Menopause comes from two Greek words that mean "month" and "to end," and the current medical definition of menopause means exactly the same: the absence of menstruation for twelve months. Menopause can occur between late thirties and late 50s, and not a single woman can avoid this period....

"http://newsbiscuit.com/article/kennel-club-official-breeds-to-include- werewolf-2" Blame the owners NOT the werewolf! The British Kennel Club has raised eyebrows in the Dog Showing world after announcing that the Werewolf is finally going to be recognised as an official dog breed, following...

I really need a lot of successful advice. My dog eats small amounts of her own feces after she poops. I have to continually be with her when she goes to stop this gross behavior. I have tried, through my vet, a product called "Forbid" and it did not work with her.

A few weeks ago I posted about a bureaucratic screw-up in which it looked like City Hall was going to make me take Cubbe in, again, to the veterinarian to update a rabies shot. Today her tag arrived in the mail with no inconvenience or screw-up at all. I love the pedantic language: This is...

If you've been struggling with destructive dog chewing, know that your dog is capable to learn not to chew your stuff. All you have to do is put a little bit of effort in re-educating your dog. 1. Manage Your Possessions: Just like you would baby-proof a home to protect your new baby, you need to...

I don't know if this gear is the right size but the prices are great. You could be the only person running agility courses outside during the cold snap: http://www.sleddogcentral.com/classifieds/equipforsale.asp#Pettyjohn -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - ...

Took the dogs to a lovely park for their daily hike. Walked the (shoveled!) perimeter path, and was almost back to the parking lot when I saw a fuzzy dog headed our way. No human. No leash. So I make my guys sit off to the side of the path, and hope for the best. Didn't get it. Mr. Dog...

Tuck got an email last weekend from the Special Education teacher who heads up the Children Reading to Dogs program. Last week, a kindergarten student was brought over to the elementary, because he won't talk. It's not that he CAN'T talk. He certainly does at home. At home he's a cornucopia of...

Like so many others, I love dogs (especially miniature Dachshunds). I live in New York City where the dog is revered. But they can definitely be hard to train. Loving your little puppy (or adult) in the right way is all about proper obedience, training, feeding, grooming and exercise. I have a...

The 6:00 news had a short clip on the Vick dogs that are at BF. One was pacing the fence line, not connecting with the volunteer/staff member who was in the run. Marcie popped up and stared at the TV and growled at it! She's a funny puppy! -- Janet Boss www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com

Obedience training (which includes housebreaking) is such a HUGE part of owning a dog! I should know, as I have experienced the getting up in the middle of the night outings to make sure the puppy relieves its bladder in the middle of the night (or at 6am, whichever is harder for you). Positive...

I heard on the news tonight that the dogs belonging to Vick will be going to a sanctuary to learn how to play with toys and become socialized, etc. It was also mentioned that Vicks donated 1 million dollars to the care of the dogs for the rest of their lives. I had not heard that before, but it...

We have all heard tales of strange people living in Montana; the Unabomber, the freedom militias, the poor sods stuck in the Federal Witness Protection Program. I assure you the majority of people living in Montana are friendly, polite, are reasonably sane, and will go out of their way to lend...

On thursday pirate went back to the vet for them to check the status of his legs. Mike took him, which was unfortunate but I had meetintg I was running and couldn't attend. Apparently pirate is doing awesome (I can tell that by his rambunctious behavior) with the elbow VERY well seated in the...

Horrible name. But it looks like this is what used to be in the bottles of Nature's Miracle? Makes some sense, since others here have reported that Nature's Miracle no longer works as well as it used to. I'm almost out of my gallon bottle bought ages ago, and am wondering if I need to invest...

Now that Kali is finished with pregnancy and puppy duty, she is finally putting on a bit of weight. She arrived at around 35 pounds, and is now just above 50 pounds. It appears she could stand to gain about another 10 pounds still, as she remains a bit boney. And at 3 1/2 months, Pinga weighs...
