Dogs - November 2007

if you had a neighbor with a dog in renal failure who is frequently asking you to come over to walk and feed his dog when he takes off for the day. Today I went over and there was a note to feed her food from the refrigerator. I grabbed a white bowl which he usually leaves to put her food in, uncovered the food, it looked like a meat/veggie meal and I put it down. She wasn't too interested, ate some, I put it back to find a pink doggie bowl with her food. YIKES wrong food. No phone number to call him, no vet's number, no one to contact. I've been over twice now because I don't want her to get diarrhea or vomit. There was a note for another neighbor to take her out to poo. I'm annoyed because he's too cheap to use a dog walker and leaves his old renal dog at home for the neighbors to take care of (I pay a dog walker).

I know you can make big moola with these designer dog breeds, so I was trying to think up something unique that I could have a monopoly on for this Christmas season.

I thought up a few new breeds I've never heard of before:
PooPoo: Half Poodle and half Poodle. These dogs are guaranteed to shed minimally and be great for people with allergies.

LabraLab: Half Labrador Retriever and half Labrador Retriever. These Christmas puppies make great family pets. The breeds behind both parents are well-known for their fabulous dispositions.

PomPom: Half Pomeranian and Half Pomeranian. Guaranteed not to shed any more than either parent.

What do you think? Do you think these will be the newest, biggest craze?

we were outside and he kept jumping on me and grabbing my shirt.

He can be a big brat but he can also be a sweetheart.

She is 2 years old and started licking her paw a lot. I noticed she has a raw spot on the pad of her paw. It looks like she either scraped it or cut it. She has had problems before with her paw (not the same thing) and the vet gave me some medicated pads to wipe it with. Vet bills are so expensive I was wondering if keeping it clean and watch for infection would be ok or should I take her to the vet ASAP?

Hello~
I am looking for a dog to train as a service dog. I was wondering, if you recived a letter from someone who was looking for a dog to train and asked if you would donate an older dog ( 6 months - 3 years) would you do it??? And if any body has asked you or written a letter to you how would you like them to word it so that youu would really think about do it???

Let me know!

PS: I am getting breeders names from the AKC. If you know anybody who breeds white Pulis or Komondors let me know.
Thanks!!! Jennnifer

My dog is always very friendly with the household family only. Today he had knocked off a plate from the table and started eating from it...when I took it away from him he growled, showed his teeth and bit me. What can I do to calm him down. He has a tendency to growl if you get near him while he is eating.

I found a dog a couple of months ago. His fur was very matted all over, maybe about an inch thick.
He had no collar or microchip when i took him to the vet.
He has all of his shots, and has an appointment to get neutered.
I am worried if someone says its their dog, can they take him away from me?
What can i do if this situation happens?

She is a yellow labrador retriever and she's about 10 months old. She likes to play bite and stuff. I try to hold her mouth shut when she does it but she just keeps on biting. How can I teach her not to bite? Also, how can you teach her "no". Like if she starts biting, tell her no. How can I do that?

2007-11-27 08:19:09 · 3 answers · asked by kendra 1

They are on his side and mostly on his back. They are "clustered" maybe 6-8. He scratches them and they bleed. I have given him medicated baths, put anti-biotic cream, hydrocortizone cream, which brings some relief but they dont go away. Has anyone had this happen to their dog?
I have changed his dog food thinking it may be an allergy. He comes back in the house like that when he goes out to use the bathroom or just "hang out" in the yard. He doesnt get it from being in the house, only when he comes back in from outside. It isn't ticks or fleas. If they were ticks I would see them would't I and be able to "pull them off"? And fleas, I would be able to see them. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

My German Shepherd dog is almost 2 years old, male and only 75 lbs, he's very skinny and I can see/feel his ribs and this is a big concern for me. I feed him according to his food's instructions, but I'm looking for ways to put some weight on him, but it seems to be very difficult since he is allergic to beef and wheat for sure and possibly chicken and corn. Can anyone recommend, good affordable treats that can help put a little weight on him, or does any know any home-made dog treat recipes for allergenic dogs? Thanks. :3

How many of you take your dogs collar(s) off in the house? I personally dont leave my dogs on. For safety reasons. While visiting relatives and friends, most have the collars on, and some off.

He'd rather starve than eat dog food. The only thing he'll eat is cheese. I know cheese is bad for dogs but there's nothing else he'll eat.

I am trying to train her (Judy), but she isn't getting some stuff. She knows "come" and "stay" really well, thanks to my other dog, who knows the command "come", so she followed her, and she knows it now :) but she isn't getting sit very well. The place where we adopted her from said she knew sit, but apparently she didn't. I keep trying to train her, but she wont sit, so how can I do it? And any other cool tricks I can teach her a little later on to impress people? I heard border collies were smart enough to do that :D thanks
