    Knoxville, TX Dog Trainer?

    Anybody know one? Friend-of-a-friend on Facebook is fostering a dog that seems to have really bad separation anxiety, and she (along with everybody else replying to her posts) is completely clueless about how to fix it. I did a quick search on apdt.com and did not see anyone I was excited...

    Cat Food Questions

    The training center where I work recently got a "facility cat" - a cat who basically just lives at the center, whose main purpose is to desensitize dogs to being around cats. He's extremely good at his job. :D The problem we're having with him, though, is that he eats EVERYTHING...

    Cell phone buying help :(

    I dropped my phone at work the other day and the dogs ate it. :( So now I have to buy a new one and I'm completely clueless. I'm on a family plan with my parents, so I'd prefer to stay on that plan. But last year when I dropped my phone in the dogs' pool at work and had to buy this new...

    Is there a way...

    ... to jump to your own post in a thread? Because there are some very long, very old threads that occasionally surface. I know I posted somewhere in the thread because there's the icon that says I did, but I don't remember what I said and hate flipping through 15 pages to find my one post...

    "Told ya so" moment?

    So my roommate decided on a bit of a whim that she needed a puppy. She's been working in the dog industry for a few years so she basically knew what she was getting into, but still, she literally went from "I think I might want to get a puppy?" to actually bringing home the puppy in about 4...

    Help! My computer keeps zooming in on webpages....

    Seriously, I'm just browsing a page and then all of a sudden everything on the page gets bigger. It's happened two or three times, so while by now the pages are so big they're easier to see, it's getting really annoying having to scroll left and right to be able to read everything. I don't...

    Mad Men

    I'm addicted. But AMC is REALLY mean.... They posted the full episode of the season premier on their website, but it seems they're not posting any full episodes after that. :( Hulu doesn't have full episodes either, and of course Netflix doesn't have it yet. Anyone know where I can...

    AKC Obedience People...

    ... I have a couple of questions. But I don't want to ask them on the public forum. Is there anybody who's competed in AKC Obedience (preferably titled) who wouldn't mind PMing with me about it? THANKS!

    Annoying night *vent*

    First, I was up late, didn't go to bed until about 12:30 (I usually go to bed around 11:00). Then Keegan woke me up at 4:00 pacing the floor, so we went outside. Walked around for a few minutes but he didn't potty, he just wanted to eat grass. Which then made me afraid he'd vomit, so when...

    Need some kindle help....

    *irritated* So I'm trying to "loan" my sister a kindle book. She sent me the email to loan the book to, I copied and pasted it, and it turns out she had a typo in the email she sent me so the book is now floating around in cyberspace. [Seriously. Her email has ONE number in it, and she...

    Such a good brother...

    I let Keegan play with my friend's pointer today. The pointer doesn't get to play with other dogs much, he can be a little rough at times and we don't know if he'd ever played with a dog as small as Luna (7 pounds), and Luna tends to not like larger dogs (the pointer was almost 60 pounds), so I...

    What breed is Robin's dog...

    ... on "How I Met Your Mother"? The scruffy one on the far right. I say it's a Portugeese Podengo, my friend says it's a Berger Picard. Neither of us really know what we're talking about so it's likely we're both wrong, LOL. Also I think I've seen the dog in a commercial lately but...

    Fun things from your childhood that you still love. :)

    AKA Read This Thread When You're Too Freaked Out By The Other Thread to Get to Sleep. LOL I loved the show The Letter People. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ9oKzApIeQ I think I only saw a couple of episodes, when I was REALLY little, before they took it off the air. I remember seeing my...

    "Are you training that dog?"

    I actually get this question a lot. How do you answer it??? I had Keegan out shopping with me today, and I got him out in the parking lot to let him toilet and do a little bit of heeling practice. I had my treat bag on but I wasn't using a clicker, we were being pretty discreete, really...

    King Cake?

    I'd love to get a king cake for mardi gras, but most of the ones I've had (from grocery stores and stuff) are really gross - dry, no flavor, etc. A few years ago (geez, probably about 9 or 10 years ago now), my friend who was from New Orleans, ordered a king cake from somewhere that was...

    Poooooooor Keegan....

    (This will make you cry.) So Keegan's been waking me up at 4:00 in the morning needing to go potty, so I've started taking his water bowl away at night. On a related note, we've also been making a lot of recent progress on retrieve. Tonight, I emptied the water bowl and put it up on...

    Collie that won Westminster is son of double merle

    http://www.astraean.com/borderwars/2012/02/westminster-rewards-cruelty.html The article is more than a little dramatic, but still interesting and the information is dissappointing. I'm wondering how many more breeders out there are breeding double merle stud dogs just to produce all merle...

    Hog hunting?

    So, I want to know, but I don't want to know.... My neighbor just moved in a few months ago, with his 10+ dogs (when he moved in he said he had 10, but I think they recently had a litter of puppies). I spoke to him briefly when he first moved in, and he said he does hog hunting; he said most...

    Oh grow up!

    I just did an age calculator for Keegan - it's supposed to tell you how old he is in human years, factoring in breed and size and stuff. Supposed to be very accurate. It says he's 14 years old. :rolleyes: I just can't wait until he actually has some level of maturity, LOL. I really...
