    Help - unable to post pictures/attachments

    Thank you @amberdyan! I've tried using the "manage attachments" attach file option below the reply box when I'm replying/creating a thread, and I've also tried uploading to flicker and pasting the img code into my post, but permissions are denied no matter which way I try. I would definitely...

    Help - unable to post pictures/attachments

    I tried sharing recent pictures of Roscoe in the Dog Pictures and Pet Photos forum and below the message my "Posting Rules" box (below a thread I tried to start) stated that "you may not post attachments" and I can't post pictures at all. Is there a minimum number of posts I must reach before I...

    Saying hello from NW Florida

    Thank you. He most certainly has a big, spunky attitude. lol It's part of his charm. He certainly keeps us on our toes and entertained each and every day. I've been trying to post pics, but have not been able to. I've tried getting help, but so far to no avail. :( As soon as I can...

    I "may not post attachments"

    How to keep coat from drying out

    Thanks blackrose, I'll look into getting some fish oil and adding that to his food. Sometimes we're able to get away with just brushing him off, but between playing with our son's doberman (who slobbers all over him), and his propensity for getting as grimy as possible, it amazes me just how...

    How to keep coat from drying out

    Roscoe is ALL BOY and he LOVES getting really dirty! As a consequence, he gets a bath at least once a week, and sometimes two or three times per week. Our concern is that we're going to dry his fur (and skin) out too much. He's a terrier mix, so he doesn't really have smooth, soft, fur to...

    Need help stopping barking at night

    Your last sentence had me cracking up! We're starting to practice this, but so far not very successfully. I've had a fan in our room for the past couple of nights, and so far so good, but we still need to work on a quiet/settle command. I appreciate everyone's suggestions! :)

    I got a fan for our room that I'm going to try tonight. Fingers crossed that helps.

    Need help stopping barking at night

    I like quick and easy, especially in the middle of the night! I'm a heavy sleeper, so I'm never very cheerful or patient when woken up. :lol-sign:

    Need help stopping barking at night

    Thank you milos_mom. I hadn't really noticed it so much before, but he does bark during the day when someone comes home, although not as much as he does at night (or maybe I'm just more awake and alert myself and able to quiet him more quickly). I think part of the cause for his higher level...

    Need help stopping barking at night

    We currently have a full house (people and dogs) and various people working/coming and going at all hours of the day and night. Since my son has moved back in with us, Roscoe's been sleeping in our bedroom, initially in his crate, but he's been sleeping in bed with us for about a month now. The...

    What's your standard puppy training itinary?

    This is a great list!! Thank you for putting it together. I've become a huge fan of kikopup. She breaks it down and makes it look so easy.

    Emergency recall & release cues

    I'm having a hard time deciding what words I want to use for emergency recall and release cues. I don't want to use a word like "okay" for my release because I use that too frequently in everyday life/conversations. We're using "come" for standard recall, but I have yet to decide on a good...
