Dog to Dog Communication
I just received a copy of Jamie Shaw's book, "Dog to Dog Communication." It's geared toward pet owners, not trainers, and has lots of valuable information on how to tell if dogs' interactions are OK, what to expect from different breed groups, how to tell if your dog likes day care...

Thermometer
I recently had the need to keep a close eye on Heidi's temperature. I found a thermometer that reads in 8 seconds! Its made by Vicks and is called "SpeedRead" thermometer. Of course, the best feature is that you only need to keep it inside for literally seconds. But, the other cool thing...

Dog Books

Trifexis
We recently lost our 5 year old lab-Beau-to a sudden heart attack. I had begun him on Triflexis earlier that day. Is there any literature that might back-up any findings that this medication could have caused this sudden heart attack in what appeared to be a perfectly healthy, happy 5 year old lab?

Housetraining method!
When I first got my puppy Ava it was a bit of a struggle to keep her because I felt bad that I couldn't take her out enough. She's a German Shepard and I would take her out in the mornings and for long walks at night. However, when I am gone at work for long periods of time I think she is bored...

Crate mat suggestions?
Hi, I'm looking to buy 5 water-resistant, sturdy crate mats for my crew. I've looked at Primo Pads, Duracrate mats, K-9 Ballistics, and Kong. Does anyone have experience with any of these brands? My dogs aren't likely to eat their mats, although you never know. I'm more concerned about...

Cooper loves ice cream as much as I do!
This probably made the rounds on Facebook already, but since I'm not on FB, I just came across it today. I thought it would give everyone a smile on a day when we're feeling sad about Doug's sweet Piper going to the Bridge. It really made me laugh. If I did something wrong with the linking...
