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’m in the same boat with my 3 dogs!
I have an old dog with Cushing that is in the end of life stage. He’s old and mostly blind.
Have another who is young, but has really bad environmental and food allergies.
The 3rd is young also. She doesn’t take any special needs, she’s just REALLY dumb. Doesn’t care about food or treats or anything except play.
My partner and I have decided that these are going to be the last dogs for us and we are sticking with cats. We have 2 cats and they are very easy to care for.
