How do i know when my 3 month old puppy (german shepherd) wants to go and what time is best to take him out to do his business

Our dogs are on Trilostane (also called Vetoryl) to control their Cushing's. We renewed their 3 month prescriptions today. The cost has jumped by 25%. The pharmacist says their supplier cost increased. I am wondering if I should shop around or not: if the medication has increased "across the board" I will stay with our pharmacy because we receive good service. If it has not increased generally, I will make a few phone calls.

i’m going on a 9 month rotation late Feb/early March, putting household goods in a storage unit, and my family agreed to watch my two dogs. i get a couple days of leave before leaving. I don’t want to waste 48 hours of driving there and back (I just did it over HBL). what are the best options for dog travel that won’t be too pricey? also, trying to see if i need to fly with them or not.. worried about their safety, but also not trying to spend a ton of money.

Hi all, my family recently adopted a rescue from Belarus, she’s a year and a half old and I’m trying to figure out if she knows any commands. I tried searching around on google to find some in Russian or Belarusian with no avail. I know it’s a long shot but I thought id ask here in case anyone might be able to educate me. Thanks!

I got my rescue when she was about a year and a half old, and she’s always struggled with potty training. I’ve followed all the usual recommendations: a consistent potty schedule, frequent breaks during the day, little to no punishment, and lots of praise and treats when she goes outside. For the most part she does potty outdoors, but about once or twice a week she’ll pee inside, and about once a month she’ll even poop indoors, almost always when I’m out of the apartment or asleep. When I’m out for longer periods (like work) she’s gated in the kitchen.

Since I’ve been consistent with training and it’s been two years, I’m wondering what my next steps should be. I’ve have dropped urine samples by the vet and the vet said it clear for a UTI. Is there anything I might be missing, or anything else I can try?

Does your dog turn his head when he hears an odd noise? Does your dog bury their food with your pants? This is the thread to ask why.
