INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A small dog only needs about 1 tbsp. per feeding. A large dog of 50 lbs. (22.67 kg) or more can use 1/4 cup (236.58 ml) per meal. Use discretion when purchasing since canned pumpkin pulp is not the same thing as pumpkin pie mix, which has additives and sugar that aren't healthy for dogs. Fresh green beans are an additional source of fiber for dogs. Prepare a handful by lightly steaming in a microwave, then completely cooling. Finely chop or blend them then incorporate them into your dog's meal. Raw green beans are less digestible, so your dog won't experience all of the possible nutritional benefits. However, they make a good snack during games and training. A single medium-sized sweet potato contains over 3 grams of fiber. To serve one to your dog, peel it first and chop it into small cubes. Put the cubes into a shallow bowl with a small amount of water, cover with plastic wrap, and steam in the microwave until you can easily pierced them with a fork. Mash with a fork, then incorporate 1-3 tbsp. into your dog's main meal. Be aware that these and other veggies may also increase other nutrients, including potassium. These may not be beneficial for your pet if they have other or concurrent health problems, such as kidney disease. Your vet can help determine the best vegetables based on any other conditions your pet may have. Whole grains are another ideal and inexpensive way to supplement dog meals with fiber. Some of these products may be fortified with vitamins or other supplements, so be sure to examine all nutrition information before using commercially available processed foods. You can use Metamucil or other OTC fiber additives for a few days to help your dog recover from an episode of constipation. Sprinkle it over your dog's food for the fastest way to resume regular bowel movements. Use about 1/2 tsp. for small dogs, or up to 2 Tbsp. per meal for very large dogs. Add a small amount of water to blend the fiber. Use sparingly and for no more than two days to ensure you don't encounter the opposite problem of dog diarrhea. Switching to a commercial diet with a higher listed fiber content (or to a veterinary prescription such as Hill's w/d, Royal Canin GI Fiber Response, or Purina's DCO) might be an easier way to supplement additional fiber without extra shopping or preparation steps. You may have to purchase or order prescription diets from your veterinarian, or you may have to obtain a written prescription for the food to purchase it from a pet food retailer. 'Fiber' is a term that describes many different polysaccharides and not all fiber is created equally. Different forms of fiber will have variable effects on water absorption, digestion, and fermentation within the intestine. This could lead to undesirable effects, including flatulence, bloating, or diarrhea. If you experience this with your dog, try changing the type of fiber or lowering the amount that you're adding. Adding excessive amounts of fiber to the diet for the goal of weight loss can also have dangerous effects by diluting essential nutrients, calories, and decreasing the absorption of some minerals.

SUMMARY: Incorporate canned pumpkin pulp into your dog's food. Steam green beans. Serve sweet potatoes. Consult your dog's veterinarian. Drop a spoonful of bran flakes, cooked oats, or millet into your dog's meal. Add an over-the-counter fiber additive. Try a new or different diet. Don't overdo it.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you've just washed your hair, wait until it's completely dry to work on your Farrah Fawcett locks. This is important as you'll be using a curling iron. Applying heat to wet hair can cause damage. Even if you've recently brushed your hair, run a brush through it before doing your Farrah Fawcett look. You want to make sure your hair is relatively tangle free so you'll be able to easily section and handle it throughout the process. Opt for a mouse that is volumizing and provides heat protection. The mousse will help your hair set as you curl it and the heat protectant is vital when curling your hair. It will help protect your hair from becoming damaged during the process. If you don't have mousse, or prefer not to use it, it's okay to simply use a heat protectant. However, while you can forego mousse, never forego the heat protectant as you do not want to damage your hair curling it. A staple of the '70s style is a middle part. Before you begin curling your hair, part it roughly in the middle of your head. This will help your hair really emulate Farrah Fawcett's. Separate the upper half of your hair using your fingers. Then, secure this hair with a clip. You will be curling your hair in sections to achieve Farrah Fawcett locks.

SUMMARY:
Make sure your hair is dry. Brush out your hair. Apply mousse with a built in heat protectant. Part your hair in the center. Clip up the top part of your hair.
