@Karen – I’m not a “pet parent”, but I am an “aunt” to a beagle. He is a big sweetie, although not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He actually ate a cactus plant the day my sister gave birth to my nephew. My brother-in-law had to leave the hospital to authorize the vet to use anesthesia to remove all the needles!
