I would just give you this one little clue: Keep the crate as close to the outside door as you can. Give her a toy or a biscuit to keep her occupied in there & also as a reward for going in there in the first place. Put a lead on the dog before she comes out of the crate, then take her directly...

Yup -- Sounds like some animals hugs/antics are in order here. I find the most relaxation in just watching or being with my quadrapeds -- either horses, dogs or cats. Even if they aren't doing something entertaining at the moment, it's just the honesty of their company that helps stress flow...

NOT SAFE -- If you are referring to regular cotton leads, just tie a knot close to the loose end. It becomes a stopper for the heel of your left hand. Also, the kids (and adults) need to know, it's better to let the horse GO when it takes off rather than getting a broken finger, hand, arm or...

If you put her in warm water bath.........keep the water warm, don't let it cool. When she comes out, dry her good (of course) but use a warm blow dryer to get that water off. A horse water-shed blade would also help take it off. Let her lay on & cover her with a human blanket. If she'll allow...

At my local feed store or Tractor Supply for $20 to $25. Weight to it so it helps put in the post plus handles that are part of the main metal in the pounder, so you can't break them off.

I'd be interested in hearing any personal stories too...I've seen the commercials, but commercials are meant to sell you something.... :new_multi:

I hope you are already calling him "Awesome Austin!" I remember how terrific he was at our open miniature horse show in Butler.

I used heat lamps for years to keep my early-born (cold weather) foals warm. I also used a heat lamp to keep my pot-bellied pig warm. The fire marshall determined that the fire in which I lost my barn and 15 horses (6 of which were pregnant) was caused by a heat lamp. Please don't use them...

Wow! Way to GO!!! :aktion033:

Here's another log on the fire: It's been said again & again, by Dems and Repubs alike, that George Bush will go down in history as the worst president of the U.S. EVER.........he has done more damage to this country than ANY president before him. Financially alone, in his first six years, he...

Couldn't you use a different phrase?

I object to the basic proposition that the "press" is automatically ignoring anything good. There isn't much good in a war, but this fellow seems to be. The fact is that from the very beginning of the war: You don't see the "same old" coffins. You don't see ANY coffins because the press was...

You then, are a success. It's hot as heck in here.

I say get over it because that little stupid affair had NOTHING NOT A THING to do with how the nation is run, how your money is spent and how well off the average American is. Nothing...........except perhaps a chance for the opposite side get to us to look away from things that they were doing...

All I can suggest is that you people do some real reading that isn't generated by Limbaugh or Fox News & find out what's really happening in the world. Let's see, 100 of the top scientists in the US came out in front of congress last week & said they've been pressured to keep the truth quiet...

Lisa - That would be like when my kids were little & watched studio wrestling then would have tag team matches in the living room for hours afterwards!

Oh, I forgot, you could also vote online for MVP -- I'm guessing that was Most Valuable Puppy.....I didn't go that far tho. And yes, I'm easily entertained!

On Animal Planet? I loved it! Silly as can be, but I watched it. I was a little disappointed in the Kitty Half Time Show, but liked the shots/comments of the dog audience watching TV. I missed the Tail Gate party, unfortunately. My dog watched some too. She'd be sleeping (on the couch, of...

I wanted to thank Geri for being so honest with me when she first asked about Merlin. You know, people can tell you absolutely anything & then turn around & do something else. But Geri was so upfront & understanding. She told me right off what she planned for Merlin & wanted to make sure it was...

Thanks so much........I appreciate y'all reading it. I'm so glad you liked it. :
