    Food aggression with other dogs?

    What amount of food aggression/protectiveness is appropriate with three dogs eating together? If any? I'm seeing some occasional snarling, growling, and barking lately with high value dinners and treats but no real fights. I feel like some "protecting" of their food is warranted, but where do I...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    Just an update: "Belle" found a wonderful home with a local Pit owner I met at the dog park and became friends with. She has beautiful, spoiled, raw-eating bullies (one male, one female) and she has joined them with no issue. I was sad to see her go but it was too good of a home to pass up...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    My Basset mix Roscoe is usually pretty droopy but when he perks up it is adorable. He hasn't played with Burt inside in a few months but when she got here he was more ready to play than she was! They were calling her ChiChi... which I won't be keeping. "Belle" keeps going through my head but...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    It's not that I don't want her! :p I'd love to keep her, but I do foster for a Basset rescue and won't be able to continue if I go up to three dogs as permanent residents. We will see though, because I know the scents of new dogs stress my chinchillas out for the first couple days - so three...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    By the time her spay appointment comes around, I will likely be too attached to her, but we'll see! 3 is my absolute maximum for where I live (my yard is nice and big, but my house is small). Here she is in my lap - I have major major shedders so it was nice to not be left in a blanket of hair...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    She was great about the crate last night, but as soon as I sit down on the floor she crawls into my lap and just lays there... I've been a foster failure before with other animals but do my best!! My husband doesn't even like Pits but he has already dubbed her "sickeningly cute!" There does seem...

    Pit puppy foster pics!

    So late last night I got a text from my neighbor. She had come home with a 5-month old Pit puppy from a recently homeless person. They gave up everything they had for her as well. Hubby and I went over to look at her and couldn't leave here there (she would have had to stay outside). She was...

    Planned Parenthood info please....

    I just wanted to chime in and tell you to be careful about the depo shot. Although it is nice to not have a period, there are extreme and pretty awful side affects. After 9 months my hair was falling out, I was lactating, had gained 40lbs, blood pressure through the roof, and had terrible...

    If you feed Diamond Naturals, you can print a coupon at Tractor Supply Company - Home for $5 off of a $25 purchase. I believe you can print two per computer with different emails, so save $10 on your next two 40lb bags of dog food.

    Long car ride with car-sick prone dog

    Just an update :) We had puke #4 a little after - a very tiny amount, but like the rest it was all bile. After the Dramamine he seemed to feel a lot better and actually slept versus sitting up and panting. He seemed rather alert during pit stops so I don't think it sedated him too much. Fed...

    Long car ride with car-sick prone dog

    So we are 189 miles into the trip and just cleaned up vomit #3 :( My vet didn't have medication on hand and could not order it in time. Was so busy getting ready I did forget about it... I feel horrible. Anyway, my vet told me correct dosage for bonine and dramamine so I'm going to have to go...

    what dog food do you use, and why?

    I feel Diamond Naturals Chicken and Rice - I've tried the Lamb & Rice but it wasn't a hit. I get it at TSC for about $28 for a 40lb bag, but I've used their $5/$25 off coupon for the last 2 or 3 bags so I get it for $23. :thumbup: Mine also get scraps but it is limited to raw chicken/meat...

    Long car ride with car-sick prone dog

    Thank you.. I will ask about the Cerenia. 6-8 hours before the trip sounds about right - may give him a couple handfuls at the hotel and hope he digests it before the rest of the trip. If it doesn't work on the way up we can try something different on the way down. I just wanted to make sure I...

    Long car ride with car-sick prone dog

    My Husky/Rottie (Burt) has always upchucked whatever was in his stomach on car rides, sometimes even what appeared to be bile. It happens just a couple miles out of leaving, he pants, looks aggravated, and is fine after emptying his stomach for the rest of the ride (longest ride we've taken was...
