Can A mother dog teach puppies to be afraid of people?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I got a puppy about a month ago who was a few days shy of 6 weeks old at the time. They were getting rid of them and said if not taken then they were getting "knocked in the head" so ya know it was a bad situation. Anyway he is a great puppy but has a real fear of urinating or having a bowel...

Yeay! Trudy did a clean Run in 55 sec.
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
We had our last agility class last night. We did a UKC Intermediate course (19 obstacles with weaves and a down crawl, to boot). We were timed and judged and Trudy did a clean run in 55 sec.! Trudy has been struggling with the teeter for a while now and this was a huge breakthrough. I bought...

So our new puppy is going in his crate. I spoke with a vet that I work with and she said that some puppies who are from animal control or the humane society have lost in inhibition against going in the crate. He's not in the crate all that often and for now is being watched most of the time. We confine...

Posted to: Training & Behavior
Does anybody do that? the behaviourist said it might be a good idea for my guy, but uhm...the logistics don't quite fit. He eats 4 cups of dry food in the morning and another 4 in the afternoon. I haven't measured, but I'm guessing we would need at least three of the large kongs to have a...

Hi everyone! I'm Bella. I have a three year old male neutered weim, named Duke. He is the quirkiest silliest dog I've ever owned, and we love him to death. I'd always had border collies, so we researched weims a lot before we actually got him, and thought we were up to the challenge. So...

Disappointed with Orka Jack
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I must say that I'm quite disappointed with the Orka Jack. I bought two, one for Rose and one for Colton. Colton shreds stuffed toys occassionally but has never demolished something like this so easily. Within ten minutes, one of the spikes is broken off. It takes him longer to eat his dinner! In...

How long does this last? Copper is a little over a year and he is constantly wanting to tear up (anything fabric) and chew on his toys (anything rubber/hard). He's 1/2 Australian Shepherd. I thought he would be out of it by now or am I just mistaken?
