on her Yorkie year around. I guess she got used to it at a young age.
I would like to thank everyone who commented on this situation, plus the information you sent me. Now if someone could tell what was wrong with me to begin with to ever have put that collar on my dog when the treatment I've always given her works just fine. I forgot my first rule: IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT!"

Found 2 Out Of 3!
I guess that's not bad. I had bought Lady a huge Costco-size box of dog biscuits a couple of weeks ago at the same time I got the Frontline. I took out some of the biscuits for her treats jar and inserted the Frontline package into the box. I happened...

Wrinkle Free Packing
Dh and I held a "pack off" when he did not believe me that you could fit more rolled than he could folded. I won. I think it is pretty much a proven fact that not only does it save space, but also cuts down on wrinkles. 6 Tips for Wrinkle-Free Packing...
