We recently found out that Khaki (my Aussie) will herd the Beagle pups. All along when she would be playing with them, I noticed she would always run after the one that would "break away from the pack" and block it's path. It's like she knew she was supposed to do something with 'em, but didn't...

My Mom just called and the puppy that she adopted from me just swallowed one of her earplugs that she sleeps with at nights....She said it was the foam kind. She said she saw him with it, but before she could get it out of his mouth he had swallowed it. I told her to call the vet right now...

Both Khaki and Lucy have swollen Lymph nodes on their faces, about an inch below their eyes, on both sides....I took them to the vet this morning, and they took a needle and drew some of the stuff out. They said there was nothing serious going on, and that it looked to be some sort of allergy...

Can anyone explain these behaviors in Khaki....she's my 1 1/2 year old Australian Shepherd....Just some odd things I've noticed. 1. After eating, she chews on one particular pull toy for about 10-15 minutes.. This is the only time she ever touches that toy...Is she cleaning her teeth or...

Lucy had her puppies last night. She had 10 but we lost 1. Lucy and the surviving 9 puppies seem to be doing great. All this excitement just 3 weeks after taking her in as she showed up in my yard with the large male mix breed... Okay, I have an appointment at my vet on Friday to have them...

Hey everyone, been a while since I've logged on. Anyway, this dog along with a female Beagle showed up in my yard about 2 weeks ago. They didn't have collers, so no id's. I posted a bunch of found flyers in my area but never got any responses. Also called all the vets and shelters in my area...

My girlfriend frequently brings my dogs treats. Well, the last time she got them some, she got the VitaKraft yogurt drops. They are the choco ones and the ingredients actually has cocoa as an ingredient. I've always known that chocolate is poison to a dog, but would a small amount of cocoa...

Just curious if anyone does and how you like the service? I need to get internet access at my house, but no high speed connections are offered in my area. The joys of living in South Carolina. Anyway, DSL is not even available to me. I have Dish Network and I'm looking into their satellite...

She's a Husky/Alaskan Malamute mix, mostly Husky. The Husky shelter is located in my home town, which is how I found her. The only thing that I'm kinda nervous about is how she and my Aussie would get along. I've researched the Husky and Malamute breeds as I've always liked the 2, and found...

So, when do you change from puppy food to dog food?

This wasn't set up. I just happened to look over and Khaki was laying there with her paw up on the door frame "pointing" to where she had chewed it a couple of days before. I'm still surprised I was able to get the camera and take the pic before she moved..

So I went home from work earlier to check on BH and Khaki, give them fresh water, etc... Khaki is an inside dog but stays in the pen during the day while I'm at work. Anyway, it had been raining, I pull into my driveway, and around my house comes Khaki. She had dug out of her pen and was...

Why do some dogs eyes "glow" different colors than others when light hits them? I'm talking about like at night when you shine a flashlight towards them. For example, Khaki's eyes glow red. BH's eyes glow a greenish yellow. Does it have something to do with the breeds? The flash in...

Okay, I live next door to my parents and they keep Khaki for me during the day until she heals from being spayed (gotta keep that incision clean). Anyway, everyday after work when I go get her, she attacks my feet. It's not aggresive as she won't lay a tooth on my hands, but she will grab the...

I thought I'd start a new thread. I mentioned the biting thing in another thread, but I'm having other minor issues that I can't figure out how to solve. #1. Khaki (5 month old Aussie) likes to play bite, a lot....Sometimes it's just a nibble, but when she get wound up, the bites are hard...

Yep, I taught Khaki to speak with both a hand signal and voice last night with only 3 treats. After the 3rd treat, she got it everytime immediately with no delay. I worked with her this morning again and she got it everytime... I've never trained a dog that can learn as fast as she can...

Hey, I'm asking for a minute of your time. My band (Havoc Din) uploaded a song into the Spencers "Be A Dirtbag Band" contest. Prizes are worth more than $10,000 and they play the top 8 songs in all Spencers stores across the U.S. daily for a year. Please take a minute, follow the link below...

Well, Khaki is now 4 months old. She is becoming very vocal, makes all kinds of noises/sounds. She'll look up at me and it's like she's really trying to talk to me and tell me something. The way her mouth moves it's like she's trying to say words, it's the funniest thing...And she has started...

I may be over reacting as I'm just now learning that Aussie's have a lot of eye problems. I've noticed that my little girl, Khaki (red merle aussie), has one pupil that is a always just a bit larger than the other. Not noticable unless looked at close. The eye with the larger pupil also has a...

I've already chatted with one Australian Shepherd owner, but looking for more inside info on the breed. I researched the Aussie's for a few months before finally getting one, but I'd like to hear some owners stories and or comments on this wonderful breed..... Khaki is 13 weeks old, born on...
