After two years of developing the diet I feed my dogs I have found that either feeding them outside is good (but you have to bring the dish back in when they're done) or feed them in thier crate, which was said already, and really is easy to clean up the area if it does get messy. For everyone, you ...

This is very useful if you don't mind doing things yourself or don't want to shell out the cost for veternary care of a dog with parvo (which is a lot). The Nutri-cal or Vet-cal mentioned is another useful tool and could have other implications like trying to add some weight on a dog. I foster and t...

As I don't care to read through evry post after the all caps posting hurt my eyes reading it. My opinion is that most people (98% of people) should not have or train an dog of any breed in any protective sport. This being that most people lack understanding of pet ownership, ability to train and app...

I too have a poly break stick and have yet to use it. I think in the long run a poly would last longer and be more forgiving to general storage conditions (leaving it in your car, droping it, test of time!) though if I had to get a wooden one I would make it was made from a hard wood species. This w...

I fabricated my open from 6gauge pannel. I made two to mount in the bed of my truck since I was tired of lugging plastic kennels in and out of my bed. A friend and myself welded them up with latches and hinges and only cost me about $50 for two of them including the paint. No dog is chewing through ...
