Here we go

[Tink's Mom]

Teri, Stuart and Tink are both on Fromms Senior. I talked to the vet on Monday and she is fine with my trying the oil. She doesn't think there is much more I can do for him at his age. He'll be 15 next month and most of that time he was not well taken care of. I just want him to be as comfortable as possible. Today he is much more frisky - literally, he was trying to hump Tinkerbelle a while ago, much to her dismay!

Is one brand of the oil better than another? What's your experience with it?

I've been in your shoes...with Boog...so I know exactly how you feel.

I just bought a jar at our health food store here, it's the Nutiva brand. Just make sure you buy the cold pressed oil that has no other ingredients than coconut.

We just started using it and so far they love it. I'm hoping it will help Moo with her yeast/allergy issues and rebuild her immune system along the way.

There are several threads on YT about the coconut oil along with some links I'll post one here for you: Coconutoil.com - Research on Coconut Oil's Health Benefits

Here's one thread where they're talking about it but there are others too: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...conut-oil.html

Several members feed it daily to their dogs and one mentioned that she even brushes her dog's teeth with it. Coconut oil has so many health benefits to humans and it's even great for cooking or putting on toast...I had some in my oatmeal yesterday morning and it was pretty good. I plan to start using it myself and I wish I had known about it a long time ago!

Tell Tink to keep her eyes open and her guard up!

You go Stuart! You dirty little old man you. Hey I am glad he has a little ump still. I could just imagine Tink wtf

[Tink's Mom]

Teri thanks for the info. I'll check out the links and go get something today. Good to know your fluffs are happy on it.

Verbena (are you a Teri too?), thanks for the laugh! Stuart was an intact male when I rescued him last March. They neutered him before they would let me take him and he doesn't understand! Hilarious to watch him. Tink is just so confused!!

Hey, another topic - I've been grooming Tink like a poodle the last couple of years. We did Yorkie cute the first three years and then poodle the last two. I think she looks better in the poodle cut because her hair is sooooo thin. BUT, her ear hair just doesn't look right in a poodle cut, being so thin. So last night I got the scissors out and chopped off the length of her ears. Now she looks like a terrier. They need to be trimmed up some but I think I like it. Now they won't hang in the water dish all the time or get all matted. I'll try to get a pic today.

[Micah my love]

All is well

[Tink's Mom]

Hi little big thread. It's Wednesday and I have a horrible cough. Poor me!

Yes believe it or not and we spell it the same way Teri. . . I have met very few spelled that way. Look at those little 85 year old men chasing girls that can be their great grand daughters. lol

I can not wait to see the pics

I hope you feel better. Have some tea with honey and lemon. It is very soothing and good for your throat

Yes, it's soothing - I've been sucking on it all day. I went to the doctor this afternoon and she gave me a Z-Pac and told me to rest for the next couple of days - no working. The office won't like that but I know I'll get better sooner if I pamper myself. Lots of sleep this afternoon and lovely tea. I am a tea and coffee freak!
