What is your main principle on training your dog?
Like for me it is always without aggression it is all about gentle cohercing.
I don't have any behavioural problems with my dogs do you?

I know that I should not argue with her, cause he can attack me to "defend" her.
She tickles him and when he laughs he show his fangs...

Whenever I go to feed him he swims away and when i'm cleaning out the bowl and I need to get him out he always swims away and I can never catch him, even with a net! It's quite a struggle. Also, he just got over finrot, so I thought, but now the part of the fin that was covered in white-ish gray coating is coming apart. But he still seems happy, just completely afraid/unresponsive to me. How do i get him to no longer be afraid?

We want to get a dog for our family but we don't know what breed to go for. We work full time so the dog would be home alone for 9 to 10 hours every day. we want a SMALL dog that can be trained easily. We looked at teacup poodle and bichon but these 2 cannot stay alone for so long without being miserable. What kind of small breed could you recommend?

I sent pics. as well informing everyone promised, the pups arrived. Mom, (Cinny) first time Mom, did amazing, one of the easest births I have assisted I have assisted in several animal births, work with animals all the time, nothing new to me. I did make it well known to start with, to the promised owners I did not want them coming by for at least 2 weeks,with only me here, it is quiet and it needs to stay that way, Mom does not need to be excited. Again, I clearly stated this morning, repeating do not come by. I even called when these few people ignored this. Did they listen, NO. I am sure you can guess what was said, 1. You didn't mean me? 2. I burned gas getting here 3. to almost forced entry by means of trying to open the door with me blocking it. It caused Cin to become upset, of course. I was accused of caring more for a dog, (Right on the nail) at this point, to cursing me, I reminded them this was a curtiousy to them, that I own this home, amoung other things, was I wrong?!

My dog, Zoey, like when you scratch on her back by her tail. But when you get a closer look, there is a bunch of black stuff all over that area! It is so gross! I give her baths like 2 times a week but they are STILL there! I have a flea collar on her and she isn't old enough for frontline (I think). But it is just really gross. So anyone know what to do?

I just got a new bunny, very cute, young and loves to jump all around. However when its in my room hopping around, to relax it sometimes just rolls over onto its back and relaxes there, like its sleeping. When I come over to pick it up it rolls right over again to an upright position. It scares me sometimes because it looks as if its playing dead! Rabbit experts....is this normal? Is there something wrong with its inner ear?

My other kittens lost their baby fangs sooner than this, and now I'm worried. All 4 fangs (old set and new set) are almost all the same size. Is this normal? His gums look OK, but I can tell he's irritated. Has this happened to anyone else? I'd prefer to let nature take it's course, but if this sounds like he needs a vet, let me know please.

Pets are expensive!! We are trying to save some money on heartworm and tick prevention by going through pet meds. Some people are hesitant on ordering from them saying that you don't know what your getting. Pet Meds say however that they are a licensed pharmacy. So...do you order from pet meds?

They say she is fine and not going blind, they dont care about her at all, i cant believe them, they are so irresponsible and i have said that to them, so what are the other signs of cataracts? maybe if she has more signs they will take her to the vet, plus the vet called like 3 months ago saying she is overdue for her shots, and they are too lazy to take her cause she's an inside dog and wouldnt get rabies or anyhting, again i cant belive how irresponsible they are, they should not own a dog, good thing im takin her with me when i move out, btw, im 16 and i dont have a job, so no money.

hi, i'm a 13 year old girl and i just recently got a kitten. I have been picking off brown spots, and thinking that it was the fleas, i pinched them in half, hoping to kill them, and thing threw them away. Just recently, I found a REAL flea jump from Brody's (my cat) eat to his neck. ew. anyways, i knew that the brown things werent fleas then, and looked them u to see what they were. I read that they are probley droppings from the fleas. EW again. I also read that when cats or dogs scratch, the eggs and droppings get sent to the floor. and THEN i read that the eggs hatch in 7-10 days. i have a dog which has front line on him, and Brody is also old enough to have frontline and we just put some on today. But i am worried about my rabbit... And i dont want our house to be invested with fleas, so what should i do? I read Vaccum but is there any easier way? or will frontline just kill everything, even the eggs?

Ok, i need tips. My dog is 2 years old. I love him more then ever. He has been acting naughty though. My parents being lazy and skipping training are just going to give him away. It is unfair. They put him in his kenel when they at work for 7-10 hours. And expect him to hold whatever he has to. They are being unfair. Help!

He usually runs the yard in the daytime and he goes to a pond outback. Lately I have been bringing him in the house d/t the cold weather. I bought him a new pet bed and he gets rambunctious at nite while the family are sleeping and tears up everything.. newspapers, vacume hose, shoes, gets into the garbage. ripped up his new pet bed. Should I crate him at nite or what?

I wanted to know are they good with kids? Are they sweet puppies? The one we are getting is 3 months old! We had a pug and it was a nightmare he was wild and bite our kids and we had to give him away and we have heard nothing but good things about shih tzu's so I wanted to hear from people who have them and kids?

it was a very peaceful afternoon.
as i took out the other dogs for a early morning walk and left him with my fiance. i thought i take him for a long walk just the 2 of us. spend some quality time just the two of us. he was soooo very well behaved. i was amazed. he was let off leash and followed me around. we ran around together and then we went home.
he was fed pretty much immediately as he gets very moody when he is hungry and that is normally when he attacks the other dogs over toys or water etc.
he finished his entire bowl of 1 cup of dry food and two big spoons of wet food. which surprised me as he normally eats 3/4 of that but today he ate all.
he then got treats with the other dogs and he was very well behaved.
he even shared his pig ear with the other dog.
so i thought finally he would be calm and non-aggressive now. as it's been almost over a week since he last attacked my other dog. snapped but not attacked.
anyway i was about to put them to bed.

My puppy (well, she's about a year and a half) has a spot on her side that was thinning, and is now bald. Tonight all of a sudden she has started crying, like she would do if someone had stepped on her paw. She does it randomly, and it sounds as if she is in pain, but then will be fine. It's late so I can't take her anywhere right now, but I'm wondering if there might be something seriously wrong?

I'd like it to be 3 step. My trainer has this mounting block that the lid flips open and its also storage seems pretty cheap to me if you could tell me where to get one of those that would be great.
Thanks!

About keeping my golden retriever outside:

My first dog I got when I was very young, and my parents chose to keep her outside, letting her stay inside only when the weather was too cold. She was a golden retriever, and contrary to what I've heard, she did great as an outside dog. She had a closed in porch thing, and we never had her chained up, we had a shock collar, but she had two or tree acres to roam.
Now we're starting to look for another dog, I'm hoping to get another golden retriever. My parents will not allow the dog to stay inside the house, and I'm wondering if this will be okay. I wouldnt want to be inhumane to the dog, and I'm hoping it will be like my old dog, Praline. Please give me any suggestions.
