Anyone have experience with giving their dogs enzyme powders? Trying to get rid of Puggys stank breath. Vet said it wasn't her teeth or gums.

Shitty owners like that piss me off! They're always like, "Oh I wish I had a dog that behaved like yours".. And all I can think is, "I bet your dog wishes it had a better owner.."

And then there are the "Oh he never does that!" owners. Really lady? Because this is the third time your dog has lunged at mine. Your memory must match your training ability..

Well, I won't sit here and play like mine is the very model of doggy discipline.
She's very energetic and wants to go check out other dogs whenever they're around.
Well intentioned, but I can certainly see where her enthusiasm might be mistaken.
The offending blue heeler I was mentioning, however, never gave her the chance to make the wrong impression.

I like the first set. Short hair and very cool looking. Love the blue looking fur with the cool white spots

Oh gawd. Can anyone assist with digging? Or um, throwing oneself at doors and windows?

Was cleaning the garage earlier, and lo and behold, the rescue comes trotting around the the house. He had just finished digging and utilizing the most recent mariana trench under my fence. Tied him up in the garage and let all 3 play while I cleaned the garage, brought them back out to play while I picked up the house and within 5 minutes he was digging a hole on the OTHER side the house, under the fence.

Now, it's bedtime, according to his owner he was an outside dog, but he periodically throws himself at the back door and starts scratching. Or at the window next to the bed.

I put his new rabies tag on him in case he gets out, again, like he did last night, our fault, and I have him tied by the collar on a long rope where he can reach the porch, but not the fence. Have I mentioned how much I HATE tying a dog up?

Any ideas?

when we were checking out that pit yesterday we passed this huge pup who was literally doing backflips at the sight of another dog. paperwork said it was some kind of an airdale mix but it looked for all the world like a doberman with normal ears and a brindle coat. guy said he'd been there the longest
