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 […]
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 […]

During a dog’s dream phase they can be often heard yipping and yelping in their sleep. Sometimes they even wake themselves […]
Napa has been easy to crate-train, thank goodness. The one thing our vet said to do, that would help us in the long term, is crate training. It’s really been a life-saver, because once he was used to, he’d go into a zen-like state every time we needed to put in him. He’s now like, […]
Napa gets dirty easy. He’s a muslin white color, but he’s still white. A day at the dog park typically means a day in the shower. Every dog gets dirty. It’s a fact of life. I like to think that if my dog isn’t dirty then he hasn’t been having any fun. So how often […]
