I don't have a negative view of the UK, just want to comment on the differences. Mostly that we aren't upset when dogs meet even if they don't...
I think Americans and English have somewhat different expectations of our dogs behavior with other dogs. When in town and on suburban streets...
I get leave it, or drop it. How do you teach the dog to pick up things they are allowed to (Toys, Birds, Balls etc.) but not things they aren't...
Our pup Cooper used to occasionally play in the water bowl but I think she out grew it. We do keep a large (3 gal.) bowl on the back deck that is...
I guess I'm a little "old school" about stealing. If I catch our pup in the act of taking something, I will definitely tell her "NO"...
Our dogs have always slept in the same room with us. They were crated there when they were young, but now have the run of the house, but...
Just curious about the process in the UK. In the US, it is common to place a deposit on pups even before they are born. Here for Labs...
Tilly, our 10 yr old has always been good at catch. One of the indoor games she came up with, is to stay at the top of the stairs while I stand...
We have two Chocolate Labs, one 10 yr old and one 9 month old. I wish we had done it one or two years earlier, but it is working OK. Tilly is...

Help out a Yank. What is OH? I presume it is the English version of SO (Significant Other). Google was no help.
This weekend, Cooper did something that none of our dogs or friends dogs have ever done before. She was checking out the Wayback in our Outback...
Cooper does not mind us handling her paws and nails, but clippers or a grinder send her into orbit. I think the Zoom and Groom will be OK, but...
OK Thanks for the Info. I've never had a dog do that before. We will try feeding later, or a snack just before bed. Cooper is still on 3...
OK then. I'll just get one type of Whistle. Probably several of them so we can keep them in our dogs kit, and my wife and I both have them...
We used Deramaxx for our previous Lab, Ginger and now sometimes for our 10 yr old Tilly. It worked so well for Ginger that I wanted to take it...
I had a partial hip replacement 2-1/2 years ago, at age 71, due to a bike accident . Mine was the emergency surgery sort, but I was back skiing...
