I'm going on a trip to see my family in Texas and since my husband is deployed his family has offered to take his overly hyper beagle for the year he is gone. It's going to be an 9 hour car ride and I have no idea if he gets carsick, but I do know that he has and will jump all over the place including on my infant son. My mother in law told me that one tab of Benadryl would be ok to give him to sedate him through the trip. Our beagle is about 25-27 lbs and the doses of benadryl come on 25 mg tabs. What is safe and can I do that? My mother in law said her vet told her to do the same with her dogs and they are around the same size as our beagle, maybe even a little lighter. I trust my mother in law, but I still want to be safe.

We got him from a shelter when he was a puppy a year ago. He hides under the bed during the day and is afraid to come out into the backyard in the morning. At night he is ready to party, happy as can be and not afraid of anything. Almost like a coyote or something. You would think that if he was abused before we got him that he would be fine by now. Strangest dog ever.

I just recently got a two year old female Maltese that will be an indoor dog. I have two outdoor dogs, one is a husky and the other is a chow/german sheppard mix. When Izzy (the Maltese) goes outside, she starts barking and growling at the other two dogs and acts very territorial. What can I do to fix this problem?

I own two Boxers. The one with the problem is about 5 or 6 years old. (She was rescued so we aren't sure.) Whenever we aren't home she chews on the bottoms of her feet and they are starting to turn raw. We give her plenty of toys to play with and our other dogs should be keeping her company so I don't know why she does it!

Does anybody else have this problem? Is it a nervous problem or just a bad habit?

If I'm going to crate an 8 week old puppy, should I free feed him or should I feed him once in the morning before I leave, once when I get home (5:30) and then again at 9 pm. ?

My breeder advised me to feed him 3 times a day but he will be crated for 9 hours. Is this too long for him to go without eating?

Let me know if you crate, if so, how long per day and the feeding methods.

I would appreciate any helpful advice. Serious responses only!!!!

My greyhound got her tail caught in the door and has a small wound on her tail. I cleaned off the blood with a warm cloth and am on my way to the pet store to get some gauze. She is not in any pain, should I take her to the vet or just keep an eye on it for the next few days. What would be some signs that I should take her to the vet?

I have two 9 month old Rotties and I have them on Nutro Choice for large breed and Nutro Choice dog treats for the past 3 months,but their stool is still runny and they take a dump at least three times each after feeding. Sometimes its firm and a lot of times its loose. They are outside often not confined to a crate or a tree. I make sure they keep everything that shouldnt be in their mouth out. What food should I get them on? or take them to the high price vet? HELP!!!!
