Believe me, I would get a wood or vinyl fence if I could but I can't afford to. Either way, I shouldn't have to spend $$ on a fence when they are the ones with the dangerous dog. I'm shopping for a fence right now & I have to choose between a 4 ft ...

I have a ridgeback, ridgeback mix, and a medium size terrier (I think) mix, and I'm not sure how tall my chain link fence should be. They aren't really jumpy, but have somewhat active prey drives. Would a 4 ft fence be high enough? I think 6 ft is ...

For all of my dogs I picked their names before I ever had them. I just thought of the names I liked & when I finally got my dogs, the names matched them perfectly each time. One of my dogs went thru 7 or 8 names while we had him & were trying to ch...

Could I ask why some breed standards require docking & cropping? What the purpose is? Is it cosmetic? Does it hurt? Is there anything wrong with not doing those things?

My mom & I both tried to push him in from both sides of the car. We used his girlfriend, a terrier mix. Every tasty food you can imagine. 4 pills that the vet gave us to calm him down (he was literally falling asleep where he stood). It got to the ...

We only had to take him to the vet once & that was just for one shot & to get weighed. Nothing bad ever happened to him at the vets or anywhers else we took him. The other times were to show him off to family since ridgebacks are kind of rare & mos...

Do you mean a body halter? I tried everyting but that, but he's very strong and stubborn. I think he's just scared of it because he's the least aggressive dog I've ever known but when I got him up to the car and tried to pick him up, he growled and...

I think I like the bichon. It has the right look. Can anyone tell me what it's like to live with them. I would probably get a female, and keep all that hair trimmed. Do they shed? Are they hard to potty train? Are they yappy? Does anyone know of a...
