Beautiful profile shot of Yara's head

Yesterday, I picked up the prints from the photos we had taken a few weeks back and they are quite stunning. I’m sorry to say that my scanner seems to have some serious issues and there is an extremely huge amount of grit that showed up on these images that is most definitely not present on the prints themselves. [EDIT: The scanned images have been replaced by the much higher quality — and grit-free — digital images.] Anyway, below are a few of my other favorite pictures:

Thank You! :)

A very big “thanks” to the wonderfully thoughtful person who sent me the Gargoyles: Clan Building TPB for my birthday! However, I’m left wondering if this gift was meant to be an anonymous one . . . because there is a profound lack of evidence as to whom said generous soul might be.

Successful Upgrade

Yes, I know I’m very late with this, but I have finally upgraded WordPress to version 2.5.1 and it is very strange. Everything in the admin panel is very different. Anyway, everything appears to be functioning properly, but if you run into any issues or errors let me know.

The Continuing Food Saga

Last week at the vet’s and this past weekend at Fidelco, I was told to increase Yara’s food. At this point I’m supposed to be feeding her about six cups a day, which is a lot of food especially given she’s on EVO. Of course, no one seems to believe me when I say the dog just refuses to eat that much food and it doesn’t matter how enticing I try to make it.1

Over the weekend, she was eating all of her food, but now that we’re home and there isn’t a feeling of competition with five other dogs she has gone back to just picking at her meals and eating maybe 2/3 of what I’m being told she should eat. I think part of this might have been because I’d added the Provi-Tabs vitamin to her food and she isn’t very fond of them. Either way, it’s frustrating and I am truly at a loss other than to think that she is just meant to be a very lean dog.


1. Right now I’m feeding her five cups of dry mixed with a can of wet food . . . and there have been several people who’ve commented how good her food smells so I’m taking that to mean it must taste pretty good, too!

Yara and I had so much fun this past weekend! [Note: Very lengthy and image-intensive post to follow. Big thanks to Patty, Tom, Raechel, and James for sharing all their photos!]
