Very sorry to hear… what a beautiful girl.

A few highlights from the year almost gone, to show what Miles has been up to. He just turned 3, at the end of November. Lots of hiking in the mountains or nature parks... But we visit a city dog playground from time to time, believe it or not, and have made a few friends there. Hope everyone...

This is wonderful!! Happy B-Day J!

Very sad…. hugs.

Lovely pictures!

Love it!

Lol, yes! Familiar with the problem! Both my Ridgebacks when they were puppies loved sticks, grass, all that… (which would then come out the other end in sometimes weird ways). Bottom line here - both eventually grew out of sticks. Occasional vomiting was not extraordinary pleasant, but there...

Love this story! She is a ridgeback!

Miles is not a fan of hot and humid days, so we have to go to where water is, even if it means 30 min drive each way. On the water he perks up. Today the only playmate was 11 y.o. He did his best to keep up with Miles, but quickly settled in the shade for a nap, leaving Miles to entertain...

If some dogs keep their distance because you are big and wild - here is a quick guide how to pretend that you are small and quiet, and to lure them closer

Miles has many strong points. Catching things is not one of them :D

One thing at a time! This is Gooood!

Yes! Except the last one. Enjoy everything! Sense of humor is a great defense mechanism too!

A warm, soft, hairy, big, hugging puppy, sharing a sofa - this would be a dream! This would be incredible therapy in our stressful life! I would love this! Unfortunately, my own dog seems to be growing out of it, and our hugging moments on the sofa are less frequent than they used to be (and...

Different cultures, experiences etc. approach works, but up to a point. There are cultures where dogs are considered food. While respecting diversity of experiences, I doubt I will be engaging in discussing recipes, for example. Where that “point of tolerance” is - probably depends on the...

We use Frontline. It's OK to use on puppies (I believe from 8 weeks), but - it's not the most effective solution. Not the most effective, but on the other hand - not as potentially harmful as some others. When selecting tick prevention approach - we went with the milder one. This means that we...

Go out early, meet other dogs - a great start of the weekend!

This is as good as it can get on a "walk" for Miles. Letting 3 monster dogs (well over 300 lbs / 140 kg combined ) run free in a nature park can only happen when there is no one else there. In this case - rainy late afternoon. But what's getting a little bit wet when you get to see them play...

Lovely!

I would scratch the Ridgeback off your list. The one point it scores high on is “thinking for itself”.... the rest - hit or miss at best, and no self-respecting Ridgeback goes out in cold and rainy weather.
