Hi guys! Hopefully you can help me with this problem.. I have a little Maltese mix called Moose that's about 6 years old that we adopted at the start of the year. He hadn't been well socialized and could be growly and snappy with other dogs, but since owning him he's settled down a lot and gets...

Ok forum folks, I would greatly appreciate some solid, no-holds barred opinions! I have always had the belief that puppy is a safer way to start to ensure good foundations regarding training and temperament for my family. However I am constantly hearing otherwise. Barring political correctness...

For all of those who got a puppy and they are now adults. Sit back, relax and think about all the headaches. The broken shoes, the potty training, the bites cuz they didn't know how strong they were. The ENDLESS amount of energy. The "wanting to pull my hair out" moments of frustration... That...

Our little Ojo (oh-joe) is a 5-year-old, small mixed-breed dog we adopted while living in South Korea. His heritage is unverified, but believed to be a jindo/westie mix. He lived in wonderful foster homes for two years before he came to us. He was an absolute gem with a few quirks, including...

I have a 5 year old coonhound that I adopted in December. He was immensely pampered in his old home, and I have been able to get a lot of basic obedience training instilled since. But unless I have food in my hand, he typically ignores me when I command him to come. It's particulary concerning...

I just adopted an adult stray dog. Yes, I know, that's a pretty bad statement to put in in "First Time Dog Owner" forum, but well... The dog has very few problems at the moment. He doesn't know most basic commands, like sit or come. He pulls a leash, but only a bit. But on the other side, it...

is it possible that i gave a cracker (bone shaped) to my puppy but it says that, it's for adult.. a pet shop cashier told me it is ok to feed my puppy with that.

I know this is long but please read it and help me! Ok, so my shihtzu/maltese dog, Oreo, is 2 years old. He still pees in the house, either in the kitchen or in the basement. It's easy to clean up in the kitchen because of the tiles, but in the basement there is carpet, and it's smells like...

Just out of curiosity: My Caucasian ovcharka puppy is almost 5 months old (next week he will) and he weighs 35 pounds. And i hear about that theory which states that "multiplying a puppy's 4 month old weight by 2 will give you his estimated adult weight..." But if i follow that theory, my puppy...
