Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.
Subject: Had a scare today with our 14 year old Denali Mon Feb 18, 2013 5:04 pm
I came home and as usual the dogs were excited. I petted each of them and put a few groceries away as I normally would. I had to go bathroom real bad and while I was going, I heard our senior crying out and after having her for 13 1/2 years I knew it was a cry of pain. I ran out of the bathroom and found Kodiak harassing her as she was spread eagle on the rug in obvious pain. So I grab Kodiak by the collar and pulled him off and then helped Denali get back on all fours. She was limping for awhile but now seems ok. I don't know if Kodiak was trying to play or dominate her. He seems to snip at her everyonce in awhile especially when biscuits are involved. This is a new behavior out of him towards her so i am not sure what to make of it. Any suggestions on what to do to protect her since Kodiak is big enough to hurt her?
