  • Wait till your kid throws up and it's a mad dash on who can get to it first.

    Dogs can be so disgusting!

  • I will not mention what dogs will try to do with the babies dirty nappies…
    Make sure to put them up where the dog can't get them...or under the sink in a locked container.
    My great neice came over last weekend with 16 mo old Baby Joseph James...
    She doesn't have dogs.
    Let me just say, it was not pretty!

  • this topic is so gross! LOL…..

  • Yep - veering off topic, but because Capt Jack's mom is due anytime . . . the inevitable is bound to happen. Unless, someone gives her a heads up to take extra care Jack doesn't get the chance to indulge in the "gross". Let us know, IF you can find the time after you deliver, Jack's mom. From my own experience, poor little Jack will be put on the back burner for quite

  • Dogs are the clean up crew of the household kingdom, be it toys or garbage,

  • Yes, its not too early to get the trashcans locked up.
    However, you will only "forget" to p/u the items once.
    Laugh!
    The bad news is the dirty "items" can make the dog very sick.
    Running to the vet sick.
    The plastic alone is scary, what that can do to the internal workings of a b's tummy.

    Just wanted to give an update on my experience and hope that it helps others in the future. So I did get the puppy and have had her now for about 6-7 weeks. She is doing AWESOME! Shes completely healthy, and at 14-15 weeks, is incredibly obedient. For instance, I take her to the dog park, and she recalls every time I say "Nani come." There are also some agility obstacles in the park which I'm starting to train her on and she does really well with simple things like walking up, down, sitting, staying, gonig through the tunnels, etc… When I give her her food, I make her sit, stay, and give me a fist bump before she can eat, and I'll switch the order up every time. I then say "now you can have it" and then she eats. Its to the point now, where she is in the kitchen, and I'll go to my room, come back in 2-3min, and she is still sitting by the food and hasn't even touched it yet until I give the command. She is doing fantastic! Fantastic with other dogs, fantastic with kids, adults, everything. She doesn't have a tendency anymore either now to chew on things she's not supposed to and when she does get the urge, she looks for her toys. Not sure if this is just because the breed itself is very intelligent, or the breeder, or a mix of both but I couldn't have asked for a better puppy, especially the way she is now at the age of 14-15 weeks. My allergies also do very well around her whcih is HUGE! Not sure if I just got lucky or what, but she is great a puppy for how obedient she is already, her compassion, and her behavior. Just simply amazing :-)

    All of mine are having a longer and larger shed right now than is usual. I think it because it has been unusually hot and humid for a longer time than normal.

    @tanza: Right now the top winning dogs are Tris… Klassy and Blade (think that is his call name...) good point Pat…it wasn't really a few years ago! Tris have been doing great ever since Tootsie's career really took off. I was thinking back to Toots instead of thinking of who is out there right now.

    Hi Quercus! Tano's breeder was Maripat Webber of Etukon. I believe both her siblings went on to be show dogs. Tano took after her mom as far as coloring…being the only red and white of the litter. ^_^ I'll push up Tano's appointment for her physical and request the full thyroid thing. If this is all related to thyroid I definitely want to get it looked into asap! Thank you for pointing out that it could all be related! She really develops a thick woolly undercoat in the fall/winter. You'd think the house wasn't near 70 degrees all winter! If her hair was a little longer I could possibly clean it up and felt with it--she sheds that much! :D
