Please friends say a prayer that my friend Lesa's hopes be realized. Thank you all. Sally Hi Sally, I accepted a rescued dog 2 weeks ago and she was really...
I'm so sad for my friend as feels she must find a home for an 8 month old puppy that she and her nearly 13 year old son love. This dog she got for her son. A...
Kristen, The fact that you feel that it's alright for any animal to spend 2/3 of a day in a crate really disturbs me. While I agree, that crating is a positive...
Lori, I couldn't agree with you more on the "advance" correction. Keena, being a pup, LOVES to put everything in her mouth. If it's there, it must be sampled....
First, please sign your name in future posting so we may be able to address your postings personally. This pup definitely needs exercise. You might consider...
Chris & Onyx, I agree Chris, with the siblings. I just fostered two females that we adopted out separately. It was obvious from get go that these two will be...
Queen Size Blankets work as well over show crates (the wired ones) You can get these from any goodwill store. The problem is, that everytime the pup is locked...
HI all - Ok I'll tell you my humble opinion on this subject. The two times that my dog was in a fight where he was bitten, I did not know pack leader skills at...
It is a consideration but not the main reason. The main reason is they ingest things like couch cushions etc. They are safer where they are for all reasons. ...
Hi I think it does make a difference introducing adult males into a pack situation vs. raising new ones into existing packs from 8 week old. I usually only let...
Well admittedly I don't know if its right, but I remove the object, shsst both and then ignore them. maybe sssshst and put in a down stay one on either side of...
for larger dogs you need to feed 2x daily to prevent stomach problem (i forgot the name of it) that is deadly. For little puppies you feed 3-4 times daily and...
Linda, I in no way meant to make you feel like you were being attacked. I'm sorry if it sounded that way. It's great to hear where you work is such at...
Prong collars can be a great tool if used and fitted properly. If you a leary of the medevil looking device they make rubber tips to place over the prongs....
Linda If you are talking about last weeks episode it was a Vizsla not a Weim and having done temperment testing on litters I would say that pup's biggest...
My first thought is MAYBE the energy either or both of you are projecting is not clear enough to the pup as being firm ( not mean) and quiet. Pups are babies...

Hi My opinion is intact males are not an issue as long as one is happy to be less dominant. Yes, I am the alpha but they do still figure out their pecking...
I don't want to be a downer and at risk of wrath of kind souls everywhere I have to ask is this a Real Life friend that you know and can vouch for or an...
MOnica, I don't live in Texas but if you go into "google" and type in dog parks, it will ask you for what state. You can go from there. Thats how I found the...
I just had to jump in here and see what you all are talking about. The "visual thing". The only thing I don't like about the greyhound racing is that I hear ...
Monica, I meant to say go into google and type in "dog parks Texas". You will probably find them there. Vicki ... wrote: does anyone live near here that knows...
This sounds as if it were sudden... should have complete vet check and let vet know the problem... if there is no underlying medical I hope she can find new...
Hi, You didn't post your name so don't know who I'm addressing here. Anyway, Welcome to the forum. Get Cesar's book "Cesar's way" and read it. I would have...
There may be more to the story than what you posted here, so keep in mind, I'm just reacting to what's here. Keep in mind also, this is NOT an attack on your...
Hi Catroina, Welcome to the group. You sound like such a loving dog owner. Nice to hear and am so sorry about the loss of your dog. I'm sure you will find...
Lori, Thanks for your input on this subject. I always enjoy reading your comments. I've been very lucky with this. My Besse and Bear (siblings) play very rough...
Kristen, What a great post! Only one of my dogs is crated when I'm gone and he was able to stop being in the crate at night at about a year old. He sleeps...
