Why do dogs scratch themselves? Every time I hear this question, my fur shutters a little! Well, why do humans scratch themselves? Because we all get itchy! But seriously, I get asked that question all of the time, so I might as well publicly answer it. There are many reasons why we might start scratching. […]
It wouldn’t be a lie if my co-workers told you that I go through dog toys pretty quickly. Because I do. I’ve been known to destroy so-called indestructible dog toys. My parents have spent a lot of time and money searching for toys to keep me happy and occupied, but yet, I always seem to […]
Humans, you wouldn’t want to have an accident in your house, would you? Well, great news! Puppies don’t enjoy pooping or peeing inside, either. See? You’ve already started housebreaking a puppy in the best way possible – you and your dog are already in agreement! When dogs are puppies, we leave our den area to […]
I like to look and feel my best. As a GoldenDoodle, my furry hair requires regular trimming, but that isn’t the only reason my parents bring me to the groomer. I need to get my nails clipped regularly. However, if some time passes between my appointments, I don’t worry. My parents know how to trim […]
I am such a softie. Show me a picture or a video of a dog in need, and woof, I want to help. Call me a bleeding heart, but I just have to get involved and help a friend. I cannot sit back on my haunches and do nothing. You’re probably the same way! Have […]
Look, we really like our humans. We like you guys so much that we don’t enjoy being away from you for even a second. Some of us get real bummed out and pout, waiting at the door and willing it to swing open so we can see you again. Other dogs go wild when […]
I love making new friends, but not all dogs feel the same way. Some dogs get nervous; others are really fearful. I can’t figure out why that would be, but I’ve seen firsthand that sometimes, some dogs take a little warming up to the idea of making new friends. A lot of humans wonder how to […]
I’ll put it out there. I don’t like ticks. At all. I’ve got thick fur, and those creepy crawlers can easily get onto my skin and go undetected. So, basically, I have no interest in making an acquaintance with them. Besides the fact that they’re blood suckers, they’re bugs that make a home of your […]
Being a Rhode Island dog, you might think I travel to Boston all of the time, but that isn’t necessarily so. This week, my parents are traveling to Boston for work, and it’s my responsibility to find the best hotels that allow dogs so that we can all travel together. Wondering what my […]
Napa’s always been a picky eater. After a short time of eating the same food, he will eventually stop eating (yes, completely!) and then, after a couple days with no food intake, Napa will end up sick, vomiting bile. As puppy parents, it’s tough to see your dog be sick, and feel at a loss […]
