Raise your hand if your dog has ever pestered you, following you from room to room with a bored face? If so, rest assured, you are not alone! Boredom and pent-up energy are the most common reasons dogs develop behavioral problems. Most dogs living in urban settings spend a good chunk of their...

Well Andy is still not fully house trained.He is pretty good,runs to the door when he has to go and only had one poop accident in the house.However he has been marking everything still.Lifting his leg on random furniture. This is my first male foster dog and I am wondering how to break him of...

Anyone see this show? I think thats what it is called...."At The End Of My Leash". What do you guys think? I like it and even tho his methods sometimes seem odd,they work! But I find the show really interesting.

My 6 year old standard poodle Kitty has picked up the bad habbit of eatting/ getting in to the trash. She never did this until she spent a couple days with my mom's dog Pepper who is a resuce and garbage eatting issues. So I'm pretty sure she learned it from him. Its gotten to the point where...

Ok, I am really mad. Georgia is such a brat. Yes, I am calling my dog a brat. She knows exactly what I want but only does it when she feels like it. I'm thinking about giving up 4-H, (I know you guys are going to say 'dont give up' but I sure think I'm going to..)even, because of her...

Ok so I told you all how we just adopted a 5yr old Pitbull mix Thursday and everythings been great, except I was afraid of her with the cats. Today we gave her more freedom and things went well as far as the cats went. Tonight my husband and I took her for a walk then we came in and she was...

I need some ideas for a bin cage. I want to get a clear plastic bin, as big as I can find, for my new hamster. Should I just drill a bunch of holes in the lid, or should I cut a big hole in the lid and put some sort of screen there? What's the best way to do it? I want it to work well, but it...

We picked up our first foster dog yesterday. He is an 8 month old golden retriever. My first dog had to be one of my favorite breeds. When we were looking for a dog last year, and ended up adopting Reggie we had seriously considered a golden. Anyway, the rescue had him named Havoc but said...

First off my problem is with our Saint Bernard Missy. I really didn't think there were any real big behavior problems with any of our dogs until recently. I'm starting to get really frustrated and it is making it hard for me to work with her right now. The thing that I want to address first is...

Ok, like I have said in another thread we adopted a 3 month old Pomeranian. This is my first puppy. We have another dog but we adopted him when he was 4 years old. Now my hubby has raised and trained puppies but its been 20 years. Our older dog is my first dog in my life. He is such an awesome...

I'm not sure if your all familiar with my puppy Petey- But I need to vent right now, before I cry at work. Petey is about 4months or so, and he is just to much lately. I posted about our trainer visit (no one responded):( The trainer recommended for such a high energy dog, keep him in an...

What do you do for a living? What do you do on a rainy day off? What do you do when someone near you sneezes?

How well does doggy obedience school work for adult dogs versus puppies? We adopted a lab mix (we think lab/pitbull) a few months ago, and he acts like he's about as smart as a brick. I love him dearly, but the only thing he has learned is his name. Every once in awhile, he will sit, but it's...

My mother has the litter mate to my Piggy at her house, Mask. Now, my mother is very much disabled, and is not able to go outside to walk the dog. My teen brother, obviously, does not want to bother walking her because she is rough on a leash, so she is left outside. I took her on a walk...
