Obvious question, I know. They're highly recommended by many very knowledgeable people and they've been around for decades.

But honestly, I've never had a dog who cares a thing about Kongs. I'll stuff Kongs with different stuff (peanut butter, kong stuffing, mostly loose dog food with a little bit of moist stuff). I've used big Kongs, little Kongs, soft puppy Kongs... Generally, the dogs nose it and nudge it for a few minutes and give up. Then it's forgotten by the people and the dogs for months or years before it's found with disgusting, moldy food in it.

Is there a trick to Kongs? Is it just that some dogs don't like them and others do? I'm mostly just curious.

She likes the Dingy doggy chews. They are small and just her size. But how often should you give them to her? She likes to chew on everything. She does not like the faked bones. What else can we provide to her?

He gets bathed like every other week and I know he's not allergic to the dog shampoo, he also is on Advantage for the fleas. I think he has allergies. I'm wondering if you can put baking soda or Aveeno, or oatmeal or something natural in the bath to stop the scratching/chewing going on. My Mom says that I should put vinegar in their drinking water.

From what I gather spaying /neuter surgery leads to killing of dog's basic instinct and become docile..I feel so guilty looking at my friend's dog who got sprayed. Does the dog deserve this kind of treatment for being your best friend & loyal companion. What would you feel if some one did this to you (i.e. placing myself in that dog place).. I always wish to adopt a dog but afraid to put my dog (and my consciouses ) through this.. Thanks in advance your answer..

I was just wondering if the question and answer deleting police would be happy if the guidelines were changed so that the asker or answerer deleted could know who deleted them and for what reason they claimed offense???

Yeah, I know i'm asking this in "dogs" but thats because this is where the biggest problem tat I've seen exists. I post 80% of my ?'s & Answers in Football, which is crowded with testosterone driven football fanatics and they don't go around deleting ?'s & answers because they get their feelings hurt or opinions contradicted. They simply remark on their answer or add details and move on. I personally find MOST of the people here in "dogs" to be genuinely honest and sincere people. Freedom of speech and yes even opinion, in AMERICA, is what we fought to death for, and it sickens me that some fiendish troll can censor at will. Personal diff aside, what is your thoughts on this as it appears in "dogs"?

I have a dog who is vary aggresive. Her aggresiveness is intermittant and cant really be pined to any specific thing. I have taken her to the vet and he thinks she might have a neurolgical promlem that might be causing her to act like this. I thought it would get better but it has been like this since she was a puppy, she is now 3 years old. She bites and sometimes wont even let us get near her. Other days all she wants to do is give affection. I love this dog to death, she is my baby. If the doctor is right and from what he says is the problem it will not be operable. Do i put her down or let her live out the rest of her life with these intolerable mood swings. I cant live with her while she has unpredictable behavior patterns. It's to much for me and its breaking my heart. Please any suggestions other than a dog training class, been there done that! Thanks

I'm having trouble keeping my puppy in an enclosed area. She cry's for 30 minutes then calms down for a bit then starts up again. Is there anything I can put in her crate, play pen or a locked room to calm her down? I tried her favorite chew toy, food, a warm blanket and a heat pack but nothings worked. Help me I need some sleep.

He had a stroke when he was only like four and his face has been lopsided since then, and when i woke up today, he had thrown up and the other side of his face was really droopy, and he was totally out of it..

my dad says he's been lethargic all day and hasn't been able to keep anything down, including his thyroid medication.

I'm too young to drive, but I might be able to get my mom to come home from work to take me to the vet today if it's really serious. I'm really worried about him and everyone is saying just to wait until tomorrow, but I don't want him to die! :[ Will he get worse if we wait? Should I just take him today?

Hello. My husband and I are both animal lovers, and want to get a dog! We just are not sure what kind to get, because we have a 1 year old daughter. If you have any ideas of kinds of dogs, that are kid-friendly and not too much trouble to take care of, they would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I am getting an awesome Bully, and in a few years I plan on breeding him to improve the breed. Of course I will keep up to date on shots, exams, heartgard, etc. But what else when he gets older? What screenings? Please tell me anything I should know. Thanks, God bless.

Let me just summarize this. I'm 16 and my 3 yr old Shiba Inu was struct by lightning three months ago. I miss her dearly and i miss having a little dog running around. Right now im stuck between my feelings and everything. On one hand I want another little puppy running around, but at the same time i feel guilty and am afraid that this new dog will erase the memories i have of her. If you havent guessed already, she was my first dog to die and i just dont know what to do. Also I love shibas but im afraid of getting another one. And also if I get a different breed i feel ill replace her like i have a new favorite breed. What should i do?

He is 3 yo sheltie. Has started grabbing anything from the counter / table and ate them with our 16 yo lab. I went out for an hr n came home seeing they hv got to the table n ate 4 pkts of instant noodles.

He is becoming more uncontrollable ... always looking for stuffs when no one is at home. We hv never had dogs that behave this way.

They are loving dogs but their behavior is unacceptable. What wld you do?

or does there have to be something wrong with it? I know someone with a really old dog who has arthritis in the hips, but thats about it. It's just caused by old age... The dog also has started going to the bathroom in the house b/c I guess it has a weak bladder due to the old age (does not have a bladder infection). I know his dog is ruining the carpets and he gets no sleep b/c he's up all night taking the dog out to go to the bathroom all the time. Are you allowed to just put the dog to sleep b/c it's getting old?
