Hey i'm back. Finally got over the heartbreak of having to give the girls back to thier owner. I really thought he had dumped them with us and was hoping so but no such luck(for us, the girls were ecstatic when they saw him again). We just adopted the sweetest little guy at the Humane...

They were the hit of the neighborhood! We must have walked about five miles with them tonight, it was a blast! Kaya the Fairy Princess (Envy ate her crown ) Luna was a Hula Girl, she LOVED her costume LOL

We took Kaya for her checkup on Monday, all had been going well until that morning, when, as we were getting her leash on we noticed her stomach wound had filled up over night and was the size of a baseball. The Vet said since the drains didn't work its time to go in surgicly and repair the...

He had just gotten my email about the attack. He said it is the second time Kaya has been attacked at a dog park, the last time was two pit bulls who attacked her. He is relieved to know she is doing great on her meds etc, and asked how, aside from that, everything was going. He reassured me...

Would I be considered crazy if I made our third bedroom into a bedroom just for the dogs? I mean, the cats have the second living room as the "Cat room" with all sorts of cat trees, so I was thinking i'd do the third bedroom up like a little girls' bedroom for Kaya and Luna, get them matching...

Long story short Kaya was attacked at the dog park by a mastiff. She has two large cuts (about an inch each) and is starting to shake. The shaking goes for a few seconds where she sort of tenses up for a second then relaxes. No vets are open being that its sunday. I have cleaned and bandaged...

So we are slowly becoming introduced to the girls' "quirks" I say quirks since its not THEIR fault they weren't trained properly. They have selective dog aggression. Little yippy dogs apparently set them off(they haven't attacked any, they just bark and growl and try to get close to them, I...

If you could have every animal you wanted, as many as you wanted, without being realistic about what their needs are etc (pretend you live in a fantasy world where everything is already done the instant it needs doing) and it doesn't cost anything, all you have to do is enjoy them, what animals...

Isn't it funny that Luna and Kaya came with four dog beds, and an entire backpack full of stuff not to mention two bags of good quality food, food and water bowls, numerous collars and leashes....and still I can find things that I *need* to buy. Need as in "Well wouldn't it be sooo cute?!"...

A good site for dog clothing that is't more expensive than my own that will fit a 125lb doggy? I'd like to get the girls some winter clothing since Reno can get really cold in the wintertime. Namely booties, and some sweaters and jackets.

Luna and Kaya are slow to respond to commands, they do them, and they are quiet and peaceful, they don't get hyper and flip out, so needing them to respond quickly isn't really an issue, but still. If it ever became an issue i'd like to know they will respond in a timely manner, IE if they...

Wow, so....the man came by today with his girlfriend. He brought two of the most stunning Great Danes i've ever seen. They are obviously extremely well cared for and loved, though Luna could stand to gain a few pounds. We talked some and then he started bringing their things in from the car...

So....it turns out we very possibly will be adopting two purebred great danes. We were thisclose to adopting a bloodhound this morning when Patrick turned to me and said "I know he is big and goofy and adorable, but you want a great dane and I think we should hold out for it" So we left animal...

Buy a toy stuffed great dane and walk it around with a leash. I'd be labeled as "That crazy cat lady who drags a stuffed toy around behind her everywhere on a leash" but thats ok I guess. I went to the shelter, got up early, was there 45 minutes before they opened just to make *SURE* I...

So long as everything goes well I should be able to adopt the dog I want tomorrow. Problem is they told me over the phone he is extremely underweight and I need to put weight on him asap. I'm not sure how to do that while keeping it all healthy for him? Any suggestions? Also, hes half Great...

Ok so there is a Great Dane/Lab Mix at animal control on their lost list. If his owners don't show up by monday at closing he will go up for adoption on Tuesday. Hes absolutly beautiful, i'm starting to get my hopes up he might go up for adoption, if he does i'll be camped out in front of...

I ran across this today http://sacramento.craigslist.org/pet/99946206.html Since I have cats should I just refer her to the local Mastiff Rescue or is there a proven way to train dogs not to be agressive with other animals? I was thinking maybe neutering would help bunches? I would be really...

A lot of times I have seen on Petfinder a dog that has stolen my heart, but then it turns out they are at a rescue that screens people a little too well. I'm all for making sure the dogs are going to go to a good home, but a lot of those requirments are over the top. Almost every sigle one...

There's a gorgeous Mastiff for adoption in a shelter 3 hours away. Its in a large town so I know if I don't get there at opening he will be gone. Question is...should I? I had been hoping for a great dane, but this Mastiff's eyes are just sooo soulful. Then again hes 9 months old and if he...

As i'm perusing a site that lets owners post their dogs for rehoming I am struck again and again by the reasons they give for giving the dog up. "I just don't have time for it any more" translation: "I have time for it but the novelty of owning a dog has worn off and I don't want to deal...
