Good advice on birds and on teeth - that can be a big issue and you surely don't want the dog to associate retrieving with discomfort. Puppies don't know what teething is, they just know their mouth...

Good advice on birds and on teeth - that can be a big issue and you surely don't want the dog to associate retrieving with discomfort. Puppies don't know what teething is, they just know their mouth...
Sent you a PM.
Excellent points. Corey nails it, especially with the comment about your dreams for the dog: it's hard to let those go. My severely EIC affected dog to this day has the best nose of the pack, and had...
I agree completely with Kim and Jeff/labsforme. And I have multiple first hand experiences with EIC affecteds. Yes we need to be vigilant and protect these driven dogs from themselves. While some...
I love Kathryn Tate's "Send Lawyers Guns and Money", call name Trigger. I chuckle every time I see it.
Also always liked Tim/Tami Thompson's "Mitimat You Go Girl", call name Diva. And she is!
I cant even begin to express how deeply sorry I am, how tragic this is, and how I appreciate the fact that you toughed it out and posted this - we're all better off because of your warning. That's...
This was Wolverine, not FR
And congrats to you Mike for the 2nd place........... and thanks for working so hard managing much of the stake - safe journey home...
Contact Sharon Gierman or Mary McGinnis - they were the chair/secretary for the trial and may still have some of the programs left. Their contact info will be in the Midwest premium availabe on Entry...
Dear Breck, I never met Darla but surely wish I had, and regret that I didn't have the chance. Since I've had the joy of having Weezer in my life for the last several years, I would have truly...
I'm so glad you included the photos to go along with that lovely tribute - she indeed looked like a grand girl. I'm sorry for your loss. The two of you both won when you found each other.
I have struggled mightily to come up with my paean to Gavel. Where to start? He was such a wonderful animal in so many ways. But if ever a dog truly had a sense of humor, it was Gavel. I was brand...
I'm all for local, but also have a big respect for labmed.org Donations used to provide medical care and treatment for adoptable labs/lab-mixes to enable them to be placed. Rescues, abandoned,...
Your mother was clearly a blessing, and was blessed herself. A life well-lived is a life well-loved. My condolences.
Thanks Carol and Kim! I'm thrilled he's starting the season so well after having been down and out for much of last summer and fall from the virus illness and bone abscess break. He's the...
I've been offline for a while, just came across this. I can't come close to imagining how a human being worth being regarded as human could do this. I hope I never find out the identity.
I would...
I love that big yella dog of Carl's and tell him to put him on my truck every time I see him....way to go George and Carl!
Wow, great day for Dave Ward and so well deserved...and I'm especially delighted for Elly - wahoo!
Ditto what Susan said - I buy the same Schiff product here at Costco.
Sharon, what a wonderful tribute, thanks for sharing "His Russell-ness" with us lesser mortals, as I'm sure he regarded us!
You and he had quite a life together, 19 years is testimonial to not...
It sounds like you have a puppy being a puppy. They have the attention span of a gnat at that age. And please don't be dissuaded by posts that state "my 8 week old is retrieving 150 yard marks"....
I feed PPP to the dogs in training for the simple reason that the pros they go to use that. Switching back and forth does more harm than good IMHO. The dogs do well on it, only criticism is that - in...
Beautiful beautiful craftsmanship, even more beautiful gesture. Like I said earlier, Gooser you're a gem.
(I dread the day that I need to place an order....but you'll be the place I go to when...
Thanks for sending it to me too Alain, tres bon!
To say this makes me sick is a vast understatement. As I told someone else, very little brings out my inner vigilante...but this would qualify. I'm so sorry for Boz's family and also add my voice to...
