About 5 years ago we rescued a Rottie/Shepherd mix who was about 3 years old at the time. He was found on the road after having been hit by a car. We had 3 other dogs and all was well for a while. Once…
We have a full bred labrador female, she is AKC an all. My husband wants to breed her when she is old enough. She is only 7 months old now and I am trying to convince him that this is a bad decission…

I personally don't think it sounds like a good idea, breeding is a huge responsibility (if you are going to do it responsibly). If its not something you both are fully committed to then regardless of…
I got my boston neutered on monday, and he is hard to contain now he wants to jump and run, we are doing our best but i was curious when was an okay time for him to be doing this. Our wet has told us…

Yeah. The same happened with us. We have VPI and it seems fine, but only get a few bucks back. Feel rather in the dark about insurance. Would love to here other peoples experiences.

I have just moved in with my boyfriend who has a yr and 1/2 old Akita. Before I moved in me and the Akita were very close and he loved me very much. When I moved in I bought my 2 pound 12 week old pomerianen…

The Akita is marking his owner because you have moved in. If he has not been neutered he needs to be. When the dog moves in between you and your boyfriend your boyfriend needs to make him go lay back…
I can't believe how much I've read about people buying puppies. Why? Is it really that important to have a purebred? Half the time you don't even get a clean breed. How many little guys have to be euthanized…

Some people like purebred puppies and I happen to be one of them. I don't know what you mean by clean puppies. I think it depends on where you get a puppy. I would never buy from a puppy mill, pet store…
