Thanks for the ideas everyone!

Hello, I have a 1 1/2 year old sheltie. He is not afraid of the dryer at all, if I am holding some treats in one hand he will happily try and get them while my other hand uses the high velocity dryer. If I am not feeding him he tries to bite the air coming out of the dryer. I would...

Hello, I need to replace my utility sink so I am considering putting something in to make it easier to bath my dogs. Anyone have anything they particularly like or dislike? Thank You

Just tried it, easy thank you. The only thing was I had to tape an old dead battery to the front to keep it from tipping over backwards once I had a sheet of paper clipped to the top hanger part with a clothes pin. Thanks again. Elizabeth

Thanks. You don't by chance have a photo of one do you?

There must be a thread on this somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a good, easy, inexpensive option for some rally sign holders for home use? I know you can print the signs out and put them in clear plastic sheet protectors and use clothespins to clip them to some kind...

I had something similar, but less difficult. My older dog got along with everyone/everything and loved nothing more than making new friends. When I walked him with the pup, he was fine with people and many dogs, but with some dogs, he would start barking, which was not typical of him. I...

I don't know, it sounds great to me. Picture having to get up every night at 3 am with an elderly dog. I would much rather have a puppy pad in the basement.

I just let mine out very briefly when it is frostbite cold. I find throwing a soft squeeky ball that won't break anything a great way to run off a little energy in the house. How did you teach your dog to use a pad in the basement? A previous dog of mine, when he was elderly, needed to go out...

I am no expert on this subject, but this page explains the different levels of obedience competition. http://classic.akc.org/events/obedience/getting_started.cfm Scroll down until you see Novice, Open, and Utility explained. The page also has a link to a Pre-novice video.

My dogs are barkers also. For situations that happen infrequently, your moving for example, my strategy is to keep their mouths busy with something that they do not normally get, so that they are really excited about it, and that will hopefully take enough time. Frozen kongs are good. I also...

Thanks for posting this. I did watch it. I was hoping to watch it a few more times Christmas day, but I guess it was only available until Christmas. I am not familiar with One Mind Dog, is it a popular? I thought the video was very good.

I am just curious. I have gone to a few shows, with no understanding of what I am looking at, and one time I did see someone using a black sharpie marker. I just assumed the dog had a spot somewhere that should be black but was not. What other "touch ups" can be done with a black marker?

I have been using coat handler and like it. I saw an old post here were someone recommended it...

I have this comb also. I hated paying so much for a comb, but I figured if it helped me do a better job grooming myself instead of paying a groomer, it was a good investment. I really like it. If my line brushing skills were better, I probably would not need it, but it really does a nice...
