    is there anything that will survive a retriever!

    It seems as though every chew item I give Rusty he can literally devour it in 2 hours. I have a kong I fill with treats and I say to myself that will keep him busy a while. So I check on him and what do I find, the Kong is empty and hes done with it. I purchased some Red Barn Bully Sticks the 12...

    retriever who doesnt retrieve?

    Was curious if anyone knew of a golden retriever who majority of the time doesnt like to play fetch. Rusty seems to do the above, ill be playing with him and all and he just wont go fetch. He does it every now and then but rarely? Should I be concerned?

    food allergy

    I talked to my vet and carried Rusty to the vet and they said he is scratching so much because of possibly a food allergy. Is there a brand of food that will remedy this situation I hate to see the poor little guy scratch so much :(

    how much should a puppy scratch ?

    I have a question about scratching, I know that some scratching is normal but how much is not normal. Rusty seems to be scratching a good bit all over. Mainly on his mouth and on his side near his rear legs. Could this be a food/allergic reaction ? Im feeding him Innova Evo and he loves it. I...

    having a problem with chewing

    Well it was bound to happen sooner or later. For over 5 months I have not had a problem with Rusty chewing until now. I work nights so I put him outside in a large fenced area with lots of water and toys (Kongs) to play with. This is time number 2 that he has destroyed the back doormat and Im...

    Rusty's First Bath at Home

    Well I took the plunge and decided to give Rusty a bath at home. All I can say was it was loads of fun! Here are some pics. This one I think he wasn't sure what I was about to do to him so he leaped onto the patio table lol

    So far on Evo

    Rusty is doing a lot better since I changed his food. He actually eats! :) He will actually eat all of his food at each time. Its a good feeling knowing he is enjoying his food and to know that he is getting all the nutrients from it. Thought I would just share :)

    So I switched to Innova Evo

    And now I am curious as to just how much i should give Rusty? I used the feeding wizard on their website and it shows roughly 1 1/2 cups but it doesnt really say how many times a day. How many times a day should i give this to Rusty?

    Hi I am a new owner

    Hi I am a new puppy owner and I love every minute of it. I do have some questions on food choice though. Right now I am using the brand Beneful by Purina but Rusty seems to be picky with it. He will eat it but not as much as he should or at least I dont think. I was just curious as to what would...
