Just wondering if you guys assume a dogs sex from the colour of their collar?
My male dog wears a red collar and my female a blue - but everyone always gets their genders mixed up.

If you're on Facebook join the group BARF DIET CHAT - it has heeeaps of useful documents written on starting out and lots of knowledgeable people on the group. People are always asking questions...
I agree - more exercise. Just as emma_dad said mine is a bit older (8 months) and we do both 45 mins of play in the morning plus an hour walk in the arvo. On top of that we do training every day....
Yeah it was like a private rehoming (instead of just dropping them at the pound). We call it rescuing because we believe we rescued her from her previous owners. When she arrived she was in a choker...
Thanks for all the kind words :)
She's still going great. So different to a lab though - as she is very picky with food and treats (complete opposite to Ajax who would eat anything if available!)....
DH and I rescued the most amazing white shepherd yesterday called Storm! She is gorgeous and Ajax (our lab) is enjoying the company - they are the best of friends already :)
So far, she is...
my pup is 8 months and only on 3.5 cups a day. More than that and he puts on a fair bit of weight - and we want to keep him lean for joint reasons. Obviously if he's looking skinny we give him a bit...
Not sure tbh, The place I buy all my dogs treats sells them and people posted on the facebook page saying their dogs loved them!
oh no!!! Labs can be so destructive!
Cow hooves? I read that they take ages to eat but dogs love them? I personally haven't given them yet but just a suggestion!
Hope she is feeling better soon :)
also this thread might help. I...
One other thing - yesterday I got my pup a new mat for his crate and as he's a bit older and less likely to eat it - we splurged and got a big comfy one for him... well as soon as we put it in the...
I always use kibble for training at home or out for walks as I can easily monitor his weight and it's easy. At obedience school where I need heaps more concentration and the urge to ignore me is...
In Australia many are pushing for the Calgary Model as opposed to banning the breed. Pitbulls are illegal in many states but not Canberra (where I live) and can be removed from your home and put to...
I disagree. I like white tees as I usually wear darker coloured pants (jeans)! Cute idea for a tshirt. Why do you have to wait till some are ordered though? Can't you just get 1 personally designed n...
+ 1 on covering the crate. I always used to cover with a sheet until recently - but I'm thinking of going back to it. In the day the sheet is off but at night I like it on as it signals sleep time....
Can't go past Converse or Vans for me :) Of course I'm also in my runners a large amount of the time - they are just so comfy (and I get to wear them to work)!
Maybe see if your vet has a play group/obedience class that he can go to before his vaccinations are done? Its personal preference but I didn't take my dog out till he was fully vaccinated but we...
Maybe you could see if you can give her to a rescue organisation? I'm not sure about America but in Australia they would most likely take them and rehabilitate them/rehome them (potentially with only...
I read an interesting article today that said Coconut oil will clean all tartar off and is also great for your dogs overall health. One person said they cleaned their dogs teeth with coconut oil and...
I always worry that my lab pup is small when I'm at home but then I see him next to a lab of his own age and don't know what I worry about!!
I use the sense-action or sense-ible easy walk harnesses and they work great. I got it fitted properly at my dog club that we attend and it has been a life saver :) We do train how to walk loose lead...
We occasionally use TastyBones. They obviously aren't like a normal bone but they take AGES to get threw. Our little one eats a good bone in 1/2hr but the tasty bone has lasted about 6 weeks so far...
True. But my friend has a border collie and her next door neighbours have a labrador - the dogs play together all day while their owners are at work - and that is enough for the border collie along...
Looks like awesome fun!!!
I can't wait to start dock diving but there are none around where I live :( Luckily DH is in defence so we will move soon enough!
Mine is a serial stealer! Until recently it was whatever he could find - but he's getting better now and most of the time he only pics up his toys - he is 8 months old! We did 'give' 'leave it' and...
