I feel compelled to share my story about having to put my best friend for eleven years, a 29 pound female lhasa Apso to sleep. I bought her from a respectable breeder when she was six months old and weighed 22 pounds. She was big for her breed and people thought she was a Tibetan terrier.. She...

I was going to get Muttley some more marrow bones, but they were out of them. However, I found a bag of beef hearts for $1.39/lb, which is not much more than the bones, and appear to be 100% lean meat. I have tried cutting them in small pieces, and also giving him the large strips. He loves them...

I just joined the group and wanted to take some time and intoduce myself!

His name was Bruno and he was a Yorkie 9 years old. Yorkies are prone to pancreatitis and that's what he had. He got it several months ago and was so sick. We loved him so much so we tried very hard to save him. It cost $1,200 but he rebounded quickly. He did well for about 6 months then stopped...

My lover died of hiv related illness recently. He had a little yorkie named Rooney. On his death bed he made me promise to take care of him after his death. I said of course! After he died, I took Rooney out into the country and dropped him off on the side of the road because I hated that little...

I made the comment that if something happens to MY dog, not HERS, that I would like to get a Goldie. NO, NO, NO, they shed too much. Yeah, right, she wanted a small dog that didn't shed, and came home from the shelter with a 70# lab/rott mix. So much for how women think. Anyway, she says I...

Just a little curious because i feed Oskar my Lab home made natural food and have done so for years. What dop you feed your dog?

I give my dogs flat strips of rawhide. A lab/rott mix and a Pembroke. The lab wolfs hers down, and the corgi will chew on his, or until the lab sneaks in and steals it. It's the only thing they fight about, and I have to watch the sneaky one because they mix it up pretty good. I try to give...

Hi, My old (16yrs) border collie farm dog, has a pink-red lump on the inside/edge of her upper eyelid. i am rather worried due to her age and deteriorating condition. It would be around 5mm by 2-3mm and is slightly unsightly. Could this be a tumour? All the other websites say styes but hers...

Since frequenting some of the pet groups I've learned that the thinking on vaccination schedules has changed. I'm wondering what those here think of the usual puppy vaccination schedule (8, 12, 16, etc.) Do most still follow that or do they wait until they are older and do less frequent...

Hi all, I've been looking at getting a bugg (boston terrier/pug cross) but I've been told this cross breed needs more attention than I can give it. This sounds a little hokey to me. I'm a single guy who works full time so five days out of the week I'm out of the house for 8 hours. I can...

Hi, Some good news, for those that have been following my posts. As you may recall Bear had to go back to the foster home. Luckily he has been adopted by an older, retired, couple that know his background and are able to provide the quiet environment that he needs. They can also spend more time...

Okay, I know I asked this before, but I'm still not sure. I feed my dogs morning and night because they like it, it fits my schedule, and mainly it avoids empty stomach vomiting they both get on empty stomachs. I have portions that I serve them, and don't vary a lot. Some days, they wolf it...
