It is. Really frightening. I am afraid she could have been strangled if I hadn't seen. :( No more collars for them. The more I think about what...
Also she has been huffing and coughing a bit. :(Going to monitor and call the vet in a couple of hours if it doesn't go away. My poor baby!
I'm seriously considering it! I just worry if they run off, though they are microchipped. (Until spring thaw when I can get fencing put up, Burke...
I bought an inexpensive PetSafe SureFit harness on Amazon - it was $10 (some of them are $20, but the size/color I wanted was less expensive)....
Lovely pups! It took Burke a while to warm up...and even in the past month or two, he lets her snuggle right up next to him, which was verboten at...
This is one part therapy, one part warning! My 7yo labradoodle and 7 month old Bessie were outside playing - they have a spot where they like to...
Sorry for writing a book! But I have more. Ha. I didn't bond with her right away either. I was pretty sure I got the wrong dog for a few weeks and...
Bessie's my first new puppy in 7 years. Before that, I had two. I was 21 when I got Dana, and she was my boyfriend's as much as mine, and we spent...
I'd take him out to pee right before bed; that's what I do with my dogs. So at 10, take him out again. That will help him go longer and he should...
Did you try trading him for a toy? Take your fingers out and put a toy in his mouth instead. Just redirect him to biting a toy instead of...
Welcome to Hachi! He is so cute. I bet you will see more and more activity as he gets comfortable and settles in. What did the vet say about the...
Good point; it isn't a great behavior to encourage! I keep it out of our regular rotation and knock wood, so far no problem.
Good luck! I'm sure you can get him to do it. Definitely avoid cuing until behavior is solid for any behavior, not just recall. That was the...
Ugh! B keeps peeing on the rugs whenever I put them back down, especially the runner by the door. So frustrating. I have another runner down that...
Bessie did learn from Burke! She didn't understand "shake" until she saw him do it. I watched her watch him, then could practically see her put 2...
Congratulations! She is sooooooo adorable!
Ahhhh, you got the new puppy! I haven't been around for a while. She is so cute!
Perfect! I haven't been here in a while, was just catching up, and was going to suggest going really, really slowly. I also find doing it after...
@Teller's mom - those are hilarious! I don't know how you stay calm enough to snap the pics before rescuing them. My lab/poodle has a very soft...
Oh except she's a relentless counter surfer bc she's now scored a few times. Ugh. And she's chewed up two pairs of my glasses when I was in the...
