Dogs have anal sacs just inside the opening of their rectum. When the dog defecates, the stool is supposed to express a little bit of the anal sac contents onto the stool itself. (The contents of the anal sacs is actually what dogs are sniffing when they sniff butts or dog poop.)
In some dogs, this anal sac expression doesn't happen normally, either because of an anatomic defect or abnormal consistency of the contents of their anal sacs. So those dogs must have their anal sacs expressed manually every few weeks, or they become uncomfortable and try to express their own anal sacs by scooting their butt on the ground. No big deal if they do this on the grass out in the yard. More of a problem if they do this on your living room carpet.
Now you've learned more than you've ever wanted to know about the anal sacs of dogs.
PS Anal sacs are a great reason to become a veterinary neurologist. You don't have to deal with anal sacs at all. "Not my department."

Casually Deliberate
I took leftover jerk chicken and put it on leftover salad from Papa Murhphy's in a poor imitation of a Thai beef salad. I think it's pretty darned good but LoP won't even try it.

I would advise a low sodium diet.

My wife and I are riding with a group of beginners today on a 40 mile ride. Its the culmination of a program called "I decided" where these beginning cyclists have been working up to this finale since last April.
Great, right? Yeah, until we are headed for the 90s and high humidity on low end bikes and I worry that they haven't been doing their homework.
All we need is a thunderstorm and high winds to make it a perfect morning.

Our planned route is no good so we're riding on the other side of town, our plan B ride.

Last ride was at the onset of the heat wave for us, today's ride will be in the tail end. Only about 80° right now, but it doesn't feel like the dew point is too far behind. There will be sweat. Oh, and I might just follow up with the same recovery drink as you.

Biscuits in the oven. High altitude, butter-olive oil blend for the shortening, old baking powder, salted shorteningr plus the salt included in the recipe. I guess we'll see how it comes out. Just working with what I had. Cooking in a vacation condo isn't always easy. Stay tuned.

We do seem to be amidst high achievers on this Addiction thread business. LAJ, Heath, Doug. Well done all of you. Nice people to boot.
Actually, what prompted that was a comment that LAJ made in another thread about one of his rivals calling by after a race and giving props. LAJ said it made him realise (even more) that he has been racing with some very special people.
It all comes back to that respect thing. Respect for the hard work to get among the elite. You don't podium in state events without it. And you don't get to officiate at big events (including Olympic trials) without it.

Watching the Tour and wondering, is the running of the spectators, yelling and gesticulating alonsid the racers appreciated by the racers?
I would think it would be supremely irritating.
