Sadly, we had to have our beautiful German Shepherd, Daisy euthanised last Saturday.  She had been losing weight for a month, and wasn't eating much at all.  She had also startedpeeing in our enclosed porch where we keep her...

I really don't see what's wrong with them wanting you to agree to spay or neuter if you aren't going to show.  These breeders have worked long and hard to build up their line, and don't want someone carelessly breeding what they've...

One 4-week-old male (intact) pot belly piglet.  Very cute, black with 4 white socks, white blaze on face and white tip on tail.  Two female pot belly piglets, born 11/21/11.  Both a pretty much solid black.
