Enormous Bear

Granby, CT - On the way into work today I saw this enormous bear on the side of the road hugging a tree. Not wanting to cause an accident I drove down the road and turned around. By the time I got back the bear was on his way across the field and into someones back yard. I don't know how much this bear weighed but I would not be surprised is he was pushing 400 lbs. He was much larger than any other bear I had ever seen. He was so fat, to borrow a term from the movie "Some Like it Hot", when he walked he looked like "Jello on Springs".

Does this bear have a broad beam or what?

ACUPUNCTURE DOG

Granby, CT - I have been bringing my dog Thatcher to "Frontier Medicine for Animals" for acupuncture and chiropractic treatments to treat his Hydrocephalus (Water-on-the-brain). The Vets at Frontier Medicine for Animals treat with alternative therapies, acupuncture and chiropractic. I noticed Thatcher seems to be getting better even after one treatment last week; I just hope he can continue getting better to at least to the level he was a few months ago.



The Vets office.


Inside is a very comfortable waiting room with a soft couch, oriental rugs on the floor, and Buddhist prayer flags in the window.


Dr. Amy Matthews VMD Phd. is watching Thatcher after placing the acupuncture needles in specific locations to help him with his ailment. I am not sure how the "magic" works but hey, after thousand of years of treating over a billion patients, it must have something to it. So I hope these treatments get his "chi" in order so he can get on with his life.


I addition to the acupuncture he also gets some chiropractic treatments done. Here Dr. Matthews works on Thatcher's neck with the help of her assistant Wendi.

SNOW SCULPTURE DOG

Granby, CT - This snow sculpture is at the place where we take our dogs to Doggy Day Care once a week, they love it! When I dropped them off yesterday I saw this sculpture, but did I have my camera? Noooooooo. Unfortuately, it was still kind of dark when I took these photos. I must carry my camera at all times! The day before I saw a River Otter in Bloomfield on the skating pond, again no camera.
