its a pure breed cocker spaniel. she is registered and everything. we decided to keep her. so my question is: how can we get ahold of the papers saying shes registered..without confronting the family? and about licensing her...she doesnt have a collar or anything so i dont know if she was licensed. how do i go about getting that. im not even sure what i need to do. so basically, this dog is registered for being purebreed, and i want to make it official that im her owner.. how do i go about doing this?

I was bitten on my leg by a Rottweiler on Saturday and after speaking to other people about it they said I would probably be scared of dogs now. Has your experience made you scared of dogs?

German Shepherd/Shepherd Mix
Great Dane Dogs
St Bernards

The reason I ask is that a lot of people I meet say my breed of dog is dangerous and bad with other dogs and people. They fail to realise however that German Shepherds are way more dangerous and even Great danes and believe it or not St Bernards. So go on try and guess....... Oh and by the way for all labrador owners out there in 1995 they were number five on the most dangerous dogs list. Are they really as cute as people think? I think not! Just making you aware of facts, Akita's are not attacking people anywhere near as much as other breeds like, German Shepherds - Labradors - etc.

I have a 5lb female chihuahua puppy. She's about 2 years old but still has problems with potty training. She pees outside on our front lawn but for some reason she still poops inside the house. I've noticed that she likes to go in covered areas such as.. under the bed.. under the drawer.. I think it's just weird. And no matter how long I wait outside for her to go, she doesn't go until she gets inside the house. It's like.. when she has to go, she will go no matter what time it is or where it is. It doesn't seem like she can hold it in. Does anyone have any ideas? Suggestions?

Don't you agree that Labradors are the perfect dogs?

I've had other dogs in my life and nothing compares to labradors. What do you think?

I have a 7 year old Rottie/Shepherd mix that I have had since he was 6 months old. He is pretty much like my child. My new husband just told me yesterday that he can't stand the amount of hair that Romeo sheds and I have to find him a new home or else. We've discussed shaving or grooming and the hubby won't even examine these options. His view is that he feels it's gross to have any dog hair in the house. I love this dog like my child, but this may have a huge impact on the hubby and I's relationship in a really negative way. I also feel it's cruel to find new owners for this dog that I love so much and it was a bad ultimatum, what do I do?

She is prone to ear problems, and it rains a lot here. I see that the more often you can walk your dog the better. And don't suggest a hat because it would be shedded in an instant. I can hold the umbrella over her, but I look stupid and it's difficult. What do you think?

Basically first person to guess correctly gets best answer. I'm just curious to see if anyone can guess based on a puppy picture and an adult picture. Anyway, have fun!

She seems to be having too many! She eats Wellness Puppy Super5Mix according to directions on the product package. She is fed twice a day, early morning and late afternoon. (No other food) I take her in the backyard often to potty. She has bowel movements frequently during the day.
I'm not sure whether the problem is that I am taking her outside too frequently or whether this is not a good food for her?
How often should a five-month-old puppy need to eliminate?

Another concern is that she has always been able to hold her bladder a very long time! (She has water available at all times.)

So, I've been looking for a puppy and I've noticed that a lot of breeders now make you sign a contract. Some of them are great because they simply list things such as the puppy will be well-cared for, not abused, and if the owner gives up the puppy at any time, the breeder gets him/her back. A lot also have spay-neuter contracts for dogs who will be strictly pets, which isn't too bad. But I've noticed others are pretty demanding. Some restrict the foods you can feed it. I've even seen one that listed several "premium" foods you couldn't use and some of them even make you agree to an all-natural diet. Others mandate that you name the dog like "Kennels' dog," which seems a little ridiculous. I mean, the dog is mine now, not theirs anymore. Why should I name him/her as if he's theirs, especially if he'll just be a pet and not a show dog or a breeder? So what are your thoughts on these contracts? Do you think they are fair? What parts do you agree/disagree with?

when my maltese gets neutered Wednesday? How will he act? Will his personality change in any way? It would be great if you had personal experiences to share. Thanks for all your help; it is greatly appreciated.

thanks to everyone who answered my question...it helped put my mind at ease. I had pretty much already made the decision, but was looking for an out.
I took him today to be put to sleep..worst day of my life, but at least Bo's happy now. I canceled my afternoon appointments at work and spent the day with him. We went to Subway where I got the "double meat" and had them put it in a bag. We went to hang out in the field behind the vet and he had his turkey and some water, about the only things he'd take in.
Then he got enough energy to make the walk into the office, and I think he knew it was time. The walk took forever cause he could barely move, and I think he was showing me that he didn't want to leave even though we both knew it was best.
He calmly walked into the room and took his place on the blanket and was so calm. The vet did his thing and I sat with him and balled my eyes out for half an hour.
I only wish you all could have known him. He was so cool. Best dog in the world.

We moved to a new state from California last year, only to discover the horrible conditions for local animals. The only non-kill shelter for SEVEN surrounding counties is full to capacity, not accepting any more animals. The local animal shelter puts down nearly three quarters of all the animals it receives; killing 285 animals last month. Their staff is unfriendly and unwelcoming of volunteers. Abandoned looking barns near the road by my home are known for dog abandonment; I've rescued four dogs from there, myself. Unfortunately, the land's owner will shoot any strays he sees. Another symptom of the poor care: law enforcement officers can only remove an animal if it is proven they receive inadequate food, water and/or shelter. There in lies my problem. My neighbors have two large dogs.Both dogs are walking mats; I've never seen anything like it! They have difficulty moving...they barely made it through the heat of the recent drought. Is there anything I can do?
