I have an almost 6 month old doodle – he’s such a good boy. He gets tired after a 30 min walk and will spend the rest of the day resting. When I settle, he’ll settle. He’ll get the zoomies or energy sometime towards the end of the day, but for the most part, he’s a good boy. Is this normal? Is he just a low energy doodle? He eats fine, drinks water, goes on walks and explores when I take him.

Whenever my 8 month old pup turns into a demon at night I put her to bed. I feel like it’s getting earlier and earlier :’) help

Her foster fam put her in at 9, I usually put her in around 8, I just put her in and it’s 7:40. She was going crazy. She’s a totally different dog at different points of the day.

I have a trainer coming in 2 weeks but idk if we’re gonna make it. My family is going crazy.

We haven't had a young puppy in awhile, and definitely take for granted how much easier adult dogs are. Anyway, this little lady is about 14-16 weeks old, just adopted a couple days ago. We're trying to work on her settling in a pen, because I can't watch her constantly while I'm working from home. But if she is alone in the pen she'll start crying and pushing it around. So far she only will nap is she can see someone (in crate or in pen).

I've watched some training videos on making them like their pen, but I cannot treat her without her going absolutely nuts. Acts like she hasnt eaten in weeks. Even trying to just feed her a piece at a time while starting to practice sit and stuff she just goes ballistic looking for every single crumb. Knocking the bowl over. Climbing up into my face. I'm not sure how I can practice rewarding calmness if one piece of kibble gets her super riled up for more. Even if she's just had a meal she'll freak out looking for more or sprint to eat the older dogs food. I'm just a little overwhelmed

My mom suprised us with a puppy Friday. It's our first dog and I have no idea what to do. I think the puppy is 6 or 7 weeks old. We have a crate for her, a bed and water but she doesn't like the food bowl lol. We have food but we are wetting it so it's easier to eat. She is teething at the moment.

My sister is heading to pet co in 2 hours to buy some supplies for Lunabelle. Told her to buy grooming supplies and animal safe cleaning supplies. As well as a teething toy. Any recommendations on what exactly to buy would be welcome. Thank you.

hello! currently i have a 2021 kia sportage and i LOVE the car, however it is very small for what i need🥲 im probably a year or two out from getting a new car but currently i have a 5yo, 9 month old, a golden retriever, and a 40lbs mutt. i want it to be big enough for my younger child’s car seat, my 5yo booster, and two large size crash tested crates. we are moving to arizona in april so any bonuses for a car that will hold up there as well. thank you!!

currently deciding between a ruffwear harness or a nonstop dog wear harness. wondering if anyone has a preference between the two and why! but if there is another company that you think is good please drop it below

Hi so my family and I have been struggling a lot lately and we are in between paychecks and I can’t afford dog food? What can I make them to feed them that is ideally cheaper ingredients? Thanks so much!

Help, i really need some advice to deal with and to overcome this. The pain is too much for me even though i thought i has been mentally preparin for this lost. He’s 10years old and was a good boy, or should i say, the best.

Now i really feel like there’s a huge empty hole in my life without him..

Hey! So I have a new male pug and I've had my female Chihuahua for about a year. He runs up to her and sniffs a lot and sometimes puts his paws on her back and she always yelps whenever he does any of this. (She somehow feels fine crawling over him and all of my other dogs) Is this a sexual thing that he's doing? They're both fixed and the Chihuahua was used for breeding before I got her. My pug is the sweetest in the world but I don't want him to be doing something that's scaring her or making her uncomfortable

I found an adorable dog on the side of the road today. I loaded him up in my car and took him to the 24/7 emergency vet (the only place open) to have him scanned for a microchip. He had one! The lovely lady at the vet called the microchip company and got the owners’ information. The owners had their info up-to-date and she was able to reach them. The sweet boy is safe and sound back at home now. I’m just so happy he made it back home so quickly.

Now I just wanted to drop a little reminder to microchip your pets. And remember, getting them chipped is just the first step. You have to register their microchip number with a registry, and you have to keep your information up to date.

I would recommend choosing a registry from the AAHA Registry Lookup list:

https://www.aaha.org/for-veterinary-professionals/microchip-registry-lookup-tool-aaha-find-your-pets-microchip-registry/

Also, I like to have my pets scanned at their yearly checkup just to make sure the chip hasn’t migrated, and that everything is in good working order.

Be safe, everyone, and it was nice to meet you today, Flynn!
