Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Mon Apr 1, '13 2:58pm PST  I wash Sarge when he gets super muddy or just overly dirty. He's very accommodating and will put up with a lot. I switched from bath to shower as he tolerates it. I'll put some bathwater in and give him the "Stand" command. I can wash his legs, feet, and undercarriage that way. Drain the water and switch to shower mode. He just sits there (or stands if asked) and I can get all the soap off his head, shoulders, butt, and back that way. The shower is a great way to get all of that excess soap off. Otherwise you'll resort to dipping cup after cup of water on him to get the soap off. Hopefully, your dog is just as tolerant. Showers make the job very easy. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Mon Feb 4, '13 8:43pm PST  Valium Blow Darts. ok ok ok As with a child, set up a routine your puppy can expect and follow. Saints are SMART dogs. They will settle into a nice routine that you master for them. I've noticed my dog is acting like a 160lb. cat. "I want to go out." "I want to come in." "I want to go out." "I want to come in." repeat He is and adult and trained. I think he's just bored. I try to play with him a little bit more and that helps. Make your puppy comfortable and keep him stimulated. Might help. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Saint Bernard > How much did your St Bernard weigh at 8 weeks?

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Thu Sep 13, '12 7:21am PST  Couldn't answer that really. We got Sarge at 5 months. I panicked a little when he first came home. I kept thinking "What did I do? He's HUGE." Proper training at a young age will keep your dog manageable when it is grown. When your dog gets average 150-ish pounds full grown, you'll be so used to the size that it really wont matter. Now other dogs I used to think were big are now just small dogs to me. Don't get hung up on weight/size unless you think there is a health problem. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Saint Bernard > Dry Food for Adult Saint.

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Sun Jan 29, '12 9:10pm PST  Sarge is on Nutro Natural Choice "Large Breed Adult". He has been since he was 7mo. (now 3yrs.) It contains the Glucosamine and Chondroitin for healthy hip joints. Bigger dogs have tendencies to develop bad joints in the legs due to size. Top four ingreds: Chicken Meal, Ground Rice, Corn Gluten Meal, Wheat Flour. Crude Fiber listed at 5% Whatever you choose, just read the labels. I'm using mine right now to get you this information. I had forgotten all that is in it but I know I was impressed with the configuration when I started him on this. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Saint Bernard > Eating Snow, Is This a Problem?

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Wed Mar 2, '11 5:45pm PST  I'm not sure how to say this and still have it sound polite. I assure you, I mean it polite. "It's just water isn't it?" There may be some atmospheric contaminants or dirt if the snow or ice is near a roadway but for the most part, it's just water. I can't see this being a problem. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Mon Nov 8, '10 7:33pm PST  @Lexus Bentley and Lexus might have fast metabolisms. I'm not an expert so don't take too much stock in my comment. It seems like a LOT of food. But it may be Just Right for them. Who knows? What does your vet recommend? my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Saint Bernard > Happy Birthday Sarge!!!

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Tue Oct 5, '10 11:17am PST  Thanks! He loves playing tug-o-war when excited. He's destroyed yet another big tug rope. I found a tough tug toy at the store. I'll buy it tonight for his birthday. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Saint Bernard > How much does your Saint weigh - Part II

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Mon Oct 4, '10 6:25pm PST  140 ~145 ish. Guessing closer to 140 @ two years old. He's a runt! My wife took him in to the vet, for a visit. It was the Shi'Tzu's turn to get worked on. She weighed him on that visit a few weeks back. He was around 140ish. Man this dog is a cuddler. I like his snuggles when it's super cold out. He keeps my feet warm too. EDIT: I just saw Loki's avatar has been updated to "rainbow bridge" That's very very sad. Loki passed away? I'm terribly sorry to hear that. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sarge Give me a hug or- else!     Barked: Mon Oct 4, '10 6:18pm PST  Woke up this morning and remembered tomorrow (oct. 5th) is important for two reasons. 1.) Auto payment from my account for college. 2.) hmmm what was 2? Sarge was staring at me. I'm like "get back a minute I'm trying to think." OHHHH It's your birthday tomorrow. Estimated b-day but it's official now. happy 2nd big boy. He's brought a lot of love to our house. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]
