CAUTION COLLARS

Posted by Lisa on 1/28/2016 to Announcements

One of the things I am passionate about is responsible dog ownership. For some, this can be a real challenge. There are dogs out there that have so much energy they don’t know what to do with themselves, and will knock you over trying to be your buddy. And what about the dogs who are blind or deaf? A blind or deaf dog may become agitated if a stranger were to reach out and pet him without fair warning first.

URGENT: Why Is My Dog Pressing His Head Against The Wall?

Posted by Lisa on 1/26/2016 to From Lisa

Dogs do many weird things. One weird thing that you shouldn’t chalk up to something that is oddly charming and adorably peculiar is when a dog presses his head against a wall or door for no apparent reason. This is called “head pressing” and could be a big indicator of a serious underlying medical issue.

One of the most heartbreaking things to happen in the life of a pet owner is when their pet bites a child. You can be the most vigilant person in the world and it still may happen.

Dear Addie, Snow.

Posted by Addie on 1/5/2016 to Dear Addie

Dear Addie,

I am writing to you from beautiful Casa Grande, Arizona! I have lived here all of my life which would make that four years. My human has lived here for the last ten. We are getting ready for a move though. My human’s daughter is going to have puppies! My human decided that she needed to move back home to Norfolk, Connecticut where her daughter still lives so she can help her daughter raise them. Puppies, as you know, are a lot of work.

Your Dog Is Going To Poop In Your House

Posted by Yellow Dog on 12/15/2015 to Tips & Facts

If you are a dog owner, then I am going to lay down a universal truth at your feet. At some point, your dog is probably going to poop in your house during the course of his lifetime. Do yourself a favor and make peace with this. It may have happened already and I’m really sorry about that. If it has not happened yet, then pat yourself on the back. You win the crown. For now anyway.

Dear Addie, The Groundhog

Posted by Addie on 12/11/2015 to Dear Addie

Dear Addie,

I am a pretty self-reliant dog but I am having some difficulty finding a resolution to a problem my family and I are facing. We are dealing with a squatter on the property. I am not sure where we stand legally on how to make him leave. It’s a groundhog and he’s made his home underneath the shed in the backyard.
