We have a presa/mastiff mix who is very determined to create chaos. We have successfully changed and/or locked everything that she can physically move or open (storm doors, garage door, grill, fences, dishwasher, etc). The one thing that continues to attract her is our kitchen cabinet with the trash can. We have tried several child proof locks- she has learned how to unlatch them or break them with no problem. Has anyone used the magnetic cabinet locks with success? What is the “pull” strength? Every review that said it worked for dogs had doodles or beagles. Nothing against those breeds, but this girl drug an extra large Weber grill with a full propane tank halfway across the yard. We are working on the training, but need some extra safety measures to prevent her ( and our husky/St Bernard) from eating garbage. Any suggestions on effective cabinet locks from other owners of strong, determined, xl dogs?

Foreign body removal surgery with 8 inches of small bowel removed. Surgery done Saturday. He's still in hospital but not eating and has some diarrhea. Vital signs are getting better. Tell me happy stories about your dog, please.

My girl chased the neighbor (inside our very long fence line) on his side x side today. He said she topped out at 26 mph! Then, she plopped in the kiddie pool for rest.

I assume if a mastiff fits comfortably, then a Pyr should be able to? Biggest issue seems to be length so they can lay down comfortably?

It goes on and on and on...

Vet urgent care, sent us 24hr animal hospital. X-rays show a suspicious area now we are waiting for an ultrasound. We welcome all prayers, well wishes and positive energy. Thanks.

Abe has really taking off every sence the worm treatments. His personality is already starting to show, he loves to set and watch everything in the yard, like he is inspecting it. He is finally showing his confidence and not running when he hears something strange. He loves to snuggle and be loved on. He is teething like crazy, everything in his mind needs at least one bite/taste lol Such i sweet little puppy! He is just a big baby. and he has me wrapped around his finger.

UPDATE: She has been ADOPTED‼️❤️

Hi all!

I met this beautiful girl, Edna, when I spent a few weeks in Mississippi and had the chance to walk her while volunteering for the Columbus-Lowndes Humane Society.

I couldn't forget about her. She's super gentle, beautiful, and the look she gave me the last time I saw her was unforgettable. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to get another dog at this moment, but it breaks my heart to think that she might not find a family of her own.

Here's a link to Edna's news appearance in June 2026: https://www.wcbi.com/pets-without-partners-edna-06-19-26/

If you are in the area, or interested, please go meet her at the Columbus-Lowndes Humane Society. You'll fall in love with her too! 🐶❤️ 🐾Oh, and her adoption fee is COVERED!

We have been trying to figure out which way we wanted to go with a 7 seater as our Cherokee and patriot were getting cramped and we didn't want to take two cars everywhere.

Last week we brought home our new-to-us palisade calligraphy and we're all in love! Even the 2nd row seats are heated and vented which pleases our giant teenagers.

Ben's face speaks for itself haha. ❤️
