    Skateboard...oh no!

    I just took Riddick on his normal lunchtime walk and we passed a kid on a skateboard. He is almost three now and I never realized he had never seen a skateboard. He has been around bikes, fourwheelers, lawnmowers, etc. But never a skateboard. He freaked out. Didn't make a sound but hair stood...

    Maya pictures!

    She is beautiful! I have to stop looking at her due to my need to get Riddick a buddy and she makes me want to start looking. I have to stop and remember Riddick is finally out of the major puppy stage and its fun to sleep through the night.

    When Riddick was really young I had someone ask me if he was a daschund (sp?). Letting me know I really must have been seeing him through a mothers eyes!

    do you play rough with your dog?

    Riddick and I play leap frog! He thinks its the best. I don't play rough because I don't want him to think its okay to play rough with anyone. His size and breed make him intimidating as it is.

    Update: Pet food recall widened

    Oh no! My dogs food is on this list. What should I do now?? My vet and I just put him on the duck and potato dry to determine what he is allergic to because the Candiea made him lose hair and gave him a horrible rash that was moisty. He is doing well on this, do you think its okay? I don't want...

    Bad Day!!

    I started feeding Canidae about 2 months ago. And the first month I did see improvement because he has always had dandruff and it did make his coat shiney. I supplement fish oil to help with that as well. There is an extremely large amount of pollen around here right now. For about 2...

    Awed by Stupidity

    Ok!! I was at the dog park about a month ago and the same thing happened to me and Riddick. The woman was to busy talking to someone to notice her dog up in my dogs face and Riddick is scared when an unknown dog runs up at him. Riddick gave his warning routine (never laid one tooth on the dog...

    Bad Day!!

    Riddick is a black and tan. He has ALL of the bad health problems dobies are known to have. He is even getting ready to get a new hip. It really is a good thing my entire family loves him because I would never be able to afford all of this on my own. His personality wins over everyone he meets...

    Bad Day!!

    Riddick has bad skin. A topical spray didn't help. Canidae dog food made his coat shine but didn't help the dry skin. Now in the past days he is dry and itchy, not to mention WORSE. He is chewing his paws and has scaly moist skin under his belly and arms. Benadryl didn't help over the past...

    Bad Day!!

    My day is going horrible!! Poor Riddick's allergy problem is getting worse, not better. The vet visit was good though because we still have more options to make it better. But...I came home and the girl I was getting Riddick's new little sister (a boxer) from called to say that she died last...

    Dinovite?

    Has anyone ever used Dinovite? http://www.dinovite.com/product-list.html I'm trying to find out if it is a good product or not. I haven't asked my vet yet but was going to see if anyone here has given it to their dog? Thanks in advance!

    Alright. I'm glad the cure is another dog, so I'm on the look out for a new dog, seriously. :)

    What is my problem?

    I just paid an HUGE amount of money for my dog to have surgery and I still want another dog. I have a problem, I'm addicted to dogs! Is there a cure for this? A twelve step program? How do the rest of you cope?

    Thyroid Problem

    He is on Canidae dry and wet food. Which we switched to about a month and half ago. He is actually on the skinny side but has dry skin and loss of hair. He is only 2 so I figure he'll fill out as he grows up. I'm just frustrated because I just want him to be healthy.

    Wait or Stay?

    I've heard people started using wait for herding dogs because "stay by me" means push the herd away. Which is the opposite of the normal stay, the dog would run away from you to get the herd away from you. Does that make sense? :)

    Thyroid Problem

    My dog has a thyroid problem that we got tested at the vet. The vet gave him levothyroxine. He hasn't been to his month check up yet but I was wondering how long it took to see changes in other dogs? He has really dry skin but I was hoping it would improve after we found the thyroid problem...
