So Simba's first day of obedience class is tomorrow. I'm excited for him since this means more socialization, hopefully he'll do well with the distractions of the other dogs being there. :)

For those who've had dogs break foot bones.....
Posted to: Health & Grooming
what did your vet do? Sage hurt her foot sometime Wednesday. Wasn't sure how bad so the plan was to watch her. She would limp when walking, put some weight on it standing but preferred to hold it up. She's got the cutest little hop/run that she does to keep from putting pressure on it but still...

My beagle/pug mutt, Sophie is so smart. She is a problem solver and she knows a LOT of tricks, but she will only do them if she knows shes gonna get a treat.
