They will have to take Roxy from my cold dead hands.

She and Pippin get toast and cheezy eggs every morning.

I cooked up some steak & potatoes for dinner last night, and gave a little bit to the puppers. My GSD isn't a fan of potatoes, but will do carrots and zucchini. I dare, I double dog dare anybody from cnn to come over and tell by GSD that she shouldn't eat that steak!

My German shepherd Hannibal does like to eat bees. He also enjoys the steak I make him whenever I make one for me.

First thing I thought of was this “gem” published in 2019 that was from the President of Brazil:
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has suggested people should "poop every other day" as a way to save the planet.
His comment came in answer to a journalist who asked him how to combine agricultural development and protecting the environment.
Mr Bolsonaro recently came under fire after official data showed an increase in deforestation in the Amazon.
He then sacked the head of the agency that reported the increase, accusing it of lying about the problem's scale.
Mr Bolsonaro's comment came after the journalist quoted reports saying deforestation and agriculture were responsible for a quarter of the planet's greenhouse effect.
"It's enough to eat a little less. You talk about environmental pollution. It's enough to poop every other day. That will be better for the whole world," he said.

Why not just get an electric dog? Don’t want those little dog farts destroying the precious ozone layer.

Its was horrific.


Lol awesome.

They are terrifying little monsters. We all know that there’s bugs everywhere that eat other bugs. Heck, spiders liquify the insides of their victims and suck it out.

But for some reason, that doesn’t seem as awful as seeing a mantis munching down on another bug.

I don't know how healthy bees are for Dogs, especially that little pointy part at the end. Hell, I'd toss wasps and hornets in that mix too.

Hannah will chase spiders and other bugs, she usually spits them out after.
BIG FAN of ice cubes!

Nothing pollutes like the cost of supporting the Internet “cloud”. For reelz…

My cat is already environmentally friendly. He eats any bug he encounters, live on the hoof. Or wing. He also enjoys sharing a fried chicken breast with me. I get him one weekly. I hope that does not negate his planet saving efforts.

I watched 3 of my cats playing with a live mouse the other night. Eventually found the mouse dead on my den floor, and disposed of. My cats are very well fed and wouldn't even consider eating the mouse.
