WINNIPEG, Manitoba (Reuters) - Hurt by export bans after the discovery of brain-wasting diseases in elk and more recently in cattle, Canadian elk farmers have found a new market: they're going to the dogs.

They're touting a University of Montreal study that found arthritic dogs could run and play with more ease after two months of taking four to eight capsules a day of elk velvet antler, a traditional Asian medicine.

Hey, if grandma can take pills to put a spring back in her step, why not Rover?

Walter--

The second sort is correct. Smoked and dried and given to a G-O-O-D Dog they make a wonderful crunch.

Iffy knows that pig ears are kept on the top shelf in the cabinet above the freezer and is quite hopeful when that cabinet is opened and I drag the kitchen stool over.

Iffy is quite selective in what she learns. She has troubles with "come" and "sit" and "stay", but she's mastered the non-verbal cues of pig ears with effortless enthusiasm.

"You've been with this dog maybe through a couple of divorces, or all of life's miseries, and they're still there for you," he said.

This is a wonderful thing for arthritic dogs. We should do anything we can to make their lives better. Dogs really are man's best friend.
