Handsome dog. :)

Proper hygiene is generally all that is necessary (hand washing and cleaning surfaces with a good disinfectant). I have been feeding raw meat for years with various dogs. In most "undeveloped" nations, that's what the majority of dogs eat …

Personally, I don't leave my primitive breed dogs with the vet (or anyone). They are emotionally sensitive and it would only create stress like your pup experienced. As others said, its best to stay with them in potentially stressful situations. I t…

Looks like a fun time! The pictures of him under the statue look iconic. :)

She is simply adorable! <3

Congrats on the new baby! :) This is a very exciting time, I'm sure. For a collar, I recommend a martingale style. Primitive dogs seem to be able to pop out of regular collars more easily due to stronger flight/fight instincts (IMO) and their body …

I agree with you on taking it slow. Since you're unsure of his health right now, I wouldn't risk your other dogs getting something (even if they are vaccinated) or him maybe not feeling well and being more grumpy with them. Obviously the dogs are aw…

Too cute!! At this age, he looks like a stuffed animal (I mean that in the best of ways!). :D

Considering the convenience of not having to build it and being the cheapest I could find, I consider it a decent box for someone starting out. The machine is simple and does what it's supposed to. As with any lure coursing device, be careful about …

Thank god for the good samaritan that found him! Hopefully his family finds him soon!

I got the cheapest one that Wicked Coursing had available. It was on sale for $100, so not bad compared to the cost of other machines. http://shop.wickedcoursing.com/Wicked-Coursing-Machines-for-Dogs_c2.htm;jsessionid=36DA6A47302F61CC17EEFCE1CD470…

I tend to agree with you. "Independent thinker" is perhaps a better description than just "independent," which is general and can be misleading. Most dogs adapt to being home alone while their owner is a work/shopping/school etc.…

I hope this sweet girl finds a special family! I would be very interested if my circumstances were different ;)

Such a handsome little guy! Congrats!!

Thanks shibamistress! One feature in particular that I like about this forum is that owners are good about giving examples and detailed explanations about their breed/s. On other web sites and forums for less traditional dogs (in USA), there tend to…

Wanted to update, we're going primarily raw once we get through more of our kibble. I may keep a little bag of kibble on hand just in case (it helped my husband be on board with my preference for feeding our dog), but no more 30 and 40 pound bags fo…

Handsome boy! The pictures of him laying down are too cute! Our Japanese Chin used to do that too. :)

I forgot to say that Pa Gaw also gets fresh possum on occasion. He tried coming in the house the other night with a fat possum in his mouth! I told him to go back outside. ;)

Beautiful dogs! Its nice seeing how well they play together. My TRD used to play with our Japanese Chin all of time. It was funny to watch them because of their size difference ;) Sadly, the JC passed away earlier this year.

Great news! :D

Handsome dog. Congrats!
