while others don't?

both heeling on the left side? one leash in each hand, with a dog on your left and on your right? one leash with a coupler attachment? also, how do you train them to do it the way you want? i am working with a 3 year old boxer and a 3.5 month boxer pup. both do better when they're in...

anyone know a reliable, trustworthy breeder in the Raleigh, NC area?

:( he's doing great tho. the 'rents have him down in Charlotte. i'd gotten it scheduled about 2 months ago, so they took him cause i'm in Raleigh now. won't see him until Saturday. I miss him. but he's doing great. they said the toughest part is keeping him calm and inactive. :)

kinda long and boring. if you watch the first 10 seconds, you get the idea. vince was making a fuss about some peeps cutting down some trees in the back of my neighborhood. the video is after he calmed down a little bit, actually. http://youtube.com/watch?v=K82bdVi-02s

just to get a clearer picture of who we're all talking to. I'm: 24/male/North Carolina. might as well throw in my dog's info, too: 1-year/male/Boxer

looks like he shares a bday with Isla. vince turned 1 year old today. :) no cake though. :(

for volunteer stuff at a local animal shelter. i'm pretty excited about it. :)

let me know if these don't show up...

pardon my ignorance!

or do you take it off?

it's just a 50' rope from Ace Hardware. tied it to his collar so he can just roam the woods and technically still be on leash. it's a big park with a lot of trails through the woods leading down to a lake. he loved it. he's really good at just sticking to the trail. :hail:

I'm interested in volunteering some of my time at a local animal shelter. i'll be moving to a new city soon (Raleigh, NC), so i don't know much about any of the possible places in that area. Does anyone here volunteer? What should I look for in a shelter? What type of work should I expect to...

what can you tell me? brands i should look at? i'm thinking something for day hikes/short weekend trips.

is this normal? Vince gets some zits/pimples on this chin. sometimes they look like they're clearing up, but they've never really gone away. :/

I haven't read much on the subject, but I've heard that it's the recommended thing to do. I've sent in Vince's application to the Humane Society to get fixed. But i want to be sure it's the right thing before I do it. Can you guys break down the pros/cons of fixing your dogs? I know we've...

i understand he gets some criticism from the BC peeps, as evidenced by his wikipedia page. i just read The Dogs of Bedlam Farm and really enjoyed it, so I know about his giving away Homer to a neighbor's family, but don't know anything about his putting a pet down. i've got Katz on Dogs on the...

he's an 11 month old boxer named Vince. he's eating Nutro lamb and rice formula food. he's not sick or anything - he's actually been to the vet recently and he's fine. he just always has pretty loose stools. any suggestions?

this is my boxer, Vince.
