Bugsy's shoulder
Posted to: Health & Grooming
many of you are aware we have been dealing with a front end limp since the end of July with no significant improvement through rest, NSAIDS or pure pain relief (tramadol). We went to an orthosurgeon that couldn't find anything specific outside of some missing cartilage in his toe. I didn't believe...

How often do your dog's nails need to be trimmed?
Posted to: Health & Grooming
I just read an article in Bark and they said their one dog's nails stay at an ideal length just from walking a couple of miles a day on mixed surfaces and that their other dog needs theirs done every couple of months from the same exercise. I know a ton of people that get them done by a groomer 1x...

My dog ingested rat poison...and lived!

Wednesday chat
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Not much going on here. I took the dogs for a hike last night to the place I call "the pond". Well, the pond was bone dry. Not a drop of water to be seen. It usually gets low at the end of the summer but there will still be a couple feet of water in it. Not this year apparently. I kept listening...

I was thinking it would be great to buy cards for the holiday card swap from a non profit group that helps dogs. Anyone know of a legit group selling cards?

I made Bugsy a special breakfast this morning
Posted to: News & Entertainment
We have one of those Lysol soap dispensers for the dish washing soap - you know the kind where you put your sponge or hands underneath it and it automatically dispenses soap. Well I had put his kibble in the bowl, added the 7 million supplements he's getting at the moment and went to add a bit of...

What others say about your dog.
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Just wanted to make a small brag and announce that Ribbon (about to turn 1) has gone from being referred to a "trouble" with our doggy friends to being called "pretty". That's right! She is no longer the least behaved dog in the group. Does your nose get put out of joint when...

Teaching a dog to bark (so I can teach him "quiet")
Posted to: Training & Behavior
I've heard the best way to teach a dog a "quiet" command is to teach it to bark on command, so he learns the difference between "speak" and "quiet". I'd like tips on how to do this; at the moment Boone only barks when he's alerting to "danger"; this...

Posted to: News & Entertainment
I haven't posted much and for those who aren't on Facebook, my sweet little angel went to the Rainbow Bridge on September 19th. He was my heart dog and even though he's been sick and I knew the day would come, I don't think it has completely hit me yet. He passed away at home in his...
