Dogs - December 2006

I recently purchased a puppy from a company called "The Pet Company" last night we had to put the dog to sleep after only having him for 5 nights. We had other issues with the company in regards to selling us a chiuaha in which it turned out that we acquired a 15 lbs. mut. I am wondering if anyone knows where to start a forum or a website to see if any other people had some similar issues with the company. Please let me know where to start or your suggestions. THANKS

HISTORY: We have an 8 month old lab puppy/mix.

The vet said she about 80% lab 20 percent sharpei.

We've had her just over 9 weeks.

We got her from the shelter, she came from an over crowded, back yard breeder.

PROBLEM: It rains, she gets muddy feet. We need to clean her paws before she comes in the house. She submissive urinates.

WHAT WE ARE DOING: We praise, we talk calmly. None of it works. We have to touch her, so can't ignore her completely.

We started private dog training last week.

1 MORE ISSUE: She also urinates when frightened. Our 18 yo son bounced into the room last night in his new ski gear, she really got frightened, urniated (we found out a few minutes later) and started barking, until he took the cap off and started talking to her.

If anyone raises their voice, same thing.

We are trying to praise more and more, so she will be less afraid and so we can help build up her self esteem.

I have an Alaskan Malamute that is constantly getting ear infections. Usually starts late on a Friday when we cant get to the regular vet. He always prescribes antibiotic pills and ointment, This does work, but is there anything we can do to make her more comfortable until we can get her to the vet?

she has a milky discharge coming from her teats, has anyone else had this problem? we have not noticed any blood from her rear. could it be a phantom pregnancy?? she is a 14 month old husky, we have only had her about 2 months and did not have a lot of info about her. they said she had not been speyed but did not say if she had already had a season.

she seems to be more clingy than normal, and is not eating as much as normal. i know this last bit seems sounds like the right symptoms, but i have not seen the teat discharge on other peoples qestions before so am a bit worried. i will take her to the vets on friday so please dont give that as an answer!!

thanks

i love all my dogs and they are fixed and well cared for i do spoil my dogs but i also understand sometimes people dont have a fortune to spend on a dog.. and that doesnt mean that they shouldnt have one. i get tired of people putting others down for not fixing there dog or running them to the vet as soon as there nose starts to run. 2 of my dogs were dogs that i saved from horrible conditions one of them didnt even know how to drink from a bowl he thought he had to eat snow. anyway when i took him i knew i could give him a warm home and food water and love. but i also knew i couldnt afford a vet bill at that time. according to some of you i shouldnt have taken him because i couldnt afford it.. well thats wrong i know alot of seniors who have dogs that mean everything to them but they are on fixed income and cant afford to fix there dog ect that doesnt mean they dont love or care for them and it doesnt mean that they shouldn have a dog. more in details

I cannot think of one single name that fits him. He is sold black and has very pretty brown eyes with long eyelashes. His personality is very relaxed. I would like to come up with something original, maybe Spanish or French in origin. English is also fine. ANything you can think of would help me get some ideas.

My Boston Terrier who's almost two tends to go outside and after doing her job....eats her own feces. Does anyone know how to stop her? She's often fed and not lacking in that respect. I'm just tired of yelling at her.

my boy friend's dog could possibly get him and his family evicted. The lanlord/lease refers to it as an "unautorized pet".

He wants to avoid this by having me adopt it for 2-3 months OR putting it in a shelter OR having it put to sleep.

i have a back yard. But I need my parents permission to keep the dog.

Have just got a 7wk old border collie and he needs a bath, have been to the local supermarket and they only have dog washes.
Is it ok to use baby shampoo or is there a special type of puppy wash???
