Yes, good advice. I've been trying to adopt the attitude of "Even if I can't help all of them, I can help THIS one in THIS moment." Not so sure...
Yes...and trust me, I'm running over there if I see any blood. Although...bless Toby's little industrious heart, he's just now jumped up on the...
I think he's found a rat nest in the corner of the garden and is now going bonkers trying to dig it up. Ugh!!! I can't deal with him killing rat...
I've only had two now at my house for a longer stay, the others I've picked up and brought back in the same day - just outings for fun and...
Mile-a-minute is definitely just the breed. He's no crazier than any of the others I've seen. Most I've seen have tails, but maybe in different...
It comes from "Bodega" (winery) - they were the ratters that kept the bodegas vermin free. Very much working farm dogs these days.
@snowbunny - geez, you're a tough one. OK, it took like 25 pictures to get a couple non-blurry ones. He won't stop moving!!! You'll just have...
I've become a one-woman rescue dog walker and hostel. Wednesday and Friday it was Martina the Spanish mastiff. For two Saturdays it's been Tigre...
Congratulations! :happyfeet:
Happy Birthday, Tatze - wonderful sweet girl and best guide dog puppy sister!!! :inlove:

Brave woman! But I'm looking forward to hearing about the differences in training. No, I don't think she has any GR. I think she is simply a...
And just to be clear, this was a volunteer stint getting dogs out of the shelter for some fun - I didn't adopt her. Anybody want a REALLY BIG...
Here is the weirdo of a dog who doesn't like treats. I fixed her fresh grilled chicken this morning before picking her up from the shelter. She...
Wow, this sounds great and much better for the dog than the TPLO. This makes sense - a Rottie gait is much different from a Labrador (or any...
True, those dogs were indeed focused. For show Rotties, it's a thing they do during shows for some reason. To me, it feeds into that whole macho...
:eek::eek::eek: Wow, humans can be just horrifying. OK, good behaviour: Picking up your poo. Asking to let your dog greet other dogs, on or...
Good luck - I'm sure he (and you) will do great! :)
Well said! :D I should probably also explain that I heard the word "drive" ad nauseum when looking at Rottweilers this summer. The breeders in...
Yep, I think this is what happens with me and the mastiff crosses, except in the opposite way. I'm a fairly internal, quiet person (except...
