Dog Health > Shaking as if shes wet

Body shaking can also be a sign of stress release...as in "shaking it off". My dogs do it after wrestling, after being released from a difficult command or after a confrontation. If she's on anti anxiety meds, she could just be shaking off the stress.

Raw Food Diet > Veggies/Fruit

When we seeing- the ponies?!

OK, this is gonna sound gross, but my dogs totally dig it!! I puree spinach, green beans, asparagus, bananas, tomatoes, blueberries or cranberries. My girls LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I also do pumpkin, but usually not in the puree. They love sweet potatoes and yellow squash (but they don't get that very often, mostly just due to me not being able to get it very often).

Raw Food Diet > Puppy doesn't want meals with bone

I agree with Gizmo. Tia had issues with bone for a little while. Their jaw muscles may not be strong enough to get through the thick leg bones. Also, they still have their puppy teeth. In the wild (yes I know, they are not wolves, they are domestic, but the theory is still the same) the adult dogs would still be regurgitating some of the food for the puppies. You might want to start with smaller bones & give boneless meat with it. Chicken wings are good, chicken feet too. The jaw muscles will get stronger & soon your pup will be able to get through bones will no problem.

Raw Food Diet > Can I feed ground if it is cooked?

WOW Where are y'all living that gizzards & hearts are that expensive?! It's the cheapest of the meats I feed my dogs. I can get it bulk at a local butcher for $.89 a pound or for just over a $1 at Wally World. My dogs just love them!!

Raw Food Diet > My dog doesn't like liver! What should I do?
Sita SD

I dehydrate my own liver. I guess I could do kidneys too, just cut the fat off. If you have a dehydrator, put the liver or kidney in the oven on 200 degrees for two hours, then put in the dehydrator. I usually go overnight, but if the liver is a bit thick, I will leave it in all day. I like it really crispy as it's less messy when training. If you don't have a dehydrator, just leave in the oven until it's cooked like you like it smile

Sita isn't fond of raw liver either. For a while I was putting liver & other organs in the blender, then freezing them in a ice cube tray. I thawed them out & mixed it in with the breakfast. Now I use dehydrated liver as training treats & she LOVES those. The vet said the dehydrated liver is ok to give instead of the raw.

Service & Therapy Dogs > Have you been to Las Vegas with your service dog?

Sita SD

When we seeing- the ponies?!
 
 
Barked: Sun Feb 3, '13 11:32pm PST 
Sita & I have been to Las Vegas a few times. Sita loves it!!! We've never had any issues with hotel, restaurant or store employees. They have always been very accommodating, asking if we needed water for Sita or food & always willing to seat us where Sita would be most comfortable. Other tourists are another story. Usually very nice, never had any big problems. I did have a few rude people on the last trip, mainly just really rude questions. Watch out for the drunk people though. They're a kick in the pants LOL. One thing I would suggest is to get a light up collar or other lights to put on your leash & vests so your dog is more visible. It helped a lot walking the strip at night or being in the dark casinos. Also, if I remember correctly, NV has very strict laws concerning interfering with a service dog.

Service & Therapy Dogs > Tia's training is coming along nicely

So I videoed a little of Tia's training today. Please forgive the camera work. I was having trouble balancing the phone, the treats & the clicker. This is Tia's favorite task by far (as you can see in the video at one point she pushes it before I even ask lol). I was using the doggy crack, as I do whenever we train, although she'd probably do this for just about anything.

Behavior & Training > This Is Just Very Odd

I saw this video years ago. I think I got the link from an article? I know I read somewhere that they had a fishing line tied or taped to the leg to make it move.
