So recently at my job the largest union we have went on strike, almost 3 weeks ago actually. This lead to a schedule change for me. I was originally gone from 6am-4:30pm. I would make sure to walk my guy before work and then he had a dog walker during the day. Once I got home he'd have...

So I will start by saying I've been mia for awhile due to lots of changes going on in our lives but I have missed the group! As we approach Reds 2 year birthday in June I started to prepare for the neuter piece. Of course my vet recommended be be tested for VWD, and he tested positive. She...

The more I educate myself on what a good breeder looks like the more I find myself being grateful that our guy turned out so well and is such a good fit for us. The image below is from her breeder Facebook page.... :facepalm:

So last week I asked my husband for a trial separation in our marraige. Through this process I have been staying at the house with the animals. Thankfully Red and I are the bonded pair and it had just been us sleeping in the bed every night anyways. The thing I'm running into though is...

At first I thought Red just had allergies or a little cold. Well the other night thick snot was coming out and he woke me up a couple times trying to clear his nose. Thankfully the vet got us in today. After check xrays and showing the vet the photos I took of the snot she said it was...

Good morning all, I figured who doesn't want to talk about dog diarrhea first thing in the morning Haha. So last week, Wednesday to be exact red came down with a case of diarrhea. The dog Walker noticed it first during the day and then I did in the middle of the night on the bedroom rug.... He...

Red and I got up early to go walk the beach Saturday!

We originally got a pet store prong collar to see if it was something we would use before we went with a herm Springer. We are at the point where we want to buy the real deal but I'm torn on the size and was looking for opinions. Of course our guy has the skinny neck and if I remember...

Red has had a busy summer in Maine and I figured I would share some of his adventures with the group!

Today Reddington is 1! Where has the time gone? :( On that note he is such an amazing addition to our little family and keeps us on our toes daily! He has sit, lie down, stay, through, and wait all down perfectly inside the house. Outside the house it's a daily work in progress :rofl...

Today a friend and I took Red for a hike near the coast!! With the weather being nicer a lot more people are out on the trails. This meant I had to keep Red on a lead since he can not be trusted to come back yet once we sees another dog on the trail. Some of our photos are below!

Around 1:30am I was woken by a smell I knew all too well...our dogs poop. I got up to see that he had diarrhea, all over the rug of course. Since we are slowly transitioning between puppy and adult food I thought maybe I had just added in too much adult food and it upset his stomach. I put...

So our intact 9 month old Male peed on 2 separate dogs on sunday :facepalm: The first was my husband's parents 11 week old husky, and the second was his friend's 6 month old female German short haired pointer a couple hours later. We obviously corrected him both times but he's never peed on...

We had our first group manners training class tonight, and I'll just say I don't even want to go back :help: The dog in class today is not the dog we normally deal with. Our boy just hit the 9 month mark and we had our first group training class since puppy school. We are not allowed to...

Our boy is 9 months old and 91.5lbs. We are so in love but on the verge of going insane many days Haha. He is such a love bug and a character for sure. Sometimes he's too smart for his own good :wacky: We love him and are trying to enjoy the process while looking forward to what he will be...

So right now I think my husband and I are torn. He received a message yesterday from his aunt who has a friend that is looking to re-home their doberman. According to his aunt so far the dog is about the same age as our guy who is almost 8 months. She said they are looking to rehome him...

I have a friend with a 2 year old female doberman and she's going crazy with all the shedding. I have never experienced heavy shedding with our dobermans so I have no advice for her, that's where you all come in! She said they end up sweeping or vacuuming twice a day because it is so much...

Good morning everyone! So our boy just turned 7 months old and is such a spoiled energetic boy. He is 95% house broken he is in a crate when we are at work but then downstairs with my husband and I when we are home. He does not go pee in his crate and he doesn't drop down and pee but about...

So this morning Reddington managed to cut his leg pretty bad when running around playing in the woods. He ended up at the emergency vet with 5 staples in his leg and was released with the antibiotics, pain meds, and a regular cone from the vet. First off im worried about his leg not...

We have a beautiful new doberman who is just about 12 weeks old and we are concerned about his ears. The breeder brought the dog to the vets at 8 weeks to get the ears done. The vet recommended waiting until they were fully healed to post them which wasn't a big deal for us. At 11 weeks we...
