    I'm more a cat person. But, I let them adopt me. Might work for a mutt.
    Go to your local APL or ASPCA adoption event and see which one chooses

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Politically Correct Puppy Chow
    Categories: Cereals, Chocolate, Nuts, Snacks
    Yield: 4 Pounds

    28 oz (2 boxes) Chex cereal
    11 1/2 oz Bag white chocolate chips
    11 1/2 oz Bag milk chocolate chips
    1/2 lb Butter
    18 oz Jar crunchy peanut butter
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    16 oz Box powdered (confectioners)
    - sugar
    8 oz Bag M&Ms or favourite candy;
    - chocolate, of course

    Let's Get Baked: Place half the jar of peanut butter,
    the white chocolate chips, one teaspoon of vanilla and
    one stick of butter in a large pot.

    Place the pot over the stove at medium heat until all
    ingredients are beautifully melted together.

    Take the pot off the stove and mix in one box of Chex.

    Place the white chocolate chow in a CLOSED zip lock bag,
    add in half the bag of powdered sugar and shake it up.

    Place the bag in your fridge and wash the pot.

    Do the same for the milk chocolate chips using the rest
    of the jar of peanut butter, the milk chocolate chips,
    one teaspoon of vanilla and the other stick of butter
    in the pot.

    Let the two puppy chow mixes cool in the fridge for
    about an hour.

    Once cooled mix them together and add your favorite
    candies in, like M&Ms or crushed Oreos.

    Always a great snack to bring to parties - or cuddle
    on the couch with while your roommate left you home
    alone all night for a hot date.

    Hi Dave,

    Talking about pups:

    I still have to come up with a name for the new girl.. I'm waiting to see >>> her personality before we do that :)

    So she's there now? I didn't hear more. New job and all the frantic
    hunting, had the BBS sidelined.

    That breeder did not work out at all for us, sad to say. I asked the
    breeder to hold the pup for an extra week for us because of Ron's back
    issues starting back up rather suddenly ... It would have been H___
    making that drive to Pennsylvania from Ithaca ... She said, "OK, but
    I'm going to have to charge you an addional 75 bucks a day for every

    That sucks rocks.

    Yeah... It really did... It killed me, really.. what a great human being... geez.

    Maybe we can hope the wheels of kharma run her over. Mercenary bee-yatch.

    That she was... then she tried to switch course and blame it on her husband.. sure...

    don't need the aggravation right now!" So, deposit of 200 bux down the
    tube so to speak, but I couldn't see Ron making that drive given the
    pain he was in... I'm looking at some local shepherds currently, we'll
    see how that goes. I'm in no rush...

    I'm more a cat person. But, I let them adopt me. Might work for a mutt.

    you as his/her buddy. And I'll bet one or more will.

    Yep, I'm watching there as well... I don't mind not getting a dog with papers (not a full breed in other words)... Indy and Sophie were rescue mutts we adopted from a rescue a little upstate from where we lived at the time..

    ===Date Bread===
    Long ago, Ron and I used to go to a restaurant in Sullivan County, NY, "Sullivan's", and order this desert toasted, with cream cheese on the side. It was scrumptious! This is my 're-creation' of that recipe.

    1 1/2 cups boiling, strong coffee
    1 1/2 cup chopped dates
    1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 cup brown sugar
    1 tablespoon butter, melted
    1 egg, beaten
    1 1/2 cups flour
    pinch of salt
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1 cup chopped walnuts

    Put the chopped dates in a small bowl. Add the hot, boiling coffee and stir in the cocoa powder and baking soda. Allow the date/coffee mixture to soak for about 10 minutes to soften the chopped dates.

    Combine flour, salt, sugar and butter. Stir in the egg and mix well. Add the chopped walnuts to the batter.

    Add date mixture to batter and mix well. Turn into a greased 4-1/2x8 inch loaf pan and bake at 300 degrees for an hour and 1/2, or until a toothpick comes out clean

    Cool, and remove from the pan. Serve thick slices toasted with about 1 Tablespoon of cream cheese for each slice.

    Take care,
    Janis
