I dont want to make him more aggressive or mean. I would never fight my dog, I just want to bulk him up a lil bit. Any one have any ideas?

Do you clean a dog's behind after it has done its business? I'm a little discouraged to have my dog sit on my lap after she's been on a little trip outside.

WHAT A SCAM!!!!!!!!!
Is there really any danger to selling most dog medications over the counter or is this just a way for veterinarians to get more business?

do you think pinch collars are inhuman? explain why or why not. This is personal because i have a cockerspaniel that will not walk on a leash so we might have to use a pinch collar and i want to know some opinions on why or why not to use it. Thanks!

After being advised to do this by my vet, I've purchased a crate for my norwegian elkhound pup, and we're having difficulty. He hates being inside at night (which is understandable) but it's not because he misses his litter - he didn't have a crate for a week before and he was fine, but even though he'll stay in one place at night anyway, he tries to get out of the crate. So, to sum up my badly phrased paragraph, does anyone have any tips/advice/experience they can share to help my pup like being in his crate? He doesn't mind sitting in it with the door open, but if I close it; after he's finished with his Kong toy and he realises the door is shut, he will bark like mad (even though I get him to go in there when he's tired anyway)

The crate has water, a blanket, toys, treats, and I've never placed him in there as punishment or anything of the sort. Also I've never forced him to go in, I always allow him to step in by luring him with treats (as I was instructed to do so).

5 month old Golden Retriever/Border Collie Mix
Mother-In-Law recommends Ol' Roy (She had a Golden Retriever before and fed him that).
Brother-in-Law recommends Science Diet, since a Vet recommended it to him when he had a Chihuahua.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

My dog was recently hit by a car and taken away by the dog catchers. I feel terrible about it. They just left a note on my door saying he had been taken. They didn't say anything about him getting hit by a car or anything. The next day they say he's in the hospital and was given surgery. They also say he had worms. What kind of surgery would he be given and what are some general pet surgery costs?

Last fall, I got a dog from the local shelter. He had a bit of a case of separation anxiety. I slowly worked with him to get him comfortable with being alone while I'm gone for short periods of time. Now, that it is nice out, I want to be able to leave him in an outdoor kennel while I am gone. I have practiced with him by leaving him out there while I am home, but he insists on whining and barking. He may or may not do this while he is alone in the house, but outdoors he may bother the neighbors more than when he is inside. Is there a way to correct, at least, the excessive barking?

He peed on the kitchen floor while he was barking franticly at a man at the back door, so I thought it was because he was scared.
But then the very next day when he saw my brother-in-law, he peed on him while he was in his lap being pet....
So now I'm confused why he has these accidents. First I thought it was because he was scared, but now I'm not so sure.
Could a bladder infection cause this behaivior???
why is this happening to him???
I don't think it's something he can controll....

My dog is a female Chihuahua and she always barks at the slightest noise. Even if she hears cars going by on the street that are relatively loud, she continually barks, long after the car has gone by. Also, when my friends, family, or guests come over, she continually barks, long after they have entered the house and been there for a few minutes...when car doors slam, people knock on the door, any little minuscule movement triggers her to bark. I am not asking for her to never bark again, as that would be unreasonable, I am just hoping that someone could give me advice on how to make her stop barking after I have been alerted of the situation. I have tried telling her 'no', and other forms of 'scolding,' though my scolding has never gone beyond a strict NO! Needless to say, it didn't work, as she kept right on barking. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

yesterday i was washing my dog and he bit my finger pretty hard and i bled a lot. my dog is usually mean.
newais so like i was saying he bit me and after he bit me while i was holding him he started acting retarded and he peed on me which he usually don't pee on people. after that i put him on the tub and he started foaming from his mouth for couple of seconds and stopped and couldn't stand he kept falling to the side and couldn't control his balance.
but i heard if dogs have rabies they don't eat food or drink water
but my dog EATS a lot and DRINKS a lot so i don't know if he has rabies or not. Right now he's perfectly fine.
oh and after i got bitten i went to the hospital and got a shot on the arm incase if i get infected. if my dog did have rabies would that shot prevent me from getting rabies?
help please! i'm so scared T_T

i asked this question yesterday and I guess I should have mentioned that my dog is fixed! Would be silly to leave my unfixed female outside with this goofy dog! I would have to be insane or stupid, I am neither, thank you! This is why I am really wondering what in the world this neighbor dog is thinking. My dog is only tied out occassionally. She is inside most of the time, but I do put her out from time to time. Sometimes she is loose while WITH me and other times I tie her for a while. Hope that clears up any confusion from my first question. The neighbor dog is always running around free. we live in the country. He has never been trained or taught to mind, so it really isnt his fault that he appears to be so stupid! I have asked the neighbors before to keep him contained, but they never do. He poops over here all of the time.So,I have to keep my dog on worm meds year round.

Is there a way to add pertinent left out facts to already posted questions that I have asked?
