Dogs - August 2007

I have a 7 mo. old Golden Retriever. My husband wanted a big dog. Well he got one....she's nearly 70 lbs already. I wanted a small dog (shi tzu, pomeranian, yorkie). Well, I'm still yearning for a small dog. One to sit on my lap and cuddle with. A dog I can take for walks without having my arm pulled out of its socket, etc. My Golden is quite hyper (she's getting fixed in a couple of weeks which might help). She'd never hurt the new puppy on purpose, she's just big and clumsy and very playful. Plus I'd probably baby the puppy and carry it a lot..... Is getting this new puppy a bad idea? I know there are a lot of people out there that own both a large and small dog......

My dog is soooo annoying. She is constantly chewing up things and if you tell her not to, she barks at you for 20 min. Then if you slap her on the butt she goes nuts!! What should I do ???? HELP

I asked this question eariler and wasn't specific enough i think... i got several people e-yelling at me. So, I have a small 30 pound lovely beagle spaniel mix. We adopted ehr under two eyars ago and we love her very much. Her health has declined on several loccasions since we got her. At this point she has arthritus and is on meds for it but still has stiff sore back legs. In addition she is a follo dog. She tries to follow us around and heard us all into one room. Despite her attempts to convince her to lie down she insistis on standing while we eat dinner, and walking around when we are not all sitting down in on e of the rooms with ehr blankets. So. My problem. bcuz (i think) of her stiff back legs, she sometimes ends up lying down when she turns quickly. She does not sturggle or try to get up again and seh seems comfortable enough. So, is it alright to leave her there is fhe seems comfortable and is in the position seh normally lies down in on her blanket?

It is never usually the same dog doing the killing, it is any of them and sometimes its the mother killing them. Because they are stray, although my parents large yard is their home, they are unable to catch them to take them to the vet. The dogs are friendly and nice but they do not let you get near them. Also the dogs have the puppies in areas where we cant get to and they often move them around.

wanted to ask...who here thinks that its terrible that perfectly awful people that fight, beat, abuse, and neglect their dogs are allowed to purchase them!? id love to make it a law that if you want to buy a dog...you have to get a back round check..it breaks my heart to see dogs dying because of stupid owners. anyone agree?

We called the vet and they said that there really isn't anything they can do for her at this point. Does that sound right? The can was empty so she didn't have the soda, but can the metal damage her internally? Any advice would be welcome!!!

You see I have privacy fence and so does the rest of my neighbors around our back yard so once he starts he goes to the corner of our yard and barks and I can't see what he is barking at. So I grab the squirt water bottle and seem to help but will it stop him for good from barking in the near future when he goes out there?

i want to get a dog but petstore or online? Is it mean that you go to a petstore you see a dog that you like but you didn't want that dog, but you just keep looking at . or go online and not feel bad that your looking but the dogs can't see you looking at it. does that make sense?help

dog fighting becoming a racial issue??? In my opinion the reason it has received so much publicity is because he is a football star not because he is black. It is so sad to me that this becoming racial and not staying focused on what happened to those poor babies. I don't understand.......
