Please "google" "A Fresh Perspective Dog Training". Folks are out of Rio Rancho. Dominance behaviour in dogs means they are taking over because there is no clear leadership from "us" Training is always good, but behaviour modification requires US to…

Scoop bulletins

Scoop - We are the pulse and heart of Santa Fe's great animal-loving community.

Latest news: Remember in order to become a member of Scoop, you must indicate whether you have an animal companion and what his or her name is. Those who don't have animal companions must simply say what animals mean to them. It's a simple rule, but it helps to eliminate spammers or those with certain agendas.

LOVE TO READ? Like to share your thoughts about animal-related books? I'd love to start adding a link to favorite readings on Scoop. I have plenty of books that I'd like to share with like-minded people. Those who are interested in being a Scoop reviewer, please drop me an e-mail at bswan@sfnewmexican.com. I'll give you a list of available books.

It's Hunting Season - Hikers Be Careful

For those of you who hike in the woods with your dogs it might be a good idea to put bright scarfs on the dogs and wear bright colors yourself.

Today I was hiking about 1/2 mile from Big Tesuque Campground (up the Ski Basin Rd) and heard 3 loud gun shots very nearby. My dogs looked concerned but aren't too frightened by loud noises and they stayed with me. I had heard bow and muzzleloader season had started Sept 1 so I had scarfs on the dogs and Claudia offered to loan me an orange vest but it'… Continue

Sharkey - Where Do We Go From Here?

Since taking big biz to task and trying to hold the pharmacist responsible for his mistake didn’t work on any level I began to think about how Sharkey and I could make a difference using the talents we both have towards that goal.

After much thought and some suggestions from friends I decided that Sharkey can help her fellow animals by donating to different organizations that help animals and their owners in great need. With… Continue

To all the dachshund lovers (Thought this was a cute)......How God made dachshunds

God made a little dachsie to brighten up our day
He took a bit of sunshine, laughter, love and play
and rolled it up in a sausage shape just right for a hug with bright eyes full of mischief set in its little mug.
With little paws a pattering, to take it heer and there and a cold wet nose-but then He thought, "oh, what about the hair?
Shall I make it long and silky, or wiry, that's so sweet- or make it simple and have it smooth and satiny and neat? And what about the color-how can I pick just on… Continue

Sharkey's Story Continues - How Does One Little Dog Make A Difference?

Where do I begin? Most of you know the agony that Sharkey has been through in the past many months after being overdosed 10x the proper amount by a careless pharmacist. She has struggled valiantly and her liver enzymes have begun to return to normal. She still itches constantly, but I manage that as best I can without drugs of any kind. It’s a daily battle for her.

Sharkey now walks with me every other day. She can’t go as far as she used to, so I tailor my walk to fit her physical capacity and… Continue
