Yea, but they are Black Bears, not Brown Bears. The poo is not full of little silver bear bells and doesn't smell like pepper. We do have to...
Sometimes putting a cover over most of the crate so it is darker like a den helps. Full disclosure: I've never crated a dog after the first 6...
Cooper and Tilly both were crated in the bed room when they were pups. They always woke us up if they needed to go out, even at 7 weeks. The...
I live in the part of the country where "if you don't own a firearm, they will issue one", but no way I'm going to carry something big enough to...
Cold Tail: Two of our girls have had it at one time or another. I don't think it has to be really cold water, just a lot of swimming. I've...
I don't use one now, but I concur, that if you use one, get the model with the tape, not the cord. I got a nasty rope burn behind my knee from...
We do use Heart Guard, even though Heartworm is not common here. I figure I can always start treating for fleas and ticks if I need to, but with...
I'm curious, how many of you don't treat for fleas? We normally do not do any flea treatment, and our dogs never seem to have fleas. Both our...
We give Tilly and Cooper rawhide chews, both the rolls and knotted ones. They go through them fairly quickly if they are bored. We tried the...
When we take our dogs to our favorite off leash area and throw balls or Frisbees, Tilly will play for a while and then make a bee-line for the...
I think where you are, I would consider Bear Spray.;). One fellow who walks several Dachshunds through our neighborhood carries a cane, but I'm...
"DOGS HAVE FAMILY, CATS HAVE STAFF" After seeing our two wrestling on our bed this morning, I'm sure they have no concept of MASTER.
Thanks for doing this. I've never fostered a dog, mostly because I don't believe I could give one up after living with him/her. (Unless they...
Tilly barks at things she hears or smells on the street in front of our house. She will stop as soon as some one acknowledges that there is some...
As near as I can see, Labs shed 2x per year, each one lasts 6 months. I keep expecting to find a bald dog some day, but it never happens.
I think you should do some serious research on dog breeds and how they fit what you want/expect. Huskies and Labs are so different that the...
Opps no edit button:(. Both of them always have good breath also. I should know, I get licked often enough:).
We don't clean Tilly's teeth and don't plan to do Cooper's. Every time the vet looks at them they look great. They both chew on things all the...
Tilly is 10 and has slowed down quite a bit. She will still walk as far as we do no problem, but she seldom runs very far or fast. Our first...
We had to run some errands today, and the dogs insisted on going for a ride. I guess 4000 miles was not enough for them.
