Good to hear you are getting around now. When I was still on crutches, I really liked having a small bag that attached to my crutch. When you...
No more crutches or cane. I finish Physical Therapy next week, but I still have exercises to do for strength building. I think I could ski easy...
Have you considered almost always throwing the ball for Quinn, so she does not have to go to other people and does not expect you to take the ball...
DebzC How is your rehab going?
Cooper and Tilly both have double coats, but Coopers guard coat is much coarser and longer than Tilly's. Tilly still does fine in the cold. I...
Ours spend a lot of time in the snow, though it is probably not as cold as Wisconsin. I think as long as they are moving they will be fine....
If the new dog is cat friendly why not just let him sleep on a dog bed in your room? I think moving your old dog downstairs would be pretty...
Consider introducing them on neutral ground, so your boy won't see his home being invaded when they first meet. We often have other dogs in our...
I think we switched Cooper at about 12 months. She had pretty much quit growing, and it made is simpler to only have one kind of dog food (for a...
Be aware that the size of a pup even at 7 or 8 weeks is not a reliable indicator of their final size. Cooper was quite small at 7 weeks. We did...
They missed the other coat feature, being able to jump into a pool of clear water and come out muddy. It is a miracle, and of course with...
I think two dogs is really optimum. Our two girls get along fine together. Tilly, our 11 yr old gets a lot more exercise because of Cooper. I...
I've been a Ski Patroller for 44 years so it seemed appropriate. I'm an engineer in my day job, but patrolling is a more fun.
Sounds like normal young dog play.
The dogs were home (99%) here, but we were a couple hours away in 100% territory, so we could not watch them. They did not seem at all upset...
We let them in other parts of the house by 10 week, as long as they were closely supervised. At 3 months we had to give Cooper the run of the...
I wonder why some dogs do this and some don't. None of my 3 Labs or my Malamute ever ate poo, and it is not something we trained out of them,...
Xrays went well, and I am using a Cane for long walks, primarily to improve my gait and not limp. I can walk around with no cane when I need...
Wagging tails do not always translate to friendly in dog language. Can mean excited, unsure or alert. In my experience, hackles up is usually...
I didn't neuter my one male dog, and it never seemed to cause a problem. Don't expect neutering to stop mounting behavior, since many neutered...
