Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Sat May 25, '13 11:22am PST  How much experience do you have with dogs? GSDs are generally not a good fit for inexperienced handlers as they tend to be more protective. What exactly are you looking for in your dog? What tasks do you need them to perform? my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Dog Health > Early Graying?

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Thu Apr 25, '13 11:15pm PST  Thor is almost two and already has a gray muzzle, like what you would expect on a 6 or 7 year old dog. He eats a high quality diet and is the picture of health in every other aspect. I am wondering what his issue is! His coat is health and very soft, no hair loss or anything. He just has his white little muzzle that is spreading. Any ideas? my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > Choke or pinch collar?

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Tue Apr 9, '13 12:04am PST  I would say neither unless you are working with an experienced trainer. Problems come about when the tools are used improperly, as most people do. If you are working with a trainer they can help you select the right tools for your dog my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Service & Therapy Dogs > Attending College with a SD

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Thu Apr 4, '13 4:40pm PST  To bring Thor to school with me I basically had to go into disability services and talk to them about it. Once they determined he was a "real" SD, we were fine. However, if I had wanted special accommodations such as a different type of table or something they would need a letter from my DR. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Mon Mar 25, '13 10:56am PST  I was wondering if anybody has experience with Hovawarts. I saw one and thought he was gorgeous. What are they like? my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > What do you look for in a dog trainer??

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Sat Mar 9, '13 8:18pm PST  I personally would sit in on a class. Look at how they are training. See if you are comfortable with their methods. See how the dogs are responding to the training. The biggest clue is how well behaved their personal dog is Good luck! my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Choosing the Right Dog > Breed match for me

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Thu Mar 7, '13 1:32pm PST  I should add that I want a dog who is longer lived than 7 years on average. I want the longest working life span as possible I don't think I could own a dog that lives so short of a life. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Thor CGC God of Thunder     Barked: Thu Mar 7, '13 1:25pm PST  Some mixed breeds are bred for a job. For instance many dogs that are actually used for sledding are mixed breeds. Another example is for Service Dog work. Many organizations utilize a breeding program for cross breeds. They are breeding the dogs to get the best traits from both, and obviously it is working if they continue to do it. On another note I do not agree with all this "designer" breeds that are being bred just to make money. I have no issues with breeding a mix for a job, but I don't like all these people who are just trying to make a quick buck, then the people who are convinced that their dog is actually a purebred of some sort my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]
