hehe! By feisty, Do you mean that he barks at the other dog a bit if it rushes him? I love jack russels for this. They are superb at telling another dog to get out of their space, its hard to tell without seeing him in action, but if he isn't going around causing trouble himself, and merely...
ok i just re-read your post, doing number 2's on astro turf would not be easy to clean. My dog did the same when i moved to a house with a yard, he only likes to go on soil. I just had to take him out for a little walk instead, in the end i was glad beacause it meant the yard/patio stayed clean...
hey guys i knid of think you are both right. Dogs will respond to your body language, and they will act funny if they are in a situation in which they got told off before.....
What a dog isn't capable of is withholding going to the loo if it needs to. It cannot forsee that by responding to an...
helooooo, welcome!
photos photos photos!!!
We demand photo's round here!
Did you get him from a breed specific rescue centre, or from a more general one. I'm trying to convince my friend to get a rescue dog at the moment, she is determined to get a puppy. I've told her there are lots of...
ok, sorry if i sounded mean! She will be feeling bad, as dogs do understand about peeing inside once they a capable of holding it, she will have done it cos she really needed to, maybe the rug smelt the most like outside or something. Good luck with her at the vets, lovely photo's, i also own a...
aaaaaw bless you! Don't feel like poo! You're about to be a granny, and you have in no way been irresponsible! What will be, will be, you can only do your best!
I take it you're having scans done to check out possibilities of size number or potential problems, this is all you can do to prepare...
crikey! Don't panic, this isn't your fault so whatever happens you've done your best. Don't let people worry you, about the big dog thing. I had similar worries when the dog at work (a jrt) got pregnant to a large springer. They were all born perfectly fine and resemble their mum in size more...
ouch! 12kg does seem a lot for a king charles, poor thing, bless him, thats some stocky bones he's got for sure! Erm i think protein is good for a dog, carbs are more likely to cause problems, and (surprisingly) some of those dentistick things can have a lot of sugars in, so check out the...
shoving her nose in it is an old wives tale and it will not help. Dogs don't learn in that way. If you spot her doing it, you can shout no, but it is pointless, and really harsh, to shove her nose in it after the fact, she won t relate the two, and she will wonder why her loving owner is...
how long had you been on the new grainfree diet? did you try the lemon juice rinses or thornit powder (which is a similar thing)? Do her paws still smell? Did you ask him about yeast? Those articles did say that the itching would get temporarily worse after a few weeks as yeast dies off on a...
any chance you could get someone to house/dogsit, while you are away? I see you're in Hove, i'm at the marina brighton! i'd do it if my dog wasn't such a bugger, he'd be bullying yours too! If you get really stuck i'll help you work something out. :)
crikey he is beautiful!!!
He looks like the greyhound version of my dog, if thats not blowing my own trumpet! (my avatar doesn't do mine justice) I'm off to play the lottery this weekend, get me a bigger house!
Hope he finds a home soon, if i don't win the lottery first. Can't believe he...
he sounds great!!! He's probably very relieved to get a bit of space from the bully and let out a bit of tension doing terrier things!
4-5 hours is the reccomended longest time to leave an adult dog, between loo breaks, but some do leave them for longer. I'd say that sounds fine. With any dog...
Congratulations!!! I bloody love jack russells! They are champion little dogs, very doggy little dogs, and fairly easy to read, body language wise. I also believe in fate for this kind of thing, and whatever happens over the next few days or weeks, you've done a good thing for today, so well...
