I have a Chihuahua, so I wanted to box train him. He goes in the box during the day when he's locked in his "area". It's getting him to go when he's out of his area that's the problem. When we let him come into the common areas he goes where ever he pleases. How long is this going to take??? He's 3 months old, and we've had him for about 6 weeks.

We just got the crate a week ago - and Jake will not stop barking when he is in it. We only put him in it at night and we always give him a treat when he goes in so he knows he is not in trouble. Do you have any tips on making him stop barking so we can get some sleep?

I have a German Shep. who has suddenly taken to rolling around alot, and I have noticed that instead of standing, he prefers to always be laying or sitting on his rear, which is not normal for him. A friend said he may have Twisted Stomach, I am not familiar with that, but I can tell he is uncomfortable and something is bothering him. Does anyone know what could cause this, and should I take him to the vet or be alarmed ?? Thanks :-)

Both of my cats and my dog shed A LOT. I have heard that certain triggers can cause excessive shedding and that there may be certain types of food that can help relieve it. Any causes or suggestions for food? I have already tried purina, Iams, Science Diet, and your typical Wal mart variety foods.

My dog becomes irritable whenever I touch the left side of her face. There seems to be a little blue cloudiness in her left eye--she is only 4 years old and the reason I am concerned is my other dog had this "bluishness" in both eyes, but the vet said she could see sufficiently. Are there any kinds of test I can give her, before being concerned and taking her to the vet. Her right eye seems fine for now.

I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She is 8 1/2 years old and has a slight heart murmer. She has bladder stones and one is the size of a golf ball. She is having an operation at the moment to remove them. What are the chances that she either won't come round from the anasthetic or will have a complication with the operation? I love her to bits and am very worried about her.

My dog keeps biting my knees, toes or pants. I've tried bitter apply spray on my skin but it just seems to dissolve. She is just over 8 weeks. I understaind it's because she's teething but how do you teach her bite inhibition. I try to give her a chew toy each time she comes after my finger or what not and she ignores it and continues to go after my finger or toe. My boyfriend doesn't seem to have this problem as much. He just ignores her for a few makes his hands in fists or makes them stiff and then she stops. But he also doesn't play as much with her as I do.
What is playing with your puppy? I take a stuffed puppy and let her chew at it and play like the stuffed puppy is another puppy playing with her. Is that wrong?
Does she me more as her play buddy and that's why she like to nip more at me? It hurts and I don't get mad or yell at her but evey time I do walk away she follows, bites or if I put her in her excersie pen she screams/barks and continues to find ways out.

She had coccadia. The vet gave her medicine for the coccadia and her diarhea. We are on the 10th and final day of treament. After starting the treament she was eating like a normal dog, excited about food and couldn't wait. It was a mix of her puppy hard food from the breeder and a/d (mixed wet food) from the vet.
Then on the 4th day of treament we were told to start giving her i/d (help her stool form more - it look more like chicken and rice) mixed with her hard food. She loved it. We just returned to work on Tuesday and yesterday, Wednesday's dinner (3rd meal of the day) she only ate 1/2 of her meal. This morning (1st meal) she only ate 1/4. The vet's office told us ID is very bland and to try just feeding her only puppy food. I have given her tiny amount of treats (TINY) like crumbles less than a 1/4 inch in amount. She went crazy when I open up the container yesterday evening. Is she comparing her food with the treats? Or it he ID just bland.
VANA is just over 8wks.

My 1 1/2 year old black lab's nipples just started poking out and now her whooha is really swollen. I don't think she could have gotten pregnant. Even though she is not spaded. Any ideas on what could be wrong?

I've just bought a beautiful Rotteweiler puppy! When people ask what breed he is, and I tell them, 90% of people pull the' oh right, a rotteweiler' face. Why do people still prejudge this breed? Dogs, like people, are not born bad, how they are bought up defines the charachter they develop into! Does anyone else own a dog that people frown upon, down to bad publicity, or lack of understanding...?
