Spring Forward

Today Georgia standard time became Alabama Daylight savings time. I leave most of our clocks at this setting year round. Here on the Eastern/Central time cusp you just ask is that fast time or slow time. So we're back on slow time here at the house. Nature doesn't have to ask about time, blooms are coming on strong.

Initially appeared to be an easy diary to write. Provide the food recipes used to feed the dogs and cats. Well the recipes are now only used as guidelines. The actual food used for ingredients has changed over time due to availability, pet preferences and time necessary for preparation. Cost comparison to commercial, not sure. It has been over 10 years since I purchased commercial dog kibble and dry cat food 3 years.
My concern for quality has remained consistent over the past decades, the ability of commercial foods to provide quality food consistently has changed. My hobby was showing dogs for a number of years, quality nutrition kept them winning in the ring and healthy at home. Only had to changed dog food once when a national brand changed their formula without any notification. The company denied any change in the formulation or work with us to identify if it was a problem related to the distribution channel. Offered free product instead and the opportunity to be a kennel reference.
