I know a lot of small dogs can bark a lot which I would like to avoid, but a large dog is impractical for my one bedroom flat. This will be my first dog on my own as well. Any information would be appreciated.

Why do you think coloring dogs is cruel?
Filed Under Dogs | 8 Comments
After a seeing responses to a couple of other questions about coloring dogs, I just have to ask why do people think this is cruel? I’m thinking you don’t understand the process. There are NO toxic chemicals being used. It’s no more cruel than giving a dog a bath. What part of it do you find cruel? After watching and participating in several creative grooming competitions, and dying clients’ dogs, I have yet to see one dog die or even suffer for it.
If you don’t like the look of it, that’s one thing, but that does not justify crying animal cruelty.
The dyes we use such as Manic Panic are NOT like the ones most people put in there hair. No amonia, no peroxide. No harmful chemicals. No oder. I suspect it’s not a case of not understanding the process, but not understanding the products as well.
Once again, of the hundreds of dogs I’ve seen dyed, not one has a skin problem, including my own.

Both of my dogs tend to vomit, vets say there is nothing wrong with them, but I have heard changing their dog food to one for sensitive stomachs may help. Do you have any advice?
Neither of my dogs eat fast or too much. Both are very healthy weight wise. Female Husky 50 pounds and Male Pekingese is 14 pounds.
They were eating a holistic dog food but they stopped around the time of the pet food recall. They just wouldn’t eat it anymore. So we switched them to Iams.

Our dog is 3 and 1/2 and will not stop humping dogs at the park. I think he does it as a dominance thing to encourage other dogs to play with him, but its very annoying and the other owners are often not amused.
Suggestions, ideas?
Thanks.
Yes, he is neutered. He got neutered at approximately 10 months because he was a rescue.

Can dogs used to find narcotics become addicted to the drugs they’re trained to find?

The police use dogs to find illegal drugs. I wonder if the dogs can become addicted. Like that episode of Family Guy where Brian worked for the police and became addicted to cocaine.

Is there a cable dog run suitable for large dogs?
Filed Under Dogs | 7 Comments
I have one for my medium dog and it works great, is there a larger, stronger run suitable for large, strong dogs? Please provide links or actual products, I have already been to several stores. I do not want a tie-out, he will just dig it up, I would like something that I can anchor into trees or something that he can’t break lose from. We have open property so I have a kennel for him but he needs to get some more exercise during the day while I am at work. Thanks!
