The Mia Foundation

The Mia Foundation takes in dozens of animals born with deformities with the goal of giving them a chance at a life. 

(Let's not tell him it's spelled latte).  Wishbone is bound and determined to talk about beverages this month.  Doggie beverages.  I know!  We told him that would be water but he insists dogs can drink many things besides water.  So of course we began searching to prove him wrong.  And, you guessed it, we proved him right.  Did you know there is a company in Colorado that sells dog wine and dog beer???  We searched the dog beer and although it does come bottled like a beer the ingredients include: Filtered Water, Chicken Broth, Anise Seed Extract, Glucosamine HCL, Hemp Seed Oil, Sea Salt, Rosemary Extract, Sodium Metabisulfite (preservative).  And it does look like chicken broth.  We don't understand AT ALL but Wishbone apparently can relate to the need for Chicken Broth Dog Beer in an actual Beer Bottle.  

We've begged Wishbone to do his article on what dogs shouldn't drink.  He likes his job.  He agreed.

1.  Milk - Many dogs lack the proper enzymes to break down lactose, the sugar in milk.

2.  Sports Drinks -  Dogs can tolerate only specific amounts of certain vitamins and minerals that already naturally occur in dog food and water.

3.  Toilet Water - Toilet bowls can contain many harmful types of organisms, bacteria and possible cleaning chemicals.

Not sure about you, but we think Wishbone is going to sabotage this article out of revenge for not receiving any Dog Beer. So we'll cut him off here before it gets any worse!

We wanted a really good dip for this month's recipe and so we went to the Food Network and found Trisha Yearwood's Charleston Cheese Dip.
 

Ingredients
1/2 cup mayonnaise
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
2 green onions, finely chopped
1 dash cayenne pepper
8 butter crackers, crushed, such as Ritz
Corn chips, crackers or bagel chips, for serving
8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled


Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, mix the mayonnaise, cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, green onions and cayenne pepper. Transfer the mixture to a shallow baking dish, such as a 9-inch pie pan. Top the mixture with the cracker crumbs and bake until heated through, about 15 minutes.

Remove the pan from the oven and top with the bacon. Serve immediately with corn chips, crackers or bagel chips.
