Quote: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?
Best new product on the market since pig ears.
Pig ears are really that good, huh?
The pigs seem to like them!
Delicious, roger
Or do you ask about these? :wink:
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.

I know, but nevertheless: I like the first better
Walter, have you been a B-A-D Dog?
"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.
