should dogs be able to go on
lunges. why
lounge

If you are referring to a lunge line, like they use with horses, yes. It allows the dog to expend excess energy. However, make sure you reverse the direction, to equalize the muscles used. It also has him out with you, and running without pulling. |

How to teach big dogs to be I have a great dane and am
getting a small dog (12
pounds). He is very
considerate of other dogs when
socializing. But- just in case
I would like to ask anyone who
has a big dog and small dog
how they got there big dog to
be considerate (not step on,
not bite, and to be easy
playing) of the small dog. I
would like to know about how
people taught their big dogs
that. Also I would like to ask
how to introduce a big dog to
a small dog. We are getting
our small dog second, since we
already have a big dog. Does
that make a difference? Thank
you.

I used to have two grooming clients. One a great Dane (who has passed away) the other a Papillon (still with me). The Dane used to sit and whimper at the Papillon sitting in his second story drying cage. One day the owner of the Papillon asked if it would be OK to put her little dog down near the Dane for a picture. She did and the Dane was so thrilled he immediately dropped into the play posture, inviting the little guy to play. I have had several Danes over the years at the groom shop and have only ever seen the gentle side of these giants. A well socialized dog seem to always know what is appropriate to the size of the smaller babies. Just make sure that you introduce your Dane to the new baby outside of the home and then take them both back home together. Never just drop a new dog of any size into a home where an existing pet has residence. |

How can I fix my dogs unusual My dog is a minituare
Schnauzer, but he's really big
for a minituare. Well my dogs
problem is that he always
barks and growls at other
dogs, even ones that are twice
his size. He can't confront
other dogs because there
either scared of him, or they
get pissed off at my dog.
There are only a few dogs my
dog confront calmly. I think
my dog only growls because
he's excited, because once he
meets the dog he's very gentle
and just sniffs around. How do
I fix my dogs problem, I know
one way to fix it is to get
another dog for him to play
with. But my family does not
want another dog.
It's hard to introduce him to
dogs because people just walk
away at my barking dog lol.

i have a m. schnauzer myself, and he is like that too. its a natural thing in their breed. especially if your dog is not used to being around other dogs, like mine. i dont think you CAN actually fix it, maybe just train him. schnauzers really are aggressive towards other dogs anyway, so its up to you whether you want your dog to change or just be ''natural''. i'm fine with my dog just like that. i pretend he's protecting me . :) |

As an RN, I worked in out-pt Mental health for 30 yrs. and know this has worked for clients with the same problem as yours. It sounds to me as if the true service your dogs provide for you is emotional support - and that is a legitimate service that dogs can provide. Talk to your doctor about the emotional support your dogs provide for you. He or she may be willing to write a letter explaining your emotional need to have these dogs as, in your words they, "are the only thing keeping me hanging in there". Hopefully this will change the opinion of the church and enable you to keep your dogs. Good luck and God Bless you.

check ups while young and healthy semi annual when it gets older. If it developes a disease that needs monatoring, diabetes for example, it will need to see a vet more often. When the dog gets ill and injured, and it WILL get ill and injured it needs a vet. Also dental care. To give your dog the best chance at good health it will essentially need four things. Vet care, spay/neuter, premium pet food and fresh clean water. Dog are not cheap to own.





In response to where to find Old English Sheepdogs in No. Nevada. There is/was a very reliable breeder in Lemmon Valley (No of Reno). I purchased, many years ago, from them. They were reliable and their stock of show quality. During those years they sold for $600....I am sure much more costly now. However, there are always just pet stock in litters and would go for less. Direct a note to animal control in that area and they should know of that breeder, if still there.
