I think that should say heiffer....not pony. I've seen ponies smaller than St. Bernards

My goodness what a super cute little boy Binx is Welcome to PT, sweetie. I hope his dental appointment is quick and easy, and he can get his teeth back. That is very odd, and I don't believe I have ever seen anything like it on a young dog. I have seen dogs who have had their teeth pulled by the vet, but I have never seen a pup w/o any teeth. I hope he's getting along fine with the tuxies. Boy has their world changed...not only a DOG, but a magnificant one at that!

I absolutely can't WAIT to meet him at the dog park!

[mugsy]

GSD, there is a Pet Talk meeting in Findlay, OH on May 25 at the dog park. I don't know where you are in KY, but you're welcome to come.

[GSDgurl]

Mugsy-- thanx for telling me....I would love to come...but I dougt I could interest my Mom in takin me all the way up there. sry but im sure it will fun~! n' Thanx for inviting me~!

[Cataholic]

OK, let me see if I can answer all the questions....

I THINK he is a long haired St. B. His hair is definetely longer than a boxer's (my point of reference), but not as long as a golden. From what I read, he appears to be a long haired.

Karen- thanks for the 'relief' on the food!! He is eating six cups a day of food. For the first time this am, Binx had dry food. I soaked it for about 20 minutes, while he did the hungry dance, and down the hatch it went! I also used half the amount of wet food, mixed in. I already have the lunch portion soaking, so it should be good and soggy by that time.

Binx walks like a champ on a lead. We are already working on left side only heel, sits at side walk crossings, and downs...he will be entering a basic obedience course on May 1st. He doesn't jump up, which is good. He likes to gnaw on arms...he he he, and positive reinforcement is taking place daily. His worst thing is going after the cats. This is the only area I am currently using "no" for. I will probably invest in a squirt bottle, with a little lemon juice in it....I CAN'T have the cats traumatized, and puppys grow into big boys...and harming a kitty is a remote possibility. He really has the potty stuff down, and I am really going crazy reinforcing it.

Slobber...well, this will be an issue. I will learn to walk him with a cloth (so that people will want to pet him), and I wipe him with paper towels after eating and drinking- if I am aware he is drinking. I just see some living changes being made....maybe no white rugs in the bathroom?

Guys, I wish you all could be here with me (tho the house is a little small). He is such a sweet boy. My neighbor boy, Michael, is in love with him, and went on a walk with us last night. Binx was so good with him. I intend on socializing him to peices.....I just don't know how much exposure he has had to things like crowds, trucks, stores, car rides, babies......

I am a little overwhelmed with the whole thing, I must admit. I am so worried about the kitties. They do come first, followed by Binx, then me. I am going to make a schedule....as I am already neglecting my work outs...so that I feel we all are getting our needs met. I think in 30 days all will be calmer in the herd house.

Lots of pictures are in the future. Digi cams make it all so simple. Binx is already sooooo excited about Findlay! He can't wait to meet all his cousins. I have a strange feeling he has his eye on Huney already. Sorry Huney!!
