    If you had to pick strictly on looks

    Just on looks? A "white" blue eyed siberian Husky! This is of course as someone else said, providing the looks groom themselves too. If not...then I would have to say a blue-eyed Dalmatian.

    Dalmatian Training Glitches

    Jinx...I am 99% sure is going to FLUNK CGC. For one exercise: Supervised separation ie, he whines. Which doesnt make sense to me because he crates perfectly whether I am home or not he is quiet. And the practice tests I am out of sight and hearing range which is usually what sets them off...

    The weirdest misidentification?

    Jester, my long-hair double dapple dachshund, gets this all the time: I have one neighbor who swears he is a sheltie [what part of five inches tall dog doesnt she understand LOL] and the plumber the other day was just sure he is a Brittany spaniel, and he confessed to having a dachshund...

    Teeny's best friend is looking for a home :*(

    What state are you in? Can I crosspost this? Is he neutered? UTD on shots?

    Growling

    Can you teach Lucky, Twist's name--sit them both down nearby with you in the middle, say, "Lucky, where's Twist?" And lure Lucky into looking toward Twist and then treat them both, Lucky first? If looking at Twist and not growling earns a treat ... just my thoughts.

    What breed ages best?

    I have had a 19 year old dachshund and a 22+ year old dalmatian; but both were probably exceptions to the average. I have heard that Schipperke [sp?] have great longevity and stay young-ish for many years.

    puppy shots and flea control

    Hi, the puppy vaccination plan I am using is @ 6 weeks, 2nd at 9 weeks, 3rd at 12 weeks and 4th at 15 weeks w/ rabies. I would NOT walk your puppy anywhere there have been other dogs until after 13 weeks and 3 shots minimum; I use a mild flea shampoo and Frontline on my puppy. Hope this helps.

    I'm really not sure what to think of this comment

    A friends [VERY large 120 pound, same weight as me] dog who I was babysitting, was on a flexi when I took her out to potty one morning, she bolted to chase a critter and hit the end of the 25' flexi [which did not break] and because it all happened so fast, I held onto the leash handle, the dog...

    Decided to rehome bruno

    Things happen. People make mistakes. Having said that...a live animal is involved here. If you accept your commitment to this dog then do whatever it takes to make things work. You say you dont like kids, but you already have one: Your dog. You may have to put up with your sisters baby so...

    Help with progressing to home alone

    There are probably better people to advise on these questions but I will take a try at it. If he rings the bell just to "page' you and doesnt need to potty, I would let him out anyway, but then call him right back in. he needs to know you will let him out when he signals but also that this is...

    answer this for me ...........

    Oh my, you really hit a sore spot with me...I have a service dog in training [Jinx] and he gets distracted easily enough without unmannerly kids hovering all over him. I do not, thankfully, have to worry at all about my dog; I know he wont climb up or knock them down, I know he wont bite, BUT...

    Bell and potty question

    You can get the type of bell like that sits on a teacher's desk that they can tap wih their paw to ding it, and set it by the door. I got mine at an office supply place.
