    Age limit on purchasing a puppy

    Soooooo many people do not have wills. Either due to cost, the headache or just not wanting to think about their own death. It can get interesting, that's for sure. Even with a will, things can get messy. I couldn't believe all the crap my mom had to go over for her and my step dad's. I'm so...

    Breaking News Update: Dallas City Council Passes Changes to City’s Animal Ordinances

    Shelters and rescues around here will try to do that as well. But they have no laws to back them up, unfortunately most people don't know that.

    Age limit on purchasing a puppy

    This ^^^^ I have honestly lost count of the number of people I've known that died, most often very unexpectedly, under the age of 60. Only a small handful were due to drugs or suicide. I think we're up to 6 this year alone, with a 7th on hospice. Meanwhile, my 98 year old great grandmother...

    Right! I made the mistake of moving the other day. Before I even knew what happened I was on my @ss on the driveway. They're actually way better about being gentle with the kids!

    Age limit on purchasing a puppy

    Age, aside from being a minor or pushing 100, really shouldn't be a factor. Even young people can randomly die so that excuse always seemed silly to me.

    Age limit on purchasing a puppy

    I've heard of rescues denying based on age (too young or too old). I'm sure *some* breeders do as well. When we went to pick up Kaizer, the guy actually asked me how old I was as he didn't want to sell to a teen! Imagine his surprise to find out I was 28 :rofl: I mean, I get it. Kinda. A lot of...

    Told ya :p that's like the one ''spider' that even the most arachnophobics can appreciate the beauty of. That whole family is pretty, honestly. OBT or "orange bitey things" are gorgeous as well, but they didn't earn that nickname for giggles, they really are bitey and FAST. ETA - green bottle...

    Police Doberman Puppy doing CPR

    By doing chest compressions, you are not only wirking the heart, but lungs as well. So this could potentially be life saving, depending on what's going on. Like, for my dad's heart attack where his heart was in fibrillation, chest compressions kept him "alive" until they got him to ER and...

    It is :) they're in my favorite family of tarantulas, poecilotheria (or pokies for short). If you want to see a REALLY cool one, Google "p. Metallica".

    It came down so hard and so fast that it barely soaked in. It was crazy. Wasn't even a very big storm but it rained insanely hard for about an hour. Then as quickly as it started, it stopped. I'm wondering if it was the same storm that flooded out a town in the UP. Fortunately, it was just a ton...

    We got a wee bit of rain ... Mind you, our driveway has a very steep incline after the sidewalk going out to the street. Like, cars bottom out steep if they don't hit it an an angle .... the water was actually up to the sidewalk at one point but I got distracted trying to help a guy who's bike...

    Need to change dog food-bring on the suggestions!

    I'm with Bri on this one. I wouldn't risk raw with a sickly pup that's already malnourished. Too risky. And a minor set back could be catastrophic at this point. I also second a bland diet (chicken or turkey and rice), with beneficial digestion supplements. This really seems to help a lot in...

    Prong collar

    He's nicknamed meth lab because he's a perfect genetic storm of stupid, crazy and hyper. He really ends up looking like the meme ... And don't tempt me :) my old pain Dr already thought i had lost my mind for getting Kaizer lol "whyyyy would you get a mix like that?!" Because doc, i can go...

    Prong collar

    I have the curogan because they're supposed to be more water resistant. I like them. I think the color looks nice. They're a slightly softer metal, though. The black are just coated, so I've heard they chip/peel. *Looks for picture of Kaizer wearing his ...* I know I have one!

    Appropriate uses for "Crating."

    I treat in the very early stages. But stop once they understand the command. Or go down to sporadic treating. As in - they may get one, they may not. But they definitely never get one until they are all the way in AND the door is latched. I crate pups at night and whenever no one is home or...

    Woman locks herself out of her house...dog lets her in!

    This is why I just don't lock my doors :p we have 3 entry doors. They're all old and a pita to lock, but especially the front ones. Plus, my front door is almost solid glass. Locking it would be pointless. I figure if people want in, they're gonna come in regardless. And then get a very rude...

    Should I spay-neuter my European Doberman?

    We have a ton of rescues in Detroit. One even got millions in donations after news stations started talking about the problem. To date - jack all has been done about the actual problem. Why? Because there's no nice solution. Feral dogs can't just be loved on and turned into family pets...
