Jenny is about 57#s at 10 months, and her weight seems to have stabilized. She is about 21" at the withers and is extremely athletic. Cooper was...
We have the same problem with Jenny. We think she is part woodchuck. All of our dogs have chewed up sticks, but Jenny is the worst at it. We...
Is this TPLO surgery?
We are going through this with Jenny right now. She just started her first heat, and is scheduled for her spay in April.
I have a somewhat similar issue with Jenny. At home we have a dog door so she can, and does, go out when she needs to, on her own. At our cabin...
Our previous Lab, Cooper, became spooked by a power gate in our HOA. She did not want to go past it leaving our HOA, though she would come back...
Does a Pet Barrier like Travall (made in the UK count)?? Do you need a crate in addition in the UK?
Our hearts are broken. This morning after some serious tennis ball retrieving Cooper came into our Cabin for breakfast. As I was scooping it...
Our first Lab, Ginger, became diabetic at 12 and lived to be 16. She got two shots a day, and we did blood sugar checks to keep her pretty well...
I have a friend who lost a young Lab this way a few years ago. They never knew exactly why.
It has been years, but I don't think Ginger's Laryngeal Paralysis incision went through the outside of her neck. I think it was all done inside...
Originally from Kingsport. Years ago my Malamute was a mostly outside dog, but in the past 30 years all of our Labs have slept inside, usually in...
You pretty much described Cooper. She will chase tennis balls all day until she drops. We do it on pavement to keep her nails down, because she...
Field style labs tend to have narrower and longer noses than Bench Labs. You can sort of see it in Coopers picture in my avatar.
Our first Lab, Ginger, had this surgery at 14. Initially, I was reluctant to put her through it at that age, especially since she was diabetic,...
You might try one of the hypo allergenic dog foods and if that helps, try some different ones to figure out what her triggers are. Our second lab...
Our Labs have all been "indoor" dogs. They have a doggy door to the back yard, but normally prefer to be in the house with us. We buy our...
I think tennis balls and a lake or stream are the best way to get a Lab in the water. Cooper gets a bath every couple of years whether she needs...
We didn't use a cone on Cooper when she was spayed. We watched her, and she didn't seem to have any inclination to lick the wound, so we left it...
I was going to suggest de-crating. IMHO they don't need to be crated, once they can be trusted not to destroy things. We also have a dog door,...
