My female American Pit dug her way out of her kennel while in heat. This is not a case of poor ownership so spare me your "get her spayed" advice and comments. I want to find good HOMES for her pups. Animal control and the dog pound is NOT an option! As she is pure breed and thought to mate with a labador retriever.

I hope somone will want her pups.

Does anyone know a good website that allows a person to GIVE free pups to a good home? They are well fed, good natured and beautiful dogs.

Please respond ASAP.

She likes water a lot, but mostly for playing. Today she swam for the first time, but I was terrified. I encouraged her to go get her ball and she did it for me, only, but you could tell she was a little afraid to swim.

I hit a dog with my car tonight....it was oviously an accident...i slammed on my breaks and it was too late. i ran to the house and told them... i feel absolutly horrible... i called them 2 hours later to see how the dog was and if it was okay. and all the owners said was "HES FINE & DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT". but i have a gut feeling they sh** him or something because i don't think he would be fine after 2 hours...maybe they just wanted to be nice and not tell me he died??/ somebody please make me feel better!~

where do you find "cuter" collars for your dog. i have looked at the selection of collars at petsmart & petco, but they just stink. i want something more glam & cute for my female dog. i don't want to spend more than $100 on a collar either. it is for a larger dog, so i need something sturdy, too.

any suggestions?

Six months ago I bought a Toy "long haired" Chihuahua for $250. He weighs about a pound at 1 year old. The previous owner used a razor, ( a pair of hair cutting shears to groom him) to give him that poofy thing like a mini poodle?

The problem is that they scrapped his skin leaving something like a razor burn on his rear and tail. I was hoping his hair would grow back? It hasn't........the VET told me that it would and to just wait and see what happens?

It has been 6 months and he has gapped hair, scally skin. And is quite the ragamuffin...

Is there anything I can do for him? To get his hair to come back like it should? I have used Neosporin on his tail. And that ScratchAid for hot spots.

He also has potty training issues. He pees and poops everywhere! He nips and bites at me. He is un-responsive to handling.

Please help him..............

When I turn him over on his back and hold him he is fine. He always wants on the couch and my husband lets him. Granted we have only had him for two days... Is this a start to bad behavior or just puppy behavior? Any suggestions?

Today i gave him twice the amount of food he usually gets, since me and my parents decided to change the amount of food he gets, since he was always hungry. So i just gave him twice as much as he is used to and now he is yelping and "crying". Its scary because hes spinning in circle and not stopping, and i think something is hurting him. Did i do anything bad to him, that could like harm him?

We have her for about.. 2 weeks nows. The first night was rough.. she was very scared and hated her crate and wanted out. After a few nights when the lights went out, she ran in and went to sleep. The following weeks she would go to sleep before we turned off anylights. But tonight she is refusing to go to sleep, and barks and howls when we try to put her in there (Which is hard because she refuses!)

She hasn't napped at all today, and about 1 hour ago she was dosing off, so whats up with this sudden burst of energy?

She wants a female, I want a male, we aren't going to mate them, just have two good behaved dogs, are there any larger dogs that would not eat a yorky? Or which dog would be best to raise with?

I have currently got 3 other dogs: Leah a 3 year old Afghan Hound, Zoe a 1 year old Dalmatian and Mia a 5 year old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.
I have had all my dogs sinse they were 8 weeks old and I am very committed to each of their needs.
I have not shaved Leah's long coat at all, I am very committed to keeping it long. I groom all of my dogs frequently and walk them for 40 minutes in the morning, an hour in the afternoon (45 mins of that walk is off the leash at a park) and sometimes 20-40 minutes at night before bed time.
I am VERY active, I take all of my dogs to the beach when I have a day off on a nice day, I enjoy long walks (sometimes I walk for maybe 2 hours in the morning etc.).
I have trained all of my dogs very well. I have had no trouble with either dog escaping my property.. etc.

I would like to get another pup but wouldn't over rule any possibilities of getting a rescue dog.

Breed suggestions are great.

She won't eat since two days, but she is showing no signs of being ill. She is still hyper and always jumping around, but she hasn't eaten!

My dog has been eating cat food for a few years now. I want to get him to eat dog food so he can get the nutrition he needs. My question is: what kind of dog food should I feed him. Also, how should I go about getting him to stop eating cat food? ( We have 4 cats and always have food sitting out for them, should I put up their bowls higher?)

*My dog is a mini dachshund.
