Here are some good instructions on measuring for a dumbbell

I prefer one piece wooden dumbbells but it is totally up to you if you want plastic or wood.

I have met some great Tollers - love to work but not over the top. Most I have met only have eyes for their owners - not a love everyone breed, that's for sure.

Link to breeders in your area:

I like this breeder near me:

Food & Nutrition > Large breed puppy kibble

Barked: Sat Jun 8, '13 1:01pm PST 
I have a question for people who know about kibble. I was looking at the Acana site and the large breed puppy and small breed puppy formulas are nearly identical in their nutritional analysis. The Ca/P ratio is identical as is the protein. The only real difference is the large breed has a lower fat content and 400 less calories per cup than the small breed version. Are large breed puppy formulas not supposed to have a lower Ca/P ratio? Is that not the purpose of feeding them?

Puppy Place > Puppy eating Pee Pads. Help!

I agree - get rid of the pee pads and train her to ask to go outside. You will need to watch her like a hawk for any signs of her needing to pee and if you can't watch her, in a crate she goes. A 13 week old puppy won't take very long to catch on to the idea but the longer you wait the harder it will be.

Behavior & Training > Telepathy between dogs and humans

I am a skeptic too. Dogs respond to the tiniest nuances that we don't even realize we are giving off. Tiny things like the way we breath, a slight raise of the eyebrow, a change in tension of the mouth - all things that we are not aware that we are doing but things that dogs pick up and are actually a part of the cues we give them.

Dog Health > Beware of VPI "Pet Insurance"

I'm sorry you had a bad experience - it is very important to read all the details of your policy before signing.
I am just curious, when did you originally sign up for VPI? Was it at the time of adoption or more recently?

Behavior & Training > signs of stress

If you want to see stress yawns, go to an obedience trial. The exercises that you will see this the most is on the recall as the owner is walking away and during the stays. They are very different from the "just woke up" yawn and you will immediately see that these are stress related.

As for your cat observation, perhaps this is an appeasement signal rather than a "I have no interest" signal - a real possibility I would imagine.

Dog Health > Human eye drops safe for dogs?

Barked: Mon Jun 3, '13 7:42pm PST 
I have used polysporin eye gel (it's easier to get in than the drops) for minor eye irritations in my dogs.

Depending on the issue, I would check with your vet first. You can always ask your vet if the same thing is available over the counter at the drug store.

What does this have to do with "Sports and Agility"? Perhaps this is better suited to the "Dog Laws and Legislation" forum.

The GSMD are know to be aloof - most that I have met have been. They are great and loving with their families and people they know well, but could really care less about strangers. They need to be well socialized with people and animals when they are young.

I think they are fairly healthy and live to be about 9-10. There is a fair bit of epilepsy in the breed so this is something you should be aware of when looking for a puppy. They are notoriously difficult to housetrain though.
