    Conformation/structure critique?

    I managed to get a couple of kind of stacked shots of Wilson and figured I'd post them here and see what some of you guys thought. He's coming up on 19 months old so he is still growing/filling out but yeah. tumblr_o0q2sev9X71ueuefxo2_1280 by darshanabhilashi, on Flickr He did something...

    If you're not sick of seeing Wilson yet...

    ...I actually felt like taking my camera on an outing with me today and I actually like some of these photos a lot :3 DSC_0180 by darshanabhilashi, on Flickr Wilson has excellent mind control skills. They usually go something like "throw ball throw ball throw ball" DSC_0178 by...

    More Wilson hikes

    Took Wilson hiking again today and took some more pictures. Way way way happier with how these ones turned out :) in case anyone is wondering, Sam does still exist, but he's developed mild elbow dysplasia(?) and can't keep up on these hikes anymore. Him and Wilson just go way overboard chasing...

    Loose leash walking

    Not sure if this should go in this forum or the training forum but I need some help with loose leash walking with Wilson. Basically Wilson is a very observant dog and not all that food motivated. He used to be absolutely petrified of anything and everything, but thanks to medications and tons...

    Wilson shenanigans

    Not a ton of pictures because I suck at using a camera. I attempted to salvage these ones but I don't know. Anyways it's been a while since I posted Wilson pictures so here are two from our hike today. DSC_0067 by darshanabhilashi, on Flickr DSC_0064 by darshanabhilashi, on Flickr

    Transitioning to townhouse/apartment living?

    So I'm in the process of moving into a townhouse and obviously dogs will be coming along. Right now I'm living in a house with a yard. Nothing spectacular but it will be a transition moving into a townhouse with no yard. The one thing I am concerned about is both dogs are used to just being...

    A photodump of recents

    I've been lazy about taking pictures with my nice camera but I have some recent and not-so-recent pictures of Sam and Wilson's adventures. I need to bring out the camera more often and work on my skills because they are less than stellar but here goes. Order is from most recent to oldest.

    Brushes?

    So I need some brush suggestions. Wilson is blowing his coat and I want to get all the dead hairs out, but he hates hates hates any sort of metal brush touching him. I'm working on desensitizing him but in the meantime does anyone have any suggestions for a softer brush that will still get a...

    Lazy dogs

    Bought myself a new camera so here's some pictures of Sam and Wilson being lazy dogs Sam is really hard to take pictures of so there's less of him. Any advice on how to improve my pictures is appreciated, I'm just getting used to this thing. Also advice on taking...

    Hey guys, title is pretty self-explanatory but when you go hiking with your dogs, do they wear a backpack? Harness? And if so, which ones do you like?

    Stranger danger and other fear stuff

    I need some opinions and advice on how I can help Wilson overcome his fear of people. He's always been kind of shy with everyone and not really interested in meeting anyone. He isn't aggressive but if someone approaches him you can definitely tell he isn't a fan although he doesn't always...

    Collar suggestions

    Hey guys! Looks like Sam needs another collar. All the ones he has are rubbing a bald spot in his neck/breaking his ruff/both. So I need suggestions. It looks like the ones that are over 3/4 inches wide or thick material break his ruff and make it go all over, so I'm guessing it would need...

    Can Sam have some vibes please?

    He's at the vet's right now getting some tests done. The vet thinks the reason he has trouble eating is because there's something wrong with his throat that's causing him to not be able to swallow properly. It's also caused him to lose quite a bit of weight (at least two pounds), I feel terrible...

    Hardly eating?

    So I have an issue. For a while I've noticed Sam only eats every two to three days, and only if I mixed his food with water. He'll go for the cat's food, but almost NEVER his own, even if it's readily available. I've tried moving his feeding location, what he eats from (regular bowl, raised...
