I'm really sorry, Jess.

I'm having the same problem with my Mastiff. I upped his rations, added eggs and a high calorie vitamin supplement but if it helped any, it was very minimal. Today I started him on a real basic "satin ball" stuff. Hamburger, oats and eggs, on top of his regular food. If he doesn't gain...

I used DE last summer. I treated the yard with it 2 times and sprinkled it on my dogs all the time. It didn't help that much with the fleas. I've also put it in their food as well for any internal parasites they could have had. I'm going to do it again this summer because its not really all...

The same with me last summer. I tried using alternatives but they didn't work. It finally came down to having my pets infested with fleas or giving them Comfortis. I gave them Comfortis.

Hi! :)

Absolutely! :) This was just taken a few weeks ago! Ratboy...Eddie reacts...negatively toward ANYONE he meets. If he's given space and not directly approached, he will keep his distance. The danger with him is that if someone isn't dog savvy and just keep walking toward him...its a...

Anyone curious of how this ended up even though it's from 2008? :) Eddie is fear aggressive when it comes to strangers and has been since this incident. It's taken A LOT of work but he is now to the point that he can be safely let out with strangers and be trusted to not attempt to bite...

That's kind of harsh, Jess. You have a kid that is severely afraid of dogs; it isn't rocket science to determine that a pet store may not be the best place to take her because you MAY run into dogs and that MAY cause the kid to flip out. There are ALWAYS dogs in the pet store I go to...

No, I don't think your wrong to crate them when you need time to yourself. Neither of my dogs are crated very often anymore but I do think that its necessary that they are familiar with a crate in case they need to be crated at the vet, etc. Never know what could happen that would require...

He's actually pretty good at curling up onto just one seat on the couch...I don't think that it would be comfortable but he seems to like it... Thanks! I think he's pretty cute too! :D Nope, I don't see anything either...;) I want to hide with him too...I wanted so bad to just crawl...

Where do you go Uallis? I can't find you anywhere...;) You wouldn't be behind the couch cushion would you? Uallis says, "Shhhh, Uallis hiding...Uallis very good at hiding..."

Several years ago, I was bitten by a cat that I had at the time...he has since passed on. Anyway, it was a severe bite. He clamped his mouth on my finger and wouldn't let go. My boyfriend actually had to pry his mouth open so I could get my finger out. lol...After that I was...

Thanks! At this point it looks like the seizures are really infrequent. I just document everything that I see that is weird and pass the info onto my vet. Right now, he's doing ok though. Oh, I would NEVER make him work for affection. He already isn't the most affectionate of dogs. When he...

I joined awhile back...haven't been too terribly active in the forum though. Would like to change that as this forum is pretty active, which I like...lol For those that remember us: I have 2 dogs; Eddie the Lab and Uallis the English Mastiff. Both dogs are doing great. In June, Eddie had a...

Thanks! Eddie was around somewhere. I haven't taken many pictures lately.
