Sniper's breeds? Guesses?
I put pictures of Sniper on a few months ago for anyone to guess what she might be, but I figured I would put some new ones up as she will soon be 7 months old, and I know it's easier to tell breed makeup the older they are. Any guesses? [IMG]http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff186/BrianaLoren/Wrinkless...

Help!! My boyfriend's allergic to my Pomeranian!!
I had the dog first!! Everytime my boyfriend comes over to visit, his eyes start to get itchy. He loves my dog, but he's allergic! I bought a Dyson vacuum and use that constantly. I've read that a fatty acid supplement can help. What can I do???

how do you handle breed discrimination?
This is something that has been bugging me lately. The amount of comments i get when i take my dogs out is absurd. I absolutely understand that not everyone likes german shepherds, or the other "bad breeds". I'm just sort of sick of all the rude comments. I used to try and take the time...

Field Spaniel!
Ooh Ooh Ooh OOOH! I saw my first Field Spaniel last nigth on the Eukanuba Show and WOW I fell in love. Growing up Cocker's were my favorite, I had two and as I got older I disliked them more (dont be offended cocker owners) because the shape of their heads and their eyes can look buggy sometimes...

Greyhound folks-If anyone knows of a group
that will adopt to people even tho they have an baby...please let me know. Someone I know is looking to rescue and was told to reapply when their daughter was ten. They didn't really want to wait that long. They already have a sighthound so they know what they're like.
