Maggy is now 7 weeks old, and she has started to wet herself while she is sleeping, she doesnt wake up or anything. Is this normal? I am going to call the vet about it on monday. Does anybody know what i can do temporarily. She goes out all the time, and while she is awake, she lets us know when she has to go. Is this common in young pups?

I live way out in the country, and there are some folks down the road who- I'm sure- mistreat their dogs. They only have one or two free in the yard, but there are several tied to barrels and dog houses in the back yard (all of them so thin I could see their ribs!). Or, I think so- there were before these people put up a fence around their house when they caught me looking. I'm afraid they're breeding fighting dogs, but either way those poor things are being mistreated!

The problem is, we've tried calling the police, but they refuse to do anything (although I'm certain there are laws against the way those animals are treated! They won't even see to a complaint about all the night-long barking- noise that disturbes several people). The Animal Control and Animal Shelters in town can't operate outside the city limits, or so they've told us, so I'm at a complete loss about what to do. I want to help those dogs!

I have a 2 year old male cairn terrier who uses my living room as his personal outhouse. The house is hard wood floors except for the living room, which is carpeted and he will only poop in this one room. He has a dog door to the back yard that he uses all the time, but for some reason he just likes to poop in the living room instead of out there. Every time we catch him in the act we reprimand him, but we arent always around to see it happen and I know its bad to take him back to the turd after the fact to scold him. We have had to get the carpet shampooed three times to get the horrible smell out! I've seen the invisible fence shock collars I could use to keep him out of the room, but Im not so sure i want to go to that extent. Is there anything else I can do to make him stop this habit?!

I want to find a Halloween costume for my dog. He's a golden weighing about 75-80lbs. I want to enter him in a Scooby Doo snacks contest. Yeah I know it's a little silly. He's just so cute though. I need to find a costume big enough for him. Any suggestions where to look?

I have 2 dogs.. Rocky & Macy
Rocky = Purebred Beagle (Partial Champion blood, pedigreed) (APR Registered)
Macy = Purebred Beagle (ACA Registered) I don't have her pedigree yet but on her certificate it says she is a purebred beagle and gives the names of both of her Dam and Sire.

Are ACA + APR Bad registers?
Can i register those dogs as UKC?
How do I prove Macy is purebred.
Should i breed them?

Thx so much

Hi, my dog who is a year old got fixed at 3 months old, but just tonight she tried to hump my fathers leg (eww) is that normal for cockapoos (half poodle and cockerpaniel) to still have sexual feelings after they've been fixed?

my puppy is about 9 months old, i adopted her. i put her in the kennel when i'm not home so she doesn't chew up stuff and pee all over the place. but she barks every time i put her in it, including at night. so should i keep her in the kennel at night or let her sleep with me to keep her from barking? i'm sure my neighbors hate me by now.

I just asked what kind of dog my new pup was and mostly everyone agreed it was a Jack Russell mixed with Beagle, now I am wondering how long does it usually take for a Jack Russell to grow to full size and how big will he get? (Consider he is a mix...) And thanks for everyones help before, my boyfriend and I have been wondering...
