    Can dogs eat jalapenos?

    My family got a pizza and it gives 2 jalapenos on the side. We didn't eat them, just left them in the box and threw the box away. But I guess one of them fell out and Rocket attempted to eat it, but instead of just eating and swallowing, he chewed it, spit it out, and barked at it for a...

    So... why do dogs pee on things?

    I guess this goes as a question and a little story that made me wonder why. My backyard used to have a really big tree, until our neighbors asked us to cut it down, which we did. My dad decided to keep the trunk, and use it as a table in our garage (he makes things with wood, so he used it...

    How to make dogs stop barking at certain things?

    Well ever since Rocket was a pup, he's had this thing where he'd bark at the Goodyear blimp. I have no idea why. It usually comes by quite often (I think it lands and liftoffs somewhere around my area) so it becomes quite troublesome when he barks at a blimp. When we got our other dog, Bagel...

    Having a dog eat slower?

    My dog Rocket threw up twice, once 2 days ago and again today. The first time he threw up, he threw up 2 big pieces of a pig ear (my dad gave him and our other dogs them as treats). Today he threw up again, but it wasn't as bad (it was his food) so I'm assuming he's eating too fast. He seems...

    Clipping an overgrown nail

    Now, I know this is hard to believe but apparently my dog Rocket has had a nail on his foot that, well, I never noticed until a few days ago. It's not directly on his paw (more towards his leg) and it was covered by some fur. He has these on both hind legs but one seems to eb cut fine (which I...

    Ahhhh Bagel Is Back!!!

    After the very very expensive numerious trips to the vet, she is back and as hyper as ever. She had to have a CSF tap as well as a couple of blood tests to determine the problem, which they narrowed down to meningitis. I have to keep her on lots of medication and the such, but she is back to...

    Meningitis in dogs.

    Anyone have any experience with this? What sorts of measures will I have to take to keep my dog well? Can it come back?

    Pet Insurance and my very sick dog.

    Hi, my dog Bagel has been going to the vet (3rd visit within the last week) because she has been really sick. The vets really don't know what's wrong with her, and since we had to take her to 2 different vets (one is our normal vet, the other an emergency vet since our normal hosipital was...

    Bagel's been acting a bit sick

    Bagel's been acting weird lately. She's been snapping at Rocket a lot (like whenever he comes near her, she'll growl, and if he gets too close, she'll snap at him, almost biting him). She usually gets defensive whenever she has a treat around or something, but she'll just growl at him for...

    Rocket stomach making lots of noises

    Well, I came home yesterday night to see vomit on the floor. Since I have 2 dogs, I couldn't tell which one did it, because both were asleep at the time I came home. But when I came home tonight, there was no vomit, but Rocket's stomach has been making lots and lots of noises. I'm assuming...

    Walking 2 dogs

    Hey, I've been having trouble walking my 2 dogs. Basically they walk okay seperately (but when one is away, the other is doing a non stop whine fest), but together it's too hard. They both pull and tug and drag me along for the ride. I stop and wait until they stop tugging, but once I give a...

    Old dog jealous of new dog!

    My new dog, Bagel, is very calm and mellow, and Rocket, our old dog, is a very hyper dog. They're both about 1 year old, and it seems like he always wants to play, and she wants to sleep and eat (but she will play with Rocket often). Yet anytime anyone pets her, he automatically runs over to...

    My dog is sneezing and making weird noises

    Hello, I recently gotten a new dog (Bagel, 1 year old welsh corgi mixed) and she has been sneezing quite often. We've had her for about 1 week, and she seemed fine until about 2 days ago. She'll sneeze often, and when she sleeps she snores. I noticed also that whatever she is sleeping on gets...

    Are my dogs fighting or playing?

    My two dogs (Bagel, female welsh corgi mix and Rocket, a shepard mix) have this habit of growling at each other for a long time and wrestling. They show their teeth and bite each other, but not any deep bites or anything (more like nipping). I don't know whether they are play wrestling or are...

    My old dog won't stop barking at the new dog!

    My 1 year old Shepard mix won't stop barking at our new dog, a year old Welsh Corgi mix. I think this may be due to the fact that our Shepard wasn't socialized very much when he was younger, and anywhere she goes, he'll follow. I don't know which dog to correct, or what I should be doing. Any...

    Two questions...

    Just now, my dog is acting really strange. Anytime he is awake, he usually is very active (ie wanting to play, running around, etc.) but right now he's sitting outside, right in front of the door. I don't know what I did, but I think I might have scared him while he was sleeping. A bug landed...

    How to give a pup proper exercise when raining?

    Recently it's been raining and my 9 month old dog (Shepard mix, medium size, about 60 pounds) doesn't go out much (only to use the restroom) because of it. I would want to take him for a walk, but I'm afraid that I might get him sick. We don't have much room for him to roam around, and he...

    Biting me while playing... suggestions?

    Hello all. I have a shepard mix puppy, named Rocket,who is about 7-8 months old. He's quite friendly, but hasn't interacted with other dogs much. Once, we had a Shiba Inu over for a couple of days and they weren't the best of friends. Well, back on the topic, anytime we start to play...
