    Seperation issues...

    Just a suggestion ... If your dog likes the ice and snow, you might want to get a plastic bottle of water (Poland Springs, Dasani or whatever) and freeze it. Take the label off and give it to him the frozen bottle when he's in the crate. My pup LOVES this - as it defrosts, he licks the...

    Playing a little too rough - should I get in the middle?

    It's definately just play, just a lot of hopping around and chasing, and then it progresses when they start playing "king of the dog bed" (even though there's three dog beds, one dog will hunker down in one while the other tries to evict him). It's amazing how different advice can be, as...

    Playing a little too rough - should I get in the middle?

    Yes Casper is the white one. :) He's an awesome pup!! I have started stepping in when Koda gets too rough, pushing him to the ground and yelling 'no' (I was told that the pack leader will pin a rambunctious pup to the ground and growl at him). He just doesn't get it, though. He's still...

    Barking problem

    Thanks for the info. He gets lots of exercise - at least two long walks a day, about 35 minutes. He also gets 3-4 other quick potty walks, so that's a total of 5-6 times out a day. He also has a 9 month old Jack Russell to play with, and those two go at it for hours. I will definately...

    Barking problem

    Hello all, Just a little info about my situation: I have two dogs. The new puppy "Koda" is a four month old Brittany Spaniel male. I've had him for about two weeks. He's a good boy, seems very trainable, caught on to house breaking real fast, and knows some basic commands. I also have a...
