We used to take our labradoodle in the pool with us, and when he was tired of swimming we'd pull him onto an inflatable lounge/raft and he'd float...
Ha, my 7yo, 75-lb dog pulled me flat to the ground when he took off after a cat. I didn't see the kitty, so I had no idea what was coming!
Ha, so cute! Bessie likes to stand on the couch or a coffee table so she's as big/tall, or bigger, than Burke! She used to be more submissive in...
The clock is a great idea! Bessie's been off and on again with it. She seemed to have settled, but sometimes she's still awful and loud when I...
"Bum-tuck zoomies" is a very apt description! :D
Here's a fun method for making a toy really interesting: https://www.clickerdogs.com/createamotivatingtoy.htm You could definitely try feeding...
Ooh, that's pretty gross, yup!

I'm glad you posted @DebzC - I have been feeling the same way the past couple of days. We've had a bit of regression with house training, and the...
@Darben1976 - looks like they do:...
Try a ball that dispenses kibble! Bessie loves them, chases them all over the house. The Omega Tricky Treat Ball and another, IQ something? She...
Had a hard time finding canned pumpkin at my US supermarket! Because I was looking in "canned vegetables," and it was in the baking section. I've...
Good to hear @Emily! I have noticed more fear - or fear at all - this week. So maybe it is the start of more caution and the closing of the...
Bessie's just about 16 weeks old. I never thought she'd stop howling in her crate. But the past few days, she's been doing really well! She still...
Ohhhh, he is darling!
Thanks. :) Good to know.
