Dear Daisy,
ARGH! I spent all winter burying all my stuff in the backyard... with spring coming around, the humans have been cleaning up all the leaves and uncovering my stash! I'm so upset!

Dear Gus,
That sucks! I'm not a digger/hider myself... I like to take all my toys and splay them out through the house. The peeps can't walk anywhere without a squeaky toy squeaking or a nylabone jabbing into their barefeet. So awesome when the peeps make yelping noises - makes me wanna play!

Dear Daisy,
How can you tell if a doggie is spoiled?
Sincerely,
Nosey Neil
--
Dear Neil,
* Does your dog beg relentlessly at the table until he's fed?
* Does he ignore your commands unless there's a treat involved?
* Does she growl or nip you when you take one of her toys?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then your doggie may be spoiled.
As long as your pet knows his/her place and obeys your commands, you can pamper him or her to your heart's content. :o)

Dear Daisy,
What do you think about playing tug-o-war with your humans?
Sincerely,
Humble Hal
--
Dear Hal,
It's FUN and I love it! I never realized it had such a bad rep.
Some easy rules for your peeps to follow:
1. The game starts and stops when the peeps decide.
2. Failing to release the toy when commanded stops the game as well, as does running away with the toy or becoming too possessive of it.
3. Play stops if the doggie becomes too excited or aggressive. Growling does not necessarily indicate aggression during tug-of-war. It is a natural behavior for many dogs.
4. Never chase the doggie to get the toy back. Offer a different toy instead, or simply ignore him.
5. Stop playing if the doggie's teeth make contact with the peeps at any time - even by accident. The doggie must learn that it is never acceptable to bite or nip.
It's best that doggies with aggressive or possessive tendencies not engage in tug-o-war. I always "let" my peeps win. ;o)

Dear Daisy,
How do you tell your peeps or other doggies that you are ready to play?
Sincerely,
Handsome Rob

Dear Rob,
With regards to the humans, you mean aside from rubbing my squeaky toys all over their arms and legs?
With my peeps and doggies alike, I like to initiate play by doing my downward facing doggie pose. My bum is up, the front is down and the tail's a-wagging.
Now c'mon! Let's play!

Dear Daisy,
Do your peeps let you kiss them?
Sincerely,
Lou the Lover
--
Dear Lou,
My daddy lets me kiss him - not on the lips though - but pretty much all over the rest of his face. *slurp* Mmm.. the nastier the better.
My momma refuses to let me kiss her! She squeals when I try to give her kisses. *sigh*

Dear Daisy,
What is mange?
Warm Regards,
Curious Chris
--
Dear Chris,
Mange is a skin disease... but did you know it's caused by bites from mites?!?! Eeeep! It's highly contagious too! But the good news is that it's treatable.
Now I'm feeling itchy just thinking about it... gah!

Anonymous Doggie reveals:
"I eat cat poop. Then I give my daddy kisses on the lips while he's asleep."

Share your secret confessions with me. My doggie lips are sealed. New secrets revealed every Friday.

Dear Daisy,
Do doggies sweat?
Sincerely,
Smelly Sam
--
Dear Sam,
Yes! Doggies sweat, but not by salivating or drooling. Doggies sweat through the pads of their feet!! So if you notice a curious popcorn smell coming from your dog's pads, that's just canine sweat.
Seriously! How cool is that? My feet smell like popcorn!
My momma still thinks my feets are smellies.

Dear Daisy,
Is it true? Is there trouble in TomKat land?
Sincerely,
Barky Shields
--
Dear Barky,
Possibly. Word is that Katie took the baby to Ohio to visit her friends and folks - Tom didn't want to go cos they all think he's a wackjob - and Katie was secretly relieved that he didn't come along.
Run, don't walk Katie.
A “confidant” of hers told a magazine: “Katie’s very unhappy and beginning to realize she may have made a major mistake being with Tom.”
Gee. Ya think?
