Jackie S asked:


My dog was running around with another dog in my apartment building and they got in a little fight. He’s a boston terrier and the other was a golden retriever. The golden bit him a little, my dog didn’t bark or anything and it was over as soon as it started. He’s got a little bald mark on his head, and two marks on his back. Right after the fight my dog was still trying to play and jump around, so I’m pretty sure he’s fine and doesn’t seem hurt at all. He ate and drank water once we came in, and is still trying to play so I’m assuming he’s fine, but I’d like to know how to clean these marks so they hopefully won’t scar or get infected. Thanks for your help!

I will be able to get a dog, if it lives primarily outside. I just need a way of keeping him in the yard. I don’t think I will be able to get a fence. I would rather not get an electric dog fence. If that is my only choice I would consider it, but I don’t like it at all.

Tying the dog with a rope. I would worry that he would get caught up in it and hurt himself. I really don’t know how much awarness they have of them. But, this would probably be the one I go for if we can’t get a fence.

Would there be a way to train the dog to stay in the yard?
Do you have any ideas to share on what I could do?

If you are worried that the dog will be bored, I have a LOT of time to spend. I am very much a dog person. If I could I would let the dog in the house in no time.

Thanks!
I forgot to mention that the dog will be sleeping in the house at night. The dog will also be able to come inside on bad weather days to play inside and to eat. I am outside a lot be with the dog so he won’t be bored or isolated.

-Grc- asked:


I live in my parents’ home, and they do not like dogs in their home. I have always wanted to start dog showing, but am not able to get a show dog myself. What are ways to participate in conformation showing without purchasing a show dog? (How to find someone to allow me handle their dog if they don’t even know me) I can’t get into junior handling since I am over the age limit.

I have two young children and would like to get a dog. We have two cats but I feel like it’s time for a dog. I don’t want a large dog but I don’t want one of those small old lady dogs either (I won’t be putting it in the shopping cart to go to the grocery). I would prefer short hair because I don’t want to be vacuuming up dog hair all the time.
