    Does my dog like going for runs?

    I didn't start running until he was about 1.5, I think. I know full well how much both of my dogs (we also have a Basset/Lab) are prone to hip dysplasia, and have been very careful. The harness is actually the kind that clips on to the front and is supposed to prevent too much pulling. "Halti...

    Does my dog like going for runs?

    I tried yesterday without the harness and just the collar. He seemed a bit better about it, but nothing significant. On the plus side, he didn't pull any more than he does with the harness, which is all it's for, so I'm going to stop using that thing. I think you guys may be on to something...

    Does my dog like going for runs?

    I've got a two-year-old lab. He's calmed down a bit since he was a puppy, but he's still a lab and he still has energy to spare. I go for a short (2.5 miles or so) run several times a week, and I usually bring him with me. Lately though, I've been wondering if he actually wants to go, and was...

    Is Canidae the new Uber-Food?

    My GF and I are starting to get sick of smelling dog farts all day, so I'm picking up a bag of Canidae after work. Hopefully it will work a bit better then the Inova.

    Iams is top notch food!

    Vets make me wonder sometimes. My vet is great, but the inside of the building looks like a **** Science Diet showroom. Gotta make the money somehow, I guess. :rolleyes: Edit: Dàmn, I can't say "dàmn"?

    Enough with the mud!

    I hate that! And I live in the Northwest, so it's a pretty constant problem. :D

    They have two stores about 100 miles north of me, but that's it. :(

    UM, Yeah! So how does your dog sleep?

    This is usually about how they sleep:

    Thanks guys. I think I'm going to give the Canidae a try and see how he takes it.

    dry or wet

    I've never known anyone to do that either, or recommend doing it. I like to put water in with dry kibble. My smaller dog gets it down easier that way. It's like cereal. :D

    Watching a train wreck in slo-mo

    No, I'm not, and I never said that. I'm saying that if you raised a Pomeranian on a chain and a Pit on a chain, the Pit would be more likely to kill you. For this I'm getting crap from every **** Pit owner on the site. I know! IT'S SUCH A CRAZY IDEA!!! Here, I'm just going to write your...

    Watching a train wreck in slo-mo

    Fine you guys don't like that study? Here's one by the CDC: http://www.cdc.gov/ncipc/duip/dogbreeds.pdf Keep in mind that I don't advocate trying to ban any dog breed. I think you can ban a species of animal, but it's really too difficult to ban animals that can interbreed. All I'm saying is...

    Watching a train wreck in slo-mo

    I know that Pit Bull can refer to several breeds, but why does that matter as long as the categories don't overlap? For example, if I tried to compare Pit Bulls and Staffordshire Terriers, then that wouldn't work because one contains the other. However, a Pomeranian is NOT a Pit Bull. ;) I...

    Watching a train wreck in slo-mo

    You sound like Homer. "Oh Kent, everyone knows you can use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true!" Those are some nice stats that you have there, but what does it have to do with Pit Bulls? You have "dogs", which is nice, I guess, but I'm interested in breaking that down just a...

    which dog food is best?

    Yeah, so I have no idea what he was talking about. Unless they actively try to leach the stuff out. :D http://www.serve.com/BatonRouge/taurine_chmr.htm

    which dog food is best?

    How sure are you about that? I'm pretty sure that's just an issue with lamb-only foods, and most of their foods are made with chicken meal, which would contain taurine. There is one with lamb as the main meat, but I would hope they'd supplement that one.

    bully sticks

    My dog goes through 4 bucks worth of bull donk in about 30 minutes. I don't make enough to support that kind of habit. :D

    Another food recommendation thread.

    You guys must really get sick of this, but I'm having trouble digesting all this information on my own. My dog is a year-old Lab who has been on Innova since about a month old and has always had pretty bad gas and not-so-solid poops. I figured it was time to try to find something that fits him...

    Does your dog do this?!?!? NOSEY ACD!

    Well, my dog will get into absolutely everything and anything he can. Shopping bags are no exception.
