All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

I pet sit for my best friend and his husband fairly often.
And they've been known to leave some funds for his adoption day when they're away then on business. Me and my little buddy party it up! Doggie ice cream, new toys, and even a doggie beer lol.
It used to be we'd all get together for their dog's adoption day, and my dog's birthday and do essentially the same thing. But they started their own businesses, so there's more travel, and my dog isn't around any more. So it's been me and my little buddy (their dog) for his day the last two years.
Then again, me and the pooch party every day I'm there lol. He's a high energy little fella, and we ball hard. And then cuddle while we nap to recover :)
