Q: I cannot locate Iams lamb-and-rice dog biscuits anymore. Can you help me? Susan Hawkins, Atlanta
A: Susan, according to the representative I spoke with at Iams, the company stopped production on its dog biscuits last spring. However, Iams also owns Nutro Natural Choice pet foods, and the rep suggested you might want to try the grain-free, all-natural lamb-and-potato biscuits as a substitute. You can find a 1-pound bag of Nutro dog biscuits for $9.99 at Pet Supermarket, 2900 Peachtree Road, Atlanta, 404-841-5770.
Q: I have multiple old film canisters that I would like to have processed. Is there some place in the metro Atlanta area where I can take 35mm film to be developed? Thank you. Cindy Farrington, email

Q: For years, I’ve bought Bruce’s sweet potato pancake mix in a large box. It’s now completely disappeared. I’ve looked in every store I can imagine. Occasionally, I run across the mix in a small envelope, but those are too small for my family. Is the big box available anywhere? I don’t mind driving. K. Flynn, email
A: This flavorful mix provides pancakes quickly by simply adding water. While Bruce's complete sweet potato pancake and waffle mix is not as easy to find as it was once, it's currently available at The Fresh Market, 2480 Briarcliff Road, Atlanta, 404-321-0674. A 24-ounce box costs $6.99.
