    protecting puppy from parvo and other diseases

    Thanks for the replies guys. And my bro doesn't live in the home sadie had parvo in, but you bring up a good point because I don't know what was there before him. Same thing with my mom's house they just moved in last year. We have lived here for 4 yrs so shy of what's on our boots it should be...

    Hi there, have an 8 and a half week old beagle mix, had him for a week tomorrow. I know beagles are vocal, but he only barks a bit when he is playing other than that he is silent - except for in his kennel. I send him in with a treat, tell him go to bed and give him treat and praise when he...

    Not my dog...not training just reacting...

    Hi there, my brother has a mutt, she is about 4 yrs old. I can't do much for training her as my brother is quite the stubborn person. He is truly unique in that way. Couldn't understand unless you knew him. Anyway, his dog is a very nice dog. Mostly. She has been around kids her whole life, she...

    Puppy and toddler, biting, jumping

    Hey, yeah this was quite awhile ago. Kodiak is 5 months old now, getting neutered in a couple days, and gets along wonderfully with my son. They do fight sometimes, well my son will fight and argue while kodiak sits there with the same look in his eye his mother's got. Now that Kodi is older I...

    Horse incident: Am I at fault?

    When I was around 10, my parents were selling our horse named Annie. They offered to load annie for her, but the buyer was like "no I can do it myself, i've been around horses all my life." Sooooooo she loads annie, after she purchased her, off our property. She had the rope wrapped around her...

    I hate my little sister. (rant alert)

    Positive vibes really do help. Just think about what you want, and it will form. Feel like you already have what you want in life and it'll come. Sounds far fetched, but it's a thing some of the happiest and most successful people in this world live by. My mom was the same way, always gave in...

    I hate my little sister. (rant alert)

    Hate to say it, but she's only 11 yrs old. It isn't her fault, yet. I was raised a spoiled little brat, got everything I wanted (material-wise) but never did get proper attention which made me act out probably worse than your little sister. I wasn't taught to not be a brat, needed discipline...

    Scent training

    Thanks guys. My boyfriend actually brought up an idea to try and get him to trail as well as air scent if he doesn't naturally. lol, he said why don't we tie a treat to a string, drag it around the floor, one of us hold him so he can see, then hide it and when it's hidden have him go find it...

    Disturbing, but need to find some sort of answer.

    No, the pen they escaped from was a pen put together inside (living room) to keep them at bay when they needed to be. We've all pretty much come to term with the fact that we'll probably never know what happened.

    Scent training

    That makes sense. What about the typical "smell this and find who it smells like" ? That would work for anyone, dog or not wouldn't it? Hide and seek is a good way to teach them what find it means.....So technically speaking if he knows find it, and we gave him a smell of something that we want...

    Scent training

    Is something I want to do with Kodiak. You never know when you might need your dog to find something, or someone. They don't have that around here, in classes, so I was wondering if anyone has had success teach dogs to find a given scent. How it's done, well. And what is a good age to start at?
