Dogs
All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

I make my dogs fresh cooked meals once a day, and they have Kibbles n Bits the rest of the day if they want more. They pretty much leave the kibble alone except once in a while when the husky is particularly hungry.
If their taste buds are even a remotely similar to ours, I definitely understand this. I wouldn't wanna eat the kibble either. It smells weird. It probably tastes gross. The chicken, rice and veggie combo I make is good even without seasoning (though if I was making it for me I am definitely seasoning it).
But then they can't get enough milkbones, which are just hard tack biscuits (essentially just flour and water). ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
