I do not know about the first thing but, The Whole Dog Journal is a very good little magazine that comes once a month. It has a lot of very good information in it such as training your dog, correcting certain kinds of behavioral problems, which dog foods are good and which are not and a lot of other interesting things about dogs. I used to get it about three years ago. I got their thing the other day also and am going to start getting it again.
