Apollo has always had an issue with Staph/Pyoderma since he was a puppy at around 5 months old. He's a year old now and over the summer, it got really bad and is still bad. Whenever he is put on antibiotics for it, it clears up immediately, but the moment he gets off (literally the day after his...
I know what you're thinking..if he's peeing and pooping in the house and kennel, you're definitely not taking him outside enough to use the bathroom..wrong! Apollo is smart..too smart for his own good actually. So here's what happens. He is the type of dog that NEEDS to be crated at night and...
I have a wedding to go to this upcoming weekend in New York and will be gone for over a week. I have no idea what to do with Apollo. He usually goes to this breeder's house where she'll help me take care of him when I'm traveling but her house is completely full right now and can't take him this...
A couple months back, I posted a post about Apollo's lack of appetite and how worried I was that he was extremely sick or had blockage and had visited the vet around 4 times within two weeks for xrays and blood tests and would come home with nothing and still clueless as to why his enthusiasm...
Hooray! Hoorah! He turns 1 tomorrow and I couldn't be more excited for him. He does however have a bit of the sniffles and a sore throat..took him to the vet yesterday because he woke up with a terrible cough in the morning, I almost thought he had something lodged in his throat but the vet said...
I am currently trying to train Apollo recall at the dog park in an area away from the other dogs. For those of you that don't know of him, he is turning 1 next month so still a puppy and has a lot to learn and work on. I read that the best way to train recall is to train in an enclosed area with...
I'm home for summer break so I picked up the little rascal on my way home and we are now reunited! He was beyond excited to see me and was bouncing off the walls when I got there. Glad he remembered me. It has been exactly a week now since we have been back at home and we have been closer than...
Hello friends! I've been away for quite a while and want to update everyone with what has been going on recently. So basically, the manager at the apartment complex I live at randomly got a stick up her butt a week and a half ago and sent me an email out of the blue saying that she just realized...
Apollo's 10 months now and while his left ear is able to stand long enough for a good picture to be taken in between postings, give it a few more minutes and it will flop completely over his head. I have been told that it's a weak ear. When he was young, there was one time where his ear post on...
**Completely out of curiosity.** I scroll through pictures of dobies on here and 95% of them are off leash when outdoors and get to roam free. At what age did you decide that they were able to handle it? Apollo is 10 months and has never ever been off leash outside before. One time he ran out...
My 10 month pup Apollo is the type of dog to literally eat and swallow anything and can get his mouth on. When he was younger, he would even try to eat rocks. Right now, he is going through a phase of chewing up his blankets in his kennel when he is bored and frustrated and will swallow huge...
Hey everyone! Apollo is 9 months now and I have a huge concern about his left ear. I don't have a good picture of his left ear but I do have a picture of his right (which is his good ear) when his posts are out. I would say his crops are pretty long crops, right?
That is the thing that worries...
Apollo is usually never allowed in my bathroom but today he managed to slip in somehow and got a hold of my razor that I use to shave my legs right away. By the time I caught him in my bathroom, he had already chewed off the razor blades off the handle and was gnawing on it in his mouth...
1) How often/much do you exercise your dog every day, for how long, and what type of exercise? Apollo is 9 months now and is so destructive when not in his kennel. I need to keep my eyes on him every second when he is out of his kennel so I think it's due to lack of exercise. He can never be...
Hey everybody. I feel like since I am a first time owner, I always post on here because I am paranoid about everything but I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. I really do hope this is nothing serious and is me just overreacting but at the same time, I am pretty concerned. So Apollo...
Hi everyone....I'm sure some of you have seen me post on this website before, just not in this specific category/forum. I think it's time I come clean and admit that I have a huge growing problem on my hands. Many have seen pictures of my doberman Apollo as a cute, mischievious puppy. Typical...
Hey there? What are some healthy chews or types of bones to give my pup? I currently mainly give him the packaged meaty bones that you can purchase from Petsmart and Petco and I also always give him 12 inch bully sticks. I like bully sticks because I read that they are all natural with no added...
