Did she have a current dog with her? We were asked to not bring our dog (we didn't have one) and to make an appt. but we were allowed to handle...
My sister's dog had that and was on only antibiotics, as a precaution. Sis's Vet told her it typically lasts a month or more and BOOM, bang on a...
Parents not tested for eyes, heart, CNM and EIC? Some of those ARE genetic and there's a gene test. There is no gene test for hip or elbow...
The singles I know are all women, three of them, no spouse, no kids. They have parents or neighbours who help them a lot. Two of these work full...
If the breeder is studding a silver male then some here (U.S. and Canada) would consider that to be a disreputable breeder. Besides researching...
Not so easily done, I find. Oban will alert if another intact male has walked down a trail ahead of us. So I can be prepared to meet him, make...
I agree with your BH that when dogs get loose they tend to go to the places you walk them. Very few dogs learn to be "street smart." No matter...
My gosh, good thing you are young, that heart in your mouth (or sometimes it goes to your stomach) isn't good for a person's health. Glad all is...
I know it's not always possible to have lots of space when you are entering or exiting a class or at a trial. For some reason we never have had a...
Keep an eye out. As if you wouldn't. What are the Parvo cases like around you? Older and completely vaccinated dogs can get it, my puppy did....
I say go for it, it will do you both good. An option I like is not another dog but a cat. A kitten would probably entertain Sam. There's even a...
Being "beaten up" by less nice neutered males is also a distinct risk. In fact my intact boy got his worst beating from a neutered male. A...
LOL, I think dogs who Don't roll around like that are strange. I see he has a harness on, maybe it rubs some hair the wrong way. Maybe it...
I remember your first thread, this is terrible. I agree, I think you need legal advice and to start documenting every time this happens. So...
@Karen mentionned change of seasons. I get migraines more frequently in spring and fall when the weather is up and down and barometric pressure...
No, DNA can't tell you that. DNA testing can, and has even on known purebreds, come up with other dog breeds. That's because so many breeds had...
Does the rescue agency have any input? I'm surprised she wasn't already spayed, rescues often do, here. Or they have some kind of rebate if you...
LOL, my Vet has a fox red Lab. I was lucky to catch puppy visiting the clinic when they first got him and I exclaimed, "Oh, he's a fox red."...
It will sound counter intuitive but can you try a much, much bigger crate or none at all? She may have learned to poop in the crate and not being...
True, but the breeders lie when they register, calling the dog a chocolate. Then when they advertise they call it silver.
