we live within the city where tourism is high. the dog does not come in contact with any other animals nor should he because we keep him in doors and we supervise him when outside. only contacts he will have are with other dogs and cats on walks possibly.

Ok after doing extensive research and going to my first vet visit for Rocky's first set of shots, I found out this: Puppies should have their first set of shots at 6 weeks. Second set at 9 weeks; 3rd at 12 weeks and last set with Rabies shot at 16 weeks. My vet vaccinates the dog for...

so wait im confused. does nofleasusa.com and kvvet.com import these flea controls or are they the exact same ones that are found in vets offices? these prices are nearly matched; off by 2-3 dollars which i dont mind. my vet charges $72 for Advantage (6 months + 1 free for 21-55lb) and $100...

would u know where to get online Rx meds online? 1800petmeds.com sells them but its equal to some vet/retail chain stores.

just wondering. for those of you who use flea/tick control applications on your dogs; do u buy them online too? i found several good deals and unbeatable prices on ebay. the only thing i noticed is that it comes in a box that is in thailand because it is shipping from thailand. has anyone...

i have tried just this. im worried that im doing something wrong because it keeps happening but i notice that the bites are gettin less pressured but when he does think im playin he will grab harder and pull; resultin in breakin of the skin and me gettin cuts. yea herschel. i have given him...

I had my puppy for nearly 2 weeks and almost 3 this saturday and he still is nibbling and play biting. it seems when he play bites and i take my arm out to say "no" he will be more anxious and rowdy and try to grab onto the hand and bite a bit harder. when i see that, i'll get up only to see him...

my pup was about to go #2 on the rug today so i grabbed him asap but while holding him to get to the pee-wee pad he drops the surprises prematurely. while this was happenin i was holdin him and hurryin to the pee-wee pad sayin NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO then he lets the surprises go and i set...

if the dog breaks the skin is that really bad? my puppy sometimes bites a little too hard and i can feel the teeth sink in and when i try to make him let go it grazes my skin off and i bleed a few seconds after it is out of his mouth

mine does the exact same thing the threadstarter is stating he will bite you and when you ignore him he will run after you to bite your pants. and if u continue walkin and he stops bitin, when you sit down to give him toys to play with, he will look at the toy in ur hand and bite your hand...

im confused. i adopted my puppy at a shelter and he just got his first set of shots and deworming at 6 weeks. now he is 9 weeks and i called several vet places and some told me that he needs a series of 4 sets of shots. 1 at 6 weeks, 2nd at 9 weeks, 3rd at 12 weeks and 4th at 15-16 weeks w/...

good advice everyone. thank you! i see several people have made the same mistake i have made in regards of positive reinforcement training. i didnt know of that either until i read further on about different sides of the training. anyway, i also learned new things as well from this. like 5...

i need a method of training and that one method only. i dont want to switch between methods as i believe it may confuse the pup. which one do you strongly recommend using and see a positive outcome and a guaranteed efficiency

thank you maxy. you and herschel have been very helpful. i dont think he has learned bite inhibition yet. sometimes he just puts his teeth onto my skin but at times when i am sitting and he bites i try to get my finger out without rippin my skin in his mouth but he'll try to jerk my finger and...

thank you maxy and herschel. you guys have relieved me of my paranoia. i didnt want to cause and physical or mental damage to him. am i supposed to just get up and ignore him or do i say something loud and yelp? when he bites and i pull away sometimes he will bite at my body and drag my shirt.

im paranoid because i did it 3-4 times =( thank you though herschel. after noticing he got aggressive the 2nd time of doing it i stopped doing it. i read the link u gave me. that is the exact thing i tried doing. it is right that u cannot teach bite inhibition without lettin him bite. but i...

=( thanks herschel. yeah i saw dog whisperer and he does that. do u think he will be ok though herschel? he still seems to be acting fine and running around healthily. im worried now =( i just wanted him to stop play biting. someone referred that mother dogs do that and then they stop doing what...

i just read on puppy training online and some book that said alpha rolling was ok to do then i did further research on alpha roll where it said that it could be dangerous. i have only done this at max 3-4 times to my westie because he has constantly been hyper and play-biting. when doing this i...

sorry to hear. hope all goes well. but if not like someone suggested, just neuter him

if its really floppy i prefer it not to be long. but overall i prefer perky
