Probably going to get a dog soon
Hi, I've been placed in charge of its diet per my request of my family, so, where should I start with vegan dog nutrition? I know UV has a video on vegan cat nutrition, and I'm otherwise not sure where to start. Furthermore, what other things should I know about dog ownership...

Raw Diets the only way to go
Just wanted to let everyone know that I was one of those dog owners that lost 5 young dogs to Menu foods years ago. I got with a vet Dr. TomLonsford who noticed in his small animal practice that the dogs on commercial feed were coming down with abnormal diseases. So he put all his clients on a raw food...

While working Dodger at home
While working Dodger at home, Maze would do the exercises with us, stating quite loudly that she was not ready to retire from Obedience. So after speaking to my trainer, it was decided that Maze would go back to school. We've spoken to some other students about having Maze in the area, there will...

Our Beginner Novice debut today wasn't too shabby...
We got a 191 1/2 out of a possible 200, despite me shaking so hard the stewards thought I was going to fall on the figure 8s. LOL We lost points pretty much where I thought we would- I just thought we'd lose a lot more. Somehow, I held it together enough that I didn't cry when we were done.

Well that lasted long..
I retired Maze last season after completing her novice rally O title since I could see that she really didn't enjoy the atmosphere.. So I turned my training focus on to Sandy and Dodger for now while waiting for some tracking classes to open up for Maze. I didn't stop working her, I just didn't...

Training the Supervised Separation for CGC
I need some tips on how to train for this. Luke and I did the CGC yesterday, and he would have passed if not for this section. I sort of knew going into it that if he was going to fail, this was probably it . I couldn't have asked for better performance on the rest of it. He did everything beautifully...

The world's most ridiculous agility dog!
Dahlia and I went to a CPE trial last weekend and had a BLAST. She got two Q's (one in Jackpot and one in Standard) and ended up getting a mini-title because of the Standard Q. We're just Level 1 and so we're just sort of figuring this stuff out. Here's my ridiculously happy...

Biting his feet until bleeding
Bichon is over 10 years old. Is there anything to prevent them from chewing their own feet? I feel like it is an allergy but what do you do? Also, he was so very ill for over a week. Vet just had no ideas that seemed logical to us. Finally did blood work and the only thing she said was his liver was...

Treat Recall
There doesn't seem to be a section for posting recalls like there was on the old forum so I hope this is okay. Kong Aussie sticks have been recalled because of mold. The ones being recalled were only sold at PetSmart. Here's the specifics; http://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/dog-food-recall/kong...

Pressure Canned Chicken Thighs
I make home made dog food for my dogs, as well. We buy chicken thighs in bulk and then pressure can them for the dogs. I know I am not supposed to feed dogs cooked chicken bones because of the splintering. The pressure canned bones seem very soft to me. The question I have is this: could I blend all...
