    Itchy boy!

    Have you taken him to get groomed lately? We took my sable girl to get groomed about 2 years again and she had red spots from reacting to the groomer's shampoo. As you probably already know, shelties have very sensitive skin. The vet recommended baths with another hypoallergenic shampoo and that...

    Doggie Accident Carpet Spot Cleaner

    I have the SpotBot Pet. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NNZ2WU It has saved my carpet/ rugs numerous times over the past 2 years. I use it with the Bissell Pet Formula and Bissell OxyGen2 and it works really well! I decided to get the SpotBot Pet rather than the Little Green Machine...

    Thinking about opening a pet store....yes, seriously!

    - large selection of dog food products - pre-fab or raw frozen. That is, would you choose your pet store by who sells the brand that you want or would you be open to other brands if the store offered other "attractions" I would love if the store had a large selection of dog food products...

    Checklist

    Looks like the other members did a fabulous job of covering the other topics! But.. Toys: My pup has a phenomenal amount of toys (its borderline embarrassing for me). I find that he loves the plush ones (stuffing free actually don't work out too well). He also loves his tugs! They are...

    How far to walk?

    I walk mine early in the morning here in Texas since the temperature tends to rise super quickly later in the day. You should definitely be able to tell when your pup gets tired (tongue hanging out, panting)! You could try walking him further bit by bit so you can gauge how long to walk him...

    What color will he be?

    I also think that your dog will turn out to be a mahogany or shaded sable. One of my dogs (Riley) had almost the same coloring when he was younger. He is now a shaded sable and has the same black tail! :yes:

    Holly is eating the wall!

    We used the bitter apple spray when my puppy would chew the door frame but it didn't work too well. Our puppy Riley seemed to love that stuff!

    throwing up water after drinking lots - ?

    Riley would do this often when he was a puppy. He would get too excited and drink too much water and then run around in excitement and he would end up throwing up. I would pick up the water bowl after a bit or distract him from the water. He has since stopped doing this.

    Eating Kleenex and Toilet Paper

    When Riley was a puppy he used to love getting into the toilet paper! We stopped putting toilet paper on the roll holder because he would get into it. He would also love to pick out Q-tips from the trash can and chew on them! I would catch him with them hanging out of his mouth lol. However, he...
