    Cesar Milan - cult?

    Have any of you been around wolves? They punish. Boy, do they punish. They warn first and if the warning goes unheeded...WHAM! Someone comes away with a bit ear, punctured cheek or patches of fur missing. Sometimes they don't warn. If a subordinate doesn't observe feeding priorities he...

    Top 10 reasons to breed your dog

    In my house that list is called one neutered MinPin.
  3. Q

    Help! Why doesn't my dog like her Kong . . .

    Don't worry...mine isn't into chewing man made things either. If I loosely put kibble in his he'll bat them around to get the kibble out, but chew on them? You gotta be freakin' kiddin'! They smell like an old tire and taste about like one too. Now where did we stash that greasy lamb bone?

    Am I doing this right?

    I use "Hurry Up" and sometimes Ralph fakes me out. He does a "courtesy" lift of the leg...but nothing comes out. Then looks at me like "Ok, where's the reward?":rolleyes:

    Doggy Litter Boxes

    I think I know what you are saying. Ralph was potty pad trained before I got him. I take him out for walks, but they are mostly for his cardio health (ok, mine too). When I am at work he is in the kitchen behind a babygate and has a couple of potty pads in a corner for his use. He will...

    Cesar Milan - cult?

    Watching TV is entertainment...not dog training. Cesar is entertainment. Unfortunately the same people who have crazy dogs don't get that. I watch Cesar because there is sometimes nothing else on. (My favorite show is Deadliest Catch - Edgar Hansen is cute.) There have been some...

    The Latest Designer Dog

    I was out offroading and the little guy was guarding his Jeep. The owner said the mother was a Pit and the father a Chi. It seems he inherited the agression of the Chi and the tenacity of the Pit. I wouldn't stick my fingers in that Jeep. :eek:

    The Latest Designer Dog

    Ever see a Pit Bull/Chihuahua mix? I have...looks like a minature Boxer.
  10. Q

    Min Pin vs Chihuahua

    My MinPin is amazingly a couch potato during the evenings...but I put him through a fast mile with no potty break...uphill. He gets to potty, check his P-Mail, check out the other dogs in the neighborhood and then a fast one back home. And when I say fast, he's not quite breaking into a...

    Dog breeds you would never own

    Any thing that says "bull" or has a short nose. Ugly to my eye. I'm also not a fan of long bodied dogs. And no droolers.
  12. Q

    Min Pin vs Chihuahua

    I have a MinPin, Ralph. He's hyper only if he's not exercised enough. I have to briskly walk him a half hour in the morning and an hour at night. If I do that he sleeps on the bed until I put him in his bed. So be prepared to be the fittest you have ever been. Seperation anxiety: don't...
