I am with you and understand about how they have different foods available and not letting good dog food go to waste when it could be donated and help a dog in need. Sadly, When I went with the Purina I chose very poorly from their product line and did not due my homework first OR bother to...

Not at all a 'fair' thing to say. It depends on the particular Vet and their experience level with cropping and posting. I would guess that if you had a Vet do your crop that 'sucked with posting' then perhaps you did not do your homework on them before letting them crop your dogs ears? I...

Over the years I have had 3 different Vets do crops for me and all of the different clinics had a different approach to posting. I am not going to call any of them idiots for their particular methods as (over time) I kind of figured out WHY they had particular reasons for doing things the way...

Can tell by the pictures of the coops that you are correct for 'most' of the people posting here. They are spending BIG money for some 'free' eggs. Big $$$ on coops, big $$$ on fancy birds, big $$$ on feed most likely. Yeah, the majority are paying ten times more for those 'free' eggs AND they...

That settles it then. I am sending them to YOUR house for dinner! :) You definitely got it going on better than we do here!!! :)

If your dogs value grass more than chicken - Something is wrong with them! :)

I would have to be cautious with my current girls due to how many ducks they got fed as puppies. (had multiple duck hunting friends giving me multiple garbage bags full of decks every season) They know darn well what lies under the feather bags and how tasty duck feet and assorted duck bits...

I get a smile too when I see them doing stuff like that. :) This particular pair bonded a lot tighter than the pair before them. Still have distinct personalities and different strengths / weaknesses just like the last pair but they are definitely more clingy towards each other. I am ok...

THAT ONE won the day for me! :) OMG! Best smile I have had all day long!!! :) My face hurts now thanks to you! :)

Think about chicken security while you are doing your planning. I thought at first that I had no chicken eating predator animals around here last time but slowly learned that yeah, we do. I just didn't 'know' what sort of stuff was out there lurking because I didn't have chickens out there yet...

I got to did through some old pictures and see if I can find some of the last chicken tractor I built / had. It is nice being able to drive them around the yard to a different spot as needed / wanted! :)

I honestly thought I left enough of that picture uncropped so that people could see that was at best a 16" jump! :) Poor Dystopia would not even consider trying anything more than 2 or 3 feet high due to her weight. :( We are working on the weight stuff though and WILL be getting to where they...

A heaping table spoon of canned pumpkin added to the kibble will keep things firm while making the transition. :)

May be hard to tell thanks to my crappy camera skills but this has got to be at least a 4 foot jump, pretty much straight up with no running start. :) :) Not really content with that so - Baby steps till we get to 5 foot jumps! :)

If you GAVE me a bag of Purina for FREE - I would not even donate the leftovers to a shelter before getting rid of it. Even shelter dogs deserve better than that. The extra money that I was spending on Vet bills back when I was feeding Purina to my girls was a LOT more than the tiny bit extra...

That is correct and not at all an uncommon suggestion. Your Vet is trying to help you make darn sure your Doberman is protected against Parvo. It could also very well be that your particular Vet has noticed an uptick of Parvo cases in YOUR particular area. Had a Vet / breeder of mine explain...

One of mine used to 'occasionally' get that same look on her neck back when I was feeding the Purina stuff. (corn garbage) The coat around the neck looked just like that picture just not 'all' of the time. It came and went. Since the food change I have not seen any sort of skin issues like...

I swear the members here are almost as good as the pictures! I can't hang out here for very long and not get a smile! :)

What do you feed her?

Ravenbird nailed it when she mentioned young dogs and testing and about that stuff usually not showing up. In my opinion, pretty much every doggie medical fact that she shared was spot on. Was pretty clear to me that she did her homework! :) Have much respect for both of you and everything you...
