So I have a 3 year old female Siberian Husky that has had a difficult time adjusting to recent moves. Previously, we lived on an acre of land with two other dogs (lab mixes). I'm now living in the city with a tiny yard (big house though) and my roommate has a 6 year old beagle. The beagle won't really play with the husky and she is really quite sad and depressed. She won't go out in to the yard much either, but when she lived in our old house, she'd go out for hours. So I am thinking of getting another dog (we won't be in the city for more than a year) and need help chosing it. I don't really want a super high energy dog, but I do want one that will play with the husky. Everytime I take her to a playdate with other dogs, she becomes the dog she used to be. I plan on getting a rescue/shelter dog and it can be older as well. I am not home a whole lot so it would also be good to be a breed that is not needy, so to speak. Suggestions?

Thank you for your time! I am finally getting my dream puppy (Shetland Sheep Dog) I have been planning to name him (yes, I am gettiing a boy) George. I have wanted this dog for 10 years and the time is finally right and for 10 years, his name has been George. NOW my husband says "you should really wait till the thing develops a personality before you name him." BLAH. Problem is, I am so blinded with 'GEORGE' that nothing else is coming to mind....any suggsestions for names?

We have a 3 yo Cocker Spaniel who we bought privately when she was 9 wks. My daughter had been terrified of dogs, so we bought a smallish one from puppy to help overcome her fear. But at 9 wks we took the dog (Ebony) to show n tell at school. It snapped at one of the children. We have 7 children and constantly have children coming and going. While Ebony is great with our children and us, any strangers, especially young children she can bark vigorously at. She can go up to them, be all nice, then all of a sudden can turn and bite with a very angry growl. She has done this to about 3 or 4 visitors, all unprevoked. We were going to take her to the RSPCA & kids were upset so we had her desexed hoping this will help. B4,she has stayed at a boarding kennel twice, when we've been away & they thought she was a beautiful dog! So are we doing something wrong I thought. But I still feel nervous when we have visitors, especially kids, so she goes in the laundry, which is unfair. Undecided

Why do westerners condemn the eating of dog meat but eat beef?

The common justification against dog meat is that dogs are man's best friend. But in actual fact, it is the Western man's best friend. The rest of the world treat it as any normal animal. Yet Westerners scream murder when they see dogs being eaten in Asia.

Similarly, the Hindhus treat cows as sacred animals. So why don't the westerners stop eating beef and all that big mac.

Please read th
Okso my dog has had a cough for about a month now also he has lost some weight. So we took him to the vetAll he did was listen to his heart with the stethascope thing and said he 'suspects' there is somthin wrong with his heart But obivously his heart was beating extremly fast as he really hates going into the car and he hates the vets so he got himself all worked up and we had to drag him into the vets door as he hates it so much. He was so scared he was shaking So I dont think the vet really cared n just said the first thing that came to his mind He gave us tablets He still seems to be coughing but not as much and I dont see how a cough has anything to do with his heart
The vet asked us did he have dioreia or was he less active. And he has none of them he runs about like his crazy normal self and still has a very big appitite. But since going I cant stop crying as I dont want him to die. Im not sure what age he is buthe is about 8r9 What could be wrong with him?

Do you think that having a dog in your house would make someone think twice about breaking into your home? If the dog is inside and barks when someone is outside. What are your opinions?

The dalmation is still a puppy (15 weeks, not spayed yet female), and the dachshund is a 2 year old neuetered male. They play around a lot now playfully biting each other and pinning each other, but I'm worried that the dachshund will get hurt. Is this wrestling important for their development and establishing who's "boss"? I want the dachshund to be the boss because he's older, but I really really don't want him to be hurt. Any suggestions?

I gave one of my border collie pups to a "friend" (ha) who seems to care less and less for this beautiful 1 yr. old. At Christmas he placed his two dogs in a Kennel which was nearly full. He agreed to place two medium sized dogs in a 2'x 3' cage. The little door to the outside had been locked for at least 9 hrs when I arrived to fetch them three days later. There was no water left for them. The room was dark at 1:30 p.m. My "friend" was aware of these conditions and left the dogs to that treatment. I have his dog (my ex-dog) now and I do not want to return her to him. What are the dogs legal rights???
