Anymore when I hear people railing about how they feed their dog only "grain free" food and that's what every dog should eat, I look around to make sure there aren't any sharp objects nearby. I don't have anything against grain free foods and have fed them, but the people doing the preaching...

Roxie (my parents')- my Mom's fattening her back up again (up to 19 lbs from 15-16), but she's still thinner than when she first came to live with them (28 lbs)

Bus

Poor little "leather flap" ears It's both cute and scary when she decides she's up for a little run! O.O

Had to document the old fart's 18th birthday on 1/10- not too cold out so she even putted around the yard a bit in celebration :) The tribulations of being 2 dogs long and 1 dog wide... The yard was pretty soggy

Min pin or Boston? A coworker of mine has a min pin/Boston mix, and he has a croup and tailset just like Gusto's- he's smaller though. Have seen individuals of both breeds with similar tails, so I'd guess maybe either :). Would expect to see more substance in a boston mix, and potentially B/T...

Took these in August, while I was taking pics of my Mom's foster kitten (who's since become her foster fail!)

Annie has had 1 "episode" of IVDD in her neck which caused her severe general pain and lameness in just 1 front leg, and 1 episode (years later) which didn't seem as painful, but caused more significant neuro signs, stumbling when she walked, etc. The first time I remember thinking she was never...

About 8 months ago, a man brought a puppy (pit mix?) he'd found into my work to be scanned for a microchip. She was super scared but sweet, thin, and looked like she might have had demodex. Avoided eye contact with pretty much every person who interacted with her. I was giving the man a list of...

I brought Bus home just for the night to see how he was in a house (housetrained? ok with cats? kids? etc), and once he ignored my cats, tolerated Annie being mean to him, greeted my 5 yr old cousin like they were old friends, and took himself for a swim, I knew I'd regret it forever if I didn't...

I live in MD, roughly 15 minutes southeast of the edge of Baltimore City. I would say that I have seen a larger than desirable number of pit bulls and pit mixes that are sort of sketchy and/or fearful- granted, many of those are encountered in a setting (vet office) which tends to make dogs...

To be a bit more specific, my preference for breed of my next dog is another APBT (or mix), but I wouldn't entirely count out dogs of other breeds if they were the right fit. I'm looking for an active pet, have missed having a bigger dog to bike with. Ideally, the dog would be a candidate for...

Looking for anecdotal information on change in temperament in dogs from puppy to adult, ie: if a puppy is super wiggly, stupid happy, what are the odds of them growing up to have a less outgoing temperament? Or vice versa? Also curious about drive levels, what are the odds that a drivey pup will...

Welactin has a higher concentration of EPA/DHA, but is more expensive, so it balances out more or less I think. If you have a local vitamin store chain, recommend going there and seeing what sort of "membership discounts/bargains" they offer. When I had bigger dogs and couldn't get discounted...

Wanted to add that I never did agility with her (some backyard stuff for fun when she was young), we did other stuff just to keep her busy that would stress the back/neck similarly or more. Searching for ball on rocks at 12 Diving for the frisbee at 15! (this was after her...
