Not sure if you're in the US or what availability you have there, but I got PetSafe SureFit harnesses on Amazon. Simple roman-style, and you can...
Thanks. Will try this. I have done this while she's crated, and she usually cries when I leave the room and stops when I get back. But I haven't...
I am so sorry! That is a lot, so stressful. Hope things turn around very soon! xoxo
Okay, something I haven't tried!!! Yes!!! Thank you. So, to be clear - you pop them in the crate with a kong, do something in the house, leave...
Thanks @selina27 - yes, tried covering the whole thing, doesn't seem to matter. Today she did fine for about an hour while I was in the house...
@snowbunny - found this youtube of the LAT game: [MEDIA]
Well, every single morning someone comes to pick up my son, and stays for about 20 minutes. Every afternoon they come back and stay for about an...
Thanks, Fiona. All great advice and I will read this through again and begin to implement the training. Sorry for the information overwhelm, just...
I've always liked the name Bessie, despite the cow association (at least here in the US!). I love Bessie Smith, the blues singer. I even wanted to...
(Sorry, this is epic!) Burke is 7yo. I previously thought of him as a "very dominant" dog, but really, he's just always been high energy, bouncy,...
Really glad to hear that, @snowbunny! Right now they're both happily munching on Kongs side-by-side and I'm having one of those heartwarming...
Ah, I had considered a second dog for several years but life circumstances weren't right. Just got Bessie a couple of months ago. Burke is a VERY...
So, Bessie is 4 months old. I have always had a really hard time with her being crated. I never did it at night because my bedroom is too small...
She is sooooooo cute!
With Burke, I found a local breeder and we went and visited the litter a couple of times. He was the last boy left, and we had an older female who...
Very similar here! How old is Stanley again? Bessie is just four months. She does settle after her evening crazies, but from around 6-8pm she's a...
And thank you everyone else for the welcomes! I thought I'd replied earlier; oops!
Nice! I was lucky to find a 24" and a 36" together from a neighbor for cheap. She outgrew the 24" just last week (at 16 weeks old, 27 lb or so). I...
Thanks @Dexter ! Her coat is indeed super shiny and always has been. She's downright glossy!
Bessie's right around four months and we're having a resurgence of crocopup. She was really good after about 10 weeks of age, and now it seems to...
