Important : No, this dog is not being punished!
If you see your dog or cat doing this at home, you should take it to the vet as a matter of urgency. Some owners don't worry, but there is a medical reason for this behavior.
Dogs or cats who act like this do so because they have so much pain in their head that they press it against the wall.
Due to damage to the nervous system, animals act this way. Causes can range from toxic poisoning to prosoncéfalo disease, a head tumor, an injury after an accident, etc.

CHEESY BROCCOLI BOMBS

1 bunch of broccoli, cut into equal sized florets
1 cup Mild Cheddar Cheese (you can use any kind you prefer)
1/2 of an onion, finely chopped (more if you like onions)
3/4 cup breadcrumbs (I used Italian)
3 eggs
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 400. Pour water into saucepan and bring to a boil. Place the broccoli into the boiling water, cover, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook the broccoli for 5-6 minutes. Drain the broccoli and set aside to cool slightly. IMPORTANT: Lay the broccoli between paper towels, pressing down firmly on the broccoli to absorb as much moisture as you can.
Chop the broccoli finely. Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, stirring everything together until well mixed. Spray mini muffin tins with non-stick spray and fill to the top, pressing down with a spoon until compacted. Bake for 18-20 minutes.

Chickens are far more extraordinary than they seem — intelligent, emotional, and deeply connected to nature:
• They can recognize up to 100 human faces
• Their color vision is more advanced than ours
• They form close social bonds and grieve when companions are lost
• They experience dreams during sleep
• They navigate using the position of the sun
• They’re direct descendants of the mighty T-Rex
• They can run at speeds of 9 mph and live up to 16 years
A remarkable blend of instinct, emotion, and evolutionary brilliance.

Easy White Chicken Chili

2 tbsp olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp cayenne
2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
1.5 lb chicken breasts, raw (2 large breasts)
4 cups chicken broth
2 4oz cans green chiles
1 can fire roasted tomatoes
1 can corn, drained and rinsed.
1 lime, juiced
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (I used 2%)

Saute onions in olive oil until soft. Add in garlic for one minute and then add in all spices.
In a separate bowl, mash 1 cup of beans with a potato masher until soft, we will use this to thicken the soup.
Add broth, mashed and regular beans, green chiles, fire roasted tomatoes, and corn into pot. Then add in the chicken breasts and cook at medium-high heat.
Once it comes to a boil, reduce heat to simmer and cook 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked through, this will vary depending on the size of the chicken breasts.
Once chicken is cooked, turn off heat and take out the breasts. When chicken is cool enough to handle, shred with two forks.
Add the chicken back in, along with the juice of one lime and the Greek yogurt.
Stir all together and serve with extra toppings such as cilantro, Greek yogurt, cheese, tortilla strips, and jalapenos.

For crockpot: Place all ingredients in crockpot and cook on low for 5-6 hours. Shred chicken with fork and place back into crockpot for serving.

How cute is this???
Not sure what to do with your pumpkin after Halloween? Turn it into a bird feeder! Cut out the carved part and fill your pumpkin with birdseed. You can set it on the ground or hang it from a tree with several lengths of thick twine or rope wrapped under the base! You can also feed it to your chickens.
