I think I should update Coopers Pic, since she is nearly 4 now. She doesn't pose well since she is usually asleep or in motion.
I tried CBD for my own shoulder pain (partial rotator cuff tear) at night, and found it did not do much, unless it was combined with THC. NSAIDS...
I don't think it makes a lot of difference, and the actual temperament is usually not that obvious in a 7 week old pup. That said, some are...
In the US, almost all Lab breeders remove the dew claws when the pups are tiny. Supposed to prevent injury when running in brush, and since all...
We started letting our pups wade in creek when they were 8 or 10 weeks old. The first time Tilly went to a lake, she did not jump in immediately...
She looks like the Black version of Cooper, with the forward ears and thinner nose. Personally what I think Labs should look like.
looks like a Lab to me.
Subaru Outbacks and Foresters aren't too high. We always trained our dogs to put their paws up and then we could lift their butt into the Car....
Could you try a doggie pen instead of a crate. We used a pen in the kitchen for both Tilly and Cooper when they were to young to let loose in the...
Once they get used to it, they, (or at least ours), are quite happy to go in the snow. They also love running in snow.
They aren't as hard as sterile bones or especially sheds. None of our Labs have ever had dental problems from nylabones. I think they help keep...
Mostly, don't leave anything on the counters. Our old arthritic Lab, Tilly, counter surfs, while Cooper who is so tall she can see what is on...
It is a Chucker. There are some other brands that don't work quite as well. Some dogs chew up tennis balls and some don't. Ours mostly just...
+1 for Nylabones. We also use sterile bones and rawhide rolls or knots. Both of our labs think rawhide is food and eat them fairly quickly. It...
Cooper is opposed to skateboarders also, or anyone who looks (to her) like a skater. I have no idea why, but I am going to try to introduce her...
I picked up a slightly used SEBO D4 yesterday. It is amazing. If Porsche built vacuums, this would be it. All of the accessories are really...
The vet should have been able to rule in/out diabetes pretty easily. It bothers me a little that he suggested that as a possibility. We had a...
Cooper drinks a lot more than a quart of water a day, though she is full grown, and quite big at 24", 75#. When she goes on a walk she marks like...
At home we don't worry about the spillage, and normally have two large water bowls down. At our cabin where the floor is a snap together LVT I...
I don't think you have to worry about them just going out and coming back in. I had some friends that did a dog sled trip in Alaska, and their...
