That's it!!! Hubby & the kids play "trap" where he wrestles them to the ground & holds them while they try to get loose. They love it!!! Blue not so much!! Makes so much sense now!! The girls & Shawn play like that & Blue shies away from them & is really close to Daylon & me. Thank you Jan!!

Update on Blue He is gradually becoming less afraid of my husband. Blue will still run & hide if he makes any sudden movements or loud noises, but he does not hide all the time anymore. He is so funny at night when we go to bed, he will lay on the opposite side of me from my hubby & reach...

Hi Everyone, It has been forever since I posted. So I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the Innova EVO Reduced Fat. I've been thinking of putting Blue on it. I went to the Local Pet Food Store & the guy there suggested it when I told him that Blue always acts hungry & wants to...

I just bought Blue TOTW & haven't started him on it yet. It's a better price for me than some of the other grain-free brands. I'm still considering going with the Innova EVO Reduced Fat because my Blue boy needs to lose a few pounds & my local Pet Food store said that would be a good food for...

Oh my!! Poor Smudge & poor Mommy!! I hope you get it figured out for him soon & take this breeder down!!! As for the cream, Blue had follicular (sp?) conjunctivitis when I got him and the vet gave him neo-poly-dex eye ointment. I'm sure it would work for the cracking around his eye.

We are transitioning to Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul. We were feeding Purina, then I found this forum & the dog food analysis website. So, we started switching them to the By Nature, which is rated 4 star, but then saw a post about how the By Nature was bad for dogs. So, we started...

I have no idea why but Blue seems to be very afraid of my husband. When he comes home from work Blue will run to the door barking like he always does when someone comes to the door and as soon as he sees that it's my hubby he turns, runs right into our room & under the desk. I just don't...

Hi & Welcome!!!:smile2:

Another option I am so sorry to hear about poor Smudge. Have you looked into CareCredit? It's not just for medical & dental. They cover vet bills, don't know if your vet takes it though. It only takes a few minutes to apply & get approved. It may help with some of the meds & stuff till you...

I unfortunately have no advice for you other than what you were already given. I am told by my neighbor that Blue is the most timid sheltie she has ever seen. I think it's just her. :razz: He's fine with us, although I will admit that when we first got him he was pretty timid and skittish...

I am laughing so hard, I'm crying over here!!! Blue doesn't fart that I've noticed, but I did comment to my husband the other day that he's the burping-est dog I've ever seen. He gets done eating and just walks over to where I happen to be lying on the floor with the girls, sits down, and...

Did you decide to go with the by Nature?? I didn't see this post before I went shopping. We don't have a lot of options here so I just went to petsmart. I felt so bad that I was feeding 1 star food (Beneful, they wouldn't eat) and was switching to a 2 star food (Nutrish, was making them...

Thank you all for the great input!! Will definitely be looking into some Plush Puppy & some ice on ice. What does it smell like?? I am a big scents person, so have a hard time buying a shampoo or conditioner I can't smell.:wink2:

Blue & I will be praying that Indy feels better very soon & that the meds work for him for a long time!!

It does sound like lots of fun, but I'm way to much of a chicken to drive 20+ hours with 3 kids & 2 dogs!!!!
