    Just saying hi

    Hi everyone, it's been a long time since I was on the web at all (haven't had the computer access that I used to) but just wanted to stop by and tell everyone hello & that I'm still alive and all, and Moro and Midas are still doing well and I'm sorry I haven't been able to get any new pictures...

    "Dudley" labrador retrievers

    I was looking at info. on labradors because I was wondering why Midas looks so different from so many other labs I've seen. I think wikipedia may have somewhat given me an answer! I've never heard of this before, but their picture of a "dudley" labrador retriever looks remarkably like Midas...

    ugh

    I've felt like I have a hair trapped waaay in the back of my throat for two days now and it's driving me crazy! and no, I wasn't doing anything dirty lol :D ... I'm pretty sure if it's there, it's Moro's. She has two different types of hair...this really thick, longer hair on top and then her...

    Return of the puppy!

    Has anyone else seen their adult dogs go through a second "puppy phase"? Moro is a couple months over a year old, so she's still pretty young, but lately she has been acting REALLY young :D At about 1 year old it seemed like she had started to grow up, had become a little more 'aloof'...

    I hate this girl

    ...and it's hard when we're supposed to be 'friends'. this weekend was really stressful. Me and my husband have known this girl for a few years... she has 'issues' by the truckload, but I won't get into it. When we first got Moro as a puppy, she lived with us for a few months because she...

    Did anyone watch the wolf special on the Discovery Channel this weekend?

    Oh man, I almost cried, they were so beautiful :) The documentary was about the sawtooth wolf pack in Idaho, although it was filmed several years ago and most of the orignal pack is no longer alive. They captured some GORGEOUS images on film though, especially the pack hunting by night and...

    Just need to vent I guess

    It's been a weird thanksgiving holiday. I found out 2 days before thanksgiving that my stepmom died. Well...she wasn't technically my stepmom anymore, but I still considered her that way. I guess I should explain about my dad first... my dad and my mom were married till I was 8, then...

    Whole milk?

    Is milk (from the grocery store) bad for dogs? I've heard it can cause stomach problems before, but I wasn't really sure how bad or good it can be, and if it's only hard on the stomachs of certain dogs. I always buy whole milk because I just like the taste better... Moro LOVES it. Looooves...

    Old English Sheepdog?

    Does anyone on the forum own one of these? I have always thought they were SO cute with all that hair and those big furry feet, and the puppies are just adorable. I might even consider owning one someday, in the very distant future of course...as of right now I have enough dog hair around the...

    Breed mix guesses?

    So I'm just interested to see what kind of answers I get... Moro is a wolfdog and when I got her, the breeder had told us that she was 'almost full' wolf (naive me didn't ask questions)...but after reading a lot about wolf hybrids and their behavior, and reading that it is common for wolf...

    She listened; she just didn't feel like it

    Sorry this is one of my long-winded posts hehe... Does anyone have a dog that will 'sort of' obey and come back if it gets loose, but hesitate to give in and come all the way back? This happened with Moro last night... she walks every day with me or my husband on a leash and harness, she also...

    Missouri residents - vote for Claire!

    Claire McCaskill has recently been in the news because of her new political campaign ad featuring Michael J. Fox (in support of stem cell research.) I hope all Missouri residents who are dog-lovers will vote for Claire! She is a friend to the cause of shutting down puppy mills. Here is a...

    What do you think of this site?

    I have been doing a lot of reading about wolves and wolfdog crosses on the web... I have quickly realized that the wolfdog is one of the more polarizing types (I don't wanna say "breeds" because they aren't really a breed)...with opinions ranging the whole spectrum, from fierce protection of the...

    I swear I see worse things every time we walk

    Sorry for the long post, I need to vent :( After our walk yesterday I came home with Moro ready to scream about the stupidity of people!! I posted before about how there are a lot of chained dogs in my neighborhood... well yesterday, we walked by this house that had not one, but two pitbulls...

    Food questions

    I was wanting to know about some better dog foods... are there any major retail stores that carry the brands you guys feed with the better ingredients and less fillers like ground corn meal? (Innova, Eagle Pack, etc)? I went to the pet store in town (they sell small animals, but not dogs...
