Dogs - December 2006

I have two Pit Bulls, "Lily" and "Dasy"... Lily is great, she's calm and is a really great dog... But Dasy, is the problem puppy... First of all she destroys everything, so we have to lock her up when we are gone. Then, when i let her out of her kennel, i take both dogs out for a walk for about an hour. Dasy refuses to "go potty", and when i bring her back in, she poops and pees in the house... She also is very jealous and shows a lot of resentment towards Lily... What can i do to make her act better?

I rescued a dog from the side of the road today which could hardly stand up, its legs wanting to give out from under her. Didn't appear to have been hit, but was emaciated and seemed dehydrated. She was so weak I had to hold her so she would not spill out of the van's captain's chair. The Humane society didn't have room so I brought her home. Couldn't jump out so I carried her down to the ground where she managed to stand up. Drank so much water at dog bowl on the way in, then drank again at water bowl inside. When I was refilling that she had gone down the hall and was drinking out the half bathroom toilet again! Was disoriented and finally fell into a quilt I put on the floor. Slept for 3 hours so I was letting her get the rest. She didn't want food or didn't have the energy to eat, but also even after all the drinking the inside of her mouth was very dry. Found her with no collar, flea-ridden, face scratched like cats or dogs had gone at her. Vet is checking her now.

that dogs had the "smarts" to pick their human. What traits do you think they would look for? Based on that, do you think YOU would get picked?

(Momentarily forget the fact that if dogs were that smart they wouldn't need us.)

It's true because a dogs digestive tract is much smaller than a humans so a dogs exrement has much more undigested food and nutrition left to it then a humans. So if your going to have to eat poop its actually better for you to eat dog poop then human poop wouldn't you think that to be the opposite but its true

She's been inside for a few weeks now, but she's overly submissive and is very hard to live with. I'm very good to her... she just has a very destructive behavior in my home and with herself. She constantly chews (even though she doesn't have fleas anymore) and has bald spots.

My puppy has been treated 4 times since 11/24 for worms. She also has something in her bed every morning that looks like rice or maybe small seeds. This is NOT in her stool, it is just in her bed. She doesn't go in her bed. The vet today told me something about tapeworms, but I don't have a clue how this "rice" looking thing that most definately isn't moving and isn't in her stool can keep showing up in her bed. What is it and what can i do to get rid of it . I am freaking out. They gave her DRontal Plus today, later she threw up 3 times.

I have a Lhaso Apso (cutest little thing ever) who is 2 years old, fully potty trained (well, suipposed to be), and for the last year he leaves pee puddles in the house. He doesn't ever fully go because there would be a lot more. Just these little puddles! We have a dog door that he has used since he was a puppy (we've had him since he was 3 months) and he goes outside always to go no. 1 & 2. Then he will come inside and pee just a little bit in the same 2 rooms of the house at least once a day. It's driving me mad. I bring him to it, spank him, then put him outside then he just does it again. Almost always in the morning. WHY does he do it, and how can I get him to stop?

okay...This just happened. A rabbit came into our yard, my 2 mini daschunds chased it, the rabbit got caught in the fence. My two dogs skinned it and started eating it. Maybe the worst sight I have ever seen. I was so disgusted, I put the dogs in their kennel, and my neighbor had to pick up the remains. I would think my dogs are going to be really sick. I also have 3 children, is there going to be adverse behavior from the dogs? I read the only concern I should have is if the rabbit had tape worm.

We just had a litter of basset hound puppies born and a few of them have like these little moles under their chin. They were born with them. I'm sure you've seen these bumps on older dogs. They have whiskers growing out of them. I really don't know what they are called, but moles was the only name that came to mind. Just wondering if this is something to be concerned about or not.

I have a black lab/shepherd/boxer/cattle dog mix (I know- crazy but this is what they told me when I adopted her, and she does look a little like each of those, but mostly lab). She is almost 8. I've heard her referred to as a senior. I don't think of her that way at all. We walk/run for almost an hour daily so I would say she's in pretty good shape, after losing several pounds (she got a bit tubby there for awhile). She definitely seems more prone to injuries/soreness than she used to, but I think of her as a young thing still because she loves to play like a puppy. Can you tell me what you think the lifespan of a dog of this type would be?

In south GA there were some men who roasted a PUPPY in an oven for fun!!!!! that is soo cruel. Supposedly the puppy's nails were all bloody and stubby from trying to scratch out the oven. This was like a game to them. Why would someone do this. the puppy did not do anything!

The phone number to Bossier City Animal Control, where the Pit Bull puppy is being quarantined, is 318-741-8499. This puppy should not have to take the blame for this tragic incident. People in general give the Pit Bull breed a bad rep!
