Milos heading down the berry path. |
From early spring until they are in full bloom and dry, Milos devours goldenrod leaves. He can smell them from a distance and zone in on the first green sprouts as the snow melts. I used to worry that he ate so much, but it never seems to harm him. He also like to leave a steady trail of markings all along our paths - and we have quite a few in our 140 acres.

GoldenRod |
Today, I discovered that he is a genius - goldenrod leaves increase urine flow! The tasty solution to running out before reaching the end of each walk :) While not yet popular in the United States or approved for use by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), goldenrod is used widely in Europe to treat urinary tract infections and help eliminate kidney or bladder stones. It is used to flush the bladder and prevent infection.
That's my boy!
