Most dog food marketing lives on the front of the bag. Sundays For Dogs wants you to read the back.

Sundays was founded by Dr. Tory, a veterinarian who wanted something better for her own dog, Mabel. Every recipe is made with over 80% real meat and nutrient-rich extracts of fruits, vegetables, seeds, and grains — complete and balanced nutrition for every life stage. If an ingredient sounds like it came from a chemistry lab, it’s not in the bag.

I can't describe the feeling, but I was scared beyond belief. Bc I didn't want to die. I want to hold my grandchildren someday! So they rush…”

The Wrap

Norfolk just had a day for the record books. Friday's slow-moving cold front dumped 6.31 inches of rain at Norfolk International Airport, which broke the daily record for Nov. 6 and the record for the wettest November day, a mark that had stood since Nov. 8, 1893. WAVY says bright sunshine is returning as we head into the new week, and we're all for it.
