Re: Our 1yr old rescue dog barks at sounds... how to respond?
welcome!!! your dog barks. i wonder what would happen if you took her out

Re: Babies and dogs
when my children were 2 yrs and 4 yrs old we had a GSD.
we kept our eye on them and the dog. we never left them

Re: Bone stuffing ideas
crate him. i would use an airline crate. you can carry it with you. if you use p-nut butter
