Please wait for a puppy from a reputable breeder. Those who breed with no regard towards the future health of the animals they produce shouldn't be supported. And no, most of the diseases can not be...

Do the parents have all the appropriate clearances? Given our breeds unfortunate genetic disease possibilities, that was one of the most important things in our search for a new family member....
This can indeed be urgent. Have participated in at least a half dozen gastric obstructions caused from tampon ingestion. I would take my dog to the ER now and hope they can make him vomit them up.
My tripod GSD has been on Duralactin for years. She has significant mobility issues and the ortho Vet at the clinic I work at recommended Duralactin, Dasaquin, Adequan and acupuncture . I am sure we...
Looks like great fun. My hubby is a motorcycle junkie as well.
My dogs do not wear collars at home, only when they leave the house. They rough house and I am not going to risk one of them getting their jaws caught, possibly breaking a jaw, strangulation, etc. I...
Me too! I love the sweet expression Single has and an so glad Hauser seems to have lots of Singles personality.
Yep, I generally just smile. This is my mutt Hauser. 6021
We have shared our lives with Labradors, both purebred and mixed most of our marriage. At one point we had a pet bred field line Labrador, Quaid and a Lab/Newfie mix, Coal at the same time. Rarely...
I work at a Veterinary Specialty/ER and we have dog park casualties in all the time. From minor scraps and abrasions to dead dogs. One client had both of her Brittany's (neutered) killed by one Lab...
I understand your reluctance to attend. I do not drink alcohol and loud music/white girl dancing, yuk! However, do think we would attend, eat, make short small talk then leave.
When we had a block wall put around the yard, we dug a trench 18" wide, 12" deep at the gate areas and poured concrete. They can not dig under any of the gates now. Know it isn't an option for...
It sounds like obsessive compulsive behavior. These things seem to manifest after the dog matures and often with a major change within their world. There are oral medications but most of the...
Wow, beautiful picture of a beautiful dog. We were at the Coyote Classic show today and Hauser got to spend time with his mom, two sisters and several other relatives. Truly love the sweet...
Thanks to everyone on the compliments. Hauser has been a real joy, lots of work (puppy, puppy, puppy) and has put constant smiles on my husbands face.
We feel truly blessed to have Hauser and owe...
Hauser is almost 4 1\2 months. Weighed #46 yesterday.
This boy is wonderful. Smart, bold, loves everyone. Starting to put on weight, weighed 46# today. Anxious to have him reconnect with his mom and sister soon. Maybe be able to make one of the days at...
This is our new baby, Hauser. The GSD in the background, Ali, is thrilled we got her a living, breathing chew toy. He is out of Amethyst Labs. This boy is incredible, we feel so blessed to have him....
My sympathies for your loss. I had to deal with my mother's home and all it's contents recently. She had lived in this house over fifty years and quite honestly, it was the most difficult thing I...
Find a great home inspector. A home inspection can save you thousands if they find problems. You can choose to negotiate on the price or walk away if the issues are more than you want to deal with.
Forced exercise is not recommended in a dog who is not physically mature. Jogging, biking, etc. are considered forced exercise. This type of activity should wait until the dog is over 18/24 months.
In my area, we recommend that the owner's clean the environment as thoroughly as possible and not bring in another young dog who has not completed puppy as well as adult booster vaccines for a period...
The rain here in Tucson was unbelievable. There were several deaths here (cars swept away), schools closed, homes damaged. We need the rain just not all at once.
Quit wasting water. Donate time, money or both.
Diagnosing vestibular disease does not generally require expensive testing. It is pretty straightforward. We hospitalize/treat this disorder weekly. Some forms can be severe and lengthy, some brief...
