yes dogs can definitely get addicted. they had a piece on NPR about a dog who was addicted to frogs. she would catch poisonous frogs and suck on them until they had no poison left in them. i guess the frogs had hallucinogenic/euphoric effects. it got so bad at one point that the only thing the dog ever wanted to do, from the time she woke up to the time she went to bed, was to suck frogs. she would run into the back yard any chance she got and if someone was not there to let her out, she would sit by the back door and cry. once she did get out, she would bonkers until she actually found a frog. since the frogs were only around in the summer, the dog went through withdrawal every winter, but started right back up when the weather got warm. they tried everything to get her to stop but she would just find a way to get into the backyard, regardless. eventually, after a few years, for whatever reason, the dog calmed down, and no longer went bonkers for the frogs. she settled down and only sucked a few frogs a season.
kind of what happens to us as we get older, huh? we can't go on sucking frogs forever.

my pet fungusthis is my little parasitic friend that has taken up residence on my torso for well over a year.
when I went for my yearly gyno visit, my gyn exclaimed ''oh, a fungus!'' and I said ''oh...that...yes, yes, I know. I forgot to tell you.''
so he gave me a cream to put on it which he said, would kill the fungus, but i'd have to make sure I put it on religiously for weeks because, he said, it's been growing for so long, it might be tough to get rid of.
I haven't even gotten the persciption filled yet, and it's been months.
I don't want to kill it. it's become my little experiment. my personal pet project of symbiotic existence.
so, as a warm tribute to my constant and loyal friend, i'd like to say...
my little ring worm..... we've been through a lot this past year. i'm so glad i've got you each and every single time I glance down my shirt. I could have made it without you. here's to another damp and humid year!

thats funny. I didn't see paul's post so i just checked it out. They have also had Atkins for dogs and cats for a while now. That makes more sense than pills. Many cheap dog foods are filled with corn as a filler. Why would dogs eat corn? I would assume that if you were to give your dog a weight loss pill you would be rather lazy and are probably obese yourself. One pill for fido two for me.
