    Question about contracts

    I would never agree to that condition Unless the dog is to be competed and proven on bench or in field, then they are simply trying the newest scam in BYB land: Let everyone else do all the hard work and incur all of the expense and whenever we want we can have a litter of moneymakers...

    So, I need some brainstorming... Bulldog allergies.

    have him screened for autoimmune disease You will likely need to have this done at university level. When I see over the top allergens like you describe, especially considering his breed in which AID is common, it is the first thing Ithink of. Your dog may not show classic symptoms. However AID...

    Shar pei / boxer mix is itchy ALL THE TIME

    Both boxers and shar pei are highly over-represented In cases of autoimmune disorders and disease which often manifests as allergy like symptoms. I personally would have my dog screened for AID and have an amino acid profile done. This will not be something your every day vet could likely do...

    At my wits end with 12 yr old AHT

    missed a couple answers She must be crated when we have visitors because she will attack them. She has gone as far as lying in wait for the right moment to attack with intent. Having her loose and confined to a room or other area means there will be damage to things or to her even when...

    At my wits end with 12 yr old AHT

    answers to questions I have had a full medical done through my own vet and again at MSU. 3 different behaviourists have fired us due to dog not progressing and flat out being dangerous. She has to be confined in a crate since she will jump or climb every gate Ihave tried. Confining behind a...

    At my wits end with 12 yr old AHT

    Short version: acquired dog from friend of a friend. Was supposed to simply keep her safe for a week as they moved. They never came back for her and have disappeared off the face of the earth. It has been 18 months. This dog is the worst animal Ihave ever had the pleasure of owning. 12 year old...

    Stacking wire crates?

    I personally would not do it . Wire crates are not designed to hold weight. If you have no other option, then design the top so that it overhangs and has legs. The corners are weak points as far as structural integrity goes and as wire crates are collapsible you will need the added strength to...

    I have always said that noisiness doesn't bother me

    The good ones all do, lol My current pack of 4 dachshunds will make your brain curdle when in full cry. My brother runs B&T coonies and you can hear them bay on a hot track for over 5 miles!

    Immune mediatwd hemolytic anemia

    Immune mediated hemolytic anemia In October of 2006, my normally fun loving Dingy Doo was acting a little strange. I thought that perhaps we had overdone the exercise the day before, but noted that if she still seemed off in the morning I would take her in right away. Well, at 5 am when I got...

    No such thing as a doberman

    Ha ha What about the black and tan Dachshund? Did they breed those from Rotts, too? If ignorance was bliss, then the world would be nirvana.

    This works well for me!

    I usually produce one litter every 2-3 years. After a bad experience with a client, I came up with a system that worked extremely well for me, and the only complaints I had were from people who did not check out well enough to pass muster. When negotiating a contract for a pup, I always...

    Dog still goes in the house after almost 2 years

    The best way to keep a dog from pooping in the crate is to get a crate that is too short for them to squat in. Use it only as long as necessary to teach them bowel control. A short crate also keeps most dogs from barking or screaming all day, as many will not raise a ruckus if they can not...

    Need Advice - On the verge of breaking down

    Some bored dogs really love to watch television. They even make videos for dogs with kitties and birdies and all sorts of visually stimulating things. On dvd you can set them to run continuous. Even just soap operas, as they can see the people and hear them talking. I have had dogs that get...

    grrr i am so mad! some people!!!

    People like that should spend a few weeks in a Mexican prison. Food that bloats your stomach and makes you cry in agony. Water so filthy and sporadically given that it makes you vomit. Not enough room to stand, lie down or otherwise make yourself comfortable. Parasites having a feast of your...
