Pitbulls are absolutely terrifying. Especially the one I sleep in bed with every night.

I adopted my lab when he was exactly 9 months old. I usually feel insanely lucky when I read about other dogs' 9 month old antics.

However, we adopted him on a rainy day, then drove him to...

Isn't that scary though with the leave it exercise? I thought the point of that requirement was to make sure the dog wouldn't pick anything harmful up that the handler might not notice, like a...

Welcome back! I remember you were around when I had joined the board the first time. I think you had a black and white photo for your avatar... I can't really remember it, but I rememer that I used...

I use "Off" as my command for my dogs to not jump. My pitbull almost never ever jumps on anyone. My lab though, as soon as he get's that certain twinkle in his eye, I say off, and it usually prevents...

Growing up, my family was always a 1 dog at a time kind of family. When I moved out on my own, the first thing I wanted to do was get a dog. My boyfriend wanted a GSP, but I didn't think that with...

I don't get what's adverse about the phrase. Common only means that it happens often. Of course kidney stones are a common condition. It doesn't mean normal, it doesn't mean they aren't painful. I...

I think that to start, I would also look for a positive based trainer. In fact, my only regret with my lab who I adopted when he was 9 months old is that I didn't start with positive reinforcement...

Aw! It looks good... just like what you described that you wanted! Great job by both of you 😊

I second everything labradorks said! I'm a new Denise Fenzi fan, but am so glad that I've learned about her. I definitely did some things in a way that was just not going to work for my dog and I in...

No, there's no title that you would use with their first name when speaking.

So, you saw a certified family nurse practitioner. CRNP's (certified registered nurse practitioners) can be in different specialties, and sometimes their title reflects that, other times I just see...

I just got a pair of these and love them. They are the same materiel as a soft t-shirt. Only downside to me is that they don't have...

What a hoot! He's just so stinkin' cute too! I love how you can just tell by looking at Hemi that he just loves his Dad!

This sounds completely wonderful.

Okay, I started the Dognition games today, so now I can say I'm involved in citizen science! I'll let you know how it turns out!

I'm definitely going to watch for the lunar eclipse too! When I...

Speaking of citizen science, has anyone tried dognition? I forget if the website is dognition.com or what, but I had been contemplating giving it a try.

Chloe has such a sweet looking face; I really love her expression! It does look like you could squeeze another family member in the portrait between Chloe and the pups though...

I'm definitely giving that article a look when I get home! My boy is getting so much better with every day run of the mill greetings these days, but we're learning sit and stand for exam in classes,...

I just went back and saw that you listed pray too!

This one was kind of easy, so I'll go through it real quick!

So, first I had my dog sit in front of a chair. I taught him to put his paws...

Is he used to wearing boots? We had a foster dog who accidentally ripped of a nail. Her paw needed to be wrapped for a few days. She wouldn't put it down the first day. I kind of kept that in...

That sounds so fun!! It's gotta be so exciting to watch them blossom from puppyhood (is that a word?) on.

This makes a ton of sense! I'll give the slip collar a try. Thank you!

Hey! I thought since it's been a good three months I would update! We decided to try ProPlan, and whatever the reason may or may not be, it's working like a charm. No more soft stool, no new issues,...

Maybe I'm lucky, but between my own dog, and foster dogs, I've never had a problem with the "teenage phase." I think people say that it's from around 9-18 months? Maybe it's because I end up...
