Cooper sleeps on the bed and sits on the couch with us. Tilly lies on the floor or her dog bed. Ginger was kind of in between. They are all...
Cooper does that, except that she is a lot bigger.
All of our Labs have elbow calluses. They don't seem to matter. I actually thought they were expected.
My Malamute never really liked kibble, but he would eat it since there was no alternative. He was a free feeder, and sort of condescended to...
Did he eat the whole stick in one piece, or did he chew it into pieces? We use rawhide rolls occasionally but our dogs chew them up in to smaller...
Both of mine do better in water, though they will usually retrieve on land also. Big rewards would help, but we have not been serious enough to...
Can you move up to Crutches soon? I find them a lot more flexible than a walker, and you can get around without putting weight on the leg,...
I mentioned this to our vet the last time Cooper was in, because Cooper has forward ears with potentially more air circulation than Tilly with...
We used Blue Wilderness Chicken and Rice Large Breed Puppy. We went to the Chicken and Rice because our other Lab seems to have some food...
I saw a story about a Newfie that was being annoyed by a small dog that was visiting his home. After a while the Newfie picked up the small dog...
Interesting article. While I'm definitely in the Lab camp, my neighbor across the street has a 1-1/2 yr old Labradoodle that they re-homed and...
When we had to go on a trip without the dogs the first time (Cooper was about 3 months) we hired a house sitter to stay at our house with the...
I think Cooper learned a lot of her good behaviors from Tilly.
The Australian Labradoodle is not just a Lab Poodle cross. It is a carefully designed dog with several other breeds in the lineage. If they...
I agree, with cutting out the rawhide and dental sticks for the time being. Chicken and rice seems to be the norm for getting stomach troubles...
Did you see it happen from the beginning? It is possible that the other dog gave off some signals that he was not happy with your pup being that...
I think you can quit crating when you trust your pup outside the crate. We still have Cooper's crate in the kitchen, but have never closed the...
How is your recovery going? I haven't seen anything for a couple of weeks. Are you home now or in a rehab setting?
We have to treat Tilly's ears with an ear cleaner on a fairly regular basis. We get it from the vet, but it may be over the counter also. It is a...
Tilly at 11 seems to have some arthritis, and moves stiffly some times. If she does not walk it off, we will give her 25 or 50 mg of Deramax....
