Intermission: Of Doggie Seizures and Sneak Peeks
My furry companion is at it again. =S
Canine seizures, the vet told me, don’t really have a cure (Major BUMMER!) but they can be managed by a variety of treatments. Since overheating is the most common probable cause, I give my doge a dip in the tub (the biggest palanggana we could easily carry home *hihi) … followed by a real bath (we’re there anyway =b) at least once a week.
My poor seizure boy. =( (He’s happy in this photo, of course; rolling out his pink carpet of a tongue. All dogs are in a walk. *hihi)
With my little (nonscientific) notations on when he has bouts of the shakes, I began to notice some patterns. What we managed to keep to two seizures in two weeks, is now becoming four seizures in two weeks and the fourth one he had early this morning was pretty bad. The stuff that I think gives us the longest duration in between the attacks – bangus as well as whole grain bread, doesn’t seem to be working its magic today. [I try to avoid the anti-seizure medications when I can; the last thing we want is medication tolerance/resistance. (Those pills don’t come cheap, either.)]
I’m going to put off the feature post for today to watch my salt and pepper lovie like a hawk but so we won’t waste any time, I’ve still got some Baguio food/restaurant details to serve to you.
Sneak Peek (“,):
Notable Edibles #4 – Tuvera’s Longganisa
Seeing that I started July with a blog about a notable edible in Baguio, I’m going to follow through and make the last post of the month about another noteworthy viand.
(It would also be good to have a short-ish post today because my internet connection has been moving at snail’s pace ever since that lightning crashes and torrential rain last Friday … It will stop me from picking my monitor up and smashing it on the ground in annoyance. *hee
As for the benefit to you, my fellow Baguio eatsplorer, you’ll still get some info about what to eat in the City of Pines. Win-win. \m/)
Please direct your attention to:
Longganisa from Tuvera’s Meat Store
Y-U-M! (“,)
Talking about longganisa from Baguio City, the first thing that comes to many people’s minds is Alabanza’s version. That never really registered for me (and my family, I’ll explain about that in a little while) until they started setting their booth up at the Panagbenga Festival. (Going on early morning Session Road in Bloom walks, my furry friends never fail to stop and fill their nostrils with the scent of these regular and garlic flavored sausages cooking over portable cooktops. =b)
