Clipping a Duck's Wings

By lalala...

We got what we thought were 3 baby Indian Runner ducks last spring only to discover that one of them is a crossbreed (Indian Runner/Muscovy). Unfortunately that means she can fly, making it impossible for us to let them run around the yard periodically as we had planned.

Book Review: The Other End of the Leash (McDonnell)

"The Other End of the Leash: Why We Do What We Do Around Dogs" by Patricia B McConnell, PH.D was an excellent book. It explains a lot of what dogs are thinking and how they perceive our behaviors.

Keeping Your Dogs in the Yard

I have two half brothers. The past two-three weeks they have become quiet the escape artists! They've dug and pushed the fence out. The Lab/mix has either jumped the fence or climbed on to a table that was leaning against the fence. They usually only do this at night, but here lately it doesn't matter if I'm gone or home. They go roaming the neighborhood.
