Detox Dog...

Being that I just got adopted, my new mom says there's lots of things we need to change. Like my food and what supplements I'm taking, but first she says that I have to go through a 'detox program'. 

I tried to explain to her that I wasn't really toxic...despite what my butt might say. She says there's lots of reasons I need a detox like:

- I got lots of vaccines, and got them really close together before coming to her. She says that even though lots of dogs get vaccines like that, she doesn't agree with it.

- I haven't been on a fresh, whole food diet. The food I was eating at the vets office makes mom scrunch up her face all funny when someone mentions it. I like that face. And before that I was eating cheap grocery store food and scavenging when I was on the run!

- Mom also says that dogs come into contact with a lot more chemicals than humans do. We walk around unprotected on surfaces that have been cleaned with harsh chemicals or in the street with all sorts of nasty yuck. 

Those all seem like good reasons. But, I wasn't so sure about a detox. I mean, it sounded pretty intense. Mom let me smell it first though, and it wasn't that bad, it smelled kind of like dirt, and I LUVF dirt! She said those are herbs I'm smelling, like Milk Thistle, Dandelion & Licorice.

Then she told me that a detox will help rid my body of unwanted waste that's been building up in my organs, that it will help boost my immune system and will help me feel better. But you know what else she said, she said it will help my body function better. Help my body function better?! Like, maybe I'll have super senses?? She just puts a couple drops in my food everyday and what'dya know...I'm on my way to being BRISCOE THE DETOXED DOG!!! I like the ring that has to it! 


I'll be sure to let you know how this whole detox thing turns out! 

Woofs!
