I send this to my families when they have questions about prong collars,

I also have them have a trainer show them how to use a prong collar properly. The prong collar is essentially 'self...

Regarding the dog taking the treat in such a way that it hurts your hand. I can tell you what an agility trainer (who teaches all positive stuff) told me to do. Put treat in your closed hand. If...

I feel your pain. My dog was very dog aggressive and got herself into some serious altercations. I worked with a behaviorist and it seems to have stuck. If your dog's problem was fixed, and now...

I wonder if a trainer who employs Leslie McDevitt's techniques would help? She wrote her book, "Control Unleashed" specifically for sport dogs who are fearful, reactive or are easily distracted. ...

I wouldn’t get rid of the dog that is making her nervous (assuming there is no aggression involved). Instead, I would make more of an effort to correct the “pushy” behavior. Hormones or no, there...

Did I read this right that you now have 3 dogs? Penelope sounds like a handful :). Could you keep the doodle and Penelope crated and treat the situation like a new dog/dog introduction? If they...

Introducing new dogs is always stressful on the dogs and can result in acting out. Perhaps that's wjat happened here. It may be the right time to go back to 1 dog until everything settles down. We...

Took me a bit to find the plans.

Here are the plans I used for weaves and jumps and pause table base. You need to put a wood top on the pause table. But thats easy enough to build too.

If the hens don't run, it probably won't be an issue. If they get spooked, by the dog or otherwise, that's probably where you'd run into trouble.

I really enjoyed the series Call the Widwife which originally aired on PBS in US.

The Fall (Gillian Anderson) is really good as well. If you like horror movies, Absentia particularly creeped me...

There is a local specialty place for veterinary orthopedic and sports medicine that seems to get referrals from all over. (Veterinary Orthopedic Sports Medicine Group | Annapolis Junction,...

And here's another that your brother would probably agree with:

I've certainly not done any scientific studies but have seen the improvement in Potion, Melody, Bandit and Mardi, all joining us as seniors. Think what discourages a lot of people is it does not...

Well, I have to say that I'm not totally convinced. There's not much evidence that outside of arthritis, glucosamine has much effect. But Kimber likes the glucosamine pills, the rehab vet said she...

We are home from the vet.....he induced vomiting with Apomorphine and Cooper threw everything up, the vet thinks that the worse Cooper will have is some scratches on his esophagus. They gave him an...

From Shelter to K9 Unit: Group Gives Dogs Second Chance and a Duty - ABC News

That is so stinkin' cute!!! I agree with the others, short term, door open, supervised, ok. Anything else, nope.

Clear to see they love each other and the picture is just amazing!

Love the picture, they are so cute.

I agree. I also think they are adorable together. That being said, the pup will soon go through the piranha and then the adolescent "make me" phases. You want the adults to be able to get away rather...

awesome picture!

In open crate situations or a quick gotta lock em up situation, its fine. But they both need to be comfortable in their own crates too.

That's too adorable. Don't have the answer but if you do put in separate crates, put them side by side so they can still be close.

Makes me laugh to think, I've had two seniors tuck inside the...

If I'm at home and can hear what's going on, I let them go in together. Chase isn't big on being that close, so it doesn't last long. If it's overnight or I'm not able to watch them or leaving the...
