Pork brains!
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I found frozen pork brains in a little tub at a local grocery store. I know that brain is a superior source of DHA, and I really want to give them to my dogs. I'm a little iffy, though, because brain is not something people talk about feeding. I've never fed brain, outside of the head (yeah,...

From what I understand he goes outside to play and go potty quite often as she doesn't work, she walks him several...

I think our 3 month old great dane thinks it is OK to pee in his crate.....never poops in his crate and doesn't pee in the house any where. As a matter of fact if we are playing with him and he has to go he will run to the door so he "get it"....However at night in his crate he use to cry...

Keeping Dogs Fresh
Posted to: Health & Grooming
How do you keep your dogs fresh in between baths? The way my pups get dirty, I want to wash them everyday like I do myself, but I know that I can't do that. I try to wipe their feet and whatever other dirty spots, but it never lasts. What's your secret?

Vacuum help

Can anyone recommend a good vacuum cleaner? I vacuumed my living room on Saturday and just happened to notice that it didn't pick up any dog hair. NONE. I certainly can't afford a Dyson, that's for sure. We may have discussed this before but I was just wondering what you guys use...Aside...

Sharing a crate
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Our dogs each have a small crate to retreat to in their pen in the kitchen. Winnie hardly ever, if ever, uses it. She pulls the blanket out and sleeps on the floor. Petey uses his pretty often. But, with it getting much colder around here, I noticed that they've both been in one crate when I go...

Martingale collar with a chain - legal?
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
I'm going to begin to trial Trudy in novice obedience UKC. Can I use a leather martingale collar with a a chain? She's been training on a pinch and I think that a martingale with a chain would be the best next step for novice.
