I'm quite stressed right now. Our puppy keeps running away. To give her more outdoor time in the summer, DH made a dog run...which she learned how to escape from every time. She uses things (including the dog run fence itself) to climb up and over the fence. It's very frustrating. Now our...
Did anyone else watch the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet? This is my 4th year to watch. They are sooooo cute. My favorite was Two-Face. I skip the cats.:yucky: Sorry kitty lovers.

These magically produce the following chart:

Friday I go to give the pooches a bath, and notice that Bella has a large mat on her shoulder to under her ear! This dog has NEVER had a mat. And I couldn't work it out :( SO much to my dismay, we would have the shave her.
So Saturday, I do the deed. Leave her legs long, and a full head and a...
Gizmo is such a little card. This morning while eating, she dropped a mouth full of food into her water dish. This became great fun, as she was bobbing for the food(which sits at the bottom of the dish). She was blowing bubbles in the water while grabbing the food! She is very funny.
She went...
I woke up early this morning. It don't need an alarm clock since I have the puppy in a crate. He lets me know when I should get up and take him for a walk. After I walked him, I fed both dogs and took them out again in the rain. Then, I made the mistake of sitting down to drink some coffee...

Our new puppy gets horribly carsick. Today, during a twenty minute ride to the Vet, he vomited and defecated. It was so bad in his crate we had to give him a bath immediately after getting home. He had a similar problem on the trip when we got him but that was an hour and a half. Does anyone...
has an ear problem. I think its ear mites but not positive. I have been using the ear mite stuff on it though and it looks a little better. She keeps shaking her head so I know it has to be bothering her some. Any ideas on home remedies???

The lady just sent me new pics of Gizmo. I emailed to see how she was doing, if potty training was progressing. Here is what she wrote:
I laughed sooo hard. Because this is like Bella. We were camping and she got off the deck loose. Dh went after her, and Bella pranced, and I do mean that...
We went today to the dog pound and found a puppy to adopt. He had an expiration date that was almost up. This will be our first adoption so I hope things go well. I will pick him up tomorrow and bring him home. We found him in Louisville's dog shelter. I saw him on www.Petfinders.com. Our...
While we still miss our Cooper a lot and we could not replace him, we did add joy back into our family. Our DD is the "mom" to sophie. She is a three months old Maltise/Yorkie mix. She is absolutly a ball of energy and enjoyment.

So we weren't going to get a new dog until our other one passed away (we were thinking quite a few years yet...as he is only 3yo), but yesterday morning my friend's dh was outside playing with their ds, they walked down to end of their lane and her dh heard a whimper...someone had left 2 little...
Last night our puppies (7 month old brothers) went outside with the hubs while he was getting some wood. While they were out the puppies must have started to play and chase each other around the yard. At some point they ran out to the road. Cooper was chasing Tucker back home when a minivan...
