I don't feel like having overly excitable people preach too me, I just want advice. I bought a 4 month olf Brussells Griffon female puppy home and she has been a terror since she got home. We bought her so our daughter could have a puppy to grow up with but the puppy just pees and poos everywhere. (I tried the pads) rips up everything she can find, jumps all over the baby, eats the cats food and steals the babies toys. We are trying to crate train her while we are away at work and that also isnt working out. I realize potty training may take some time but how long?The dog bugs the hell out of me but I think she deserves a chance. My husband is at his wits end and wants to sell her because she keeps finding papertowel and tearing it up all over the floor or stealing everything off of the table. She even ate a 20.00 bill. What can I do? Will obedience training work? We take her out for walks during the day because we dont have a patio are at our apartment.

Suggestions?

My dog is almost 2 years old and has a problem with chewing on things (normally mine). This is a problem even when we are at home.

She also likes to pull the table cloth off the table when we aren't home. I don't want to get rid of her but she is driving me crazy. Please help!!!!

I've found one chart but trying to figure it out is ridiculous!!! We have been weighing them since day one and they are now almost 5 weeks old - we stopped weighing them when they were 1 month.

On Names For The Dog, It's A Male Dog By The Way.

After 5 weeks of surgery on a torn ACL and patella luxation on her left knee, my chihuahua is still favoring the good leg over the repaired one. The vet said that the healing and the surgery is good and the dog just needs to re-learn walking on all fours. During a slow walk, she uses all four but when we pick up speed she reverts to three legs. When I tug on the leash for some resistance, she puts down the repaired leg and walks on four. When she gets excited, she has all legs on the ground. Then, she remembers her injury and lifts the bad leg again. I have to admit that over 5 weeks, she has used the repaired leg more and more, and so maybe she is just a couple more weeks away from complete recovery. However, I still would like to help this process along. Any ideas as to how a dog can get over this
hangup?

I have a 9 Month Chihuahua Mix. We adopted him from the pound and they knew the mom was a Chi but didn't know what the dad was, whatever it was it was also small because our dog is about 4 lbs. He is pretty small height wise but is a little bit larger than a chihuahua. I wanted to give a little bit of background but anyway. The vet told us his weight is fine but to me he looks too skinny. I feed him two cans of Cesar (he won't eat more, I've tried) everyday and throughout the day he eats dry Beneful food (very little). My question is do you all know what kind of food would be good to give him to fatten him up. Not necessarily extra food since he does not like to eat much...but what could I switch him to that is healthy and will make him gain weight. And I guess it wouldn't hurt to know of a recipe or something to help him gain some weight.

He is 18 months old and has not always had this problem. It is in the area beneath his eyes but his eyes do not look as though they weep.

Also it does smell like stale water so I am not sure if it is splashing up there when he is having a drink. It just seems strange to become a problem now rather than him always being like that.

Please tell me you can help as currently my dog is stinky!!

IF someone wanted to become a breeder, that's an IF, how would they go about finding out the necissary information and still avoid the accusations of being a BYB wannabe?
I ask because there seems to be a lack of availible websites that are usefull in learning things along the lines of what to do if a puppy get's "stuck" or what normal gestation is and the things involved in the actual act of breeding *mating, gestation, birth, what to do with the pups before they're 6weeks old* There's plenty of information availible on what the qualifications are, but being responsible and having all the vet chacks and stuff is useless when you don't know what a dog should look like when pregnant or how to tell if a puppy "is having problems *not the obvious not breathing type problems, more like a coat not coming in properly*
If the internet fails, and any questions asked are answerd with accusations of irrisponsibility, what's left to do?
