Dog Health > suddenly peeing in the house?
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Sat May 25, '13 4:35pm PST |  |  |  |  | When she was younger, before she was spayed, we used to have problems with Dreamy peeing in the house. It's been about 4 years since she was spayed and her accidents stopped. Well, this morning we woke up and there was pee on the floor. We automatically assumed it was Sparkles since she's the puppy but we didn't punish or anything. Well, later I noticed Dreamy peed 3 times when I let her out and then once on the kitchen floor and twice on the carpet after my husband came home from work. I don't know if it's stress because we're packing up to move (there's boxes all over the house) or if it's a uti or what. I started giving her vitamin C to see if that helps any. Anyone have any advice? She drinks a lot of water and her urine is clear. |  |  |  |  |

Rescue, Adoption & Happy Endings > New rescue in central PA!
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Fri May 24, '13 7:30am PST |  |  |  |  | Hi all! I just wanted to spread the word about a newer rescue here in central PA. I've been volunteering at Mending Hearts Animal rescue for over a month now and they are just the most amazing group of people out there. It's basically run by a couple of friends and a bunch of volunteers. They are still small but do everything in their power to help any in need. I wanted to do something for them as I'm moving in a couple weeks out of the area and will no longer be able to volunteer there. Please look them up and if you're in this area, they always need volunteers or people looking to adopt. |  |  |  |  |

Food & Nutrition > Grain free and hungry all the time
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Sat Apr 6, '13 4:24am PST |  |  |  |  | I like adding pumpkin to their food every now and then for a little extra and it seems to satisfy them. And They Love It. Just take an ice cube tray and full it with canned pumpkin and put it in the freezer. Then you'll Have perfect sized Little chives To pop out and put in their dishes. All my pups are on nature's variety instinct also. When we first switched, they seemed hungry too and lost weight but it's faded out now. They are more toned now and obviously healthier than ever. Good luck. |  |  |  |  |

Siberian Husky > Help! I'm fat!
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Sat Apr 6, '13 3:59am PST |  |  |  |  | Thanks Mika Rocky has made a full recovery and has also gained some extra energy now since the food change. You can't even tell anything happened to him. You can't see a single scar I'd say all the fur kids are the healthiest they've ever been and I even managed to lose a few pounds too. Hopefully we can keep this up and all keep each other in shape. I need to get back to bikini size before the bikini weather gets here lol |  |  |  |  |

| Barked: Fri Apr 5, '13 6:48am PST |  |  |  |  | Update time! We had to take a few weeks off due to Rocky recovering and winter throwing all kinds of snow at us but we're back at it and have been walking every day for the past two weeks. I just did a weigh in on Dreamy and though she's at 60lbs now, I really think it's muscle weight instead of fat. I did make the switch to a better food and now we're on a rotation between nature's variety instinct (salmon) and wellness core (ocean). Dreamy gets roughly 1/2 cup twice a day. We ran out of glucosamine a while ago but she hasn't needed it anymore. I really think her hips are being supported better by stronger muscles now. My mom made a comment the other day when she was over that she thought Dreamy had a lump, but it was just her muscles that have been developing near her hips. On our walks (always a 1 1/2 miles), she rarely slows down and wants to run after every bird, squirrel, and blowing leaf she sees. She even wants to play in the evenings now too. |  |  |  |  |

Food & Nutrition > Taste of the Wild or Orijen?
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Thu Mar 21, '13 3:12pm PST |  |  |  |  | Orijen is pretty much the best kibble you can get from what I understand. Taste of the wild is one of the lowest of the grain free options but still isn't bad. Definately go with Orijen. If I could afford to feed it to my 3 I would lol. |  |  |  |  |

Siberian Husky > dog food?
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Wed Mar 20, '13 4:15am PST |  |  |  |  | Blue buffalo is good and I'd say the best choice of the ones you mentioned. I do whatever I can to make sure my pups eat healthy. Unfortunately it costs us around $75 every 3 weeks. Healthy is expensive but I look at it as saving money in the long run. |  |  |  |  |

Siberian Husky > need help!!
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Wed Mar 20, '13 4:03am PST |  |  |  |  | Before any Siberian is bred, their hip and eyes should be certified by OFA and CERF. That means xray certification that they have healthy hips and eyes certified to be clear of any eye diseases by a canine optometrist. This goes for both male and female. They should also be shown and finished (gain championship). Showing isn't just pretty dogs running in circles, it's the judging of breeding stock and of how well they fit the breed descrpition. Also, a female should only be bed after the age of 2, ideally not beyond the age of 5, and definitely not more than once a year. You need to get your girl to the vet before you end up with heartbreak. I had every intention of breeding Dreamy but when I got pregnant, I couldn't afford to show her or do her health testing so I had her spayed. But, Dreamy was from a well known and established champion kennel (kristari). There's too much irresponsible breeding in the world. That's why so many dogs die in shelters every year. |  |  |  |  |

Food & Nutrition > Dehydration for Dummies?!
Dreamy
 Queen of my- castle. | 
| Barked: Wed Mar 20, '13 3:37am PST |  |  |  |  | Honestly, I don't do anything to them. They don't look pretty but they still taste really good. The puppies love them too lol. They're never really brown, brown though just a bit dark. I slice them maybe a quarter inch thick (at most. Usually thinner) and run the dehydrator all day. You can pretreatment them with citric acid solution or mix equal parts lemon juice and water and soak the slices for 10 minutes before dehydrating to protect the color. It doesn't bother me some I don't do the extra work lol. I don't exactly have a fast dehydrator. Just a regular one I picked up at k-mart. Those grapes I put in yesterday are STILL dehydrating lol. I'm definately going to have to try the lunch meat. We tried hot dogs and kiebosa which turned out good lol (dogs LOVED). |  |  |  |  |
