I posted this past winter that I found a use for my 2 feet of snow as an excellent gate for teaching my dogs their weave poles. Well, the results
are back after 4 months of frozen toes & fingers.

My border collie got his first two Q’s in Weavers (something we’ve never been able to accomplish before). My rat terrier saw his first weave poles
ever in his first standard class & hit the weave poles perfectly. As a matter of fact, after Champ finished his weave poles, I almost forgot to
finish the course instead there was jumping & cheering on my part with Champ giving me the funniest looks.

We had a blast and now with warmer weather, and our first show of the year completed, we have new challenges to work on and look forward to the next show to test ourselves again.

Thanks NADAC for a fun way to work and challenge myself & my boys every day.

Justin C asked:


I believe that there are all kinds of animal parts in my dog’s food (?). Are there regulations regarding what kinds of animal parts are being put into his food? Is deer or elk meat put into dog food? I heard that dogs are not susceptible to prion diseases like cats, but I was curious if I was in danger when I handled Fido’s foods, and then didn’t wash my hands, and then ate a sandwich.

Kenj asked:


My neighbor informed me that she is infected with the Herpes virus- after she had been kissing/ playing with my dog. My dog now has a bump on his upper lip. Is it possible he could be infected? (Serious responses only please).

Brianna asked:


I have a dog who is about 4 years old and he is slightly overweight.
I am currently feeding him “Beneful” dog food, but I understand that that is not the best, healthiest dog food.
I plan to change him to Purina One-Healthy Weight and I was wondering if this is a superb choice?

Please, vets and experienced dog owners answer!

Lyssy asked:


I want to be able to bake my own dog biscuits for my labrador and chessie, but I don’t know where to find a good recipe.
It needs to be healthy, which is my main priority, but also it would be nice if all the ingredients could be found in one or two stores so I’m not zipping all over town.
Thank You.

JustMe asked:


I boarded my dog at a new place. A few days after she got home she started limping and was lethargic. I took her to the vet and she tested positive for lyme disease.

She is on antibiotics and is fine now, but I can’t help blaming the new kennel. Could she have been bitten by a tick from another dog at the kennel and developed symptoms within a week?
