she has put some weight on but thats to be expected as she gets older she,s not as lively and playful as she usually is and she is slower when walking a few months ago when we were out walking her ,her back legs seemed to go from underneath her but it hasnt happened recently .Also shes not eating as much as she normally does .

I'm not going to get one soon, but when I move into my own place, i will get one.

I want a small dog that is easy to comb, (i prefer smooth coated dogs) doesn't have to be walked on an 2 mile hike, friendly, easy to train, lovable and cute!

I was thinking of a Jack Russell Terrier (JRT) or cross-breed but if you guys have better ideas they might change my mind.

We are trying to house train our Jack Russel Terrier puppy, He is 4 months old and he is getting better about not having as many accidents in the house but he needs to let us know that he needs to go out. He goes to the door but he is quiet. Then if we don't notice he is at a door he goes to the bathroom by the door. We want to train him to Bark at the door. SO how do we train him to bark once he is at the door and he needs to go out?

He is swelling in his stomach area and was very tender on his sides and didn't want to be touched. His poop is hard. I gave him a laxative and his stools has somewhat improved. He is a Chinese Pug.

A friend of mine is looking at adopting this uber fun and goofy dog. But we're trying to figure out his breed. What is posted is just a guess. He's around 100lbs and barely a year. Any other suggestions? We don't care we're just curious (really-we love this dog he's amazing)

Is it ok for my puppy to go into my garden (where the neighbour's cats have been!) before he has had his full course of innoculations?

There is a very yappy poodle next door. When I moved in, my boyfriend often fantasized about ways to shut the dog up, but never told the owner, but hated the dog nonetheless. So, being teh peacemaker I am, I get friendly with the neighbor, meet little Butters and now my boyfriend is better about Butters and we even joke about having Butters over for a playday. SO, the neighbor apologizes for the yapping the other day and he says, oh, it is okay, we even joke about it now, and how we like Butters. She seemed rather put off by this. What gives?

There is this dog I want to adopt. It is a Pomeranian and on the website for the dog, it says it's a senior. Does anyone know how old a dog has to be to be qualified as a senior?

My aunt has a dog (called fudge) and he keeps going over to the water bowl, has a small drink sometimes and then puts his feet in. He often looks like he is trying to dig through the bowl for somthing. He has diabeties and cataracts and cushings and is quite old if that is important. Please help because he keeps splashing water everywhere all the time!

My husband and I were discussing getting a doberman puppy. We have a 14 month old child. We have already decided on taking it to training classes and we were wondering if there was anything else we could do to ensure a healthy relationship between our son and the dog, if anyone has any suggestions on reputable trainers in the Southeastern Mass area, and if the sex of the dog makes a difference? Any and all input is welcome, except from the person(s) who will claim that all this dog will do is eat my kid. Thanks!

On both occassions my dog was under control on a lead. The first time the other dog got away from its owners, charged across the road and attacked my dog. My dog suffered a deep bite to his leg. The second time was a long a footpath, the other dog was off the lead and again it rushed in to attack. This time my dog had the muscles in his chest ripped. I am almost afraid to take my dog out now in case I meet this other dog especially as I often have to walk him with my 2yr old son. I wondered what action I can take to ensure they keep their dog under control or muzzle it. The owners of the other dog seem to have a constant list of reasons as to why it is my fault - my dog is on the lead, my dog is not castrated etc I attend obedience and agility classes with my dog and he is never aggressive to any dogs there.

I have wanted a dog since I was 2 years old I am almost 13 now.
The best birthday present wiuld be a yorkshire terrier.
But ever time I mention it to my parents, they just laugh it off and walk away.
they don't exactly say NO but they don't say YES either.
I would realllllllllllllllllllly want one and I just can't wait until I move uot because its is not for another 6 years.
I make my bed everyday without being told and complete all my chores when I am told.
My parents know well enough that I am responsible enough to care for a dog.
I would pay for things the dog needs such as vet care.

I know this costs a lot of money but I can get jobs like babysitting,dogsitting,dog walking.etc.
I would train it and walk it and play with it.
I heard yorkies are really snobby and yappy (but I love them anyways)!

please help me convince my parents and make my dreams come true!
My 13th birthday is in about 8 weeks and it would be the best

Our cocker was just diaganosed with multiple extrahepatic shunts. The extent of the liver damage is pending and are on some meds for her. She is doing pretty well, but is very fussy now on eating. She needs a low protein diet, but does not like the Hill's liver diet anymore, dry or canned. She likes certain treats and we have tried a few additives. When at the Vet hospital (OSU) they tried several things, but little success. Any ideas on what to do?
