Would You Leave a Dog With Someone Who Smacked Your Dog In Front Of You?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 7 Nov 08

Do You Believe?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 31 Oct 08

I've lived in the same home all of my life- my parents bought the house a couple years before I was born, and now I own it (mom is here with me too). It's an old house, built in the late 1800's. We'd never had any "odd" things...

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 19 Sep 08

I think pretty much all of us have seen dogs that aren't taken care of very well. How far would you go to help the dog? Several years ago there was this little Labrador Retriever puppy tied up outside someones house- I seen it...

Can't Be Friends?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 12 Sep 08

I was really good friends with a girl in school- we were inseperable for many years. When we got to high school, we drifted apart simply because she dropped out of school and I didn't. The next time I saw her, she was dating a...

Earning Question

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 12 Sep 08

Does a users rating effect the amount of money they get? For instance, if someone with a star of 3 posted a response to a thread would they get less than someone who had a star of 10 who posted the same thing? Also, does...

Any Schnauzer lovers in mylotland? I have four male Miniature Schnauzers, and I don't think my house would be the same without the little monsters around!

Have I Lost My Mind?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 10 Sep 08

When I was a teenager, I was involved with a wonderful guy. But, being a teenager, I was wanting to go hang out with my friends all the time, and a relationship just didn't fit into that, so I split up with him. I've always...

Peticure (nail trimmer) Product Review

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 7 Sep 08

I'm sure you've seen the "Peticure" advertised on tv. The ad claims that it's the ONLY way to properly trim your pets nails so you don't hurt them. Since I do my own grooming on my dogs, I know all the tools used in grooming (I...

About a year ago, a guy bought the house next door to me. The house was in horrible shape, but he's fixing it up so that he can sell it and make a big profit. Joe has made incredible progress, and I've talked to him quite a...

I Lost One

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 23 May 07

Honey was a terrier mix that originally lived 2 doors down from me. I called the humane shelter on them numerous times for leaving her tied up to a 3 foot chain in the sun, no shelter at all, no water- and it was 90+ degrees...

Anyone Like GWP's?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 5 May 07

I've never personally owned one, however I have worked with many. They'd definatly be a breed that I could live with. Though some may be on the hyper side, they seem like a very well rounded good dog.

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 5 May 07

Though Brass isn't actually a CSI, I think he's the coolest one on the entire show. He always has a funny comment for nearly everything, very nicely dressed, and even though he started off with a rough relationship with some of...

Breeder, Pet Store, Shelter or Classified Ads?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 5 May 07

When looking to get a dog, many people don't know where to go. Classified ads are usually full of dogs bred by people who just bred their pets. There is usually no health testing done, no guarantee, and even if the dog has...

Bred to be Ratters?

sidyboy @sidyboy (284) • United States 3 May 07

Miniature Schnauzers were originally bred to hunt and kill vermin... rats, mice, you name it. I don't believe that instinct is still intact in my boys any longer. My 5 year old Miniature Schnauzer, Sidy Boy is pure attitude. He...
