To many unknowns at this point. Id say 50/50 on the dog. If it was a pred. it should happen again. Same with the dog if he/she gets out again. Simple test: Let the dog out and spy on him/her, meaning provide a way for it to get out without people being present. If he/she killed 8, should...

no self respecting GSP is gonna hit any Britt. (and vise versa)

Very typical, mine do the same. If they don't finish their food, the like to guard it. With mine, it seems as though dominance changes from time to time I feed them 15 ft apart. Sometimes Ill go out back and watch thru a window. They constantly watch each other, and if one leaves the garage...

I have a friend who has a GSP/GWP cross. His looks all GSP while others in the litter look more GWP. A few monthes ago his changed from liver to black, at between 2-3 years of age. I've never seen this before, has anyone else?

Yes calamari that's the one. it's scary parking your vehicle and leaving it there plus there is so much trash I worry about the dogs cutting their feet. back when I did that it was in the 90s you used to be able to drive down for South Road to the bypass area. I just kept following roads and...

Sacramento Wildlife area is bad, but close and easy. Back in the early 90's you could drive in a ways, in fact once I drove in there and came out in Woodland. That was a fun day. Where is yolo at? I went to one outside Woodland last year, that may have been it. Id be happy to hook up with...

I do 2 different things. 1 attach a small bright flashlite to the dogs collar. That way I can keep track in the dark. 2 I found a office complex that is somewhat lit at night, especially the parking lot. It has a ton of landscaping, even in the parking lot. There are quail that live there...

I copied DakotaZeb. At least I thought so at the time. My name is Rod and I was from Fair Oaks CA

Rained more than we expected in Loomis this morning. Pretty hard for 3-4 hours.

Took her to the vet and did an xray. She a some sort of mass somewhere around her stomach, which is pushing different organs toward her hind quarters. She also has fluid around her lungs. The vet (without doing more testing) believes the mass in cancerous. We don't want to see her suffer any...

Thanks for the input. This is going to be a sad ending. Thanks for the support.

My 11 yr old GSP stoped eating and her stomach is a little bloated and seems to be in some minor to moderate discompfort as she whimpers from time to time. Did a little research on line and read of a possible stomach flip/inversion... Does anyone have any insite on this. The dog has been in...

Twice in the last week, the dogs have found something crunchy, they obviously want to eat, that they are coughing back up in 5-10 minutes. (closer to 5) My first thought is intentioinal poisoning. Both sources were 50-75 yards apart. Any insite?

Both are very simple to point. Now, getting to hold.........

Fine looking dog, and smart too. Welcome. PS. He wasn't shivering, we was having a nightmare that he was a lab!
