we rescued this cocker spaniel mix and we saw he needed a good cleaning, but then we saw his mouth at home. His breath literally smells like the sewer. his teeth are grey and his gums are covered in I don't know what.. but it's grey and really nasty in there. It looks like his gums are rotting. we brushed his teeth, but his gums seemed to hurt obviously. This dog was covered, i mean covered in fleas, a vinegar and water and dog shampoo killed all of those.. :) are there any home remedies for his gums? teeth? even if we have to take him to the vet for his teeth, is there anything they can do to reverse this? Can I do anything at home to help this??? please let me know if there is anyone dog rescuers that have dealt with this before.... i need help! so does he!

My dog was just lying down, in her bed, and then all of a sudden, she looks like she is choking. I really do not know how dogs cough, does this sound like a cough to you? She was at home all day, and was not near any other dogs. But she seems fine for one second, then the next, it is back to that hacking/coughing/sneezing sound. I am worried and do not know how I can stop this. All of our vets nearby are closed (It is 4:00 am here), so please do not tell me to drive to one. I just want to know what the problem could be, and how I can stop it. Please no rude answers, i just want to find out what is wrong with my 7 year old.

Okay, my friend loves dogs and everytime he gets one, his dad always kicks it out of the house! Now, my friend is babysitting this adorable puppy and if he takes good care of it, the owners will let him keep it! The bad thing is his dad might not want it and if he lets him have it, when it's old enough to stand on its own he'll kick it out! It's like a cycle of getting rid of dogs! This puppy might be the 8th dog to leave! What should my friend do?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She doesnt seem to be in any pain, and plays normal and wags her tail when she comes in, but every single time we walk her at night time, she takes a really long time to go, and she stays close by me in a half sitting position with the tail tucked under between her legs. Does anyone know why she may be doing this? She does her business, but it can take a long time for her to go.

I have a 2 year old Australian Cattle dog, and he is a character. He will put boxes on his head, dress up in clothes, jump into the pool at 3 in the moring then come get back in bed with you. One time he was in a realy deep sleep, and my kitten was licking him, and he twitched so much he fell of he bed. He is always running into walls/doors, when I open the garge door, he charges for it, and usually always hits his head on the door cause it isn't open enough for him.

He is a one of a kind dog, and he is hilarious. but no one ever believes me cause he is afraid of people. how can I get him to not be timid around other people, my belgian malinois LOVES people, but he jus tgoes and hides. I really need help especially since I have company coming for Christmas, and I don't wan him hiding and or barking/growling the entie time.

I have a 10 month Siberian Husky and he is the best dog ever; however, since daylight savings time has taken effect there is not enough sunlight to take him to the park by the time I get home. He used to be able to be left uncrated in the apartment and not destroy the apartment like he does and just play with his toys. We give him new toys almost every month. Anyhow, he has pulled my Xmas tree down three time chewing all the ornaments, chewing up anything he can get his paws on. I was wondering if getting another puppy would help curb this misbehavior when I am gone at work? I have been thinking about getting him a playmate as everyone I know says it would help, but will it really? Before anyone decides to be smart about obedience he is AKC good canine citizen. He does not act up when I am home, but when he is home alone. So, I'm wondering if he would be less bored and happier if he had a friend or if it would just be double the trouble?

I have a two year old yorkshire terrier. He is so perfect and I have been thinking about breeding him. I found somebody that I know that has one also. We have compared their pedigrees and neither of them have genetic problems. The dam has already been in heat one time. We are expecting her to go in again in another month or so. We have already found buyers. The male has a perfect temperment, not shy, very loving, loves people. The female is loving and a great companion. The male is 4 1/2 lbs, the female is 6. both are in perfect health. They both fit the criteria for the breed. We have totally researched the breeds and all there is to know about breeding. Are we ready? Is there anything elso that we should do?

There is a big (no pun intended) difference between a large breed and a giant breed? Giant breeds are not for the novice. They can cause a lot of damage, heartache and require early stern training. These giant breeds can be larger than the "large" breed dogs at six months of age.

I'm thinking about selecting a large breed dog in a few months as my lab just passed away 2 months ago. Well, according to a few sites i visited, the following breeds are considered large. I'm considering an English Setter, English Pointer, Clumber Spaniel, Bernese Mountain Dog, English Sheppard dog, or a Samoyed??? Give me your opinions! Thanks!!!

Do you think my dogs are pampered. They have a ton of room when there outside for the bathroom .They live inside. They have food that cost $35.86. ( or it was today!!!) I don't think it's expensive. They get presents and everything. They have their OWN rooms. a bed, couch, and pillows (2 or 3 each) They are Affenpinscher and Rottweiler. Do you think they are pampered and a little bit spoiled. THey even have a wardrobe of chlothes

A few centuries ago, purebreds didn't exist as we know them today but were more or less a type, depending on how isolated they were and how much the owners attempted to isolate them.

Today it's nearly impossible to get outside blood into a purebred genepool, even if it's for very good reasons and very carefully regulated.

One of the best examples of what I'm referring to is the Backcross Project. This incorporated Pointer blood into Dalmatians to eliminate some health problems in the Dalmatians. The Dalmatians were bred enough that the Pointer blood was very minimal. By the time this project concluded, AKC had decided not to register the offspring.

Do you think it's healthy for purebreds to get well-researched, documented, "fresh blood" every once in a while or does it ruin purebred dogs?
