Which also is against the rules, btw. 
 
Good reminder about ID too.  We now have only our cell #s on our dog's tags, since we always have that phone on us, but we also had a set made up that says "I'm on vacation at Disney's Fort Wilderness" so that if they're found wandering, people won't think they trekked there from NH.

Charity is he on a grain free diet? We've had quite a few dogs in rescue with skin issues and a lot of them have grain allergies. My in-laws BC came into rescue with scabby, oily skin an super sparse hair, and was getting periodic shots from the vet when it got really bad. His old owner was feeding him Pedigree. We fostered him and switched him to grain free kibble and within a couple of weeks you could see the difference. These days his coat is thick and shiny and beautiful.
There are lots of good grain free kibbles out there that run the gamut for cost, but not all are outrageously expensive. They're also becoming easier to find at places like Petco/Petsmart. Adding fish oil caps can help a lot with skin/coat issues too.
If you decide to take the leap to raw...
We feed 3 dogs raw. I spend about $300-$400 every 3-4 months - so roughly $100 a month for *3* dogs. They get a variety of proteins - chicken, turkey, lamb, beef, duck, rabbit, fish, eggs... (variety is key to a raw diet) plus a small amount of organs. I generally buy bulk or wholesale and pay on the low end from about $0.45/lb for chicken up to about $1.50 for beef. Rabbit is more, but I don't buy it often.
Not sure what George weighs. Mine are 35/40/45 lbs, although they all eat roughly a pound of food a day (different activity levels/metabolism)
Prior to switching to raw we feed good kibble (Timberwolf, Taste of the Wild). We had only 2 dogs then and switched right about the time we added the third. We're spending less now feeding 3 dogs raw than we were feeding 2 dogs quality kibble.

This is a picture of Cheyenne (black) who passed in February at almost 15 years old. She was a frequent FW guest. The Golden in the picture is her "sister" Jesse, who at 14.5 is still with us and going strong.

This is a picture of our newest, Tayla, during a dock diving class. She just turned 8 months and LOVES the pine cones at FW, but traveling is not her favorite thing. She is very routine driven.

From the walkway by the pool Rick got this shot.

As some may know my husband is a photography nut. He shoots pictures at dog events for profit and shoots Disney pictures for fun. Here is a picture he took during our last weekend trip. We ate lunch at the Polynesian.

What do you think? I'm having it enlarged and was going to mat and frame for home.
