Is breeding and showing all you do with your time? I mean, from what I understand it's both very expensive and time consuming, so where does the money to live off of come from? I know somebody's going to take this the wrong way, but it's not meant that way at all, I'm just wondering do y'all have "real" jobs? Is it a matter of breeding is a "hobby" for stay at home mommy/daddy breeders?

I started thinking cuz I just got a puppy and my GOD is she hell to take care of. I love it, don't get me wrong, but I haven't had a proper night's sleep since she came home with me. I'm not sure I could immagine have multiple puppies as well as females that go into heat and need to be kept away from the boy dogs.

Also, what kind of education would be needed to be a breeder, beyond the dog world stuff?

His is a 1 year old lab - he has had many toys but that doesn't stop him chewing anything else he can find. It doesn't make any difference if he has been walked for hours a few times that day & the non-chew spray stuff doesn't work.
I have stopped buying him toys recently (even the ultra "strong" virtually "indestructable"ones (kongs ball of rope knots etc) as he destroys them totally, sometimes within the first 10 minutes & sometimes it takes him a couple of days. He has chewed his beds too so now at night when he is in the kitchen all he has is a blanket (which is ripped to shreads). He doesn't have any toys or even a bed anymore which I feel bad about but I can't keep giving him things to destroy within minutes!
I thought it used to be because he was teething & when his teeth had grown it would stop, but it hasn't.
Any advice please, I feel like I have tried everything.
Thanks.

That's all there is to say about it. She is spoiled pretty bad, which I will admit is my wife and my fault, but now we need to de-spoil her because hopefully there will be the firstborn on the way soon. Anyway, she always slept on the bed with us (she's a Pomeranian, not a great dane by any means), she's been potty trained since day 1, and she's never really left alone. The problem is, if she doesn't get her way, she will bark..... and bark..... and bark. Normal dogs would eventually give up, but not her. She just jumped off the bed and then barked for 35 minutes to get back up until I took her and locked her up. She will pee outside and I sit there and wait for more than 10 minutes waiting for #2, but as soon as I bring her in, she runs in the living room and goes. I tried the thing where you sit them next to their poop and make them smell it. She sat there..... and then ate it. She has no problems making a mess and laying in it either. What is wrong with her!! She is psycho

My dog loves ice cream, peanut butter and beefaronis. Are these okay to give her in small amounts every once in awhile?

Instead of chowing down on is food really quickly, he's eating over an hour or so. The only reason it concerns me is that last week he had some diaherra and threw up once. I figured it was just something he ate. Then yesterday his diaherra came back. I'm taking him to the vet on Friday...Should I hurry up and take him in sooner? He's a border collie/pit bull. 20 lbs. I feed him purina one puppy 2 cups a day. no human but I have been giving him some rice along with his pup chow for the diaherra. hes acting normal.

My dog is a chocolate lab and springer spainel and she is scared of all loud noises like a flash of a camera, a thunderstorm, and fireworks. She shakes, drools, and pants(however you spell it) and hides in one spot and wont move. Is there anything I can do to prevent that?

Our dog ate some truffles and since he is very small (7 lbs.) I tried to induce vomitting by giving him a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide. It's been over a half hour now and he still hasn't thrown up. Now my fiance and I are worried he's going to die from the peroxide. Does anyone know if peroxide harms dogs if digested? Thanks in advance.

We have had her for 6 weeks, and she would eat 3-4 times a day and eat alot of food, i mean like 2 1/2 cups at a time. But now she is 3 mo old and she will only eat 2x a day and then she will pick at her food. She wont eat all of it, or even most of it. Should I be worried? I mean you cant see her ribs and she weighs 16 lbs. Her pics are here so i will prove she isnt starved or obese. Serious answers only please.
