There are certian tones that make dogs howl like that.
If he was indeed in pain, or uncomfortable, he would stand up and leave ASAP
I know this is off topic from the point, but NO! Science Diet is evili always thought pedigree was a good dog food but learned otherwise, and was told to get science diet.
Nope, very few fans of Science Diet here! A good brand for a German Shepherd puppy would be a low-protein puppy food, in order to slow their growth rate and give them time to develop their bones properly so they don't end up with hip problems when they're older. You may want to look into brands like Solid Gold, Wellness and Taste of the Wild. Avoid brands like Orijen and Innova EVO for now -- they're great foods, but the protein levels are too high for puppies. If you wish you can switch over to those foods when your dog is an adult.thanks guys for everything!
few more stupid questions/clarifications that i hope no one minds, just trying to make sure i know whats what before i get a dog -
jesirose, i clicked on your link and there are so many 4,5,6 star dog foods that ive never even heard of or seen. i couldve sworn ive seen people swear by science diet on here but i guess im wrong. what would be a good brand for a german shepherd?
Realistically, you may end up doing slightly more than 2 x 45 minutes a day. It really depends on your dog. It will likely be something like 2 x 45 minutes a day plus some fetch at home, coupled with training sessions to work the mental energy off.i fully plan on exercising my dog. my problem is that im afraid of OVER exercising it. i heard that i should be doing 2 walks a day, about 45 mins each time. now, i realize thats probably for an older dog. but what about when hes still a few months old, just a pup? i read that if i over do it ill mess up some bones?
Actually, puppies should eat more times than adults. Puppies should eat three times a day, adults twice a day (some feed once a day). Of course, puppies will eat less food at each meal.its better to actually feed the dog itself when youre eating, right? dont just leave a bowl of food there 24/7? older dogs eat 3 times a day, puppys twice a day? what about water?
No, there's nothing wrong with stuff like fries or pizza once in awhile.theres a specific list of what not to give your dog to eat, right? i know of corn, garlic... but not much after that. is there anything wrong with, now and then, giving the dog a french fry or a little bite of pizza?
