Kiba is our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He has been a wonderful dog, although he has some health issues. He has had knee surgery for a luxating patella, he has herniated a disk in his back and was on crate rest for months last year, and suffers with allergies. My husband calls him "Steve...

Has anybody used the relatively new dental vaccine with their dogs? Sighthounds are known for developing plaque and my vet mentioned this vaccine when he was here today (after telling me how many dogs need dentals...). I was wondering whether anybody has experience with it.

The squirtgun tip worked GREAT! I have been very consistent about not allowing any humping at all, which has slowly but surely had an effect, but there have been a couple of times he hasn't gotten the message, and the mere sight of "Mr. Squirty" was enough to make him sit his butt right down....

I put all the clips together and did some editing. Here is the result (10 minute movie). Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0lerqY8paU Paul and the Muttster www.youtube.com/user/PaulAndMuttley

I just uploaded a couple more video clips to You Tube: MowingMuttley49: I took this clip while mowing the high grass, weeds, and even small trees that have grown up in the three weeks or so since I last did that. Muttley really helped a lot by pulling the mower up the hill while I pushed...

Although I think this belongs more in .health, but I'm posting in .behaviour too, because it is a behaviour, too, sort of. I've been raw-feeding my 3 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Kiba for three months now. We started this because he suffers awful allergies, although both the vet and...

Michael was never ready before. His message and methods were never fully formed. Like Jack on "Lost" he didn't know what he was supposed to do... Until now. http://dogtv.com/jackie-runs-the-mile/ "The General" and his soldier girl Jackie Brown are on the March to secure Battlefield L.A. to make...

Looks like a dog in a condom to me! http://www.activedogs.com/fleeceraincoat.html

Hi, Anyone doing this and any specific pitfalls to look for (other than obviously the dog has to run straight and either leash-free or slack leash). I couldnt go at 'speed' with Cash (he's not allowed to) but if I just lazed along, it would work? Start with Charlotte jogging him on leash and...

I haven't seen a new post here in days. My news server had some problems, and I wonder if it is still having them. This is just a test post to see if I am getting messages from the group.

My 5 month old puppy has serious separation anxiety. We've tried all sorts of things; everything from crating (which was a disaster) to letting him roam in the living room. He was doing OK for a little while, and now all of a sudden he's trying to chew his way through the front door. It's not like...

For some time now I've been trying to get Muttley to bring me things such as chewed up old bones, paper plates, batteries, sticks, and other items on the floor. For some reason, he often gets very excited and he jumps around and scratches himself and frantically looks for something to pick up,...

Here's my question: Should you stop your dog from humping other dogs? Let the dogs work it out among themselves? Remy has been known to be quite the little humper when playing with his dog buddies, and I get conflicting opinions on what to do, depending on who I ask. He was neutered at 6...

Anybody know what the "mirror method" of dog training is? http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=pkPNa4DBFHI

Here are the latest clips of Muttley's adventures. Enjoy! Muttley in the fenced area and a 360 degree pan of the woods around the meadow at the top of the hill behind my house, about 60 feet above the road: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SNhWe7v_Lw Muttley the Canine Weed Whacker. Enjoying a...
