Posted to: News & Entertainment
My sister (who is PREGNANT btw, and visiting from Florida) looked out the window a little bit ago and saw that the neighbor's house, all of..10 feet? from ours is TENTED for termites! Did they warn us? Tell us to close our windows? Keep pets inside? Anything like that? NO! I don't understand...

Tricks Class - Can I Have a Cookie?
Posted to: Training & Behavior
So, one of my students who is taking my tricks class was at a loss as to what kind of trick to teach her dog (large male Akita) last week. He likes me, and will often come up to me for scritches or a cookie in between whatever we're doing. He isn't the most agile dog for tricks, but he's...

had my first "breeding offer" ugh!
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Scary, seriously. I take Ari to work with me more often than not. So I got stopped by someone who has "seen me around" and asked to breed her with his dog (a lab mix of some kind). I told him she was going to be spayed soon and he said why would I do that since she was a good looking dog and...

I slept like a rock last night once I put Abbie in her crate. I attempted to leave her out but she just has too much energy. The crate says "go to sleep" and out of the crate says "run around the house and chew on things, chase the cat, and bug the other dogs to play" My blackberry...

Out for a walk with the boys today on our regular route and on the way home I see 2 boxers off leash in a back yard and a young kid on the deck. I loudly say, "Get your dogs." when the boxers notice us and start to approach. (Been dealing with Woobie trying out snarky behavior and didn't...

Well the NB fish and sweet potato, grain free, is still making Tootsie itch. I just gave Advantage on Saturday and she always gets it once a month, fleas or no fleas. It can't be the fish because she never had this problem with EP fish, so... I'm thinking Orijen fish. My question is: Do I need...

Excited to see this fish food - I open it, the dogs line up and love it. I turn over the bag and LOOK at the ingredients. Yikes...they should call it HERRING...

both Lani and I have written to Bonita..
Posted to: Community Help Center
Asking her to cease and desist from posting private correspondence on the forum, painting another breeder in a bad light (whether or not that is justified) and generally asking her to STOP. After Lani edited her posts and wrote to her, she posted another piece of this correspondence, so I've edited...
