Based on my first post, I obviously have no regard for our military? With the context of the first post, or even the thread, there is really no other way to take it.

That's fine. And a lot of them couldn't do what I do. For all of the " that is offensive" bandwagon jumpers, go back and read the original post. Then read Puck's comment about "letting the warriors loose" as if they are animals. Then understand the sarcasm in my reply when referring to...

The same thing that every single one of us should do: run for office. I hate that we end up thinking our politicians are some sort of superheroes or something. Even down to the local level, we glorify our mayors and councilmen. It is a job. The same as any of the rest of us. The only...

There are plenty of Aussie puppies available in rescues. "Well bred" doesn't necessarily offer you any promise of agility potential, etc. I think those of us that have experienced both sides can tell you that rescued dogs often show this incredible appreciation for their people. It's almost...

This has nothing to do with us being the winner. This has to do with us completely revamping our foreign policy and national security. Security starts at home. (Did you miss the article that says that ~70% of "fake" bombs by TSA inspectors weren't caught in major airports? Did you forget...

I hope that at some point in my lifetime I will see the end of this flawed voting system. Voting for people because you are AGAINST their opponent. Voting for the lesser of two evils, despite not being able to support the candidate. Feeling restricted to two parties. Determining your...

Our canoe trips here (dog-friendly) are about $30/day (up to 13 miles). That includes rental and drop-off. By the way, we're considering getting CFDs (life jackets) for the dogs. I'm an experienced canoer and my girlfriend just follows my lead. However, our friends capsized last time and...

Our war in Iraq has lasted longer (in days) than either World War I or World War II. Financially, it will cost: -10 times as much as the first Gulf War -30% more than Vietnam -More than double the cost of the Korean War -Twice as much as World War I -$400,000 per troop -$12,500,000,000...

Sigh.

Have you tried any of the West Paw zogoflex toys?

Rescue.

The sound was unbearable. I can't believe people could do that. When will we realize that war is not the answer? That poor puppy--and think of the number of PEOPLE that have faced similar fates.

Most of this might be BS, but here goes: Some dogs (both of ours) DO realize when they have damaged something or chewed on something that isn't "theirs". However, that doesn't mean that they understand the concept of punishment. If you think about it, it's actually a fairly complex thought...

I love it. I got up to 37 but that didn't last for very long. :)

He walks in front of you because he never learned to walk next to you. He ignores commands because he never learned them. He jumps because he never learned not to jump. He goes through doors first because he never learned to wait. He licks their hands because he is unsure of him self. He...

It definitely isn't cheap. We had Herschel on The Honest Kitchen's Embark and we saw noticeable improvement from Canidae within 4-5 weeks. It wasn't anything remarkable, but his coat was glossier.

I posted this in the other thread: The food appears to be a dehydrated diet, similar to The Honest Kitchen. 10lbs of the The Honest Kitchen's Embark is $73.00 and makes 43lbs of fresh food. Thus, 11lbs for $75 isn't that outrageous at all. It is expensive, but instead of a 70lb. dog, what...

Did the forum go down for a while today?

Nala will never jump on me. Anyone (and everyone) else is fair game. I think it's because I've never let her do it unless I was playing and specifically took her paws in my hands. She's actually great about sitting and waiting for people to give her attention when they first show up...
