The pound is going to keep the dog awhile and then they said they would have no problems adopting him out.
FWIW -
Got a recipe for prevention of sand colic (for those of you in sandy areas.)
4 Cups Flax Seed
1 Gallon Water
1 Cup Bran
Bring water to a boil, add flax seed. Cook until the consistancy of oatmeal. Let stand overnight. Mix 1 Cup of bran with 1/4 of mix from pan. Feed until gone, morning and night. Repeat in 60 to 90 days.
I haven't tried this yet, plan on cooking it up this weekend. I'll have to make one batch to figure out how much I need to make for 13 horses. The person who gave me the recipe swears you can see the sand in the manure.
