    Soft tissue injury?

    Hello all, Stella has had close to 6 weeks now where she doesn't place the full weight on her right, back leg when she stands and puts it to the side a bit when she sits. She seems to feel no pain and runs and jumps like normal. We took her into the vet and he didn't see anything wrong with...

    barking

    I had the same concerns about our dog Stella, she is 6.5 months old. She would bark for everything, but has now settled in to just barking for attention. When she wants to play she will come and bark at us or if she loses a toy under the couch she barks to get us to get it out for her. She...

She has started barking a lot, but the worst part is that she has started doing it after we give her a command that she doesn't like such as "No" when she starts licking our dishwasher or cabinets or tell her to get off the couch. It doesn't seem to be mean, but...

    Hi From Chicago,

    Hello, I have a 4 month old boxer named Stella. She is a flashy fawn with a docked tail, but we left her ears floppy. She is soooo cute and lovey! Probably too much for her own good. She is definitely a very social dog and my favorite cuddle partner. Anyway, I wanted to join BW so I...
