Chip and Betsy were both TERRIBLE in puppy class. Betsy, my dachshund mix, had to be put in time out at least three times per class. She would bark, lunge, etc with the other puppies. She was so bad...

Signed up for a six month subscription to Bark Box. Once I heard that they had an allergy box, I signed up. Now, I don't have to sift through Petsmart or the grocery store treat aisles for the rare...
Terrifying! And totally relatable. Yesterday, I "lost" my older dog, Betsy. She is a dachshund mix and she has inherited their tendency to "follow their nose". I lost her for a few minutes in a...
I thought Chip was the only one who loves to search for tennis balls at parks! He always finds one at the two parks we go to the most. One is near a tennis court so he is sure to find the strays...
I hope you come back and read the advice given to you here. Lab puppies are CHALLENGING. They are rowdy, energetic, and very intelligent. If they don't have outlets for their physical and mental...
SOO cute! Thanks for sharing!
Chip wears an EZ walk harness when we go out. He is pretty good on leash for me but it does give me the advantage that if he is extremely distracted by something, I can turn him to look at me...
He looks so proud of himself next to his birds! What a good boy. :)
Chip just had surgery on Friday to remove a small mass from his face, which is why he is wearing his e-collar in this photo. (Excuse the dirt on the collar, we just went for a potty break and he got...

Fun thread!
Well the difficulty there is that we live in the desert, we have very few parks with soft grass. I try to be very careful to throw the ball in a way that will not make him slide but he does it when...
Same here! Although we have no dishwasher. I was the dog bowls with very hot, soapy water every evening and their kongs too.
Oh no, I am so sorry for your loss. Surgery complications are so scary. :(
I am thinking maybe the dirt area was harder than I thought. And of course, Chip goes FULL FORCE when he plays fetch because um....TENNIS BALL! :)
Chip tore his pads yesterday at the park. We were playing fetch and at one point he limped back towards me. When I checked his feet, both front paws were scraped up and bleeding. We slowly made our...
Dont shoot the dog is GREAT. I just finished Pryor's other book, "Reaching the Animal a mind" and that one was super informational and fun to read too.
Oh man, I would be scared too! I am excited to try training our chicken ladies. I saw some videos on Youtube of chicken agility courses, those chickens (and humans that trained them) were pretty...
They are SO cute,especially that polite kitty. If you get around to training the chickens, you will have to post tips. I am dying to try it with our chicken ladies. :) It's a dream of mine to...
Hahaha, I call her his "little big sister" too! :)
I am a firm believer in clicker training. All of my dogs have been taught new behaviors and tricks using a clicker. After reading Karen Pryor's book "Reaching the Animal Mind" I have been intrigued...
This is perfect! Thanks for sharing!
I just made these tonight but instead of wheat flour I used oat flour that I made myself. The pups LOVED them, even the picky little dog. :)
So cute!!!
Tyson'sMommy :-)
Thanks. She has struggled with back pain and hip pain for the past couple years (bad dachshund genes I guess.) She was in pain so we went into the vets office and apparently she has neck pain this...
