Hello, my name is Whitley and I am on a small farm in Duluth, MN. I have read and learned a ton on this site for years, ever since I hatched my own ducks and looked up info on tips for building my own incubator. I finally decided to actually make an account and join the community. I mostly come...
I’m not sure why. And I’m not sure how to fix it. I have a blue sapphire hen who’s around a year old. She’s not aggressive to any other birds, animals, or people. She just for some reason hates my younger dog. Both my dogs leave the chickens alone and she doesn’t have a problem with my older dog...
Just curious to see if anyone else keeps a dog who is not well suited to a farm. I've got one who is not meant for the farm life, I've tried many different training methods but I can't train his prey drive away, can't desensitize him, can't redirect him, and I don't see a future where he...
My dog has arthritis. The vet recommended a prescription of rimadyl for arthritis, which didn't help him all that much. Also after doing some research, I learned that it actually breaks down the joints over time anyway despite providing a feeling of relief for a while.
I started giving my dog...

This is just for curiosity sake and discussion. What do YOU consider basic obedience for a dog!? As in, what commands are essential for them to know. And what commands are basic obedience versus tricks!?
To me, basic obedience includes sit, stay, down, come, and heel and/or loose leash...
I’ve posted about just about every other breed out there including several of the other herding breeds like Border Collies and Aussies but I wanted to make one dedicated solely to SHELTIES (Shetland Sheepdogs) because I think they’re really neat little dogs and deserve their own thread LOL and I...
I think I might have already made an Aussie thread but it was a long time ago and I lost it and it totally died so I’m making a new one. Plus it was more about breed info anyway and I want this one to be more appreciation of the breed, stories, pictures, etc., etc. Though of course breed info is...
Like the title says, what kind of dog do you have!? Please share and feel free to post pictures if you want!!!! I’m just curious. Please and thank you!!!!
So I had a tiny chick named sprout that came from my Boyfriends chickens. What we believe happened was it hatched and hurt it's eyes on the egg shell but it's siblings pecked at them so they got taken out and given to me! We found out it was a girl, took care of her and shes almost/about a month...
Sadly, Pit Bulls often get a bad wrap for being "vicious" and "aggressive" but after owning 3 myself and spending time around many, I am determined to help educate people about this wonderful breed. Please take the time to read this article to educate yourself and others about what Pit Bulls are...

Hello everyone!
My male peacock keeps chasing my dogs. To the point they are all including himself out of breath. I’m not understanding what his problem could be. They are guardian dogs so they literally won’t do anything to him besides protect him. But the dogs are obviously exhausted with it...
