I have a 8yr. old lab that is healthy and not overweight.After a full day of hunting last year he was a little stiff the next morning.I gave him a baby aspirn and that seemed to help. Anyone know which medication would work best.He weighs 68lbs.Thanks for any info. DrJ( I'm not a vet.)

I was told my vet to use Ascripton, something like that. I leave a bottle up at the shack so I'm not 100% sure on the spelling.

Ascriptin is recommended for the buffer.

DO NOT FEED YOUR DOG IBUPROFEN!!!! It is poisonous to them. Aspirin will work as well as anything unless there is reall extended pain and then Rimadyl is used but not on younger dogs as there are some liver stresses involved.

      On the east side of St. Boni. It's not too far from me. A friend lives in St Boni and loves the place. I haven't tried it yet.

      First time ever going there with the wife. Little spendy but they make some darn good piles of meat! We had the brisket! 😋

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.
