    Any dog owner can tell you that barking dogs are not appreciated especially by neighbors! At the same time, barking is a perfectly natural behavior for a dog. Its how they communicate. It really only becomes a problem when a dog barks excessively or at the wrong time (like 2 am when people are trying to sleep).

    Why do dogs bark?

    Dogs bark for different reasons at different times.

    To warn you (Theres someone at the door!) For attention (Pet me!) In frustration (My ball is under the sofa and I...

    If you check out Youtube youll find lots of water skiing dogs but none of them does it any better than Chibi Williams.

    Born to be wild, indeed!

    Chibi, who lives in Florida with owner David Williams, not only water skis (technically wake boards), but also rides a motorcycle. (We wonder if Chibi has a drivers license?)

    According to ABC Channel 7 in Tampa, Chibi was part of a litter or pups that was euthanized but Chibi somehow escaped and ran away....

    If youre a dog owner then youve probably taken a trip with your dog at one time or another. Its safe to say that some dogs enjoy traveling more than others. Many dogs love to travel and will actually bring you their leash when they see you packing or climb in your suitcase. You may have a hard time going out the door without taking your dog with you! But some dogs are not as happy about traveling. They can get carsick, for example. Planning ahead can make your trip with your dog go as...

    My dog, Brutus, is pampered like a small child. I have made sure that he gets the best of treatment. I guess that was not enough because I sensed he was restless about something and thats when I started searching for answers. I stumbled upon a simple fact that I had so easily overlooked that Brutus needed a cozy spot of his own where he could retreat. He needed his own BED! My immediate reaction was to look out for dog beds how difficult could it be? It was time for my second shock. Did you...

    Having your dog professionally trained is usually a good thing to do if you want a well-balanced, healthy dog.

    No Improvement

    Perhaps the main sign that the dog training you had wasnt up to par is no improvement in the issues you wanted...

    When warm weather arrives people naturally begin thinking about ways to enjoy the water. Many dogs also enjoy the water. While not all dogs are natural swimmers, most dogs can learn to swim if you take the time to teach them. Here are some things you should know about enjoying the water with your dog and water safety.

    Can all dogs swim?

    At times, pets can be irritating. Dogs are referred to as the most loyal pets and this is quite certain. But many a times, especially in cases where you are throwing a house party, pets tend to play spoilsport by roaming around the house. This is where pet resorts come into picture. These resorts are gaining popularity as they not only offer the most required training to your beloved pet but also help steal away the lonely time they might have to spend when you are on a vacation. These...

  • Dog Breed Groups (Part 7)

    from Pampered Dog Blog

    on Monday June 10th, 2013 at 02:20 PM

    Introduction

    All pure breeds of dog can be categorised by 1 of 7 groups. These categorisations are used by bodies that organise dog shows in order to ensure parity in high level competitions and it is possible for one breed to be in several groups. The names of the groups are loosely based on the specific function the dog has, for example there are Gundog, Utility dogs and Terriers to name but a few.

    Group 7 Non-Sporting Group

    Similar to the Utility Group, the Non-Sporting Group houses many...
