Dalmatians are not for the faint of heart. One I shared a house with would casually walk the kitchen counters.

I have a 9 year old male and this past summer I purchsed 6 week old puppy. Two words --
DOG SCHOOL -- it was the best $1000 I ever spent.
She's went there a puppy and came home a star. Best dog I've ever owned.

Nothing like a new puppy to warm up a new house.

,,, re your endorsement of standard poodles in post #58. There's an amazing loyalty streak in them too.
We have a Shih Tsu as well and it's comparatively aloof and cunning.
To: innocentbystander
They do walk over most people, unless you are firm and consistant.Yes, and they make difficult boarding clients because they aren't willing to readily accept a new, temporary alpha.

A mere doggie? Think BIG!
No crocodiles . . or rhinocerussesses
The only pets worth having . .
Are hippopotamussesses!
And as for TABITHA, she's on ignoressess!

Pointers are wired and hyper by function.... They have to be to do their job... Retrievers and the other breeds that are "a gentleman's hunting companion" would be better if you don't like hyper!

Well, okay. We (my dog Cody and I) just started a 10-week obedience training course. Basic. Very basic. Cody's seven years old, and we adopted him when he was six. He's basically a nice lazy old dog, but not entirely reliable outdoors off a leash. No bad habits, no chewing or house training accidents or anything. Mainly he likes to eat and sleep and get petted.
Well, you know that business about old dogs and new tricks. Cody likes the classes, mainly because it's positive reinforcement training, and that means lots of doggy treats. But learning anything? Not hardly.

I have a cat problem..any cat folks out there?
I have a 6 year old Female (neutered) She is an "outside "cat..has her claws..well in the last year she has taken to spraying (marking??) on my dining room table y in the center of it around the flowers or centerpiece. ..usually when I am not home (a temper tantrum?)
I thought I had solved it by using that "keep away"spray..but she did it again today..
I do not want to put her to sleep ..but this is starting to get to me
Any ideas?

A little schooling will go a long way, especially when your doggie loves you and wants nothing more than to please you.

What a strange thread to be reading today.
My beloved 10-yr old Chow-Keeshund cross - Brunna - dropped dead in my back yard just after midnight this morning. I'd just let him out, as requested, of course, and went to bring him 10 minutes later. I couldn't believe my eyes. I found him lying by the back fence and immediately called the police. However, they (and later the Vet Hospital) found no signs of injury or other exterior trauma. The (un-autopsied) conclusion is 'natural causes,' probably massive heart attack.
I have not slept and I'm running on adrenaline. Knowing that when that subsides my heart will surely be ripped from my chest.
I am an older (59) woman who lives alone and has no family on the NA continent. I am bereft. I dread Christmas. I dread my birthday tomorrow.
Would appreciate prayers.
I would love to post a pic of my Brunna but don't know how. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Thank you Argh! I love a good lab... - Did you see the photos of him as a young dog? - not that he hasn't aged gracefully...
Well Flyer??? She does look like a mountain goat doesn't she!?!?! hee hee
