That's a good idea...haven't thought of that, I'll have to go get some.

I have no idea?
Yet another reason us follicle challenged people have it rough! Like forgetting the hat when mowing the yard! Lol!

Be interesting to know if the pillow lickers have a common diet??? Like a certain brand of dog food, or home cooked meals, etc.

This would be interesting to know as well. Ours are all on Science Diet W/D (one has diabetes, one has pancreatitis bouts, one is hypoglycemic, one was just fat, and the other one just gets it because it easier). We do add chicken broth, rice, chicken breast, vegetable broth, pumpkin, and the like to their food a few times a week, so I don't know what they might be missing.
