I *LOOOVE* long dogs, but I only know of these two. Are there others? And also, what's the correct term for a "long dog"?

Ok..... just for a frame of reference... when do puppies stop chewing everything in site? God help us if we drop the remote control or anything else plastic. He has TONS of chew toys of all variety. He is 6 months now....

Using the old bait and switch has not been working either because he quickly loses interst in the switched item.

I heard dogs barking @3:30 in the a.m., so I looked outside, & there he was standing there while his dog took a big healthy crap in our yard by the road. When I turned on my porch light, he hurried up & walked the dog back into the house. Never even cleaned it up. Should I bag it & set fire to it on his porch?

My dog is about 13 years old (human) and is a full bred collie. About a week ago is back legs gave out. I can only assume is becasue of arthritis. He can still walk barely, but he has to do alot of force and now I try to feed him by spoon as much. Today he started drinking water and he started drooling alot. Do you guys think it better to let him rest in peace now or should I find a way to make his life more easier?

I am assuming that all of the packaging on dog food has an effect on the environment.

I have a very picky Poodle called Herbie, he will only eat Marks And Spencers Gourmet! (or whatever is on my plate) Needless to say this costs me a fortune.

I need to know - a homemade recipe I could make once a week and maybe freeze - to provide him with all of his nutrients.

He is a miniature Poodle - so he doesn't eat alot.

Thanks
Helen

I have a female Dachshund named Heidi. I know Dachshunds are possessive, jealous, and territorial dogs by nature, but a neighbor recently told me that her daughter is getting rid of her Dachshund female. I know this daughter is just not an animal person and doesn't really care for the well being of the dog. I wouldn't want her to take the dog to the pound because I know they euthanise around here because they're running out of room. I was thinking of adopting her, but I'm afraid she and Heidi won't get along very well. They are both around a year old. Would it be safe to adopt another female dog when Heidi is already the princess of the house?

We have three dogs total, a 6.5, 5.5, and nine months. Our older dogs are housetrained and have always been allowed in the house all day. We started out by having the puppy in our bathroom for the first few weeks with wee wee pads and his own toys, and eventually allowed him into the house with the other two (which we now recognize was done too soon). My concern is how to now go about crate training the puppy when the other two dogs will still have free reign of the house. He is a very high energy, exuberant puppy and I am concerned that he will act out if in a crate. Should his crate be in a room the other dogs are in or confined to a part of the house the dogs are not allowed in during the day? We are anxious to get him crate trained as his behavior is destructive. They are only allowed in our kitchen and living room, but he gets into trouble. He is a 95 pound lab puppy, very lovable, but very high energy and I worry that being in a crate means he won't get to play as he has been.

I have never owned a female dog before. Tinkerbell came out of heat 7-10 days ago as normal. only her teats stayed really long and swollen, now they have gone down in size but they are swollen underneath. To me they look like pups have been nursing (obviously not like but that is what it looks like).
She is 11 months old and I do have another male dog. I was very strict about keeping them separate but my husband was not all too bothered (grr) so there is a possibility she can be.
I do not know the beginning signs of a dogs pregnancy is. I'd like to find out and be prepared for it and have 60 days not 6!!

i'm looking at these breeds puppy pictures and they look exactly the same..... are there any differences so that we know for sure that a puppie is a rottweiler and not a doberman?

I have an 8 month old Pomeranian puppy. She is the love of my life and her training is going well, HOWEVER, she yaps at everything and nothing has worked. She is never alone as she goes to work with me so there is no anxiety or lonliness. She is walked for 45 minutes twice a day minimum so she gets plenty of exercise. Otherwise, she is a beautiful, sweet & calm dog. Her bark is very high pitched and LOUD and I do not blame people for hating it. I take her everywhere I go but am starting to make enemies with her barking. I bought a DogTra Bark Collar and am charging it up as I write this. I will put it on the lowest setting and go from there. Anyone had any experience with a small yapper?? This is a last resort or we will both stay home!

We have a kiddie pool for our dogs. They LOVE it! I have a lab mix and a jack/beagle mix. My neighbors say we spoil them because when they're not at home playing in their pool, we're out on the boat and the dogs spend all day playing at the sandbar. Is that spoiling? I thought we were giving them exercise while keeping them cool :)

It just started its first rain here and I didn't know how my puppies would react. Well... they have a doggy door and they keep running in and out, frolicking in the rain. and then they will come inside and tear around the house in an extended FRAP episode. It's quite hilarious. However, my mom says she can't get her rat terrier hardly to go out in it. I love my puppies! (american bulldog mix and a jack russell/pit mix) Happy Friday everyone!
XOXOXO

I'm interested in adopting a lab puppy. But this question goes out to all those Lab lovers/owners out there: What's it really like having one? Exercise? Grooming? Training Ability? Feeding? Size? Is it to much trouble for a girl that's still in school?

LOL. I just wanted to say thank you for your answers! I always love reading it when people have nice things to say or stories to tell. I especially love the dog/ice one. I can just picture all these dogs running around chasing and chewing on ice, and I think that would be adorable. I wish I could write back to every single person, but I can't, so I wanted a big group hug and a thanks for making me smile today. (I'm in a good mood... it's friday!) ENJOY!

We have a male husky that we adopted from our local SPCA. They told us that he is neutered and that we are the 4th family to adopt him. This was back in 2003. So there were no physical marks to show he was neutered, but it more then likely happened back with the first family.

Yesterday, we went out for a few hours, food shopping and stuff. My wife’s step-dad heard what sounded like one of the dogs was hurt. When he went upstairs to check on them, the husky was locked with our female malamute. So apparently he had to urge to mate with her.

Do neutered males lock up with female dogs in heat? This is her third season and the first time that he has had the “urge” to do this.

Please do not preach to me about getting my female spayed. She is let out into a 8 foot high fenced in yard and never left alone. We will not spay her unless it’s a medical emergency. Our husky was a surprise because he is neutered, so no non-altered dogs will be getting anywhere near her!

my puppies LOVE ice. it is fascinating. I put it in their water and it's like they are bobbing for apples, but instead it's ice. when one piece drops on the ground they chase it all over and then chew it to pieces. Anyone else?

There is a girl that works in the same building as I do and she raises and showes Austrialan Cattle Dogs, when my boss asked if they were the same as Blue heelers, the other girl blew a gasket....so, does anyone know the difference?

My dog's previous owners had her on a mixture of wet and dry food.

I want her on just dry food so I stopped putting the wet food down for her.

I did this for 3 days and she just refused to eat even though I knew she was hungry because she was begging for our food(totally out of character for her.) She didn't get any of our food. I just showed her her bowl with the food in it.

Well I got concerned that she hadn't eaten in three days so I caved and put the wet food in it and she gobbled it up. I know I shouldn't have done that, but I can't let my dog not eat.

What is a better way to go about getting her solely on dry food? Should I just start with the wet/dry food mix and slowly reduce the amount of wet food?
