I was the person you quoted in the second paragraph and I stand by it and the previous paragraph as well. Your dog doesn’t need friends, your dog needs you. You want your dog to be neutral to other people and animals. When you allow your dog to interact freely with other dogs and people you’re...
I’d suggest getting off a puppy food and move to an all life stages food. I recommend “natures logic”. It’s a high quality food and all natural ingredients. You can also use dog food advisor to look as well for a good 4-5 star rated food.
all dogs are different and not all proteins settle well.
Raw bones are fine for dogs, however non load bearing. Such as poultry wings, feet or necks. Pork ribs and such. Ribeye bones are beef ribs, it should be fine.
personally I don’t feed rib bones because there a little tougher to digest atleast for my boy. I would just take that bone out if...
Bathe isn’t a problem, just make sure you don’t get his posts wet.
as far as socialization, bring him out and about. Go places with him, however don’t let people pet him or interact with him, same thing with strangers dogs. Socializing isn’t having him interact with everyone you come in...
Update: she leaves for her board and train this Tuesday. So I’ve determined she isn’t dog or people aggressive. However she’s a bit of a nervous one, we took her to the tennis courts with our trainer to see how she’d react. Everything’s new to her, not scared of anything just everything’s new...
Sounds like a shitty owner. I’d never rehome my family for any reason. Hell, I moved specifically to give my guy a bigger home. However this persons reason is common. When I was at the shelter picking up Trixie, a woman was trying to pick her lost dog up. There was a fee associated with picking...
I take Rex typically everywhere I go, included malls and crowded places. When people are walking towards us, it’s like Moses spreading the nile. People go out of there way dramatically. I find it quite funny to be honest.
Not too old, Rex starts training next month for service work and he’s over 2 years old! He’s going to the same training facility as Trixie at the same time. We were originally going to do it at a non profit for disabled veterans, however I quickly withdrew my application from them as I used them...
I personally feed a raw diet to my dogs. It’s fantastic and has many wonderful benefits. However if you’re not able to feed raw, I’d recommend natures logic or victor. They make good products and I occasionally feed natures logic during holidays when I don’t have the ability to feed raw.
update: back from the groomers. She did well minus expelling her anal glands in the holding kennel then pooping in the kennel after the bath lol. However she’s fully clean now and her coats shining. She’s gained about 3-4 pounds since I got her 11 days ago.
rex gets the next 3-4 hours to himself while she’s at the groomer, so we’re going to the park to train.
“the face you make when you think the hoomans dumped the new dog and you’re back to the only dog”
