You have to know me for about five minutes to figure out that I love my wife. I absolutely adore her, but. . .
She comes from a family that does not believe in doing things the easy way. Take this evening, for example.
Until recently, we fed the dogs Natural Balance Venison and Brown Rice, which was recalled about two weeks ago. This resulted in a very abrupt series of kibble changes, with more or less success in terms of anti-allergenic characteristics and epicurean appeal.
The one for sure negative consequence associated with rapid kibble changes is the very distinct and highly likely possibility that one or more of the dogs will experience diarrhea. In our case, three. Big. Dogs. With. Diarrhea.
So K. called her brother, who is a Vet, today, to ask for some friendly advice. Here is where the family not believing in doing things the easy way comes in. He told her without equivocation that Pepto-Bismol is bar none the BEST way to address such issues. Further complicating issues, although you can use the pill form, the liquid really is the only way to go for quick, decisive results.
Here is where pictures speak for a thousand words:
This is an upper cabinet in the kitchen, with a corner of the stove hood.

K’s most precious responses from this evening’s mis-adventures:
“I don’t understand. They eat poop, for goodness sakes. It’s not like they have discerning tastes.”
“Wow. We will be wiping up Pepto-Bismol from random locations for the next 20 years.”
“Geez, no wonder this stuff works to coat your stomach. It becomes concrete when left standing. Can you hand me a chisel?”

"I see now why you would think you have a future in professional football."
"You sure rise to meet a challenge."
