Meanwhile, I have two big bags of very ripe pears sitting on my kitchen counter, courtesy of one of Rick's clients, and a bag of apples from one of our own trees (with more to pick). Brian is in the garden picking green beans and tomatoes as I type (he's avoiding violin practice), so I'll need to deal with those as well. I think I'll freeze the tomatoes until I get enough to fill a canner with tomatoes or condensed tomato soup, roast the green beans along with some beets from our garden, and can some apple+pear sauce. By the end of the day I'll have some happy chickens, a tasty homegrown supper, and more food in the pantry - if I get to work!
Happy last day of summer, from . . .

What is it that they have? Celeste pukes in the morning when she is either stressed or hasn't eaten. Then she goes out and eats grass like a cow and pukes some more.
They act like they have pancreatitis (with Jackson's progressing to enteritis), but we can't find anything they've gotten into to cause it. We're treating symptomatically.
Hope the dogs get to feeling better soon! I remember when I first got the kittens in the house, they were passing around some sort of viral stomach bug. One would get well, then another would get it, then the first one would get it again..etc etc. Several trips to the vet and time took care of it eventually. Sorry to hear about Rosie's brother passing away. Always hard.

It's always something, right? I hope Dozer feels better soon and Jackson stays well! Sounds like you will be pretty busy.
Both dogs ate breakfast this morning and are acting like they feel fine - YAY!
When our dogs get sick like that it's because they've been eating rabbits or ground squirrels. Pretty soon the worms show up - ugh.
