Xerxes the barker; update
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I finally figured out the "why" as far as Xerxes barking. He's got a mild case of SA. He used to deal with this by chewing up my blankets (I have surgically precise incisions in two of them.) I began putting them away during the day: that's when the barking started. So the solution...

Hello, I hope some of you can give us some advice on our problem. To start off, we adopted Shadow from a local shelter almost a year ago. Unfortunately, the shelter did not know the history of Shadow as he was transferred from the Philadelphia shelter. He is a mix between a Spaniel and a Border Collie...

Bad Neighbors

We have some neighbors down the street that moved in around June. Since this time, they have oozed over the entire street. They park junk cars up and down the street, they have trashed their yard which eventually blows down to ours and worse of all they now have 3 families living in their house. Okay...

Cairo shows some personality
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Finally! This dog is so hard to get personality shots of because he loathes the camera. It's such a shame because he is the master of making uber cute faces. But finally I've managed to snap a couple that actually show a wee bit of his true personality shining through. Pretty much the only way...

best skin/coat supplement?
Posted to: Health & Grooming
. Ok, I confess, I tried a different food with poultry fat, so I'm guilty, since he obviously is allergic/sensitive to chicken/poultry. [sm=blush.gif] He hasn't started any itching/scratching but his hair has started falling out again. I'm going back to the solid gold/nutro nat. choice canned...
