There’s nothing more satisfying than cheering for the underdog and winning. However, before we define what nanny dogs are, we must clarify the term pit bull. For some strange reason, we lump five classes of dogs into one umbrella term. This group has gotten a nasty rap in the last few decades when so many […]
I’ve owned pets all my life, and it would be weird for me to live in a house without some form of pet present. Currently, I share my home, my bed, and my food (not by choice) with my two dogs, and I couldn’t imagine life any other way. Pets are an important part of […]
If you hadn’t witnessed it with your own two eyes, you wouldn’t have been able to believe it, but it happened. There’s your dog eating cat poop straight from the litter box. You’re going to feel a lot of things seeing this happen, such as disgusted, appalled, and confused! Why does your dog eat cat […]

At every place we’ve lived with our pups (at least six!), my biggest concern has always been if there was a fenced-in yard. My dogs like to roam free, explore, and sit outside, enjoying the fresh air. Giving them the freedom to do that is important to me! Now that I understand all of the […]
