Can we get the research trial people (with their big research grants) to throw a real party?
Maybe Marvin will be written up in the literature and presented at conferences! Don't let fame get to him.

That would be too funny. I wonder maybe he will get an unofficial mention but since they didn't monitor him I don't think he can be included in the official results.

He deserves at least a footnote.

I am not too happy with the PM 126, Think it's just too hot here today, Marvin did not eat much today. He maybe took one or two bites of his +9, didn't eat all his AM and +4 meals. He is eating now, about half of his PM, have to keep presenting it to him. So hopefully he will finish that up, and I am sure that at +3, he will have a nice green or low blue....

It just occurred to me.... 
that I am still feeding my dog dry food. Anyone know if it is the same issue with dogs, should doggies be feed wet only? I wouldn't want to have the same issue, I have had dogs before, never known a dog with Diabetes, but just wondering if I should change his food, or not.

Plus 3, is much better @ 90, I tried to explain to Marvin that he needs to eat at +5, and especially at +9 to keep him in the greens. He just gave me this face
I have known/seen dogs with diabetes. The idea dog diet is slightly different, in that they are designed to be able to process a bit of carbs. They are omnivores, not strictly carnivores. But you won't get an answer from me about dry food, as I am a fan of the raw food diet. (which in dogs means veggies added).
Nice recovery Marvin.

Yes, he does recover well (if he eats). Thinking since I used to only give him 2 meals a day with occasional overnight meal lately, he is just not used to eating 6 times a day, plus it was extremely hot and humid today. So he probably was not hungry. I may move his +5 meal to +4 and see if that helps. Maybe I am giving him too much food per meal, half of a FF just seems so smallNice recovery Marvin.
