Dogs - December 2006

i have a labrador dog at 5 years old. and i think that it is time to get a new one.. he is really friendly and okay with having other dogs stay over for a while and i think that if we got a 2nd dog that we wouldn't mind too much, but my parents think that it will make him really upset and not happy and like before. & i dont want to do that to him, but i think that we have enough room for a 2nd dog .

I have a male Jack Russell Terrier, I've had him since he was 8 months. He turned 2 years old this past October...you can't really consider him "old". He's a stubborn little dog, and he's still had some trouble completely learning some things. For instance, loose leash walking. Would it be possible for him to learn how to walk properly on a leash at this point? Or would it be harder?

Okay so i know all the ups and downs of puppy training . .yes she crys she she freaks out and yes the crate is fit for her size. She hated it at first then began to be okay with it but lately she's been having 'accidents'. She relased her #1 once which i think was a complete accident of being excited to see us walk through the door. Then she got sick and puked all over her crate a week later, and now today she released her #2 in her crate but it wasn't a normal release it was more diahreah then anything. Now do u think she is getting too nervous being in the crate?? She isn't left in for more then 3-4 hours at a time, which vets said that it would be fine jsut no longer then 5 hours while shes a puppy then when she becomes a adult dog she can be in there for up to 6-7 hours. Should i continue the crate training or give up? Please help!

He is an 11 year old Cockerspaniel/Terrier mix. He is coughing a lot, it listless, can't sit still, very tired a lot, is making weird noises when he breathes. Have you ever had a dog with heartoworm and, if so, did he or she have these symptoms and how did you cure it (what was the cost)?

Ittalin mastiffs are aggressive and protective. Pitts are smaller than ittialin mastiffs.Ittalin mastiffs have more bone and muscle mass than a pitt. Pitts are naturaly aggresive if felt like it is in harms way

I currently have a gorgeous 12 week old pit bull puppie(female) white and brown, I have to get rid of her becuase I am moving to an apartment and most apartments won't allow a pitbull..(stupid) so now she's up for grabs. reply with your email if you live near the Dallas area if you're interested.

I am looking for a smaller breed because i love how those dogs look just don't want them to be as big. I would be willing to get either one if there is nothing close to that.

I have a lovely Pomeranian male, 10 mos old. I work fulltime and he is home alone. Someone suggested that I look into dogsharing. A friend of mine actually did that with his dog since he was a Pilot and traveled often. They would split time with the dog, however, he would still pay for the food, grooming, and vet bills.

Anyway, I can't get in contact with him to ask more details about it, so I thought someone out there may have done this? Should there be a contract written? Any opinions on whether it is a good idea or not?

He gets lots of love when I am home, but I hate to know that he is there alone while I am at work.

Thanks for your input!

My black lab is 3 years old and is very very sweet, but man-o-man is she destructive. She digs and chews up everything. I thought that was just a puppy thing. I have thought about dog training, but don't have the time. Any suggestions?

We are looking for a inside pet, that will be good for our children. We have a 1 year old and a 3 year old, both boys. They are both VERY rambunctious (sp?). We need a dog with a good personality and that will not snap or bite easily, since both children are very young. I also don't want a dog that sheds alot. If you can help I would GREATLY appreciate it!!

Thanks!

Do you think it's bronchitis or a heart condition? He's 11 and he only caughs when he gets excited and breathes hard, like when he sees a stranger and barks, or is running. He is a cockerspaniel.
