All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.

Rules (Will be refined later on).

  1. Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.

  2. No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
    Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.

  3. All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.

  4. Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.

  5. Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

What a good girl. Luna deserves all the headpets.

And belly rubs and behind-ear scritches, and under-chin schritchies.

Basically… whatever else wants as far as pets, rubs and scritches go.

What if I give my Luna Bear head pets for you?

I would love that. Thank you. Makes sure you dive into her belly too and say "Who's a good girl?!"

Gravy and Gypsy respectfully. I just checked out Bitty and Zombii. They are adorable and I like Bittys new top.

What did humanity do to deserve such loyal friends? God I fucking love dogs so much, one of the highlights of my day is getting home from work and seeing how excited and happy my precious little dog is to see me.

Dogs truly are humanity's best friend. They love you unconditionally, as long as you treat them right of course.

Dog Training can be a magical thing. Having a line of communication with your animal companions sates our human instinct for peer bonding and acceptance. It's kind of a facade, at least when dealing with commands but what a beautiful illusion it is.

I want to kiss her snoot.

Dogs > Humans.
