I have no problem with trans using whatever bathroom. I do have a problem with a man in the women/girls' locker room who still has his penis (ie, the case at a high school in Missouri). Why do the rights of one trans outweigh the rights of the rest of the girls using that locker room, most of...

I guess I'm one of the three people who don't have a Facebook account, and I don't 'chat' well online anyway, like Maxy... so, oh well... I do miss Renee's dry sense of humor, I hope she's doing okay.

Riley tends to sit sloppy, he will sit 'correctly' if I get after him, but he's never had any knee problems (until Michaela broadsided him last year). When we were taking agility lessons, I took him to a vet who specialized in sports, chiropractic and rehab, just to get a baseline. I asked her...

Thank you, and have fun! Lots of nice people and everyone cheers for a Q. There's a woman with a Terv who is just amazing to watch - the dog is super fast, barks when she finds a rat and stops to look at her handler when the course is clear. She finished her Master title at this trial...

He looks good! He's such a sweetheart, I'm glad the grandkids love him, too - they look so proud to be walking him.

Just got home from a weekend of Barn Hunt (2 tests per day) where Michaela had moved up to Senior level (or, as the judge said during the morning briefing, welcome to Purgatory). On her first run, Michaela found the first 3 rats in 58 seconds (maximum time is 3 min 30 sec) and found the fourth...

Have you looked at Alpine Outfitters? They sell the Urban Trail harness with the option of a D ring in the front for hard pullers. They will make a custom size harness for you, in whatever color you'd like, along with reflective strips. You can get the standard or an adjustable harness (adjusts...

Pretty girl! I can relate to the nose in the ground photo - that's Michaela's favorite occupation.

Great pics! I love the second to last pic of Crystal with her head a little sideways, rolling her eye at the camera. Such personality! Hero is one handsome young fellow, and the head tilt is so cute. Only 5.5 months?? Yeep!

Thanks! Next trial is the third weekend in March, and we can join the countless others who only find 3 out of 4 rats... :D Sis came to a practice and took some photos... Looking for rats Found one! It was tucked under the slanted bale. Found another, and she doesn't want to give...

Happy birthday, little girl, and here's to many, many more!

Rusty was our first horse. Sis and I shared him for about a year before Sis bought a Morgan/Tennessee Walker mare who was sold cheap because the mare was smarter than the people who owned her and enjoyed terrorizing them. Rusty was an 11 yr. old QH bought at a farm auction for a whopping $105...

I dunno... maybe ask them what their worst, most phobic fear is, like snakes or spiders, then ask them to imagine a person who doesn't speak their language, comes up and decides to 'cure' them of their fear by immersing them in snakes or spiders. He won't let them out until they stop fighting...

Listen to your dog - if he's uncomfortable around your roommates, keep him locked in your bedroom when you're not there. If you trust him uncrated, leave him loose in your locked bedroom. If you want to crate him, crate him. It's not your roommates' call - it's what you decide is best for your...
