    [Discussion] Consent and R+ 2.0 in K9 Sports/Training

This is not to be confused with permissiveness (asking means honouring the 'no' so you have a...

    My family decided to foster a gorgeous 1 y/o husky mix in early October.

Luckily he went into the woods and came up to...

    Dog with CHF, follow up Echo?

    Hi, So I have a 16 y/o daschund with well controlled CHF. He's currently on the same four meds he's been on for 2.5 years. Coughing is well controlled.
