She is very scared and shy just meeting new people. I thought I'd give her a chance. I know she will be terrified moving into a new home with new people. How should I furnish her kennel? Should I use blankets? Should I place it so only one of the four sides can see out and put it in a corner?

I had a 9 year old chow mixed, yesterday he was completely fine and healthy, this morning he was very ill and died 3 hours later, I would like to know if anybody could give some tips on the diagnosis/cause of his death as I think he was poisoned by my racist neighbour.

Symptoms:
Black Gums (think its normal for chow)
Thirsty
Very weak, struggling to walk
No vomiting
No Bleeding (rectal or oral)
No swelling (stomach flat/normal)
Not dehydrated
Eyes did not have any doscoloring or other

When I checked him, he was fine. The only thing I noticed was that he was very weak, he struggled to get up but he did get up and drank some water, he did walk around for a while and died where he ususally sleeps.

Please help, thanks

I just got my lab puppy yesterday and it can't stay away from me. If we are sitting down and I get up to get a drink of water, then it is right next to my feet. If I have to go to the store for something and I don't want to bring it with me, I put it in the back yard. It goes crazy making noise, and squealing like it is hurt or something. Is that just fake crying like babies? Will he get over that and be able to stay outside by himself? He is even tearing up my wooden back door and sliding his way in. I've brought him inside already. He sleeps with me. I don't understand.

Should I use the type that go in like a rubber band and try and grab some of the puppies hair (I did this they fell out) I also have some softer bigger ones that are for kids that can go around the whole ear but not sure if that is a no no - it doesnt hurt as they are large enough but not sure if it messes with hearing. All the sites for bows dont specify how to do a cockers hair and shes such a lovely little girl? Any help? Thanks

Let's say you got one female dog and one male dog as puppies and you just love their temperament, skills, personality. Would it be inhumane to breed them just so you can have more generations of your two sweet dogs?(You know every consequences and risks of breeding, how much it'll cost and how many puppies will come) Or just spay/neuter them and get another dog? and just enjoy what you got?

Please no bashing no harassing. If you say yes to breeding what's the safe way?

I am NOT planning on breeding anything I just love getting information on general topics like this one.

Well, this one is for Doberman experts. We just got a new 4 year old male into our rescue. His front shoulder and elbow joints seem a little more wideset than the other males. Like almost a little bowed when he stands. It isn't major and in fact I didn't even notice until a few days after he came in and he doesn't seem bothered at all. Is this normal or is it something that can cause him problems? I just don't want to adopt him out without first making sure that he will be okay.
The vet didn't seem too concerned, but I just wanted to check with you Dobie people.
I can get you a picture if you'd like me to email it to you. I'm not talented enough to put them online!!

It is the end of the summer and not cold, I know he gets scared easily and hides his face under my neck if I pick him up. But everytime I try to get him to go for a walk outside he shakes ALOT and it scares me--Is it possible for him to have heart failure or should I just keep trying to get him outside? I want him to have exercise as we live in a one bedroom appartment (to him it's big) But it is not enough to ware him out for the night. Has anyone experienced similar problems?
Any advice would be great!

** He is 9 weeks old

Okay she already has an appointment to go in but just trying to see if anyone has any ideas.

She is a 16 month old beagle who is up to date on all shots and vaccines, and has been altered.

She has lost her appetite, to the point where she barely eats (she has always eaten very little but it is different now). She also has ocassional vomitting. She will throw up what ever she has eaten, but it is not every time or everyday. She has vomited about 4 times in five days, only once twice in one day. She has been licking at the floor and drinking alot too. I am not sure why she is licking the floor, it is kept clean and she never did it before.

She is still just as energetic and her personality is not at all affected by it. There is no diarreah either.

If you have any ideas please let me know. Again I am not looking for a diagnosis just some thoughts before her appointment.

Hi ppl

I have close to an 8month old German Shepherd Pure brred Girl puppy. She is very classy looking but in my head she could do to gain weighht. She thinks eating is like a chore..she only eats when i keep putting the food bowl by her every time she lies down and this takes and hour to get at least(when im lucky) She eats the purina puppy chow.(i know its fuccccked up food here in the caribbean they probly to cheap to buy proper dog food for the stores (they sell pedigree-Purina_beneful)commercial brands.Neways she eats but with a gripe and i dont see ribs but i can feel them so should i have her gain weight or what cuz she supposed to be a large breed dog. Also i have a 5month malegermanshepherd and actually he looks bigger than my 8month old Wats with this..Does ths have to do with her being sick for at least a MONTH with Lepto(aka Jaundice) cuz she came back from the vet like a skeleton.neways has this affected her growth cuz i think she shud be big.Will she be small 4everhlp
