... Ty, You can get assorted booties at REI. We got ruffwear. I think if you go to their website they have a section explaining how to get the right size. My...
I've tried a lot of different booties for dogs and think that www.ruffwear.com has the best. They have improved them agian now also but I haven't tried them...

Ty, Thanks for sharing your photos. Looks like great fun. I bet the first night Neo was trying to figure out why you were sleeping on the ground when you...

I'm having trouble finding the part of this bill that refers to what Jan was saying. I notice the original call for action was sent by a member of a breed...
I'm in full support of this well-crafted bill. And I'm certainly not "anti-pet" by any means/stretch! My entire life/work (literally) has been dedicated to...
The bill would require spay/neuter by age four months. Early spay/neuter is the current practice of many vets and of most shelters and adoption programs....
Below is the actual proposal. I don't actually see anything in here that seems too unreasonable and warrants such alarmist outrage. It appears to be attempting...

Unfortunately Politicians only know one way to fix a problem, more laws. This Bill is aimed directly at the responsible breeders. It's real purpose is to...
