Dogs - December 2007

Hello everyone and happy new year! Usually, when I hold my 9 month yorkie by his scruff to bath him i feel the little microchip. Now I can't feel it at all. I tried looking for it to see if maybe it slipped somewhere on his back or the front of his neck but nothing. Should I be worried? Does he need to get it removed and will he still be able to be identified if he gets lost? Thanks!!

I have a 8 month old German Shepherd and hes been scratching His ear for about a week now. It is bleeding on the Flappy part of his ear not inside. His ear is starting to get red and it hurts him so much that I cant touch it or sooth it so he would feel better. I dont know if hes just scratching his ear like a normal dog. Do you think its because he has long nails (i dont cut them cause i dont know how.) or is there an infection. Please help. Im really sad right now =(

My puppies will turn 5 weeks old tomorrow. They are pooping and peeing everywhere and I just want them out of here! When can I get rid of them?

Will the pound take them now, or do I have to give them the mother too?

I'm curious, how many people got a new puppy for Christmas and had no clue what they were getting themselves into? I've seen alot of posts this last couple of days: "Why does my puppy bite?" "I hate my new puppy!" "My new puppy won't potty outside or on the paper, etc"

So how many of y'all got a puppy for Christmas?

How many bothered to research breed and puppy behavior and needs?

How many are having regrets?

We are crate training our new Havanese and my wife wants to know whether it is a good idea to leave water in the crate or feed and water them in the morning and wait until she gets home from work to water and feed them more? She needs to get it housebroken ASAP since we both work (off for Christmas vacation at present).

I was cleaning in front of my house and i let my golden retriever roam around the front to get some air. Now nothing has happened yet until my brother plays catch with it up and down the street. Then a man comes out and yells out that my dog shouldn't be allowed to run around freely. He says that its making his cat scared. He said ,"Since i have my cat on a leash, you should too." My dog was no where near his house. It never barked either. All it did was play fetch. So he also mentioned that he could call animal control and that it was illegal. So is it?

Does anyone know if skin tags or warts are normal for an eight week old puppy? I just noticed them today and was wondering if I should be concerned. They are located on the underside...his belly.

Hello
Heidi is seven years old has been spaded.
Yesterday she went outside and came back in and layed on the kitchen floor. I looked down and there was a puddle of pee.
I cleaned it up and have been watching her since. She layed on the carpet today and I saw a wet spot. Also a little trickle of
pee on the wood floor in our den. Is there something I can get to give her until I can get her into the vet? I am not sure if its a
urinary infection? Any ideas on this?
Thanks for any help!

Please, no biting or chasing me up a tree! LOL I'm just curious whether it's as opinionated in here as it is in Cats.

In Cats, it's feeding raw v. not feeding raw; the best brands of food; canned v. dry; declaw or not. Perhaps others, I forget.

What are all the arguments about in here?

Ok, this morning my dog had diareah all over the floor and then this afternoon he did it again! He usually asks to go outside and he didnt! I didn't find any scraps of food or wrappers anywhere, so I dont think he got into anything in the house- but maybe outside! What should I do! My mom will probly just say- he don't need to go to the vet! Please help!

I'm looking for a place to work my dog in the winter, preferably indoors. I've been trying to train her with the disc, but this proves to be difficult in the winter when snow and ice make the ground almost impossible to be active on. Are there special shoes I can purchase to help me with this?

There is also the issue that she has an old injury in her back leg that flares with inactivity for long periods of time, and the stress that practicing on the snow gives it.

Any ideas for where I can find a place that will rent a large room to me for an hour or so once a day? I've considered asking some local dog training centers, and possibly a school (school gym), but would be interested in hearing other takes on this situation. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

My 6 month old lab has lots of energy now and i can only imagine what it will be like when she's full grown. I take her to the dog park three times a week, but on days she doesn't go it's harder to tire her out. Eventually i wanna train her to run by my bike. Has anyone done this? I've also heard of attachments you can get for your bike so the dog can't cut in front of you.
