@Sara, Loli is really looking good!

NP. ;) Really the main reason I knew it is because of research into Boxers kinda led me into research of Bully breeds in general.

Thanks! She's kinda PO'd at me right now cause I haven't been able to walk her D:<

It must just be me, but Lolita still looks obese to me :/
Creed looks off to me, so something about him looks wrong.

Lolita is looking so much better! Hope she continues to improve.

Darkvoodoo, considering her health issues and everything, Sara is doing amazing getting her weight down. I'm sure Sara would be happy to show her earlier pictures.

Creed is so dang cute! Congrats Jazi!


On my dogs front, Chewie was way to excited to do any training with today :( but hopefully we can get a bike ride in sometime soon and work with him afterwards.

Princess did pretty good! I mean besides having the attention span of a ant, she did great! She remembered exactly where I put the boundary, and was really good about staying in it/stopping at it. I was able to put her at a sit stay on the boundary (which is my open gate) and go all the way across the street with her staying. With a load of distractions too! (Chewie was barking inside, my neighbors dog was wandering, and cars were going past the other street)

Pictures and a video will be up later.... When I'm not tired.

Hello, I have posted here a while back and I have a question to ask.

I own a 150ish pound presa canario dog, and I am started to get into running and walking. So I have gotten interested in taking my dog down the road. But I would like to be able to go to Parks or down a dyke for a afternoon. So that means I would have to transport the dog around. The only problem is he fact my boy is scared of cars, and I am not even sure why because he loved them as a puppy.

But I drive a Mazda 3 and I would be giving my dog all the back seat and the trunk space so he would have one large flat surface. So there is room for there. My older dog which I used to own was just a little smaller and fit fine so space isn't a issue. But what are some things I can do with my dog for him to finally get into my car..and just a warning, treats and dog food as rewards do not work, he will not them em.

Lolita is at 6, possibly leaning a bit towards 7. I can feel her ribs by just pressing in ever so slightly and she has a slightly visible waist when viewed from above. Like I said, I'm not happy YET with her weight but I do believe she is fairly close. She really does have a ton of excess skin that's hiding her physique. I can literally grab a handful of skin off her back. Dog might as well be a AKC show-line shar pei.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, her abdominal tuck up is visible as well... If you look through all that loose skin sagging down. As well, remember that she keeps her legs under her due to her bad knee (and probably the arthritis) which makes her appear to have less of a waist. Then there's the fact I have a weird tendency to take photos of her from her right side. Which is the side with the bad knee. The muscles in her rear legs are more developed and visible on the left, her good leg, and she generally keeps her good leg a little bit further behind her then her bad leg.

Do you know exactly what it is that looks off about him? I've picked out his confo faults, but it pays to have a second glance.

I have been so busy, but I am finally starting clicker training with Izzy, hoping that she catches on to it quickly so I can start working with her whole being scared of random objects and stuff. Besides that she is going to be a year old in July which is sad, time really does fly by. On top of that I leave for college soon, so I won't be seeing her or my other doggies very much :/ I just hope my mom keeps up with what I want her to do. Luckily she will only be staying with my mom for a year. Plus I have volunteers from the dog park who want to pick her up and take her with them, as well as a friend of mine who is staying here for college who will probably help my mom out with as much as she can. Then my sophomore year of college I will be taking her with me, as I will be living in an apartment/house by then :)

Creed is adorable Jazi, congrats! I know how much you love Dobies ^^

-excusemenothavingadoghah- Anyways, I walked my friend's dog last night, with several other friends. What I've noticed is that she pulls, A LOT. Like to the point where I have to run to catch up with her. Her family uses a prong collar to control her, but even that she pulls a ton, it's worse when she doesn't have that collar on. I want to give her some advice about controlling her pulling without using those prong collars. I've heard halters work, but I'd like to get your guy's opinion. She's a 60-70 lb(don't know her exact weight) silver lab. Thank you!
