teaching left paw and right paw?
Posted to: Training & Behavior
I'm trying to teach Romy "left paw" and "right paw". I think maybe I'm making a mistake by trying to teach them to her at the same time. She seems to get it, but then will get them mixed up. Should I only teach one or the other until she's got it down pat, and then later...

Dogs on TV
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I was thinking of getting a few channels of digital TV and I can choose two or five, or whatever, and I wanted to get a show where I can see lots of shows about dogs and other animals, so I'm wondering which network any of you watch? So far I'm thinking Animal Planet and National Geographic....

What are your favorite re-runs on TV?
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I need ideas for good re-runs to record, and watch later on TiVo. I have been recording Friends, and DH records That 70's Show, but I am getting tired of them. I already own complete DVD sets of Sex and the City, and most of the Seinfield DVDs. What are your favorite re-runs to watch?

We have been dealing with this by getting her out as much as possible, having strangers give her treats (she is very food motivated), going...

Neighbor/Fence Vent
Posted to: News & Entertainment
Last fall we replaced our picket fence with a 6' vinyl privacy fence. The main reason that put up a new fence was because we had some new neighbors move in with several little kids and my dogs were going crazy barking at them. So we spent a huge amount of money (8K) on a privacy fence and it solved...

I Am Your Dog (author unknown to me) I am your dog, and I have a little something I'd like to whisper in your ear. I know that you humans lead busy lives. Some have to work, some have children to raise. It always seems like you are running here and there, often much too fast, often never noticing...
