The main reason we bought a dog is to avoid strangers, and burglars. Our friend had a golden retriever as well and it was pretty friendly, so we bought one. Now it is 16 weeks old and it doesn't bark at any strangers, but it actually is excited to see people walk down the streets along our neighbourhood. He runs up and down and licks and jumps on them, happily wagging its tail. I don't know how to train it so it will not be so friendly with strangers, but so that he will bark at strangers, because that's what we bought him for. Sometimes I think its he nature of this breed of dog.. or can we train it? Another thing...my dog keeps on digging muddy holes everywhere in the backyard. Nearly everytime I look in the garden he is digging huge craters everywhere. Also, he picks out the plants we plant in the vegetable patches. Any advice will be greatly appreciated =D

My bf's shitzu has two rows of teeth at the bottom and they're crooked. Is this normal and is there a way to fix it?

My dog ate about a pound (hopefully less) off the table that we were packaging for the neighbors when we weren't looking. He threw up (we think most of it) within 30 minutes and then several more times over the next hour, until only bile came out. Now he seems fine, but it's a holiday weekend & I hate to bug the vet if I don't need to!

We are new to breeding and our 2 year old bichon has mated with the same. We do not know how many times before it takes. We do not know how long the pregnancy is. We do not know if she will need our help, statistically speaking. Anyone who can give us details about breeding bichons. We really would appreciate it.

We have had the puppy for about 4 days now. She is very very used to us as people. Whenever she says me or my girlfriend she will run to us and jump and get all happy. Other people she will run away from somewhat. Whenever we are around she always follows us everywhere in the house. She is a mix of a shih tzu and long haired chihuahua. She is 13 weeks old now. So we are having a few problems. One she is attatched to us and when we leave to go to work, she alwayswhines very loud at the door when we close it. The second problem is she won't eat her puppy food. Dry or wet. At first she ate is very well for the first 2 days, but now she will only sniff it. When we offer her some small amounts of human food, she will eat it in a heartbeat. I don;t think this is good for her. She is peeing a lot around the house, and pooping mainly one time a day. With little food in her system. I know she needs to be acustomed to where she is at, but she loves us. Lately she has been sleeping a lot as well.

Is it true that pitbulls can suddenly snap and go violent in spite of good
ownership and training? My neices have a pitbull and it seems to be just as loving and playful as most other well-raised dogs.
