It looks like all three dogs will survive eating the latest recalled pet food – Natural Balance Venison & Brown Rice dry dog food (their Venison & Green Pea dry cat food was also recalled, but Simon wasn’t eating that).
The pups all seem to have recovered from kidney failure thanks to the efforts of the excellent doctors at the regular vet, emergency vet, and specialty vet hospital. Phoebe and Daphne are home with a clean bill of health, and Joey will come home tomorrow. His doctor says he is being a pest and that that is a very good sign.
Hopefully, they’ll feel up to some weekend – or should I say weakened? – hound blogging.
My wife has more on her site.
The details of this little adventure be found here, here, and here.

Thanks again to all of you who have expressed concern and best wishes for the dogs.

Hey Joey! How ’bout giving a lady a seat huh?
What a dreadful story! I’m so glad the hounds are all well. Tara sends them tail wags!
I’m glad to hear that all is well. What a horrible, horrible snafu.
Fred, I think the law of the big dog trumps chivalry. Of course, Daphne has learned that the law of the sneaky hound trumps all.
paola and Jessica, Thanks. They’re all doing much better.
