    What would you have done?

    That's horrible. I don't understand how they could be okay with that. Why wouldn't they want to have a loving, loyal dog for their daughter? They're letting her abuse the one thing that could really show her unconditional love.

    What would you have done?

    Thats the thing! They think its okay for their kid to do that. I love kids. I understand sometimes they're a little too rough sometimes. I don't blame the kid. I blame the adults because think its okay to accept that treatment towards the dog instead of teaching the kid how to act. I feel like...

    What would you have done?

    The other day, I was at a friend's house and they had his boxer inside the house and his four year old nephew was jumping on the dog's back and playing a too rough with it. I know some dogs don't mind it and enjoy the physical challenges but this dog was seriously getting annoyed. He was...

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    I've been thinking about it, and I don't want to risk the dog owner not fixing her dog afterwards. I've been such an advocate of proper dog breeding and rescuing, I'd feel hyporcitical if I buy this just because it is adorable (and it really is beautiful). So I think I'll start looking in the...

    Question about Yorkies?

    I've seen some of them with long hair and some of them with shorter hair? Excuse my ignorance, but are there different types or do some dog ownders simply choose to cut their hair shorter? If so, how often do you have to cut their hair? Thanks.

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    Yes. She's six weeks Monday so there's still quite a while before she's ready to be adopted. She's sent me pics of the parents, but yes, I agree the best think to do is go, meet them all, think about it, and then make the decision.

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    The puppy will have its first shots and deworming. She speaks wonders of the parents, but I'll still need to confirm that in person. Thanks for your input!

    She's asking for 120, but I'll ask more about the cares the mother had.

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    Well she's really beautiful, and I really do like her. I've been looking at petfinder and no other dog has really made as big of an impact... I still have about three weeks till she's ready for adoption though so I have time to think about it. Thanks for the suggestions!

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    Oh thanks for clearing that up. I thought hybrid was a cross of breeds. What do you think is a reasonable price? I don't mind paying a rehoming fee for the shots they've gotten but I don't want to inspire them to do it again.. Thanks for the other suggestions. I'll be sure to ask. (:

    Loose Dog--Was it Right to say Something?

    Hm, honestly, I think it was okay to confront him about it but maybe you should've done in a friendlier manner so he didn't feel defensive about it. And if he still refused to keep his dog on a leash, and it continued to be a problem, report it without further warning. That would you wouldn't...

    Questions to ask before buying a puppy.

    I'm going to be adopting a puppy soon, and since she's a hybrid dog (yorkie crossed with dashchund,) I'm having trouble finding information about the breed. Anyways, I'm planning on sending the dogs owner (I hestiate to call her breeder because it was more of a case of two house pets having a...

    Thanks. I love goldies. My next door neighbor had one for over eleven years. She was the most educated dog ever. My neighbor only had to look at her, and she knew what she was suppose to do whether it was to go back home or to wait patiently by her side. Anyways, sorrry for the little rant. I...

    Thanks (: I'm still trying to figure out how to do that but as soon as I do, you'll have tons of pictures. He doesn't mind sitting for the camera as long as he gets a treat afterwards.

    Your Dogs Name: Why You Chose The Dog Name You Did

    When we adopted my german shepherd, my brother named him "Bruce" after the batman character but as soon as my mom saw him, she called him "Capitan" (meaning captain in spanish) after a german shepherd she had had and adored when she was younger. She refused to call him anything else so we all...
