No one said not to use a harness. What we are saying is that harnesses specifically designed as "no pull" often put pressure on the dog's body to...
I agree with @CaroleC. The "no pull" harnesses put pressure in places that can cause damage to skeletal/muscular growth. And, as with most...
Tell that to Tornado-dog when he prances around with a wrapped werther's caramel he stole from the candy dish for hours and then shoves it into your...
Bat-dog and Moose-dog liked fruit. These two can't be bothered. But these two like candy and drive thrus.
My current don't do veggies. They are both junk food junkies. Bat-dog ate anything and everything except pineapple.
I agree. This is a much easier way to add raw because you don't have to worry as much about getting the full range of nutrients from the raw portion...
As this post is over 6 months old and the OP hasn't been seen since, it is unlikely you will get any response.
@CaroleC yeah, here in the states, loose dogs are a HUGE problem. Unfortunately, too many people get a dog (or cat) and put it outside for life. The...
The problem with mandating breeders to chip has the same limitations as the other breeder legislation: Only the ethical breeders will follow the...

@Lifew/dogs as you are new to this site, I would like to point out that the one real guideline on this site is: Don't be Contemptible It is fine to...
@Pegs please don't use punishment or intimidation (ie, squirting with water, etc). It is no more effective than using positive techniques and can...
Then a different vet is in order. As @CaroleC mentions it could be a problem with the bite. A good vet should be able to see if that is likely an...
@Lifew/dogs I have given her advice on how to fix it. No where did I say she needs to live with it.
That is ACKNOWLEDGING the barking NOT rewarding it. Dogs bark at things as a warning. It is natural and instinctive. Acknowledging such a warning...
I love it! She is so lucky to have found you and you her! It's amazing how well they can track and trail. My dad did tracking with his first...
I don't see anyone suggesting rewarding for over the top barking. And moving the dog into another room and rewarding him IS redirecting. You are...
There's an inherent problem with the command "No". It means a million different things. You may say "no" and mean don't scratch or stop barking or...
