Training is a breeze, but one problem!
Posted to: Training & Behavior
Okay, my mom is sick of Nicholas, the chihuahua who lived in the downstairs of our house with our german shepherd. See, he's not very housetrained. Though, most chihuahuas I've met are nutcases.So, they wanted to give him away or take him to the pound after he peed on my mom's new pillow...

Applying a few days early?

Posted to: News & Entertainment

Now when I take Shelby and Souffle with me, they are on a coupler and I walk them with a traffic lead so they are right at my side. As I'm...

Question about scraps
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
Hi, I was wondering if feeding my dog scraps was such a bad thing? I don't think it is, but I'm young, and have heard many different sides to this issue. I only feed him good things like rice, chicken, beef, meatloaf (if we have some left over), etc. I think he needs this in his diet, especially...

Training the trio
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I was reading the clicker training thread and thought it sounded interesting, and I was thinking that maybe my trio would benefit from it. They haven't had any classes or anything, but they are all really intelligent dogs so I think they might pick up on it pretty quickly. I saw someone posted about...
