Luna's most *excellent* training opportunity
Posted to: News & Entertainment
So, ok ... this is more shameless brag than anything -- I'm so proud of her I could BURST! This is long but hopefully entertaining as well as the true story of this morning. We do pet therapy with all our dogs - it ranges from going to an alzheimer's home, a home for developmentally disabled...

Poor Emma
Posted to: Health & Grooming
The kid can't catch a break. We spent this morning at the vet's office doing a barium series, thinking she was going to have emergency surgery. $200 later, she has an upset stomach and three prescriptions. She hasn't held down a meal since Sunday. She *did* hold down her dinner tonight, but...

what to do during the day...
Posted to: Training & Behavior
Hello everyone, I need some advice as to what to do with my 10mo old Aussie during the day. My husband works 8-6 and I work night shift, so I sleep during the day. Usually I keep the dogs in my room with me until about 12pm and then let them outside. If it is nice outside in the mornings we will just...

at the shelter
Posted to: News & Entertainment
We went to the Sherman Animal Shelter today to ask what donations they could use, and ended up looking at the dogs and my wife was tempted to get one. If we didn't already have a dog, we would have gotten one or two. There was a siberian there with eyes like Shadow's except Shadow's eyes...

Whole Body Is Sore
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Bailey got her shots yesterday (a puppy combo not really sure what involved... I know I should know better but I just do what vet says) and now we cant even pick her up without her yelping. If you pet her too far down on her back she yelps even if its a VERY gentle pet... BUT what really bothers me is...

Innova or any diet
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
For all you Innova feeders out there, do you usually rotate foods, and why? I am trying Evo for my furkids and it is their first time off of the RC Limited Ingredients Diet. I am not a firm believer in mixing the homecooked and kibble b/c I think their digestive systems should get used to one or the...

Wow, I haven't been on I-dog is some time! Every few weeks I'll go through, but never post or even sign in. I guess the whole new format ( still is 'new' to me, anyway ) got me over-whelmed! For those who may not remember me, ( or the newer members ) I have Hope, the pit bull mix. Oh...

Boomer Update
Posted to: News & Entertainment
HI everyone, Boomer spent most of the day at the vets. And the good news is that the doctor seems to thinks he can save the leg. He will have to go in and essentially break it again, apparently higher up and then reset it not using a pin but something else, I don't remember what it was but...
