    Caponize ?

    No, you don't need to caponize Rangers. It's completely optional. Some reasons to caponize non-commercial breeds are: reduce aggression in young roosters, control genetics, reduce noise in your chicken keeping, and of course those large tender older birds.

    First Run of Cornish Cross Meat Birds and Super Excited!

    Dogs were also not meant to sit on a chain with a dog house, especially nothe an active intelligent HUNTING breed such as a Ridgeback. While I'm not going to say physical punishment is outside the realm of effective, training the dog and having a relationship with the dog will work longer term...

    What is my dog mixed with?

    Impounded, your sweet doggie is called a Bully Breed Mix, or BBM for short. A BBM is any short coated, small to medium sized dog with obvious bully-breed heritage.

    What is my dog mixed with?

    Yes! The term "pit" just describes a look, while the American Pit Bull Terrier is a breed.

    Expectant parent club! Where the pregnant people hang out.

    I have not updated on my pregnancy for a long time. I don't spend a lot of time here any more. But with that said, I am now 20 weeks and 4 days pregnant with a healthy and very active baby. Things have been difficult because for some reason this baby wants me to think the worst and be scared...

    Possible Coyote mix?

    Not a purebred GSD. I'd say GSD x husky or husky mix. That coat is too open and too much undercoat showing to be fully GSD. Pretty dog :)

    Cousin-in-law having a hard to getting daughter to take a new bottle after surgery.

    A child over a year old doesn't need a bottle in the first place. If she is old enough to hold a cup she should work on getting the kid to drink out of that instead, maybe using something other than milk or formula.

    Conformation Shows

    Yes, I do like the West German Show lines, such as with this kennel. I wouldn't buy ASL however, but I would adopt one. I nearly did last year. Fostered a White ASL ***** for the Humane Socieity here. She was a doll and had a good mind.

    Conformation Shows

    As for moving as fast as GSD in AKC conformation. The SV style shows I have attended (which was two, for full disclosure) had the dogs not only trotting as fast as their handlers could keep up with them, but they were also doing it for 20+ minutes at a time, and for a dog that moved on to...

    Conformation Shows

    I don't think she is talking about AKC showing. There's not a judge of AKC Am-bred sheps that would put her dog up. However I think the European lines of GSD are far and away more "functional", sane, and useful as a breed. I've owned both American/Canadian lines and Czech/East and West German...
