A socialisation question
Posted to: News & Entertainment
We have been using the yelp-and-sulk technique when it comes to teaching Ben bite inhibition, and it already seems to be having results.

No more babies for us
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Hubby went to see the DR and is going to finalize the deal. We will not be having any more children. Six months ago, I really wanted another, he did not. I was so mad at him I was not speaking to him. Then I decided no more. I think it was just the idea of having a baby. Sure it seems like a great idea...

Rescue kittens almost a year later....
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I can't believe how big the rescue kitties are getting..... they are pretty much cats now. It's funny because I see their parents everyday at work, and then I come home and see how spoiled and lucky these guys are! The grey one is Bagee and the black one is Bishop.

Is peanut butter okay?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I bought a kong for my dog, and the guy at the pet store said that I could fill it with peanut butter. Is this okay? And what kind of peanut butter should I use? Can I use Skippy Creamy PB? TIA

Help! Is he not too young to be doing this?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Ben was in his crate today and started humping the cushioned part of his bed. I mean REALLY going at it. He'd stop, take a rest, and do it some more, and he kept it up for the better part of half an hour. Isn't 2 months too young for that behaviour? I mentioned it to my other half, who said he...

How to stop a dog from biting/chewing on EVERYTHING?

Why do dogs...
Posted to: Training & Behavior
Hey, all. I was wondering the other day about a couple of things that all dogs seem to do, and I'm curious as to if anyone knows what inspires these particular behaviors: 1) Why do dogs, especially puppies, get their favorite toy in their mouths and then just shake the heck out of it sometimes?...
