Thanks for sharing that info with us! I'm going to try the frozen Kong when I leave him this morning. We had tried it before but all we managed to do then...
Samantha - No, that must be a different Michelle. I have a chocolate lab and I post and read messages on a labrador retriever forum that has been incredibly...
if you can, try to give them the kong not right when you leave but beforehand, so he'll hopefully be so distracted that he won't focus on you leaving. in terms...
Meredith, Thank you so much for posting that information. I think I am going to buy
that book so that I can refer back to it if need be since in Rescue, we end...
He started barking and whining as soon as he finished the Kong which was maybe 5 minutes. I also left out a Flossie for him which he normally loves but he...
Sorry to hear that its not working for you, I'm wondering what size kong he has. We're using the very large one, Samantha is 50 lbs., so it takes about 30 min....
Hi Samantha, I would try stuffing soaked kibble in his Kong and putting it in the fridge for a while so it hardens a bit. When I first tried feeding my dog in...
Hi Michelle, I would start feeding your pup in his crate, with his food put in Kongs (please see my previous posts regarding this). I've had good results doing...

Hello, Today I was out of the apt from 7:30am-3:30pm for class. Usually either my boyfriend or I let our 6 month old beagle (Cooper) out at noon but today I...
It sounds like he had some anxiety, but I don't know if it is truly SA. Maybe he heard something outside that set him off. And since the music wasn
t on to...
He does get a kong filled with his dry food and peanut butter and I'm sure the long day didn't help the problem w/ him being anxious. My neighbors have never...

My vet says rawhides are fine for dogs, but if they might swallow them whole, it is better if they don't have knots, etc. which are harder to get down. We...
Hello I recently adopted a second male beagle to keep the first one company, but I am a little leary to leave them out all day while I am at work. My first...
Do you have a small, separate, safe room you could keep them in so that you could try it out to see if there is major damage? Heather smurfette92602...
Hi Guys, It's been a REALLY long time since I've posted here, but I just wanted to give and update on how Lucy is doing since it might encourage others. Lucy...
Lorin, I am SO HAPPY to hear that Lucy is doing so much better. That Thyroid can really throw a dog for a loop. The same happens with Boxers...if they are on...
Hi there, I just joined the list- so glad to have this resource! I am dealing with separation anxiety in my 8-year-old labrador retriever, Bruno. We adopted...
Hi everyone. I recently got Hercules (great dane) in to see the vet, they gave me the same advise I have gotten here and from the numerous books and web...
If this is the est vet around, I would run....not walk...to a new vet. Your vet does not sound very helpful, and should have probably done more testing of some...
we found that our vet also did really nothing, he even prescribed the same meds for our dog. we then went to a second vet who did lead tests, and blood tests. ...
