Posted to: News & Entertainment
Bugsy gets so excited around people and kids especially - we try to work on it but we don't have a lot of traffic through so I decided to take him to the Raleigh Christmas Parade. We were there for nearly 2 hours and he was awesome! We walked some which was more difficult because of the crowds and...

I hate dentists!

Today, driving through a nearby town to go to DW's bank, we passed a coin-op car wash. This guy was finished washing his truck and proceeded to rinse off his old Golden, who appeared to like it just fine. He stood there patiently. We didn't have time to stay and see if he sprinkled water everywhere...

Swamp Thing
Posted to: Training & Behavior
Here's a new dilema. Dutch, the adopted 7 month old chocolate lab now likes to jet out into the swamp after going outside to do his business. He gets to go on an hour walk every morning and plays in the yard now and then during the day, so he gets decent exercise. Unfortunately the yard is not fenced...

My Dog gets snarly when I'm nearby
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Question: How would you guys handle this? A dog who is very good with other dogs in general, but gets snarly when she's with other dogs in the presence of her owner? If it were my dog, I'd move away from her as it seems like resource guarding- I don't want her to guard me, so I withdraw...
