She was thoroughly potty trained, she was at the point that she would claw and wait at the door to tell me she had to go out side to pee. My puppy is 7 months old, and she just had her spay last week, ever since her spay she seems to be regressing back to her younger puppy days when she used to pee in the house and in her crate. Is this normal behavior after a spay? Or is this her way of trying to find out what she can and cannot get away with? Any suggestions??

Somebody told me that she's so young and still weening. I'm worried because she only wants to sleep with me. I'v had her only a few days and she just cries and cries if i place her in her cage. I tried to keep her in the cage last night and she cried (loud) for 4 hours straight. It was heartbreaking and since then she's slept with me. Unfortunately it;s very uncomfortable for me as it causes me to loose sleep. Maybe it was too young to leave her mother. If so, why didn't the breeder tell me this -or is this normal. Plus, I;m a new puppy owner so this makes me very nervous and (tired). She's adorable and I only want the best for her. Does anyone have any suggestions regarding this? Please help!

They are floppy ears similar to that of a lab, yet more upright. They aren't typical pomeranian ears, but i love them. Is there any way I can train the one ear to stay down like the other? He is three months old (teething)
Thank You!

the lady i bought him from emailed me today and asked me to check and see if he had both, and to my surprize he has only one, i guess another male in that litter has only one too. now heres my question. when i bought this puppy it was for breeding to my two females, they all are well bred and are show quality, this lady knew what i wanted him for, this is very hereditary and i can not breed him. he is five months old, i told her i should get my money back and that i do not want him,she said he had them when i bought him at 8 weeks so she will not take him back, is that possable that he had them then but not now. Do you think i'm wrong asking for my money back? this lady is a big time dog shower & breeder. i payed good money for this dog and can't afford to take this kind of loss, and on top of that it will cost about $380.00 to get him neutered.I plan to cream this so called big time boxer breeder,s name all over the state of calif, i will be at every dog show she is at with that male

I have a 3month old shih tzu and I was advised to brush his teeth everyday. I would like to keep his mouth clean since I let him lick my arm and kiss me. I am I supposed to brush his teeth? His teeth are very small... do I use special brush and toothpast?
Also am I supposed force his mouth open? also how do I rinse his mouth?

My female dog is 2 and a half and she's not been mated before. She is ready for her stud now and yet having stood for him she then yelps and panics when he actually enters her.

He somehow managed a tie this afternoon, but it took it out of him so much I thought he was going to flake out with exhaustion.

I am due to have the second mating in a couple of days, will I always have to go through this where she is uncomfortable or will it improve later in the season or with age?

In addition to this I am concerned that if the mating itself caused her to react like this, how will my girl cope with the pain of whelping.

I have checked The Book Of The B*tch and it does not mention this particular aspect of mating.

Thanks for reading.

My hubby thinks it stinks. I think its sweet, just like the smell of a new baby. How many think so too? It doesn't stink, its fresh and clean, hasnt been into dirt, or poop, or got that bad dog breath yet, its perfect! Like my new puppy, isnt he adorable?

Today I took a look at my puppy *papillon, 11weeks give or take* and noticed she looked chunkier than I swear she looked yesterday. I got her on the scale and sure enough she's put on more than half a pound in less than a week, but that's not the bit that's got me all worried.

She's sleeping on my lap right now, belly up and there's a deffinant lump in her stomach. It's like this alien thing, I was just kinda feeling around and unintentionally put a bit more pressure on the lump and it went down, kinda like squeezing the air out of a section of baloon. Within seconds the lump reffilled with a gurgling sound. Feeling around some more I found her stomach in general is behaving like this.

I have an appt for her tomorrow afternoon, so telling me to see a vet is moot point, but please for the love of god tell me it's just gas or something so that I can sleep tonight. Don't lie to me, though.

I have politely asked my neighbor to keep his Doberman Pinscher in his yard. This happens at our beach house. He is a veterinarian. His dog scratched my six-year-old daughter on the face this past September. I called the Dog Catcher. He made a report. Privately, he told me to get some chickens and put them in a pen in the yard. When the dog comes over to attack the chickens, the Dog Catcher says I then have a right to kill the dog because it is attacking my livestock. I can't even walk my dog on her leash because his dog is barking and acting aggressive. I think it's go time.

Whenever I lay down next to him he like to rest his neck on my head and just stand there.

And one time I saw him rub his neck in dead crawfish. (He got a good bath after that one)

I know the scent thing might have to do with hunting instinct, but I don't know why he would want to rub his neck on me?
