what to do during a dog attack
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Some people say you should curl up to protect your vital organs; others say you should fight back and hit the dog when his jaws are on you. Just to set the record straight, what are you actually supposed to do (and not do) if you are attacked by a dog or a pack of dogs?

NOW can you guess the breed? 18 days old
Posted to: News & Entertainment
So, I'm asking again- the pups are older- 18 days in these pics and weigh between 36 and 44 ounces. They all three seem to have a wooly undercoat. Or, is it still too early to guess the breed mix? I'm putting the pics in separate posts in this thread- otherwise the file is too big..

Whats this
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Ok, I'm a little embarrassed to ask, but does anyone know what this rash is. It doesn't look like much, but it itches really bad. It is on my chest, in a very odd place for a rash to be. Any ideas would be greatly appriciated.[sm=blush.gif]

Hi, My girlfriend and I picked up a 3mo old French Bulldog named Maggie last Saturday so we've now had her for about a week and 2 days. We are crate training of course and it's going pretty well. She still cries in the crate but we ignore her and she is getting better. I have many questions...

Socks & Shoes

My dog Rocky has a thing with socks and shoes. He doesn't chew them up. Instead, he collects them. He will carry shoes and socks into his kennel, his bed, and occassionally into our bed. The other day he grabbed a sock lying next to him and pulled it onto him like it was a blanket. It's not so...
