    Pictures

    Oh my. Well, at least what ur doing is working. Keep at it. Speaking of scare, kota got out of the house when she saw the door open. When she ran not bolted, I freaked and frantically ran after her. ( big mistake). But she did not go anywhere, just kind of stood outside somewhat in a daze. When...

    Lil' Lady Barking: Stop Rain

    Kota I think doesn't care. She'll go outside n do her business n once she's done she'll wait by the back sliding window door to come inside. I think she might have slight deportation anxiety. Mishki would stay outside as long as she can and will refuse to come in unless I show a little "oh kota...

    Pictures

    So, I thought I would post some pictures. Catching them sleeping together at bedtime is easy, because we all settle down, its the after picture I had a hard time getting, because when I make any big movement they're up.. I had to sneak a picture of them sleeping together like I've said before...

    Hello from Canada

    Welcome from boise idaho. She is very lovely. I love how all the shelties romp and lay in the snow... All except my special little girl who is just... Lazy. Lol.

    Snoring plus a rant

    Wow, I knew about the ribs, but not about the backbone. I can't tell where Kota's back bone, should bone and hips are. Thats how chunky she is. And those two lumps I was talking about on her hips, vet says they are probably fatty mass built. Kota loves the green beans, especially frozen... Than...

    Snoring plus a rant

    Thanks guys for letting me rant a bit. Ill try the unsalted green beans for treats. Would thawed frozen green beans work? Looks like we have to do 20 to 30 minutes of brisk walk. Since she's always so slow, ill get hubby to join us and walk from behind kota to get her moving. She doesnt like...

    Snoring plus a rant

    First off, two things and the first thing. Do all shelties snore when they sleep? Kota snores all the time. She's also always hot. ( she feels warm to the touch sometimes) been to the vet, everything's fine. Normal temperature. As I've mentioned before, she will start off sleeping in her bed...

    A surprise.

    Thanks. I am hoping. Already I am seeing the outcome of kota. She won't play, but they will lie down with each other. Now, kota isn't afraid to get in the car to go to the park. (Before I'd have to get in and use the leash to help guide her in while calling her name.) Now, when Mishki jumps in...

    A surprise.

    Hey all. A few days ago, my brother bought a 12 month old alaskan klee kai female. I was a little surprised and didn't know how to react. I was thinking kota might be more comfortable with another dog around. (She was in a kennel with two other shelties when we adopted her and when asked, they...

    Another Pit Bull Attack

    There r a lot of dogs who run wild back home in the bush. I once heard that instead of using chemicals, is to condition ur dog to a sudden open umbrella and that way you scare the charging dog or surprise. Then if that doesn't deter then you do the next thing to save ur pup. I plan to do that...

    Swollowing food without chewing

    Kota is so silly and being a spoiled brad. She hates the slow feeder. She will eat a bit, but then will leave it and then pick at it throughout the day. Maybe I should try the ball in the bowl. She loves her kong. She will lick first as much as she can and when all else fails she'll paw at it...

    Walking problems

    Hello. My personal 2 opinion is no to any type of profens or tylenols and that I too highly recommend making an appointment with your vet. As much as we would like to help, we r not vets and legally we can't be giving any medical advice unless ur a certified vet. I know its hard, I too would...
