Good grief - the evening wasn't over after all. I was settling in for a movie and a cuddle and noticed FLEAS on poor Toby's belly. He's got a...
Yes, I agree - for adult dogs I'd say it takes a good 3-4 weeks before you start seeing the "real" dog. The affectionate yet feisty scaredy-cat...
I just got a message from my rescue contact for Toby that the group in the UK has a potential family for him who sounds really good - everyone...
It's been a wild couple days with SeƱor Toby. I've had to realise that progress is incremental and not always linear, if that makes sense....
It would be impossible to be 100% equitable 100% of the time, plus all pups would be lucky to have a doggie mum like you! Shadow knows his...
It's been eons since I registered my first and only AKC dog in the States, but I do remember choosing the name myself. The first part was the...
As I mentioned in another post, I'm really giving this a lot of thought as I gear up for my next puppy. For my dog Brogan, I was very overweight...
Hey, maybe Stanley and Toby DO have more in common than I would have thought! Except Toby can't be bothered with the "sorry eyes" business. His...

Oh please.... MERCY, MERCY!!! :confused: Just kidding - if I've done my job in the morning, he's usually pretty darn good in the evening. I...
Ohhh Jen, beware what you wish for! Toby's rescue group is at this moment trying to work with a UK group to get him into a foster home there....
Just now I heard a pop, a horrible screech and all the lights in the house went out. Toby was somewhere around the electrical outlet near the...
A friend of mine in Germany does this and he and the dogs love it. Both he and his dogs have crazy amounts of energy so it's a good fit. The...
First thought: "Wait, they got another dog? Some kind of special cocker spaniel?" Second thought: "Ohhhh, she's talking about weeing!!!"...
I'm a big fan of the paws up and then lift the backside the rest of the way as mentioned by @Boogie . However, another idea for you. When you...
Wow, so sorry you and Mollie had this scare. More for you than Mollie as she's probably forgotten already and is ready to go again. I'm so...
Toby was a perfect angel overnight. Kept himself glued to my side but no scratching, biting or (most importantly) humping my face. I'm so proud...
