    So I don't own a cocker..

    During one of my son's soccer games, the ref walked up to me and told me I had a beautiful "Weimer-hammer". I told him that Jasmine was not a "Weimer-hammer" but a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, and he told me that he owned "Weimer-hammers" all his life and this was a full blooded "Weimer-hammer"...

    Upset with Vet, Need advice

    I just paid a behaviorist/trainer $800 for 3 in-home sessions. He then offers weekly group sessions for the life of the dog. He charges $550 for first dog and $250 for each additional dog. If your behaviorist/trainer is highly qualified and can remedy your dogs' problems, I believe the $700...

    My dog likes to "suck".

    Jasmine is two, and she still sucks her teddy. When she get tired, she picks it up and carries it around with her, much like Linus and his blanket. I love it and find it so endearing! We have been through quite a few teddies though, as sometimes she'll get a wild hair and will shred them to...
