I had a rescued pit named Yahtzee who was my service dog for my ptsd and anxiety before he passed a few months ago -
You can pm me if you have questions or I can just explain what he did/ how he helped?

    Thoughts on Wisdom Panel and how accurate it is? How is it compared to Embark?

Ah help, just a day left and I will be at a agility competition with my dog Chibi. This Sunday will be our first agility competition, i'm so scared yet so exited at the same time. Luckily one of my friends will also be attending with her dog for the first time so we have each other for support <3 (The springer spaniel I have mentioned here before)

So does anyone have any suggestions on what to bring? I have been at a Rally-O competition before so I know the basics like proper papers of the dog, water, high quality treat/toy and somewhere for the dog to rest while waiting on her turn. Also any tips I should have in mind from those who have competed before would be highly appreciated. I'm going in to have fun with my dog, getting a clear round would just be a plus.
Slowly getting back into CS after being on a 2 year hiatus, nice to meet you all again!

Sometimes he's too cute for his own good. ❤

How do I get this little guy to stop nipping? He has dozens of toys, chew and teething bones. He's 10 weeks old, so I get he's still young, but he's mean about it.

My two little weirdos! I was curious if Kestrel would hold metal in her mouth since it’s such a weird feeling/taste and some dogs won’t.

Poor Kessy is getting outgrown so fast 😂 O is only like 4 months old

You need to train him to inhibit his bite. Here are some videos to help you do that...

I currently have her on Hills CD but another vet in the practice is wanting me to switch to Royal Canin SO....I cannot afford that food. I don't know what to do and I feel like I'm failing Daisy and just feeling kind of crappy about myself.


I’ve heard RC isn’t a good food brand...? I could be wrong, though.

Royal Canin isn't the best but is widely recommended by vets:
Royal Canin wrote:ROYAL CANIN®’s Veterinary Diet ranges are available through your vet, and are precisely formulated for specific needs. This range of dog foods specialises in helping support obesity management, digestive upset and intolerances, mobility, renal function, skin care and much more.

My one dog is on it and has epilepsy. He loves it (but then again, he loves anything he can get down his throat) and my puppy on Chihuahua RC also loves the Vet RC.

I have a feeling if Oppie needed RC, he wouldn’t eat it. He barely eats his Blue Buffalo. 🙄😂
