We're thinking about adopting a dog soon because we haven't actually owned a dog in a little while, just fostering. Our last foster was a senior dog (very old) who had to get put down because of the pain he was in. We want to look into spaniels, we're more than likely adopting one from a...

Need help keeping our dog calm when our new baby cries. We just had our first baby and we already have a 5 yr. old, 40lb Lab/Beagle mix. When the baby cries, the dog gets stressed out and cries too. If we're holding the baby while she's crying the dog tries jump on our lap or put her front...

I have two cats, and one toy dog. I recently got a Rottie who I was told by his last owners that he was okay with small animals, but easily corrected. He constantly chases after my cats, barks, and whines at them, and then constantly barks at my roommate's daughter's toy dog. He's a sweet dog...

I've always had a weird dream to one day start my own cat and dog cemetery business. Is that far-fetched? Well, my main reasoning out there is this: I've heard or have seen after a loving family pet dies, it's often(not always), tossed in a garbage bag and thrown out like yesterday's news-just...

Ever since I've left for college, I've missed my mut Maggie very much. I miss my mut so much, that I miss her more than my family. Is this normal???

My husband and I are looking to get a dog, and I have been using petfinder.com to try to find some rescue dogs who would be a good fit. I have been diligently researching different breeds and could use some input! Just a little about ownership history-- I've had a rott/malamute cross and a...

Hi everyone, I have just registered in this forum as it looked to me from the questions and answers here that I could find support and answers to my own questions. We have 4 children of different ages including a baby, run hobby farm in Canada, ON, with goats and chickens, and just recently got...

We live in the country and have three children, ages 14, 11, and 7. We need a sturdy dog that won't break, and is good with being hauled around by the youngest. It needs to have low exercise needs, but if it comes down to it, we have a large yard. It also needs to get along with our two cats...
