    New puppy acts wierd with a collar.

    Our new Beagle puppy is about 13 or 14 weeks old now, and we wanted to put a collar on her. Though, when we do, she acts very bizzare. Normally, she is on the go, running and playing--being a puppy. When we put the colar on her though, it is as if she is completely immobilized. She will just lay...

    Feeding puppy once a day okay?

    Well, we feed her in the moring while our older dog is outside so he can't see her. I don't want to get in the habit of feeding them sepearte at night, because she is just going to have to learn to not mess with his food. We feed her the Proplan puppy fromula twice a day, a quarter cup each...

    Feeding puppy once a day okay?

    We were feeding our puppy, now 11 weeks old, and a beagle, once a day. Now, at my grandmother's insistence, we feed her twice a day so she doesn't get as hungry. Well, we feed her twice a day now, and it just makes things more complicated. She still gets excited for food, if not more than ever...

    Sock an okay toy for a puppy?

    Well, like I said, she is a beagle pup, so I think swallowing a sock whole is a physical impossibilty to her. And she is never unsupervised when out of her cage.

    Older dog won't accept new puppy.

    He would growl when she walked by and sometimes snap when she pounced at him, but he still allowed her to take toys away from him, and even usurped his favorite laying spot. I was glad that he was showing dominance with the toy, rather than allowing her to do what she wanted, which was take the...

    Older dog won't accept new puppy.

    Great News! Today they actually played a little bit, taking turnes on a toy, Dodger finally taking some initiative and growling when she came to take it from him. I was glad to see him lay down the law. But they seemed to be having fun. I think they will become grat companions. And on the...

    Sock an okay toy for a puppy?

    Thanks for the advice. Seeing as how it is just a Beagle pup, I'm not to worried about her swallowing it whole. I'm sorry to hear about the death of your brother's puppy. There is nothing sadder. . .

    Sock an okay toy for a puppy?

    We just got a new puppy, and we got her four toys to play with. She likes all of them, but what she just LOVES to play with and chew is a sock with a knot in it. We had one laying around because our dachshund loves to play tug-of-war, and the puppy also likes to play that, but she also loves to...

    Older dog won't accept new puppy.

    Well, the sixteen year old (named Cody) is no longer with us. We had to put him down. He was a good dog, but he was confused all the time. And when we brought home Dodger, when Cody was eight, Cody just ignored him for a couple weeks, but never lashed out. He was such a good dog, we were...

    No, I wouldn't. That is a good way of putting it.

    Older dog won't accept new puppy.

    Thanks for the advice. Right now I am keeping a close eye on them. He only snaos at her when she puches him. Like this morning, he was laying on one of the doggy beds, and she sort of pounced at him in a playful manner, and he lunged at her. I said in a frim tone to him, "No, bad dog." Other...

    Older dog won't accept new puppy.

    So, we just got a new puppy, a 9 week old Beagle girl (Willow). Our other dog is an 8 year old Dauchshund (Dodger). We just put down our sixteen year old Bishon a week ago, and got the new puppy Tuseday. We realize this a lot of change for our Dauchshund. The puppy is doing good. A very well...
