I just got mine today. It was sleeping most the time. When it woke up, we took her outside so she could pee. Now shes is acting kind of wierd by biting things she didn't before. Is the normal husky behavior to bite the carpet, toys, and shes trying to bite me.

My 8 year old pomeranian was accidently left outside last night. This morning, he seemed stiff, and was crying/yelping. However, he seemed fine shortly after. When I took him for a walk this afternoon, he was running around and having fun. We took a short break, and he just fell over and starting yelping/screaming in (what i thought was) pain. I took him home and started to examine him to see where he was sentisve to my touch- he was senstive no where. Then I was just sitting there petting him and he did the same crying/yelping/screamin thing. I don't know what is wrong with him. It is the most difficult thing ever watching him and not knowing how to help.

I have a 10 month old Am Bulldog/Staffy mix puppy. He LOVES to play fetch inside our house with his red Kong. However, our house is pretty tiny to play fetch in and so we take him to this large empty field down the street, so he can run and fetch farther. We also bought him a red rubber ball to play fetch with at the field.

Here's the issue: When playing with his ball, he will retrieve it, but will NOT bring it to us to throw again. He won't drop it, or even let us get close enough to grab it. I don't want to chase him, because I believe this to be counter-active, and I don't want to sneak up on him and grab it either.

Why does he love to play fetch inside with one toy, but doesn't like to outside with another toy? It's like outside, the fetch part isn't rewarding enough for him.

Has anyone had experience with this problem, or any suggestions?

He is a little shaky on the "drop" command, but will do it when neccessary. Other than that, he is very obedient. Help!

My 18 month old chihuahua got up this morning with swelling on his neck. It spread up to his eyes with no difficulty swallowing, eating or change in personality. He doesn't seem to be in any distress. My husband gave him Benadryl and the swelling subsided for the most part. About 6-8 hours after the initial dose of medicine, the swelling is now localized to his forehead (he looks like a unicorn) and a little bit under his neck. It is all soft tissue swelling.

There has been no change in his daily routine. He's not running a temperature. There does appear to be a little redness under his fur in that area, but he seems asymptomatic except for the swelling and some minor redness.

Any idea what it is or what causes it?

Thanks.

I have a year and a half old beagle mix. She is my baby. I really want another dog though but my husband says it's going to be too much. Is it really much different having two?

The reason she won't let me isn't because i'm irresponsible. She just thinks a dog will ruin the house. Everyone in my family wants one sooooooooooooo bad, but she won't let us!! what should I do???

My puppy is 9 months old and everytime she jumps on us we tell her OFF, we then turn around and ignore her but she refuses to mind. This has become very stressful for all of us, does anyone have any suggestions on how to get her to mind?

in my dogs akc papers there is some white shepherd in his bloodlines on his mothers side. and now white shepherds are a sepperate breed. it doesn't make sense to me if that is true then how can he be a pure bred dog? how ever on his fathers side the bloodlines are awsome there are some national champions.

I had my doberman's ears cropped at 12wks. The vet did not want to post the ears after initial surgery for fear of infection, so we wated approx. 2 wks for ears to heal and have stitches removed. I feel this had a negative impact on progress... its been nearly 3 months since the surgery and the ears still will not stand correctly. The pup will be 6 months on 20 June. Is this too late to expect the ears to stand correctly or is this avg.? I've had other owners tell me i may have to do a second crop... is this true?

How much should a St.Bernard eat each day ? I was told two meals a day, because if they eat to much they can bloat. Is this true ?

My puppy is only about a year old and he is now teething(sp). But it has gone way too far! He has chewed up a snow glove, his bed, TONS of stuffed animals, my T.V. channel changer, and all of his toys behind my back! Now I have no idea how too stop it! Please tell me what I should do! I'm not giving him away or putting him down so don't even bother writing that down! If you can tell anything I can do or any books that would be great! Thanks so much!

My dog has never eaten dog food ever since we got her about 4 months ago. She loves every other type of food apart from dog food! I could give her a bowl of cereal, she would eat it all. Same goes for every other food I try to eat! She just won't eat her own food. Is it the smell? Because I don't think she has ever even tasted it.

She is a lhasa apso if that helps.
