I have a 5.5 month old samoyed puppy. She is fairly well trained, although a bit stubborn, and plays very well with other dogs. She also loves all people. Next week we are going to a friend’s house for spring break (only staying one night) and they have two cats. One is a neutered male [...]

My family is wanting to get a large dog, we don’t care for small dogs that bark too much. But we are a little confused when it comes to the breed of dog we want because we hear about dogs that have bad temperments and are not good with children. We have three children ages [...]

I have a toy poodle/cocker spaniel mix(4 months) I have been walking her with a regular buckle collar, but I read everywhere that small dogs should be walked on harnesses because their tracheas can easily collapse. What should I walk her with?

I’m going to be upfront. I disagree with the dog trainer on this one. She feels a choke collar is a must for training. I don’t care for them & I am not comfortable using them unless I am indoors where I know if my dog got loose, he is contained. I prefer a harness [...]

I’ve always found that it’s easier to control a dog by it’s head, or closer to it, (hence why they used rings in bulls noses, to control them). I also was under the impression that it can cause back problems for some dogs. Am I wrong in thinking this? I just see a lot of [...]

We have a crazy 15 pound Jack Russel/Beagle mix. What is the best large breed that will get along with him AND be a guard dog that does not nip or bite children or small dogs? Well, to tell you how ‘crazy’ he can be… He visits my moms house who has a Cairn terrier, [...]

In the midwest, for one week, three small dogs, at the owners home, approx 15 mins from town but they are requesting I stay at the house. The price they offered astounded me, but I’ve never really done this sort of thing for money before. It’s always just been for friends. Thanks.

The woman i live with has two small dogs that always dig in the trash can. I know a lot of dogs do this, but it is disgusting and annoying; it is a fairly large trash can and we tell them to stay out of it every day. They not only spread the trash all [...]

I have been looking at pets online, mostly dogs and some prices have ranged to ,500! And i know thats way to expensive for a house dog. I’ve also seen prices around 0-0 for nice puppies. How much would you invest on one dog? Small dogs. None over 15 inches tall.

This puppy belongs to our friends who had to leave for Thanksgiving weekend. He’s only 10 months old and very attached to them. I know that small dogs often shake but I don’t think he is one of them. Do you think he’s cold or do you think he’s scared/tense? If the latter is true, [...]

Sombody told me once that small dogs shouldn’t wear standad collars because it can break their tracheas. Is this true? They said that small dogs need harnesses.

I’m now buying supplies for my puppy that I’ll be getting in August. (she was born Father’s Day) Seeing as both of her breeds (pomeranian and chihuahua) are prone to collapsed trachea I wanted to be proactive and these were the only harnesses made specifically to protect a small dog’s delicate windpipe. I am considering [...]
