i was in pet smart not that long ago myself and what drives me crazy is the owners of little dogs that are aggresive and think the rules don't apply to them i had athen on leash standing in the petsmart line the lady in front of us had a little long haired mop terrier of some sort in her cart no leash on it it was growling and snarling and doing every thing it could to try and get at athena including trying to leap out of the cart and launch at athena the owner caught the little rat before it got to us and u held athena but this thing wanted to try and shredd athena no kidding and the owners attitude was whatever its not like her little thing could really hurt a 'moster sized' dog like mine anyways,herwords, but that is so not the point if her dog had attacked mine and gotten hurt in the process it's my 'monster sized' dog that would have gotten blamed

i feed athena chicken soup and at 5 mnths old the most we get is 4or 5 a day and usually 3 is more common.  all solid and not chuachua sized yet(boy is that what i have to look forward to) but it does definatly look like a 10 years old did it and not a 5 mth old puppy, as for scooping there is a clean up crew that comes around my neighbor hood and for $10/wk they will scoop and dispose of poop they will come around 2-3 times a wk

see i have cats so athena knows she's not one of those hissy fluffy cranky things that will not play with her she does however think she's a bird she will literally launch herself onto any piece od furniture that she can gain access to  and when leaving the house she completely skippys the steps and fly's over them to the grass below.  i love that pic of maggie she has these eyes that just say pet me pet me

 but hi! I'm Melissa, owned by a 7 almost 8 month old Newfoundland boy, Bava. Bava is eating Chicken Soup for the Dog Lovers Soul which is low protein.

my athena is 4 mnths too and they sound exactly the same i find the off lease workes great she runs and does zoomies in the grass and will come home and sleep for hours the biting thing i myself have not totally solved yet so no help there sorry

i'll see your reflection and raise you an abandan shopping cart.  we were out walking and came across a ordinary old shopping cart well athen snuck up on it sniffed it barked at it growled at it tried to bite ite and altimatly decided it was evil and to high tail it out of there.  my husband just about peed himself laughing at her.

be carefull of kennels that have dogs in runs.  when i was a kid i used to work at one and on really busy weekends they would overbook and the people that were gone the longest would have their dogs checked into the big runns and as soon as they were gone they would be moved into little vary kennels and let out a couple times a day from there.  then before there owners got back they would be moved back into the big runs for there people to pick them up the people non the wiser
