I recently found out my dog likes cooked green peppers and rice cakes....(not together!). What foods does your dog like that you didn't imagine he would?

Hi,
I recently (6 weeks ago) adopted a rescued australian shepherd mix (father possibly some type of terrier.). He is now 9 months old and is a wonderful dog. He is submissive at home and shows no signs of dominance. He is great with my five year old twins. He has never shown his teeth for any reason.
When we go outside for walks or to the park to walk he will bark when he sees peolple and he will bark and get very excited to see other dogs. He does not want to attack anyone but the barking is loud and I am having trouble stoping it. I have been trying a squrit of water in the face with mixed resulta and also being stern, etc. He will not show teeth or growl angerly but he seems to really want to meet the other dogs..if we do get up to another dog the barking stops and he exhibits very appropriate socializing such as smelling parts, etc. and all barking stops.
I truly believe he would not harm anyone. We have started basic obedience.Appreciate any advice to correct barking

My cat that I just adopted is about 5 years old. Her name is Teegan, but I would rather have a name that's more like me (I'm a music nut, I want to call her something musical). She already knows her name, though. Is it a good idea to rename her?

I have a min pin who is about a year old. She seems to be pretty smart when it comes to getting her way, but when I want something (like for her to stop having poo inside) she turns into the stupidest dog ever. She is very fiesty and continually picks fights with the two other dogs I own, even though they are much larger than she is. She won't let them eat or drink and she is generally very mean to them. She is quite playful and never seems to "settle down". I know that these dogs are high strung, but is she normal?

I wish I could adopt from a shelter but its just to much money to do so. I am looking for a small cute puppie or younge adult dog (small) for my daughter. We have lots of love to give and will provide the best care in the world. My wish as a mommy is to own a itillian (sp) greyhound. We did adopt a greyhound but BTK killed him before we moved from Kansas, can anyone help?

No, it's not what you might think!

Whatever we end up getting -- male or female -- we will spay or neuter. So are there any advantages of having a cat of either gender?

Are there any health concerns related to specific gender? Behaviorial tendencies?

We are hoping this will be an indoor cat, although we had a cat many years ago and once it got the taste of the outdoors we just couldn't contain it.

We have two boys (kids, not cats), if it helps answer this. The six year-old is more rambunctious; the 12 year-old (for whom the cat will be a present) is quiet.

Advice? Thanks.

This is the main page, and I'm thinking of adding more pages. Just wondered what people would be interested in seeing from a dog trainer on their webpage.
