Breakfast Couscous ( serves 4)

4 cups water
1/4 tsp. salt
3 Tbs. brown sugar or honey
1/4 cup butter or oil

do you have an extra flexi lead from the days of abby? just looking on ebay and they are still expensive!

i have another dog question- did any of your puppies ever have worms? these books are telling me that lots of puppies have worms and you should pay a $55 fee to the vet to do a stool analysis checking for them. did you ever do that?

they should get a worming medicine as part of their deal before you get them. Abby had lice. yuck. we had to get a shampoo for that. the other pups didn't have worms, but I wormed them as part of the deal.
