PS Mum here to remind everyone:

1.  Too much turkey skin is bad for our pups.  The fat in it can cause pancreatitis.  And NEVER give your babies turkey bones!

2.  Onions, raisins, grapes, and other foods can cause intestinal upsets.  Check out this excellent article on the AKC website:

3.   Watch that your baby doesn't find an escape route!  And think about travel concerns.  Another excellent article about Holiday pet safety can be found at

Happy Thanksgiving all!

I’m sure Nick is thinking, “where are they going now, they just got home!”. I sat and thought about this and came to the conclusion that Nick was right, that I would limit the constraints that the holidays put upon me and spend more

Holiday Greetings and Warnings! What says Holiday more than a Scottie?  Certainly our diehard buddies are the epitome of the Holiday Season!  They look fabulous in red; most already come with beards; and who wouldn't want one in their stocking? However, due to their clever and mischievous minds, certain precautions are a must.  First of all, consider the holiday plants we all cherish.  Many of them can make our Scotties ill, ranging from mild discomfort or intestinal distress to even fatalities.  We also often forget that many of these plants have been treated with pesticides which can also cause health problems. Two of the most toxic plants are holly and mistletoe; especially the berries of each of these.  Even when these berries are dried, they contain toxic substances which are extremely harmful.  In large amounts, they can cause symptoms ranging from a sudden and severe drops in blood pressure, hallucinations, seizures and death. One plant which most of us worry over
