Food & Nutrition > Natures Domain or TOTW

SAMI IM ALL ABOUT- PLAYING (;     Barked: Tue Dec 4, '12 7:33pm PST  My mom finally found a grain free food at our local feed store..TOTW...my brothers and i love it! My question is....My mom spent 42.00 bucks for 30#pounds..which isnt to bad but....since she has 3 big dogs to feed ( two 1 yr olds and one 11yr old)..we were wondering if Natures Domain is just as good? Between the 3 of us we eat 9 cups once a day...My mom wants to feed us a grain free food and since they both are...Nature is alittle less for aliitle more..Should she switch?any advice will be helpful my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > a challenge for my mom

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Tue Jun 26, '12 6:49pm PST  Hay all, well ONCE again my mom needs some advice...( yes she has owned dogs before) but im the only one who is challenging her.She thot we were making progress with me getting comfertable being in my new home..well now i like staying out side most of the time( my mom thinks im crazy cause the weather is way over 100 degrees) Sure i can get in the house anytime i want we have doggy doors, i only come in at night. she wants me to feel like apart of the family..I do however come in when my dad is gone, but when he is home i rather be outside. my dad has never hit me and moves slow with me to not make me frighten, and show im happy when he pets me. I dont always come when im called and even tho i eat more regulary with my bro, i still have to be encourage to eat...NOW mind you my mom loves me alot but i guess she doesent understand the way i am, she has often asked me she wishes she knew how i was treated my first year of life, that way she could understand me more.Like she has told me im here to stay mo matter wagt cause she wont give up on me..i just dont think she has had a dog as smart as me...lol so if any of you other animals lover have any advice, i know she be appreicative my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Mon Jun 18, '12 10:29am PST  Hi all, well once agin im not eating all my food in the morning:/ My mom has fed me less and tried twice a day, i just dont seem interstead to eat it all at once, this past few days my mom has been leaving my bowl down for the fact she was busy and just left for me to pick @ it....tho she never knew if it was me or my brother who finally finshed it. She adds alittle wet food now but its not helping...should she use maybe yogurt or sardines to temp me more?My bro eats his breakfast all at once so she just kind of wants to gets us both on the same track so to speak... my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > what am i barking at??????

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Sat Jun 9, '12 8:42am PST  Thanks for your ideas, however i can tell you this...i dont bark at the same time( well at least my mom doesnt think so) i sleep any where i have beds in my parents room and the living room. I have doggy doors so i can get out side if it is coyotes and i usually dont bark in the house...unless the door bell rings...and lol im hoping it isnt mice...( my mom says EW!)I have been with my family since Feb of this year and my mom has notice me barking just recently.... my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > what am i barking at??????

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Fri Jun 8, '12 8:23am PST  It me wrangler again....Have another question for you...my mom is baffled by my unprovoked barking in the middle of the night...i do it in the house and it happens every night. My brother does not join in so my family doesnt see it as of trouble..we live in the country and therefore it cant be passing cars or strangers...not untill my mom moans from her bed "leave it" do i stop...do you all have any ideas of why this is happening..and btw its not cause i cant get outside to potty..cause we have doggy doors... my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Sun Jun 3, '12 9:31pm PST  My dad pets me when he is sitting in his chair or standing up and kneeling.....my mom is the primary provider to me and my bro..she feeds us and make sure we have water and all the things we need....we dont really go on walks we live on 2 acres and have free run of it... my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Wrangler lets play, play- PLAY.. :D     Barked: Sun Jun 3, '12 8:28pm PST  The name is Wrangler....my family adopted me back in Feb of this year, from the local humane society, i was a stray and so the first year of my life is unknown to humans.I am 1 yr old and now am in whats seems to be a loving fun home, im never hit or punished only told to quit or leave it if im crossing my boundaires. My mom has a bed in her and my dads room for me and my brother but im scared to go in the room,( tho i act like i wanna go in) so i sleep in my moms sons room this is where the confusion enters....i am so skidish when it comes to loud movements or noises and seem frightend when my dad pets me, tho he has never struck me before....i wish there was some way i could tell me family why i act the way i do..do any of you have advice for them?I am like i said only 1 so im hoping that ill learn that they do love me and they will do no harm.... my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
