I'm taking the MPRE on Saturday and am using the Themis MPRE review to study. Does anyone have any idea what percentage of questions I need to be answering correctly on the practice exams to expect to pass? My state requires an 85 on the MPRE :( (booooooo hiss).

I have to move in about a month and am looking for advice on hiring a moving company. When I moved in my biggest pieces of furniture were new and were delivered by the companies I bought them from, so I have no experience with moving companies. I would just rent a truck, but I think it might take a professional to get my couch through the door. Any advice?

My parent's Golden Retriever has awful allergies. I really think she's trying to chew her own feet off sometimes. The vet at one time suggested she had a food allergy, but after trying her on just about everything with no results it seems this can't be the case. Benadryl doesn't do much either. The vet has had no real suggestions to help this problem and I'm concerned that the dog is susceptible to infection from all of the chewing. Recently my family got some raw local honey and it's done wonders for my allergies - does this work on dogs too?

I know rest days are really important, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to make the best use of them and still have that refreshed feeling of exercising. I started interval training a couple weeks ago before I found this (I couldn't get past a mile and I wasn't getting much better at it so I'm trying this instead) and since then have really started to enjoy that refreshed feeling after running. How do I get this AND faithfully observe my rest days?

Bloodhounds are one of my favorite breeds - I love the idea of the big hound laying on the porch. I'm not in a position to own one right now, but would love to live vicariously from any Bloodhound owners out there. Anyone here have good Bloodhound pictures/stories?

I'm making mixed berry pavlova for dessert tonight and just realized I forgot to pick up parchment paper. Is there a substitute or do I need to head back to the grocery store?

Any tips on finding and choosing a Newfoundland from any Newfoundland owners here? I'm planning to get a puppy in the next 6-12 months and I'm strongly considering a Newfie but am wary of bad breeders because I've heard so much about health problems. What should I watch out for? I do not mind traveling for my puppy.

Recently I decided I wanted to adopt a dog from a rescue. I am twenty six year old unmarried female who is finishing law school and looking to adopt a puppy within the next six months. I am also a certified professional dog trainer and hope to train my next dog to work in my office by emotionally supporting clients as they go through the legal process.

I was aware when I started looking that it might take quite some time to find a dog from a rescue that would have the appropriate temperament to work with a broad range of people in a broad range of settings. I know that I could train this into most dogs, but for the sake of the dog’s stress level I am looking for a puppy who is naturally to

I'm looking at training a dog for personal protection and was looking for advice on a couple of breeds. I'm particularly interested in Briards and Poodles.

I have experience training personal protection dogs and want to train a dog that will be an obedience and protection demo dog. This dog will also be a family pet for me and my family. The reason I'm looking into a purebred is that I want the best chance to have a dog with a temperament that will be highly trainable, have a strong protection drive, but also have an "off" switch. I don't want a dog that people are immediately suspicious of since this is a dog I plan to use for business which is why I'm not considering a GSD or Malinois.

I'm looking for chips that I actually have a chance of being able to find at the grocery store. I know there are some great local chips out there but I just want something I can put on a grocery list and pick up.

I have only had a handful of noteworthy injuries in my life but every time I do injure myself I feel giddy. Nearly everything seems funny and I start babbling like an idiot to anyone who will listen. Why does this happen? I'm not talking about head injuries. This happens if I sprain an ankle or cut myself accidentally. I'm assuming its some sort of weird adrenaline response but I've never heard of anyone else having this problem.
