Ha ha! I remember that show Dogs With Jobs...it used to show on the Milwaukee PBS station on Saturday mornings, and it was the show that "got me through" the long waiting period for my first dog,...

Hi! I have a Maltese, Mac, who is the absolute love of my life. If you are thinking of getting a Maltese, I certainly recommend the breed!! They are intelligent, loving, protective.....I could...

Oh my gosh, Packet, I would like to pack you up and ship you to my house!! I'm sure you would enjoy playing with my two furbabies!! You are such a cutie pie!!

Hmmmm...well, I have to say I'm still skeptical about the whole "fear period" thing...the classification of it more than its existence, really. After all, I think it is instinctual for dogs and...

I have read tons of dog books and magazines religiously for years now, and I have never heard of a "fear period"....I also have never experienced this with either of my dogs. Am I missing out on...

Oh my gosh, that is my greatest fear...my babies being trapped in a house fire!! My deepest condolences to the people in South Dakota!! My suggestions are pretty much the same as everyone else's,...

I've had posts get erased too (on other forums), and I can't figure it out either....it's not like I've ever said anything objectionable. :P

Good luck!!

Lots of dogs, both male and female, neutered and not, will hump other dogs, people, objects, etc. My understanding is that is is a form of excited play, as well as a show of dominance. So in other...

All dogs/puppies are different when it comes to potty training. Like the Shih Tzu puppy you described, my Maltese pup Mac just never seemed to take to indoor potty training very well (i.e., paper...

What happened?? :( Did she get sold, or stolen, or worse??

If you are afraid of dogs, PetsMart probably is not the right place for you to shop. The type of people who take their dogs to this store are, from my experience, real "dog people" who take into...

Wow, we have a PetsMart nearby, but I didn't hear about Yappy Hour!! :( Oh well, I have to work today anyway....but tomorrow, I am taking Mac and his new baby sis Mei to the Happy Howloween...

I posted to this thread a few days ago, but it seems my post is gone. Is there some reason it may have been removed???

It sounds to me more like your dog trainer maybe has an issue herself with pit-type dogs. How can anyone pass the judgement that Buddha is a "bad dog" and "that's just the way he is" when he is so...

Karen is right--ANY breed of dog, or ANY creature for that matter, can have an albino variant. Albinism is caused by the total lack of skin pigmentation, a rare trait that can manifest itself in...

Bitsy, you have warmed my heart. You remind me so much of my dog Midget who died last year. She was also a Shih Tzu-Poodle mix, and although she was black in color, seeing your sweet face makes me...

Here is another photo I took yesterday...this one is of Mac, posing in a Pumpkin Patch. I think this one turned out really nice, since the sunlight yesterday was great for taking pictures outdoors. ...

Just wanted to share with everyone here a photo of my new Shih Tzu puppy, Mei, who is coming home to live with us on October 19th (this Saturday)!! Okay, I'm a little biased, but isn't she...

Here are the answers, to the best of my knowledge (and opinion):


1. The main purpose of spaying/neutering is, of course, to prevent unwanted litters. HOWEVER, to me the more important issue is...
