Hello to all you animal lovers ! My name is Teal and I am a 13 yr old Shetland Sheepdog. I've had a very good life,some would say spoiled. I've been losing quite a bit of weight in the last 6 mos. and even though it doesn't show because of all my fur, my bones are pretty easy to feel. I went to the Vet 2 weeks ago because my owner thought I was laboring to breath something wasn't right. They took an x-ray and found a lot of fluid in my lungs and put me on Laysiks (sp) to get rid of it. Seems to have done the trick but now there just doesn't seem to be anything I want to eat. They have tried everything from raw and cooked burger to ensure to ham and you name it. I seem to like it one time but after that I have no appetite for it. I've heard my owner say ,about other dogs in the family, that when they stop wagging their tails it ain't good. I still do just a little when they come home from being away for a while but that's about it. My owner and I have had some talks lately about what to do but we're out of ideas. Niether of us is too happy about the direction my health is going rght now. We realize I'm in my 90,s in human years and we are ready to accept what that brings but we just thought maybe there was something we may be missing that we should be doing and thought about this site and all the years of experience with animals there must be accumulated with all the people on here. We are open to any and all ideas and if you think that it is just "that time" would welcome that opinion also. My owner has been through this all before quite a few times judging by all the grave markers out back. I've lost two of my buddies just in the last year. We've been spending quite a bit of time lately sitting together and talking and we are both comming to grips but just wanted to make sure we weren't missing something. Thanks to all for listening and for your input. We will take it a day at a time and enjoy what we're given. Teal & Randy.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
