Let's talk about dog poop
So Lucy only eats blue buffalo chicken and rice. I rarely give her any treats and certainly no table scraps. Even if her poop bakes in the sun for a week I try to scoop it up and it still mushy in the middle and smears into the grass. Anything I can do a firm her poop up?

We give our dogs pumpkin. You can buy cans at the grocery but just make sure it is pure pumpkin and NOT pumpkin pie filling. Our dog is small, 14 pounds and one teaspoon with her meal keeps everything nice and firm...

We had a black lab pup named Bella. The crazy ex-wife named her after the chick in the Twilight movies though. Glad that bitch is gone now.......the ex-wife, not the dog.

Yeah, but did you wear the sleeve like a pansy or just go au naturel?
I'm surprised on a serious note though - so the training was effective such that even though you are her owner, she still went for the takedown? Interesting. What was the training and how long did it take / cost? |

Interesting. Pumpkin is what we give our dogs when they are constipated. Guess it works both ways? That's one amazing gourd!

Hahaha, might have the opposite affect!! But seriously keep in mind how small teaspoon is so that might not be a bad guess. Our little dog only eats 2/3 of a cup of food daily so...
The pumpkin was recommended by our vet as this was our second dog and she was always a bit skittish being number two. This lead to some tummy issues including diarrhea. Vet recommend the pumpkin and it tightened her right up. She's now 10 so been on it a long time now...

They both did as a matter of fact. One knew she was in trouble when she bit me and I was "in" trouble when the other bit me. Difference was that the short fury one, on all fours always, bit hard and left marks when she bit me.....the dog never bit me hard enough to leave marks.

side note: A few of those pictures are about 20 minutes from my house. The killboy shots are great. I regret never hitting the dragons tail in the E93 for this reason alone. |

We all wore a sleeve. It still hurts sometimes. I’m not the handler. I think he was gone for three months for training. The dog was already trained. The dog will go after whoever the handler tells him to go after. I had a dog way early in my career. I’m too old now. I don’t want to do it anymore. I play with this dog 3-4 days a week, the dog plays with my pet Husky and my daughter (I take the dog when the handler goes on vacation, saves on boarding costs) but the second he gave the command to get me, the dog got me. |

If so, how long is the training? You said you thought about three months above - I'm guessing that is to date - how much longer till he's done and back? Are you pleased so far? Was it fairly costly? As you can tell, I've been intrigued by this for a while. Have been thinking a little bit about it in case we get a Shepherd for the next dog, but that is hopefully still another 5 years or so (hopefully). |

The past month or so Oscar has started pissing in the corner of my half bath on the first floor. It was very infrequent at first but now has become more of a regular occurrence. I have no idea why. His litter box is upstairs, and he is beyond well trained. His litter box is cleaned daily and is always accessible. We've been in the house 14 months now so it's not an adjustment thing. No other animals have ever been in the house so it's not a marking his territory thing. One wall of the bathroom is an exterior wall, I was thinking maybe he smelled a raccoon or a neighborhood cat outside but the corner he prefers is not the exterior wall. I don't get it. I started cleaning it with tilex thinking the smell would deter him but he did it again this morning. Are there any kind of repellent sprays I can use? Not happy
