Dogs - October 2006

I have a 2 bedroom apt, and someone was telling me that a great dane makes a great apartment dog. I was wondering if it is true. Obviously I would take it for a nice walk everyday, Just wondering, I am in love with big dogs.

I read that there is a dog breed that produces dogs that are only the size of a tea cup. They don't get any bigger. I don't know if this breed is found in the U.S. or somewhere else. Does anyone know what type of dog this is. I don't think it's the chihuahua or the yorkie.

I live in a Country where pets are not loved or cared for as much as the UK. We have many strays and poisoning going on and dogs mostly tied to chains. If a pup gets a home its lucky. Anyway my question is am I doing damage to my neighbours pup in being kind. She has a child so she keeps this six week old pup tied up outside 24.7, it had 5 brothers and sisters who he can still hear and smell up the road. I feel sorry for it so I take it in during the night with the company of my two dogs inside and take it back in the morning. We have had thunder and lightning for days and the thing must be terrified on its own tied up, it has a kennel. It crys all night. Yes ok maybe they shouldnt have taken it but they did and i want to try and help but Ive read you should ignore pup crys, opinions please.

We just picked up a new puppy at the animal shelter saturday. They said someone brought the whole liter in after finding them walking down the road. So they are not sure what breed they are. Out of the 8 pups, 4 were white with black and brown markings, beagle type. 3 were blackish brown with lighter brown rottie type markings. Mine is black with perfect rottie markings with beagle ears and a tail. How can same liter look so different, some like beagles and mine like a rottie. Would the parent be a rot or could there have been a rot farther down the line and all traits came out in just mine?

I'm friends with this older lady (65, good health, needs to lose a little weight) & I'm thinking of getting her a lab from the shelter. It would give her a chance to walk every day (for her health) w/o an excuse. But I'm wondering if a lab may be too high energy or hard to maintain for an older person? She could def. take it for 1/2 hour walk once or twice a day, but she also spends a lot of time on the couch (do labs like to sit on the couch at all?)

How will she feel after. She's very lively, I'm afraid she'll hurt herself after! How long does it take to recover? Will she change or will she be the same?

My dog is a koolie and she is 8 months old. Whenever i walk out of the room she goes pscho and starts barking. We have tried everything from going back and playing with her, yelling, squirting her with water, and even flicking her on the nose (dont freak out, we arent abuseing her-our dog trainer/vet suggested this, it doesnt hurt them) the only way we can get her to be quiet is to go back to her and sit with her and play... but as soon as we leave again she barks and we have to go back. any ideas?

My dog has two raised areas on the sides of her jaw and one under her jaw. I've seen these on all dogs. Small raised areas with hairy patches. They are obviously some kind of organ. What are they for?
