Today my Pyr mix had his last Liv-a-Snap - These have been discontinued - I've been giving this treat to different dogs going back more than 30 years... Murphy doesn't like any dry snack as well as these. 😢
All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here.
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.
Yes, it is funny how picky our pets can be these days - if my grandfather were still alive he would think we were all crazy for buying special snacks for our dogs - he’d just get a bone from the butcher and be done with it 😊
