Have to disagree with you there. It might not be easy, but it certainly is very possible to run agility successfully with one of the wild maniac, hyper, ready to explode retrievers. I am running one,...

Have to disagree with you there. It might not be easy, but it certainly is very possible to run agility successfully with one of the wild maniac, hyper, ready to explode retrievers. I am running one,...
I have one, it is a couple years old and still in great shape, the color has not faded at all. I am planning on buying some more for my other dogs
prey model raw diet!
Currently 8 dogs - 5 Tollers, 1 Chessie, 1 Lab, 1 Jack Russell Terrorist!
I use the TT Junior Receiver on my Toller girls, it is very small and light. Although not rechargeable, I have found the battery to last a long time, I change it maybe twice a year at the most
Definitely NOT true as far as Optigen goes. I have a number of Optigen-tested pups showing up on OFA, that do not have other records on OFA. I did run into another problem though, and that was OFA...
I have a bunch of the Cabelas bumpers, they are definitely soft/pliable, but I have found they are also really slippery and the dogs have a harder time keeping a good hold on them compared to every...
I have a Kimar, it was pretty cheap and so far it has held up well. Mine is about 3 yrs old. I don't use mine as much as many of you though. When the Kimar dies I plan on replacing it with a GunX
My life almost entirely revolves around dogs. I am a dog groomer, and for hobbies I mainly do flyball, agility, rally, obedience, dockdogs, some conformation, disc dog, hunting, and just starting to...
Definitely you need to count 63 days from ovulation, not from day of breeding. I have had quite a high percentage of litters that have been born 58-59 days after first breeding date! If you are not...
As several others have mentioned, an x-pen is a wonderful thing for pups! I have a 12 wk pup right now. When I am not home or while I am sleeping, she is crated. She is only loose in the house if we...
Not a problem with Line-X. My ex-hubby works for Line-x, so I had all sorts of dog equipment sprayed, even whelping boxes. Within 24 hrs of spraying there was no odor at all.
I have found that to be true with my very high octane Chessie! On an average day, he gets a small breakfast, and the bulk of his meal in the late evening. On days he is competing or training heavily,...
Here is my favorite Fox Reds (hey, you didn't specify they had to be Labs!;-) )

Ouch! At my repro vet, hips/elbows and a blood draw runs about $200 if the dog cooperates and they don't sedate. (With sedation, about another $100). That is not including OFA fees or costs for...
I have retrievers and parrots. Only 1 of my 6 dogs is ever allowed around the birds when they are out of their cages, she is my oldest and knows the birds are mine and are to be ignored. The rest are...
I definitely believe there is a genetic component to allergies. I personally will not breed a dog will allergy issues. Having owned a golden with horrific allergies, nobody or their dog should have...
Revolution doesn't wash off, it actually penetrates the skin and enters the bloodstream! So although it is applied topically, it is not the same kind of topical treatment as Frontline (that stays...
I've been using Pupcolors http://www.pupcolors.com for a few years, they are awesome! I put them on within a few minutes of birth, and they adjust to fit right up until the pups leave to their new...
A dog with limited AKC registration is not eligible for CKC registration
Treated lumber is very poisonous and retrievers tend to chew wood, so not a good combination!
I would think you'd want to order your blonde extra hot?
These do work, it is a bit tedious but it will do the job. I actually bought mine pre-made from Midwoof http://www.midwoof.com/store/lactation/mother-39-s-milk/breast-pump-for-canines/prod_94.html ...
I have both the Sport Combo and the Sport Basic. I prefer the Combo (but my ex found it too confusing, he liked the Basic better)
I did my part in treating "black dog syndrome" 2 weeks ago, and adopted Lady. She is close to 14 yrs old, given up by her owner who was in her mid-90's as she physically could not care for her any...
