My other dog, Fuzzy Kat, is an 8-year-old puppy. She's constantly happy and full of boundless energy.

They're just great dogs.

Poppy is a cool looking Mutt. Love Husky mixes. Once saw a Corgi Husky mix. Perfect Corgi body with a Husky head, fur and coloring. One of the most bizarre looking dogs I've ever seen.

AWWW the second pic! Good luck with the cone o' shame. I'll probably be coming back to the thread in a few weeks for advice on how to care for a small dog that just got spayed and had a limb lopped off. We have a wagon for her. She likes walks :)

Just saw a thread about Corgi mixes (maybe here). Corgi dominates the genes and all Corgi mixes have Corgi sized bodies.

I think I mentioned somewhere that we watched a preview of the first 2 or 3 episodes of that show (The Pack). Amazing Race, but with dogs. It looks like they picked it up and it premieres on Prime on 11/20. Going on the watchlist.

Everyone got a walk yesterday (then we push Poppy in a stroller for the rest of it and get weird looks from the neighbors.)

Any suggestions for a tug rope for a 25-pound puppy who just destroyed a three-loop braided rope over the course of a week?

It’s not a rope, but Kong toys are the toughest ones out there. Some cream cheese inside a Kong will entertain a pup for awhile.

We have one of those, also. He likes playing tug of war... almost as much as he likes eating the rope.

Yeah, ours, too. We have a tough braided rope that is great for tugging. But, I don't know the brand name.
