My Husband and I are going to retire in one year. I have a 7 year old female American Eskimo. She is wonderful, but she has one severe problem. She barks loud. She doesn't bark at night but she barks at anyone going by the house or near. The reason for my question is we are going to buy a RV and travel for three months before we settle down in South Carolina in a lake community. The houses are close together like in a resort.

I don't want to bother my neighbors. Where we live now we have never had anyone complain about her. But I know That she will bark and I also would like to have friends over. Even my Son says when he comes over that it does get on his nerves.

I have disciplined her, but she is very strong willed. She is not aggressive or ever bitten anyone. Help please.

on christmas my inlaw's dog bit the face of my 18 month old neice. the child did not even notice the dog, which is a lhasa, (just to put a stop to the pit bull lynching mob), the dog jumped off the couch and aggressivley attacked her cheek. thankfuly no skin was broken. have a 1 year old child who could have been the one attacked just as easily. now my inlaws say the dog was just nervous because of the commotion and they will watch him closer. but they are not going to put him in a seperate room, or crate because he will think he is being punished. well now i'm the bad person because i will not let my child go over without me there and she can't get down if the dogs are not put up. am i wrong?


just to add, their other dog is a shih tzu, and they even admitted that they thought he would be the one to finally get one of the kids, not the other dog. this is why i'm insisting both dog be put up.

also these dogs run the house and do whatever they want, with no consequences

She's a 9 month old pug. Her bowel movements are normal, we feed her hard food. She started 'scooting' 3 days ago, so i called the vet, they said it means her anal gland needs to be emptied. So we took her there yesterday. But this morning after she went out to do her business, she scooted again after she came back in. Did they not empty it properly? Or is it something else?

I have a 1 year old shephard mix dog that rubs his nose on the carpet. He does it at least once a night while we're watching tv. He makes a noise like he's blowing his nose and rubs it for about 2 minutes. Why is he doing this? Could he be sick? Could he have an allergy? Any info?

I have a 10 month old Doberman and he generally is a good dog but thenhe has his days where he will become disobediant, scrounging for food when he has food in his bowl and he'll pinch things from off the sides. As for chewing he leaves a trail of mess behind him worse than children. I have looked on the net but they always ask you to pay and i cant guarentee it will work. If i dont get it sorted asap my mum says she will get rid of him. does anyone have any suggestions or ideas. Desperate please: serious answers only

I have previously owned an apricot female toy poodle for 14 years. She was my constant companion and was as close to me as my parents and brother. Now that I'm married with two children (3 & 5 years old), we are getting two toy poodle puppies (one female, one male) very soon. Does anyone have experience with two or more poodles as pets? If we get a third (which would be a male), are there any problems with having two males and one female. They will all be "fixed" and they will be raised together from very young puppies.

i'm so sick and tired of people wanting to defend this type of breed as I believe it was created out of sheer human evil - to fight. i have nothing against the animals but I sure do against people who claim it all depends on the way the dog has been raised. that may be true, but my question really is, then would someone please explain why a person probably can't get killed by a labrador retriever but there are reports from all over the world about someone being killed by a pit bull. i think you see my point...

thanx

My female just turned 1 yesterday as well as went into her first heat all in the same day. She is a dominant female and I had considered spaying her instead of breeding her in hopes that it would calm and settle her down. However, I am having second thoughts as since she has gone into heat, you can see a difference in her, she is calm as well as listening to commands. As far as the dominance, she is not nasty or anything like that, she just doesn't always want to listen to the stay command and sometimes that causes difficulty as there are 4 of them. Any suggestions?

I currently own a yorkie mix lap dog. I am looking for a larger dog that can handle a daily run and be a good family pet. I have heard from two labradoodle/goldendoodle owners that neither of their dogs are as smart as the purebred version (lab or poodle). Just wanted to hear some feedback from other owners. Also, how bad is the shedding?
