Sam is an American Hairless Terrier owned by Jordan, living in Alberta, Canada. His training is being owner managed, thanks to the new legislation that passed August 1, 2017. He is hopefully going to be a psychiatric service dog! Feel free to reblog anything, including photos of my dog and person stories.

Met up with @the-adventures-of-dave yesterday and it was quite fun. Mostly stayed masked or distanced and we are both vaccinated. We finally got to do our Galaxy Day, just a year later!
I got to pet Kepler a bunch and she got Sam to do some tricks!
The first half of the video is the way Sam insisted on sitting in the car and the second is Sam doing tricks!
Happy gotcha day Sam!!! Four years ago I flew round trip to Nashville airport to pick up this tiny hairless puppy. I was a swirling mix of anxiety and excitement, terrified that I was duped and he was just a shaved rat terrier puppy. This pup immediately won me over so completely and it seems like I won him over as well. Even by the time we got to Edmonton airport in Nisku he wasn't willing to let me out of his sight. He cried the entire time I was in the washroom and immediately snuggled back into my arms. That night he slept under the blanket snuggled in between my chest and my arm as the little spoon. He now prefers to sleep with my legs as a pseudo bolster bed and will forcibly move my legs so he can get snuggled with his head on my knee. There have been a ton of ups and downs but he's a sometimes frustrating but always adored little guy. Cheers to four amazing years, pup.
So a few months ago I posted about how Sam's collar popped open during a walk and he had a delightful run in a big circle. Since then I've only used it for our trip solely to the car and to the mailbox. I made sure the collar was oriented opposite to how it was the first time (buckle to the right of the collar loop rather than to the left) but since then it has opened more than once, specifically the buckle popping open. It seems to pop open even if only one side is pressed while there is pressure on the collar. Today it popped open with the same amount of pressure as like pushing an elevator button.
I would absolutely not use this collar for anything other than purely for holding tags. It has proven itself to be a completely unreliable!
It's the Kong Comfort collar in the smaller size and it looks like this:
If you or anyone you know has this collar please let them know of this potential issue.
Apparently he looks like a little kid who has just been picked up from school and is pouring now because mom said we can't get McDonald's on the way hone
Cinnamon Bear, Bryan Davies - Here is the bedroom we finished for our rescued shelter cat (Wyatt) this weekend. He actually goes in to nap and watch birds on YouTube :). Fame hasn’t gone to Wyatt’s head, even after he got an article by Stephen Messenger @dodo !
Question for you! This hasn't been an issue yet as it has been cool enough to keep my xolo clothed, but summer heat is approaching and I was wondering if you had any ways you particularly like for preventing chafing from harnesses if on direct skin? Every harness that has linings they aren't on the straps which are what I worry will chafe so I was wondering if you have any advice to share on that topic :>
No problem at all! I haven't had an issue with harnesses rubbing. Most dogs have very little hair on their armpits and chest /stomach. My backup plan had been to get an SPF onesie such as the hurtta sun suit if the straps ever left became an issue
