    Naturally Loyal Dogs. Is there such a thing?

    I would agree with herding dogs being very loyal and velcro dogs. However I disagree on the idea that they are less affectionate. Although my experience is with border collies, I find them incredibly affectionate and loyal. Herding dogs were bred over centuries to work with man and they crave...

    scratching poodle

    Look up Dermacton on the net, I get mine off ebay. It is wonderful for itching, fungal skin conditions etc and gives relief instantly. Our dogs stop scratching within minutes of putting it on them - all their doggy friends use it too.

    German Shephard in my face! HELP

    Is this only when you are putting your shoes on? My border collie does the same thing, but will back off when told - but usually it just makes me laugh.

    Arnica Arnica is a great homepathic temp treatment for sprains and bruises Richard. You can get if from good health stores. 1 tiny tablet you put under your or the dogs tongue (which disolves fast). The quicker you use it when an injury occurs the faster it seems to work. I used to do...

    Anyone give thier dogs glucosamine?

    Yeah, Gil my border puppy kept going lame on his back end as a pup - as soon as I brought him home after he fell off a step. I gave him glucosamine for about 2 months and he improved very quickly and stopped going lame. He is now a few months over two and never goes lame. Highly recommend it!

    Could this be Mange? Or just some type of bites?
