Murph has always had his own yard. We watch out for mushrooms around here. There are some plants to be careful of but you are in a very...
I never know what to write.....it saddens me to hear of your losses. They occupy such a huge space in our lives, we are lucky to have them with...
Happy Birthday Annie!!!! She is absolutely gorgeous, great pictures, thanks for posting them.
Oh, one other thing, there is no point in scolding a dog for having an accident IMHO. I have seen people lecturing their puppy about an accident....
It is called the Easy Walk, it is sold here in the US by Pet Smart. I think what makes it work so well is that the front ring can slide from side...
Truer words never spoken!!! Murphy loves his treats, no doubt. Try to get him to do anything FOR a treat? Forget it, he develops severe hearing...
Ok, I don't want to upset anyone here so please do not read into my remarks, please! Is the goal to get the dog to walk on the leash and that is...
You wrote that he had accidents in the house. I presume that is outside of his pen? Puppies are notorious for "accidents" when they are out and...
Emily, thanks for the reply. It is the second scenario that I was asking about and you pretty much confirmed my suspicions about where they come...
That site is nothing more than a bogus enterprise to collect money. There is no "registration" of service dogs in the US. They "register" them...
Amen to that (masking pain)! They are real good at it. Murphy somehow broke his toe when he was about 4 months old. Most of the time it was not...
Thanks for those replies, but it still does not answer my question about where all the mixed breed dogs are coming from. I realize this is a...
Maybe I am naive, but I really wonder where all these "rescue dogs" come from? There seem to be so many "mixed breed" types. I don't see dogs...
Great! Glad you posted this. I was beginning to think we had the only labrador on the planet that does this sort of stuff after reading so many...
Our experience was similar to Samantha's above. He only went in his crate during the daytime if he felt like it. Which he did quite a bit. At...
Ok, I do not mean to be rude here but am I missing something? The OP has stated she has epilepsy and that she needs a service dog. From what I...
Sometimes the crazies get out of hand, witness the great state of CA, USA! They just passed a law that forces pet shops to only sell rescue dogs....
"I like to let him in at night time" Does that mean he is outside the rest of the time? If so, what do you expect him to do? He wants some...
Just love it! They do a lot of that if you let them. Figure it out all on their own.
I guess I took a different spin on the matter of getting a puppy. My wife was traveling at least 4 nights a week, sometimes 5 when Murphy picked...
