He is a wonderful dog that I rescued but he has a few bad habits. I need to know how to stop him from digging.. He chews on paper(I give him rawhides constantly). He likes to playfully nip at your feet legs arms or butt. He is trying to get you to play when he does this(he gets walked twice a day). He is constantly wanting to play.

I going today to see my new puppy, he is still with his mother so I can't take him. I have not had a dog in a long time, the last dog I had was when I was probably 11 or so and I am now 23. My husband and I are getting a Maltipoo for my 16 month old. I have researched this dog to find they are smart and good with children. I just have never bought I dog before from a breeder we always had mutts when I was growing up and I just needed advice on what kind of questions I needed to ask. and what I needed to look for when I went to visit.

My puppy chews/eats every little piece of lint and paper she comes across. I left a roll of paper towels on the floor once, within 20 min, she had destoyed it. She is contantly finding pieces of lint and hair and whatever else and eating in. Why does she do this? Is it possible to get her to stop? More because I doubt it's good for her.

I have 2 yorkies. I am a college student and when I leave to go to class for 3 hours every other day I put my yorkies in seperate bathrooms. It's always been fine, but today I'm missing class because she's (the 3 month old yorkie) being horrible. Yelping so so so loud!!! She's never done this and she's done it the last 2 times. My other one is fine. I'm at the end of my rope! I can't keep missing school! Any ideas?? and NO I'm not giving my dog up thats not an option.

Hey, why do people hate Rotties so much. I have to say one thing, any dog will turn if in wrong hand, I love my Rottie, its people like some of you on here that judge ALL rotties as the same nasty breed. If you dont have a Rottie, then DONT complain about an animal you DO NOT UNDERSTAND. My boy has been brought up correctly and WELL under control. THANK YOU

I took him to the vet a couple of days back , and they diagnosed that he had a fever and allergies.Gave him medication for it. But he is acting very scared and paranoid around the house. Stares at empty spots, will NOT sleep on his pillow, does not like being left alone, very hyper , looks like he's scared and nervous. Has never been taught to get on the furniture, but yesterday when my husband and I got back from work he was sitting on the couch in my spot and this morning he was in my husband's chair!!
What is wrong with him. He seems very nervous and cautious about everything. Just not acting like himself at all. We don't think he's spooked by anything, coz he's a brave dog and would have gotten over it in a few hours if so . PLEASE HELP !

...how serious do you think this is? As I say, I will take her to the vet today after I get home from work. Will you please say a prayer for my poor kitty? I have no children, so I am really attached to her.
Will you say a prayer that my little Cindy will get well? Thank you so much.
