Let me start by introducing Sienna, a Beagle/Chihuahua mix. Sienna will be staying with us for a couple of weeks, and so far these are the things I’ve noticed she likes to do: Of all the things Sienna likes to do, I’d venture to say that the most enjoyable for her is chewing on the…

Collars For Dogs – Choose The Right One For Your Dog
I’ve learned from experience that one collar does not work for every dog. Bailey, a beautiful mix breed dog, at the beginning would walk me, ok., let me rephrase this, dragged me with her during our first walks. When we got back from our walks, my hands were red and hurting from her pulling me…
Side Effects of Canine Vaccines
Well, it’s been a little over 24 hours since I took Alex to the vet for her vaccines and yearly check-up and she is doing fine. No side effects at all. I always try to schedule her shots for a day I am going to be home just in case she has a bad reaction…

Kingston, A Perfect Pit Bull Ambassador
A couple of weeks ago, I answered an ad for long-term boarding a male pit bull, and after some e-mails and phone calls were exchanged, we agreed to meet and see if my home would be the right environment for Kingston. Now, I’ve had, so far, one AmStaff and one pit mix of my own so I am…
