We have been having some behavior issues with Sydney. Nothing serious, but we didn't want things to get serious before we tried to intervene. We decided to give NILIF a try. Plus we are going to be returning to doing regular training sessions everyday...

I have a one year old bearded collie that likes to try and run at cars and trucks, the louder the better, is there any way I can break her of this habit before my arm gets broken, she is only one but is pretty strong, weighs about 50 lbs. thanks for anyones...

Isis is such a good little motivator. (Though some argue she's not so little.) We've been walking every morning, because even when I don't feel like it, I know she does, and it makes her so happy. I do need to be more diligent about...

Brody was named after Chief Brody, the main character in my favorite movie "Jaws". He is now 9 1/2 months old and I got him when he was 6 weeks old. He didn' t learn how to bark until 10 weeks of age and up until then was screeching like...

just starting this blog, I have a golden named rachel, she lives with me and 6 kitties...she loves her kitties...they all love her except the senior kitty... Rachel is going to the river tomorrow...this is her favorit place to go, she gets so happy...

I barely slept at all last night. There's a dumb dog-related thing that is needlessly giving me stress that I don't feel like going in to that kept me up, but then there's also the fact that Marlowe has discovered that if he comes up to our...

The countdown to the end of the work week begins: 7 hours to go. I'm going to return the Furminator. It's not worth the money to me. I have to condition Dakota's coat, then brush the knots out then use the furminator. Forget all of that. She...

My dog is a chewer. He has yet to have a toy he hasn't destroyed, even the Kong was no match for my pooch. Does anyone know of a toy that can last for chewers? I've heard a few whispers about a toy called a Hurley? It is supposed to last and last...

I raise Siberian huskies. I show them at dog shows and training them for sledding. I live in the city of Niagara Falls. I have more dogs then the city allows, whitch is 2. But my dogs are kept in the yard and well taken care of. I have one neighbor that...

Wolfie went to the vet today and got a clean bill of health and he does have two testicles after all (not sure what his previous owners think neuter is). He behaved wonderfully at the vets and was friendly with all, canines and humans. He seems to love...

Any suggestions for alternative toys for a power chewer? I have been giving Mulligan Nylabones, but she seems to get some bigger pieces off which results in her throwing up. I feed her in the morning and in the evening and the ONLY snack she gets are...

Well I have found that herding is a challenging activity, but using this blog makes it look easy. I know I have a blog. I even have a comment regarding my first blog post. However I do not seem to be able to easily find my blog when I use the blog link...

Today has been very busy! I was just settling in to work this morning when all of the sudden Mom announced that we were going for a car ride. Hey, I'm always game to leave the office! I was a very good boy at that Saturn place while Mom got my...

I am an MBA student who is considering starting up a Dog Playground business with several of my classmates. We're in the process of formulating the business model and viability. Please take the survey at the link below that lists nine questions about...

Zimbabwe. I have friends and co workers from Africa...specifically from Ghana. They have told me of the beauty that is Zimbabwe. I want to go there.

My experience at the local Central Market.

Well as many of you know, Wolfie was free from his chain as of yesterday around noon. He is doing well and I am really pleased with his behaviour so far. He is going to make someone a great dog. He is terribly worried about being left alone, which...

I've been going back and forth about buying this thing forever it seems. Well, I talked to a groomer friend of mine and she suggested that I try it out on my husky. So, I went to the pet store and because I'm such a loyal customer they gave it...

I am loading up some pics of Wolfie. Would love comments from any GSD people.

I promised a friend that I'd go to the gym with her tonight. However, my exam is looming on the horizon and if I do go to the gym tonight that means I won't study. What to do. The dogs already went to the dog park so they are good. OK the gym...
