Yes, there was a lot of learning theory involved. For those with years in the business [Robi:)], I could see where this could have been very elementary. That...
Thanks Robi, and that is what we are doing in the classroom setting. I was looking for more suggestions for her to try at home, where Valerie is more...
Hi Laura I would give the puppy socialization chart in my folder and explain how they have to go MUCH slower with this dog, but they need to do the treat for...
My first question - is the sit really all that important? Maybe she just needs to forget about the sit and instead work on confidence, etc. Usually we use the...
I would echo what Mary says. I would ask what the family wants to do with this dog. If they just want a good pet then any stationary position is fine - work...
Just wanted to let everyone know how Shadow's knee issues are going. I went with the least evasive path. Six weeks ago she started on 4 PhyCox Chews daily,...
You might want to look into ligaplex (I think that's how u spell it). I have been giving that to louis since we discovered his acl issue and seems to be doing...
Ok - So, with Gus, I'm at that time where we've finished our puppy classes and all of the summer activities are winding down. We've gotten into our routine of...
Hi Mary - There are lots of dog events during the holiday season and most I think get listed in Cleveland Canine. You might want to check it out. When Woody...
Mary, this might be a hike for you but we love going to chagrin falls every now and then. We walk around the little down town area and they have a nice little...
Mary, if you would like to bring him to my puppy classes play session at the end of class, feel free (mondays, 8pm)! He is a small dog, so I think he would be...
Thanks for all the advice guys, just wanted to let you know how it turned out. I ended up moving Meghan to a smaller class, and we concentrated more on...
Anyone heard anything about holistic vet Nancy Decker? Good, Bad etc.. I think I want to take Shadow there, because I know the next step will be Rimadyl for...
Hi Robi, The reviews I have received on her have been quite mixed to say the least. Probably half and half saying they liked her and didn't like her. Daniela...
I don't have any experience with her so I can not add much on that topic, but on the topic of alternatives to Rymadyl you might want to look into "Dog Gone...
I had Shadow on DGP for awhile and thought it was helping but then it just stopped showing any help. The Phycox chews seemed to help too then they aren't on...
I would second DGP. As a matter of fact, Dr. Decker may recommend that. She gave me something (sold me something) called "Pain Plus" when I went to see her....
One more thing. Dr. Decker did call me back yesterday (they were closed) and we talked about the diabetes. The knee was off my radar at that point. She was...
Robi , I absolutely love dr nan. I use her as my everyday vet. She takes her time with all my dogs , she replies to emails and always calls back right away....
I knew when Daniela chimed in it would be good. That sums it up exactly for me. You will ether click with her or you won't an you must be prepared to ask lots...
I was reading this on my blackberry and missed the post about shaddow's diabetes. Sending good vibes your way....its so tough when our babies are not well. I'm...
Surprisingly Shadow's blood test came back NOT showing diabetes. My doctor said she's only remembers this once before and the dog developed it later on. So we...
Awesome news, Robi! I can imagine the relief and weightlessness you must be feeling now. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry ... From: "rlkscrap"...
This is good to hear! Hopefully diet change will keep this at bay for a good long time! I guess it gives you something new to work on anyway. Ed Ed Dickson,...
