    it is at the front of the dog's brain and below the cerebral cortex which comes forward and kind of curls at the forehead area..below that is where the pituitary gland is. Pretty much located between the back of the throat and the eyes, so yes they would go up thru the roof of the mouth.
    You had mentioned the cerebellum and pituitary being at the base of the brain in your post about tremors. The cerebellum being what we think of as the base of the brain...in back where the spinal column would descend, whereas the pituitary is in the front..that's all I was saying, the brain stem would separate the back from the front. It is actually the same location as in a human brain.

    No snow here....sunny and beautiful, cool and breezy, a perfect spring day. Trixie had a long time off leash and I'm sure we'll be out again later. Just right for her...kind of cool the way she likes it. Hope the snow stops by you, maybe tomorrow will be better dog walking weather.
