Daisy (Old English Sheepdog) is 59 days pregnant today. 2nd Litter. She has limited her food intake to almost nothing; this has been going on since day 55. She doesn't show any signs of nesting, her behavior hasn't changed much; she follows me around to every room as normal and seems very relaxed. The only thing I have noticed is that last night she began asking to go outside much more often than usual. I have been monitoring her temp for five days now, yesterday it was at its lowest 98.4; but it always seems to rise to 100.5 before bedtime (9pm). During the past few days she has almost doubled in size and I can see the movement of her puppies from across the room. What other things should I be I looking for? How long do you think it will be before she goes into labor? Any and all information is welcome, thank you ahead of time. I want to be as ready as I possibly can! THANK YOU!

She is 7 years old and never had any health problems. Yes I will get her to a vet, but nervous until tomorrow. Before any animal activists get un-nerved. She has had her shots & dewormed, and was breed with a well taken care of male. Her puppies do not go to shelters, she is of champion bloodlines w/ papers and her pups go to serious buyers only. I'm worried about her, once again she is going to a vet tomorrow.

Does anybody here own a shetland sheepdog?
I just want more info about my 7 month puppy. Also,
when do I have to clip his nails?
Or should his vet do it?

His nails are very long and the veternarian told me to cut off only a little at a time because if you cut off too much they will bleed. I've been careful but he is sensitive and his nails are tough to cut. Last time I tried he yelped and I couldn't get him to sit still again. Any suggestions?

I tried locking my room, but he starts barking loudly. So I ried ignoring him. But he crossed the line, when I laid on the bed and there was a piece of chwed pedigree on my hair. I don't want to give him away. But his feeding problems are stressing me!

This is the 2nd time asking a question about my 11mo. old male dachsund. When I first left him in the house alone he chewed up the carpet. I purchase a baby gate and he chewed thru that. I purchase a metal cage, he got the door open. I padlocked the door and he got the bottom pan out, lifted the heavy cage with his nose and squeezed thru. I returned that and got a plastic carrying crate, yes, he was able to use his nose to open that too. (Between the metal cage and the plastic carrying crate he now has a bloody snout I am nursing!) I decided to try leaving him outside and thought this is working great until today when my hard of hearing neighbor came over to tell me he has been howling all day. I am a stay-at-home mom but do need to get the kids to school and run errands. What can I do! I'm running out of ideas!!
Do the training collars work for howling?? Any GOOD ideas would be appreciated!

Our dog, Buddy, always chases them to their "safe zones". He genuinely just wants them to play with him. He does not growl or try to bite them. I wish they could co-exist in the same room together. I don't know if it because he is still a puppy or if he will always want to chase them. He is a shitzu if that matters at all. Otherwise, he is a great dog and a great companion ...

When my dog hears thunder and sees the flashes of lightning she freaks out. Tries to dig in the carpet, chews on things she's not supposed to. What can I do to keep her calm in this situation when I am home? If there anything I can do when I am not home?

My german shepherd female is very mindful of the rules (leaving the yard and ect.) but when the neighbors little dogs are let out it doesnt matter if she is with me or not she disregards all commands and will immediately go right for the dogs, how can i beat this habit, this is not a trait that I want from my dog and really nobody should.

Because of their ridiculous charges can vets be accused of animal cruelty.?

Sorry if you're too young, but this is a valid medical question.

I've never owned a non neutered male dog before. Twice now I have seen my 9 week old Golden's penis look bloody. It's very odd, it looks red and bloody, then just disappears. Is this something that comes out of the peis normally? It looks like a long bloody stump emerges than disappears. I'm sure this is a common thing, I've just never owned a puppy before.

Thanks!

(Also, if you answer crudely with no actual information, I'm gonna flag you, just so you know. Thanks!)

I bought a 9wk old puppy from a breeder. I had him for a week. He had slightly loose stools when I bought him and it got worse by the end of the week. On the day that I brought him to the vet he had bloody stool. I brought him in and they tested him for worms, he tested positive for hookworm. We went home with meds for worms and he just slept allday. It was in the evening when I knew something was really wrong, he could barely move. I brought him to the emergency hospital and told them about the hookworm. They tested him for parvo virus and he tested positive. They said he would have to be hospitalized and that it would cost close to $3,000 so we had to put him to sleep as we do not have that kind of money. I called the breeder & told him what happened and he called his vet who said that he could have had a false positive on the parvo test if he had bad enough hookworm. Is this true? The vet at the emergency hospital said nothing of the sort. I cant stop thinking about it. Please help!

When looking after my brother in law's dog, I have noticed that she looks having her tummy tickled, but she doesn't seem to react in the same way as humans. So it begs the question are animals ticklish?
