well the problem is that i cant bring him in for a certain amount of reasons.one is not just because he sheds alot, but because he is a little wild. we've brought him in before and hes done alooot of damage to our house.he's chewed on alot of things, and messed up our dinner table.he is always well fed with good quality food. he doesnt seem to have a problem outside, there is a very big shed-like thing that he can wander in and out of.

I was just wondering what certain vaccinations:
-actually prevent in dogs
-how long they last
-which ones need to be renewed every year
I'm just curious because I was asked if my dog was up to date in her vaccinations and I honestly didn't know. She has had the distemper, parvovirus, adenovirus type 2, parainfluenza, bordetella, and rabies done in August of 2006. Do any of these need to be renewed before I get her spayed in Febuary??

My 13 year old daughter has been asking me for a puppy since late last year. She researched a few breeds (Lab, GSD, Golden Retriever etc.) and she knows a lot about them as she has been researching for over a year now. She is pretty sure she wants a Lab and she told me she would pay half of the cost of the dog (approx. $400) with her B'day and Xmas money. Ella is very responsible, goes to school, studies hard, loves animals and will be very comitted to the dog for the rest of her life. I told her I'd think about it but I'm not sure if I should get one. I'm the only one working. My husband has been out of work for 3 years and we aren't very financially stable. We are ALL overweight and a dog could benefit us a LOT. I know there are many things to consider when buying a dog and I was just wondering, could anybody give me some advice on what to do? Also, any other **BREED SUGGESTIONS** would be good. I also have an 11 year old son and 2 kittens so the dog must LOVE CHILDREN and LOVE CATS.

I have seen this previously on eBay , but it is now unavailable. It is like a typical plastic medium size dog bed that is made out of either clear plastic or acrylic, instead of the normal opaque ones.

I took him to the vet a couple weeks ago and he said that he is having heart troubles I dont see How that could affect his legs. The vet gave him some medicine and it was helping him now he is out of the medicine and he couldnt walk yesterday. He is very old. The vet said he is like 15 or somewhere around there. I love him very much. I dont know what I would do if he had to be put down or die. I would be very sad. Please help me.

According to experts, the answer is no.

Why? Popular breeds come and go. When ownership of one breed of dog is outlawed, those who want a dangerous dog simply turn to another breed. The Doberman pinscher—known as the dangerous dog breed of the 1970s—was replaced in popularity by the pit bull in the ’80s and the rottweiler in the ’90s. Breed-specific laws require that someone be able to prove that a specific dog is a member, or a mix, of that breed—not always an easy task. Boxers and bulldogs, for instance, may be mistaken for pit bulls. Any medium-large sized black and tan dog with a long tail may be mistakenly labeled as a German shepherd. Breed-specific legislation doesn’t acknowledge the fact that a dog of any breed can become dangerous. The law should protect your community from any such dog. Breed-specific laws are difficult, costly, and sometimes impossible to enforce. It’s one thing to require that every rottweiler in your community be muzzled whenever outside of the home; it’s another to fund and support adequate animal control staff to ensure that this happens. In 1987 the Cincinnati City Council banned all pit bulls within the city after a series of severe maulings and one human fatality involving the dogs. The ban was passed even though the state of Ohio and the city of Cincinnati already had statutes that allowed authorities to seize any dog known to have injured or killed a person or another dog. Nearly ten years later, the council’s law committee recommended that the ban be repealed, saying that it was unnecessary. The council recommended that pit bulls be handled like any other dogs and that owners be prosecuted only when the dogs were unrestrained or exhibited dangerous behavior. It made this recommendation in part due to the cost of enforcement. Confiscated dogs spent up to five months at the city’s contracted shelter while the cases against the dogs’ owners were being litigated. Many of the confiscated dogs were family companions with no history of aggression. Legislation that restricts breeds may actually create a population of dangerous dogs within your community. When a community imposes strict regulations on a specific breed of dog, owners of those dogs may end up chaining or caging the dogs for long periods of time. Dogs so chained or caged can be so desperate for activity that they become uncontrollable should they escape. Restricted dogs often receive little veterinary care because it is difficult for their owners to transport them to a veterinary facility without violating restrictions. Most importantly, restricted dogs who don’t get to experience normal opportunities for socialization and training will undoubtedly act in an unpredictable fashion when exposed to the real world

when people think of pitbulls they think of a wild beast, breed banning is wrong.society today want every race to be treated right. saying a dog will attack you, just because it is a pit. is like saying a german will kill you just cause your a jew... the world needs to wake up.. its the breeder not the breed. so screw the lady who put disposeofapitbull web site on here. dispose of you you judgemental p.o.s.

If you own a pit bull, or have owned a pit bull, did it turn on you?? I hear people saying "don't get a pit bull, they turn on their owners!" But i have NEVER met anyone whose pit bull turned on them. I work at a vet clinic and used to volunteer at an animal shelter, i have met a TON of pit bulls, they have all been SWEET dogs, and i plan to adopt a pit bull when i can properly care for a dog. I just want to know if this has actually happend to anyone on here, or if it all really just a bunch of hear say myths.

i took him outside for a usual walk, and then a strange dog began approaching him and circling him a lot, i was yelling out NO! to the other, collarless dog, but he just wouldnt leave , he just kept circling my puppy.
my puppy was moving away from him circling me, but the dog just wouldnt leave him alone, mine was all scared, he couldnt move fast enough so i helped him by tugging the leash a little away from the other dog, but the other dog was fast, and i was so scared so i dragged him a little sometimes by accident, but the dog just wouldnt leave
then i carried mine like a baby and took him away, the other dog left us alone after i carried mine, then we went back home.
the other dog wasnt growling or anything, just circling him, and he kinda looked like my dog's type of breed (wolflike), but mine was so scared of him that i had an "overprotective parent" reaction, my qstn is, how will this experience affect my dog? his relations with humans and dogs and his behavior in general?
