Help with a problem
Posted to: Training & Behavior
I have a 5 month old Aussie. He's doing well on sit/wait/down commands, and he does great off leash in the yard when I take him out to go to the bathroom. My problem is his front feet. When I put him in a "sit", he reaches up and tries to claw you to death with his feet, almost like he's...

Shedding Boxer
Posted to: Health & Grooming
My one year old Boxer sheds quite a bit. We have tried about six or seven different kinds of brushes and nothing will get the hair off her. We brush her and it all ends up on her butt and then we have to pull the handfuls of it off. Anyone have a good brush for the short hair?

Ok my 2 have been on this food for about a month and 1/2 and they are still chewing (not all the time) a little bit on their feet. Could that be from something outside?

Raw Prey Model
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
Shadow had a raw prey model experience. We were walking along a state highway in the bar ditch next to a grain field. He's been liking this stretch because there are plenty of scent tracks so that he can enjoy the hunting dog part of his heritage. He caught a mouse. I kept hearing this squeak and...
