by Daisy42 6th October 2012 Would love to make my darling lab x dog some home made cookies but unable to find a suitable recipe,containing liver would be fine. Can you pleaes help
by Noradrenergic 22nd August 2012 Please consider giving up the meat. It is not only unhealthy, but entirely unnecessary in order to be healthy and thus any suffering caused to the animals quite unjustifiable. If we can do one thing in our lives, it should be doing right by others - the animals included. All the best wishes for the future, Regards
