What Breed is My Dog?
I think it is a Shepherd and possibly some Shiba Inu, they are smaller and have the same coloring as your furry little baby. Those are some big paws, so it may get bigger in the next few months. Beautiful puppy!
Heating a Rice Theraputic Pad Without a Microwave?
Maybe putting the pad into a sealed tight zip lock bag, (make sure all the air is out of the bag) and float in a sink of very hot water? Might even weigh it down with something so the bag is submerged in the water for awhile. Dont know how well it might work...

Use Stuffed Animals As Dog Toys
I go to thrift stores for my dog toys, too. I make sure there arent any beans in the bottom of them as well. I bought a big floppy stuffed duck once, not realizing it had one of those press button noise makers in the foot. I kept hearing quack quack quack and...

What Breed is My Dog?
I would say he is either German Shepherd/Collie, or maybe since he looks smaller, he might even be mixed with Sheltie, smaller version of the collie. But those dogs all have a lot of fluffy hair, and his coat does not look very thick, not even like a German...

Needlepoint Canvas Earring Holder
Oops, looks like I forgot to add after the glue is dry to turn it over and trim the excess off the back. But I am sure everyone would figure that out!
Dog Won't Stop Scratching?
My dogs cannot eat any food with corn or corn meal in it. It causes the same reaction. Take the dog to see the vet, and if it is just a general skin condition, try changing their diet. I feed my dogs lamb and rice food, and even buy lamb and rice dog biscuits...

Save Food Scraps for Chickens

What Size Stretch Cord Is Used for Making Beaded Bracelets?
I use .7mm for most projects, the 1mm usually is too big for smaller beads. Some brands have .8mm which is good too. I have had trouble with the .5mm breaking so I dont buy that anymore. I have found after years of beading that it also matters what brand you...

He looks similar to my dog, Rusty Girl, she is Boxer/German Shepherd mix. They have similar ears, white paws, white markings on the chest, and the white tip on her tail. She does have more of a boxer nose, black muzzle with white on top of her snout, but they...
Can a Dog Get Parvo Again?
I was told by my vet that once a dog has parvo, it is pretty unlikely they will ever have a problem again. We found a stray German Shepherd puppy we named Bear that we took in at about 4 months old, and even though he had 3 out of 4 booster shots against parvo...
What Breed is My Dog?
It does have some pit bull in it, but I think maybe some Boxer also, narrower face than a full blooded pit bull and markings (white paws, chest) that could be from either breed. My dog is part Boxer and looks similar.
Keep Dog from Pulling on Leash
One of the best treats I learned about when I did obedience training with my pound puppy Winston, (half Bassett hound and half Sharpei) was from the trainer. She said to take low fat (organic is best) chicken hot dogs and slice them long ways in half then cut...
Christmas Centerpieces?
I went to the dollar store and picked up the largest clear glass vases they had, a few packages of small Christmas balls, some of that wire garland with stars on it, and some wide ribbon. I placed the balls in the vase with a strand of the garland, put a bow...

Where Can I Find a Terrycloth Mop For Hardwood Floors?
I have a double sized Swiffer type mop, and got tired of buying the pads for it, so I went to the Dollar store and bought microfiber towels, and use those for cleaning my wood floors with a spray on cleaner. I stretch them tight and push them into the holes...

Feeding Dogs Garlic and Onion?
Try reading this, it has the pros and cons. I have always sprinkled a little garlic powder (not garlic SALT) on both my dogs food a few times a week. It does repel fleas, it does not kill the fleas. http://www.natural-dog-health-remedies.com/garlic-for-dogs...
Halloween Costumes For Big People?
I went a few years ago and bought a black graduation gown at a thrift store. I also bought a wooden hammer at the dollar store (actually a meat tenderizer hammer from the thrift store might work also) and went as Judge Judy... My husband went in a white sweat...
Stop Dog From Eating Out of Trash Cans?
A couple of things. How often do you feed your dog? If she is only getting food once a day, she may be hungry and looking for more if she hasnt eaten in hours. Split the food she does get into 2-3 feedings, it might help if she is only eating one time a day...
Feeding Pets Vegetable Scraps
My dogs love cooked green beans and carrots. My vet also told me to feed them solid pack pumpkin (canned) with organic non sweetened/non flavored yogurt, it helps their digestion and bowels. So when my dogs see me open the can of pumpkin and get out the yogurt...
