Dogs - November 2006

I have 2 american pitbull terriers and one heinz 57.
I rescued Liberty from the street, Roman from a pitbull rescue, and the heinz 57 was a foster puppy that I wound up adopting.

Hi, I'm a teen in the greater boston area, and I wanted to start, like a small biz in my home for dogs to come and play with other dogs, learn tricks, go for walks, etc, etc. My parents have said okay, but I don't know how to start.... =/

I have had my puppy now for just over 4 weeks, but she continues to cry to an extent were she starts barking. I put her to bed around 10pm, turn all the lights off and she sleeps in a puppy pen in the kitchen, she does not cry all through the night except when it hits around 6am then she whines from the top of her lungs and barks - any advice, i have a little boy too and he keeps getting woken up to it. I don't know if she does this because i keep getting up to quieten her because i don't want her to wake my son up. I don't think she is lonely because we play with her all through the day and i have another dog that keeps her company when i am not home just a night my other dog sleeps outside.

Everyday I can sweep up enough fur to make a second dog. Is there any kind of a suplimant or shampoo that can reduce his shedding?

I have a small dog who is trained very well. She is wonderful with all different types of people and has a ton of tricks she knows that make everyone smile and laugh. I want to bring her to retirement homes.

Does she have to be certified as a therapy dog? If she does, how does one go about doing that?

I have an 80lb 10 month old Sharpei/St. Bernard Mix. He is wonderfully obedient with me and he listens well to me. I have a problem with him, whenever someone walks past him in the alley he acts like he is going to attack them. Even cars. If I am outside and I see this, i immediately yell No to him and he stops and trots back toward me. When I took him to the vet, I muzzled him, and he attempted to bite the vet when she put his rabies tag on his collar. He seems fearful of strangers, yet is overly aggressive. If I bring him in the house and someone is already there, he is fine, but if he is in the house first he acts aggressive and scared. (He hides behind me and barks). I am moving my children back with me and need to really curb this behavior. I have introduced them to him with the muzzle and he was fine. I like this dog, but love my kids more. Can he be trained out of this behavior?

The only way i can get him to lay down once in a while is if i take the treat, put it in front of his nose and lead him down to the floor.

Would they be too much dog for an older person, say 60ish yrs old.Do they require much grooming and are they a good personality. They look mean but I heard that they are friendly and love children.

Dog is 4yrs old. He is high spirited by nature and loveable to family and friends. Doesn't bite. But it scares people who come to visit by the way he barks and jumps. Looks like a small Doberman. If we put him in a separate room he barks and will bite through the door. He wants to meet the people.Help any MinPin owners!

Personally, I think the guy's freakin' hilarious. I guess maybe just it helps that we share some of the same ideas. Why are so many idiots out there breeding dogs?!?!? It gives those of us responsible owners- that don't breed unless we really believe we are making a genuine contribution to the species-a bad name. People just can't deal with honesty anymore......the truth can really hurt sometimes......

I have had a dog for one week. She is a Shar Pai and was a stray from the pound. She is an absolute dream when we are home with her. We started crate training the second day we had her. She goes totally nuts when we are not home. she bent part of the cage and also made so much commotion actually slid the plastic bottom of the cage out of the cage entirely. it is only when we leave her alone that she has these issues. Is there anyway to calm her down? when she goes to sleep for the night she will remain in the cage with the door open and not have any issues since we are sleeping in the room with her.

when people spin around and around we get dizzy, can't wait straight and sometimes even fall down. I have watched my dog chase her tail several times for atleast 45 seconds to a minute at a time and prance away with no problem. Why is this?
