Bruiser was adopted in August 2011 from Kentucky Lab Rescue. His front left leg was broken and healed with the bones separated. The break had occurred some time previously as the tissue was healed. When he walked or ran he was three legged with a leg that flopped up and down and essentially useless. We attempted to save his leg by having it surgically repaired with a titanium plate and resetting the bones. Rehab was conducted at The Veterinary Wellness Center, a state of the art veterinary clinic in Lexington, Ky. where you see Bruiser in the Hyperbaric chamber. This was used to try and facilitate bone growth and calcification. Unfortunately that did not occur and we had to amputate his leg. To day he is happy and his 3 legs do not slow him down. He is 9 pounds of pleasure and no one pushes him around. He is a real joy and repays me daily with his zest for life.

Pesicides Linked to Thyroid Deficiency in Pregnant women


An article in the Lexington Herald Leader today reported a study presented Sunday at the annual meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies in Toronto.

Children conceived in June, July and August when pesticide spraying is at its peak scored lower on achievement tests than other kids. Dr. Paul Winchester based his findings on nearly 1.7 million students in grades 3-10 who took a standardized test in Indiana. Spraying patterns are also associated with premature birth.

Does anyone care, it seems not as the EPA, FDA, USDA just ignore this constant source of carcinogenic poisons sprayed into the air, water and food sources for humans and pets alike.Until such time as the Public wakes up, nothing will change. It appears the mindset is that we will all get cancer or some disease; it’s just the way things are.

Prevention seems a foreign word in today's society
