1) Feed separately. NO high value food or treat items in the mixed pack.
Period.
2) If it is a lot of talk and noise, I step back. If it is a true dogfight,
I break it up.
3) Not every male dog can tolerate other males or new males or young males
in his space--there are no male dog visitors allowed

I forgot the most important part, if you are going to be in this household long term,
I would strongly suggest seeing a qualified animal behavorist for some consultations
-- one who uses POSITVE methods to help you work thru the issues w/ the dogs.

My Berner does have allergies, he sneezes and has a runny nose usually during allergy season. We have given him allergy medicine and it seems to work in the short term to keep his runny nose and sneezing to a minimum.

I'm about to send a puppy to it's new home in a Sherpa bag. The pup was 20
lbs yesterday and we still have 5 days to go before the new owner arrives.
Have any of you had problems getting a pup of this size to fit in a Sherpa?
They are using Delta which doesn't seem to have a weight restriction but

When I say to move, it means go someplace else, not switch positions with

Hi!
We wil be on vacation in the Old Forge NY area august 17-22. Just wondering if there
are any BMD activities going on? Also wanted to know if there are any good areas to

love the cool weather and shade trees!

Radha,
Excellent question! And I think it's one that a few people have
addressed in their emails to Cabela's. I think the biggest problem some
of us have with the situation is that stores sell to anyone with money.
A pet store is only interested in the sale, they are not motivated by
the long term

Your letter touched me and I had to write Cabelas. I hope enough other Berner owners,
not yet on holiday, take the time to write them as well. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi Deborah,
Oh yes you have got a problem:-) Chessies are tough dogs and you and Henley
are the visitors, this is not a long term arrangement so you must honour
the house rules and fit in as best you can. I would not leave my male dog

I think another approach to Cabelas would be to encourage them to sponsor
field trial events and demonstrations of hunting dogs' skills, to run
information booths about the various types of breeds typically found in
