I received this message from a reader and I’m putting it up here for the benefit of all dog-owners and their dogs. It is definitely sound advice for all dog owners to tag their dogs.

Sunshine Courage’s 4th Acupuncture
7th Dec 2011, by AnimalCare
By the time I was done over at Casa, I arrived too late to witness Sunshine’s 4th acupuncture treatment.
But Sunshine was happy to receive visitors, nonetheless!
This is Sunshine’s new bed. The “roof” is necessary to prevent her from sitting up as my friend doesn’t want any further damage to Sunshine’s broken spinal column. Sunshine has been sitting up a lot and this puts pressure on the broken vertebrae.
Hi Sunshine!!
She is such a happy little dog.
