        Hi Kristin - welcome to the list. What are the odds of having 4
collies and none of them regular Lassie colored dogs... I would love to see
pictures of your dogs. Are they on your web site? (I don't have web access
at home so I haven't been able to check it out yet.) I see you feed Flint
River Ranch. I just ordered some "Dry Water" to try when I travel. I really
like the food I feed my dogs but I've found that when I am traveling Quinn
(who usually travels with me) tends to eat a lot less and he's so naturally
thin to begin with that after two weeks he starts looking *really* thin.
I'm hoping the Dry Water will entice him to eat more when we're on the road.
        Does anyone else travel alot with their dog or dogs? Robb, my
previous main traveling companion, always ate a little less on the road but
not like Quinn. Quinn likes traveling and he doesn't have a nervous
temperment but boy does he stop eating. Neither Robb nor Quinn are chow
hounds at home either and it seems like when they travel there are just too
many more interesting things to contemplate. But I'd like to see them
contemplate dinner too.
