    Weight loss and food

    Corn is a banned substance in this home and always will be. Learned about those doggie allergies the hard way and will never do it again. (with the exception of On The Border tortilla chips which I keep out of reach of any doggies - life would not be worth living without Panchos cheese dip and...

    Weight loss and food

    Will never come a day when I get on a treadmill. Heck no! :) I am literally that guy that the chinese 'all you can eat' buffet people run off because he ate too much of their food - and still didn't / can't gain any weight! :) Same weight now that I was a 'few' decades ago and it aint a lot...

    Weight loss and food

    Appreciate those words of caution. I don't need or want any torn ligaments any time soon. Very good point you made there for sure. I read that comment and instantly said to myself 'That nice lady may have just saved me a PILE of misfortune and pain'. I was recently gifted a hand me down (but...

    Weight loss and food

    I could appreciate all of that work and effort more but for the actual treadmill in the pictures right next to it. (my butt would be using the actual people treadmill first) :) (that member is clearly talented)

    Weight loss and food

    Very much appreciate that info there! At least now I can actually KNOW what the cal content on those jokers are!! (counting that stuff best I can) Also much appreciate the info on the salt cause when possible I try to avoid stuff that has that added in there as well (they don't NEED more)...

    Freyja with bloody diarrhea x 8days

    Canned pumpkin? Less food switching or less sudden changes in the food switching?

    When you think you have them trained how to act around distractions and then -

    No pig chasing. Sorry. :( LOL! Granted that street between us is not a very busy one but streets (and cars) still scare the mess out of me. Girls pretty much know that if a paw touches that pavement they got a big problem. Took a long to get them there (leashes are awesome!) but they did...

    Random Pet Photo of the Day - 2023

    That lift table is neat. :) One of my Vets one time asked his assistant to pick up one of my girls and put her on the exam table. Poor girl was likely barely over a hundred lbs herself and Vet guy just asked her to pick up chunk! :) Chunk being darn near a hundred lbs of dog! Had the girl...

    Weight loss and food

    I actually broke out a real kitchen measuring cup last night and double checked how much the kibble scoop dispenses just to make sure. They get just a tiny, tiny bit over 3 cups measured (not enough over to call it 3 1/4 cups) once per day and not really much of anything for treats in-between...

    Weight loss and food

    Went to a different Vet to weigh the girls today and - They finally get a treat with their kibble. :) Granted that this was a different scale at a different Vet but... :) I weighed them myself and made SURE to hit the zero button first each time so pretty sure that because I got a lower...

    Freyja with bloody diarrhea x 8days

    Sending more prayers your way for a continued and speedy recovery. Really hoping you have the worst of this behind you and are on the downhill on the way back to 100% good health. Your dog is definitely lucky to have an owner like you that pays such attention to detail and works as hard as you...

    Persian 2 year old cat meeting doberman puppy

    Sounds funny but it's not. A fully armed (has all it claws) cat that is in a bad mood can do a lot of damage in the blink of an eye. Even if the dog was not really doing anything but 'getting to close' it only takes one good swipe and you got a bloody nose to deal with (and hopefully not worse)...

    Doberman puppy and baby at the same time

    Me, personally - If I could go back in time I would have got the Doberman much sooner, spent a LOT more time with the dog and a LOT less time making babies. (none at all making babies) Was standing in line somewhere at a checkout one day with both the Dober girls and had another customer...

    Persian 2 year old cat meeting doberman puppy

    I call it DoberSlicing. Where the cat shows no mercy at all on that nose (or noses) and gives not a damn if they leave scars on the offending nose that needed dealing with at the time. :)

    Food suggestions for puppy?

    Takes a lot longer than 12 weeks to get a Doberman 'regular' on their potty stuff. At that young as their bodies grow and change, so will their potty schedules and the consistency of what they put out regardless of if the food remains the same. Food schedules and consistent / regularly timed...

    Persian 2 year old cat meeting doberman puppy

    Cat I had was freakin evil. Tried more than a few times to 'explain' to her that it was not cool to be beating on my girls and it got got me nowhere.

    Two Great Danes kill woman in Pennsylvania

    Absolutely right on both of those comments. :) I lose count of how many times Dobermans have deterred crimes that were 'about to happen' for me simply by being present.

    Two Great Danes kill woman in Pennsylvania

    Not here. You are absolutely not allowed to shoot anything to protect 'property' outside of your actual home. The chickens are one example. Those are considered simple property and you are not allowed to just shoot a trespassing dog that happens to be messing with them. Not apartments (single...

    Two Great Danes kill woman in Pennsylvania

    Would it have been 'acceptable' to you if the stray had been (on my property) trying to eat my chickens? Or tear up my flowerbeds? Serious question and curious. What if I looked out the window and saw a human in the act of breaking into my vehicle? Would it be 'ok' to send the girls out to...
