An ice cold teething ring!!! And yes, I think the tooth fairly should visit puppies. Just make sure the pup gets the goodie!!!

Poor Schooner. He's smack in the middle of losing his baby teeth. Here's this gigantic 4.5 month old puppy (about 60 pounds) with a big head, legs the size of tree trunks, and these wee bitty baby teeth in his giant maw. Interested in reading more? You're in luck! The Smart Dog Blog has a s...

Dog Training - The Personal Side: Can You Tell Your Dogs Apart in the Dark?
It was 3:00a when I heard the bark. I knew who it was, instantly, even though the bark came from the other side of the house. And I even knew what the bark was for. [Lily. She wanted to patrol the yard for vermin. We've had vermin lately. Or so she says.] Then, I heard another dog, in another...

Friday Fun: The Dog Ate WHAT? (VW Commercial)
Any commercial with a dog gets a second look from me. I saw this commerical for the first time this morning and had to share. You gotta hand it to the folks at VW's advertising agency - they're pretty darn good. And they're clearly dog lovers, too. Interested in reading more? You're in luck...
We LOVE you!

Caysun's Next Journey to Becoming A Service Dog
The Dreaded Day: Turn-In Day. It vexes all puppy raisers, but I'm especially traumatized by turn-ins. You'd think that with enough experience, I'd get better at it. Have fewer tears. Hurt a little less. Nah. Interested in reading more? You're in luck! The Smart Dog Blog has a shiny, brand ne...

Since there was chocolate involved, and we all know chocolate is a no-no for dogs, did he get sick? Take him to the vet? I hope he is ok. Should you take the hubby to dog training class with you? I love you!

Hematoma the Horrible
This sweet 10-year old Labrador (Lily's her name) is in her own little version of doggie-hell. This is a dog who was released from the service dog program, in part, because she hated (and I do mean hated) wearing her vest. Keep that little nugget in mind as you read. She's had an ear infection...
Talos sends woofs. Love you little one.

I took little Miss Caysun to the vet today to get her up-to-date on some vaccines. It was going to be a quick in-and-out visit -- shots and then we'd hit the door. As usual, things don't go as planned. The shots went ok, don't get me wrong. But I mentioned, in passing, "she's got a little bit of...
I wish Talos learned "Bath!!!" Some days he'll surprise me with water running etc. Other days he bolts (more often than not)like lighting! Can't wait to see the video!

Love that sweet gentle girl! You struck a cord talking about how much longer she'll be around. Cody's 13 and it breaks my heart at the thought.

What a day it was! Minus the fact that I was high on pain pills, recovering from surgery, and fighting infection, I managed to get through it. That day I truly gained a family of 6 plus give or take the number of dogs! I love you guys more than words could say and I am happy and proud to call you family.

We've been raising service dogs since 2001. That handsome dog on the left is the very first dog we raised: Rocky. He died earlier this year, sadly. He was loved by two families: ours and the family who needed him as a service dog. It was quite a life. We turned Ike in yesterday to Hero Dogs. H...
