    I Need Help!!!!

    To be truly honest, I really don't appreciate your tone here.... I did not ask for your judgement on the situation of his escaping a couple of times, I asked for any ideas about the come command. I am not going to explain how he got out, that has been taken care of, and It's not the issue...

    I Need Help!!!!

    I could really use some suggestions to help me with Roush. I haven't been able to afford to take him to a formal obediance class yet, but I have worked with him every day as far as commands go... I work with him and Steeda for at least a half hour everyday. They both learn very quickly and...

    Puppy found by dumpster

    Just an update....I have great news, I'm going to be able to keep Steeda after all. My dad and his wife have been asking me to move in with them for awhile now, so that someone is with my dad during the day (he is very ill). I havent agreed because I too have a myriad of health problems and we...

    Puppy found by dumpster

    Thanks everybody for your kind words. The puppies were nowhere to be found, and believe me I looked. I spent most of the day yesterday calling every local pet store, and animal hospital in the area, no one has reported a dog matching her description as missing. I took her to the vet yesterday...

    Puppy found by dumpster

    I was taking a detour behind two stores in Parma Heights, Ohio (the detour allows you to avoid traffic and takes you behind both stores). There are dumpsters behind one of the stores, as I drove by I noticed something black in a pile of white (garbage bags & snow). It didnt "feel" right, so I...

    Am I just too concious about it?

    Roush did the same thing, when he was that age , he'll be 7 months on thursday. He asked to go outside too, he would walk over to the door and hit it his leash with his nose...I leave his leash wrapped around the door. He was going outside so often and peeing every single time. I actually...

    What is my baby?

    The attitude/ temperment sure sounds like a pitt... they are total goofballs. His face is bit elongated, pitts have more of a thick sqaure head and jaw. from the shape of his head and placement of his eyes Im thinking maybe rottie lab mix. Rotties can be real goofballs too. I had one with my...

    Please help!

    If the kennel cough continues you can go back to your vet. Poush had kennel cough when I rescued him. My vet gave him antibiotics and a cough suppresant, which helped a lot. The advice about keeping him away from other dogs is great advice, even though I was told that senior dogs are less...

    Penis discharge

    When Roush was in the vet for a recent visit, I had brought up the question of the discharge because I noticed he was having some. I had a Male Rottie before and he didnt have a problem with that, but she said that some male dogs just get it and that it is normal and okay. However if there...

    How to best counter BSL

    It's a very tough call all the way around. I dont think bsl is the answer. "Bad" people will always want to own "mean" dogs, even if they are obtained or kept illegally. Banning the breed only makes it that much more inticing to the people that shouldn't own them to begin with. The thing...

    Collars and dog perceptions

    People are going to think what they want about your dog no matter what....Roush has a thick black leather collar that alternates small, dull, cone-like spikes with grommets, and he also has a brown suede collar with black bones on it. I normally get the same reaction from both collars...that...

    Ladies! Another question.

    As far as the ring thing goes, if they had been together for that long it should have been talked about how they were going to pick out a ring, that way she could have expresed to him that she wanted to help pick it out. so I think that was a mistake on both of their parts. Returning it though...

    "pit bull attack" story

    Thats basically it...it just seems like they are the scapegoat of all bad things dog. Im just tired of it. It didnt take one day for this bad rep to happen and it's not going to resolve itself in a day. Letters arent going to solve the problem, I'm not stupid I realize this. Odds are good...
