Need help with pee pee... Dogs Nov 27, 2008 03:47 AM Balancer for you!! Great answer!!
when will she come in... Dogs Nov 26, 2008 11:29 PM I agree 100%. There is too much uneducated, careless breeding going on. Only the dogs suffer while the owner pocket book gets fuller. :(
chihuahua runt puppy Dogs Nov 24, 2008 03:06 PM Exactly. There are enough unwanted dogs in the world already, why add more?
at what age do have a... Dogs Nov 18, 2008 07:24 PM That's what I would do.
potty train for my shih... Dogs Nov 15, 2008 02:54 PM Very true! Especially for a Shih Tzu, I have two and once they make the connection they are the best at letting their owners know they have to go!
Honeywell RTH230B... Electrical & Lighting Nov 12, 2008 10:36 AM Great, very clear!
Dog breeeding Dogs Nov 6, 2008 06:21 AM I agree 100%.

Puppy had parvo how... Dogs Aug 18, 2008 07:30 PM so glad you chimed in !!!
4 Month old Rottie... Dogs May 24, 2008 02:06 PM labman is right on! And a reputable breeder wants to know this about the bloodline they work with. Too many people are hung up on looks and temperament is vital.
Poop eating Dogs May 22, 2008 10:18 PM Yes, I saw the suggestion of smacking the dog, by TwinkieDooter, thanks for having it removed!
littler green dots Forum Help May 22, 2008 06:29 PM Pet Lovers are the best! good writing skills too.
Poop eating Dogs May 22, 2008 12:32 PM Who recommended hitting the dog? no one said that

Dog attacks owner for... Dogs May 7, 2008 06:00 AM Thankyou for posting those sites. I will also check them out. :)
Sick Puppy Dogs May 4, 2008 10:15 PM Ah, I didn't even think of that, and you are so right. An older dog would definitely be a wise choice, and so many need a good home.

shih tzu : biting Dogs Mar 28, 2008 08:51 AM Woderful and helpful advice...!!!!! As always.

93 Honda Civic No Spark Cars & Trucks Mar 6, 2008 10:54 PM best suggestion
New puppy won't stop... Dogs Feb 21, 2008 05:48 PM I'll mark this as accurate just because he's an expert but I still disagree with his methods. You would have to give up caring for your first-born to provide the time and attention that labman is suggesting. And where do you go if it doesn't work?
7 mo. lab with appitite... Dogs Feb 19, 2008 04:14 PM I agree, at 6mo. he was 60 lbs. He has been fed only two dif. foods Purina 1 puppies, purina 1 lamb and rice.
When can I get another... Dogs Feb 19, 2008 04:07 PM Excellent. Use a 1/30 scale on the bleach if you use it. More is NOT helpful.
hot water heater valve Plumbing Feb 7, 2008 02:40 PM You are correct, when I replaced the valve it was stuck open with a chunk of buildup. I will remember not to open it to flush it as the tag suggests.Thank you.
Animals in Garbage Dogs Jan 30, 2008 03:15 PM Use dish soap then! The point is messy garbage! sorry I used a bad example for messy type garbage!
Animals in Garbage Dogs Jan 30, 2008 01:54 PM Great answer. :)
How to train an old dog... Dogs Jan 27, 2008 07:56 AM Absolutely - there are lots of old dogs out there that nobody will take in. Congrats! (And I agree on the short leash with a handle thing. I've seen them in stores.)
put dog in kennel Dogs Jan 23, 2008 12:52 PM Great tip. Thank you
Why is my adopted dog... Dogs Jan 23, 2008 09:34 AM yep exactly waht I meant by use to quier environment-no interaction-not socialized
Why is my adopted dog... Dogs Jan 22, 2008 09:44 PM Yes, early socialization problem -- lack of desentization training when a pup.
euthenasizing a pet Dogs Jan 22, 2008 01:10 AM Dear God, this pretty much says it all....
HotWater Heater Appliances Jan 12, 2008 10:40 AM This also had me check the thermostat and I found the last person to work on it left it set really low. Thanks labman.
8 week old chihuahua,... Dogs Jan 11, 2008 11:50 PM very we,, answered
no power out to my... Heating & Air Conditioning Jan 10, 2008 05:05 PM bad transformer
I just got a new 8 week... Dogs Jan 10, 2008 11:58 AM Labmans answere is totally accurate! The consistancy factor is vital!
Mother not feeding pups Dogs Jan 10, 2008 01:14 AM whether or not this is an accurate answer, it could have been done in a better way. Not everyone that has a litter of pups has all the answers or is a professional breeder. You yourself said that you learned things along the way. HMMMM!
ugh! my dogs gone in heat Dogs Jan 7, 2008 11:05 PM Yeah for sure they can't be left alone together !
can anything be done 4... Dogs Jan 7, 2008 01:02 PM Did not answer the op's question just gave personal feeling on holistic treatments. Also, suggeted that my info was cruel.
An alternative to Crate... Dogs Jan 6, 2008 09:49 PM She misread the breed site. No closed crate is what it says.
The Daily Coyote Other Pets & Animals Jan 3, 2008 01:05 PM I read Merle's Door several months ago. Of all the animal (cat, dog, elephant, etc.) books I've read, esp. those by J. Masson, Merle's Door is by far the very best.
breaker triping Electrical & Lighting Jan 1, 2008 04:33 PM I should have known with 4mm cable. Thanks
Which wires on a... Heating & Air Conditioning Jan 1, 2008 03:12 PM waste of time
220v dryer plug... Appliances Dec 31, 2007 01:33 PM not necessarily so labman, thing about this, changing the pigtail is SAFER because you can be sure that the current is off seeing as how it is disconnected.
my dog just had puppies Dogs Dec 30, 2007 04:04 PM Listen to labman. He knows whereof he speaks. If labman says go to the vet, please do it.
Residue from duct tape... Other Home & Garden Dec 30, 2007 12:13 AM Good suggestion!!
A good dog... Dogs Dec 27, 2007 07:46 PM I have had my outbursts quite a few times already, complete with the swear words. Would have turned a sailor red to hear it all.

Wires to Pressure... Heating & Air Conditioning Dec 26, 2007 11:46 PM Thanks for the quick replies!
About: Puppies Dogs Dec 26, 2007 11:17 PM Hopefully the Lowchens site will not turn her dog into a socially inferior beast...maybe you need to delete it. So other puppies will not be endangered by the information.
About: Puppies Dogs Dec 26, 2007 07:44 PM Thank you very much, but i live in australia and i can't get books like that
3yr Old Poma-poo had a... Dogs Dec 25, 2007 02:04 PM Thanks for your advice on the home-made diet. It's true, I'm definitely nowhere near 'expert' enough to know what he needs. Is there anything better than Kibbles & Bits you would suggest? Expensive is okay-he's tiny and doesn't eat much.
Puppy's legs bendind... Dogs Dec 25, 2007 01:28 PM wrong about what? Letting your vet guide your decision. I am not insisting there is only one way,you are.
Mysterious pup Dogs Dec 24, 2007 04:20 PM I im school to be a vet and it is almost impossible to know how large a dog is going to be!
Puppy's legs bendind... Dogs Dec 23, 2007 04:17 AM Very true about sites, but this happens to be one that I gave to bushg. The lady knows her danes. I am glad that bushg remembered it.
Surg Supperssors and... Computers for Beginners Dec 22, 2007 06:50 PM THIS WILL WORK
Bloody muchous instead... Dogs Dec 22, 2007 12:04 PM vet apt went well, whew, colitus, bindi was hydrated, given a shot to stop the runs, and, pills to put good bacteria into her colon
Drilling concrete Construction Dec 20, 2007 12:09 PM thanks for this suggestion, I will be searching for a rental outfit with a hanging core drill.
Furnace 'fires' Blower... Heating & Air Conditioning Dec 20, 2007 08:50 AM Also quite true. Wouldn't hurt to Ohm out the motor either.
My Dauschunds Agressive... Dogs Dec 19, 2007 04:11 PM really good advice

Old Dog Won't Stop... Dogs Dec 11, 2007 04:17 PM Perfect response. No need for any input from me.
morning after pill for... Dogs Dec 11, 2007 08:37 AM I left that determination to the vet that we're all urging her to see above all else.
How to kill mice... Pest Control Dec 10, 2007 07:52 PM I agree, drowning is one of the worst deaths that I can imagine.
Pilot needs lit Appliances Dec 10, 2007 04:21 PM Where I live most houses have furnaces in the basements , trailers have down flow
New lighting circuit... Electrical & Lighting Dec 10, 2007 01:06 PM If I manage to toast another, this will be my first method of narrowing the problem.
morning after pill for... Dogs Dec 9, 2007 06:09 PM he did not tell me anymore than i already knew. i an not a careless person as he stated.
I think My dog is... Dogs Dec 9, 2007 04:19 PM your right should have had her spayed b4 and yes she has had all of her shots i do take care of her as far as that goes
Pex to copper Plumbing Dec 9, 2007 01:56 PM I think that is worth looking at. I am concerned that there may be a space issue. It is in a low crawl space but I will check it out. Thanks for the quick response.
My puppy wont sleep @... Dogs Dec 7, 2007 09:54 PM ok I basically was thinking his sleeping could be like people get insomnia on occasion and you know more about growing joints than I do...I only know about OLD arthritic joints like mine
My 11 year old dog just... Dogs Dec 6, 2007 11:31 PM Too bad everyone doesn't have to sign a contract to say they promise to take care of their dogs. -sigh-
skinny dog wont gain... Dogs Dec 5, 2007 08:31 AM I agree that a raw diet is NOT the answer, but I think the poster should do some more research into dog nutrition of his/her own!
why is he shedding Dogs Dec 4, 2007 07:05 PM feeding a little chicken breast, white rice or yogurt as the aspca recommends could help the hair loss, I have a pom/doxie mix that sheds very little. It may be how I feed her.
Dog with picky eating... Admins & Supermods Dec 4, 2007 01:12 PM Where is your proof the aspca is a 'whacky site'???
Dog with picky eating... Admins & Supermods Dec 4, 2007 12:28 PM It appears that NOhelp4u WAS saying the same thing that your sticky recommended, labman. Perhaps you read the response wrong?
Dog with picky eating... Admins & Supermods Dec 3, 2007 09:08 PM I did not write that article and you know it..those are not my ideas, only ones that I agree with. It works for me and my dogs and may work for others. So who are you to disagree with the way I or anyone else feed our dogs.
"Christian Rock"? er... Christianity Dec 3, 2007 08:22 PM Vineyard.......that is worth looking into!
