Hi my dog is a Greyhound er she's 7 years old if that helps and I've had her for 4 years. She slept in my room ever since we got her but she stopped a few months ago. There aren't any changes to my room, is this just maturing or something else

Hello, everyone. I will be getting a dog in the near future. It will not be a puppy and therefore accustomed to its already assigned name.

I want to change it. We are expecting to have the dog by the time he is between 10 and 11 months old.

1. Is it easy to change a dog’s name?

2. How do I go about doing this?

3. Is it worth going through the hassle of a name change?

Starting about 2 weeks ago I’ve been having an issue with keeping my dogs outside for potty. 2 aussies, both well potty trained. My girl gets free rein because she has great recall, my boy is tied out. Both of them have pooped inside during this time, extremely unusual.

I live in a small town in PA, we get deer and that’s about it. My boy pooped in his crate the other day, I tried to take them out around 4am. He would barely leave the house and my girl wouldn’t leave at all.

Even during the day he doesn’t want to leave the sidewalk area. My girl will go potty normally. I haven’t seen anything going out with them, but are they sensing something? I’m concerned on what this could be.

Svajone Vs Nightwalk

I’m interested in both beauceron breeders. I’ve reached out to both, met a few beaucies from them and really enjoyed them. I’d like to hear everyone experiences with these two breeders, and these two breeders only.

Thank you!

Hello! i have a senior American eskimo who is around 27 pounds. I recently just got my own car and now im looking for the best car safety crate or harness for her. She’s awful in the car, she moves around and tries to get into the front seat or stand to get to the windows. I’ve tried the car seat, hammock, barrier.. etc. but nothing really worked out as she still would freak out in the back and cause me trouble while driving. I’d love to hear your suggestions and help!

Pretty much the title. My past 2 dogs never cared or paid any attention to our Tv. This includes many different types of tvs over the years. Those 2 dogs were mutts (large dogs mixed with who knows what). Now I have an Aussie and she will clearly watch tv with us. She stares and appears to be watching it like we do and can get startled too. Why do some dogs seem like they can’t even really see the tv (no reaction to visuals, only sound) while others will react to seeing animals on the tv and seem to actually watch it?

so recently I was playing around with a black light and I saw a spot where my dog peed that id never noticed. you can’t tell when it’s dry, and I assume the accident happened weeks or months earlier, if not more. But my dog does like to lie down in that spot, yet there is no wetness, smell, or anything to give it away. so my question is if I should still wash her and/or the things she’s been laying on since? its been dry for a very long time, but I’m not sure how residue works. Thanks!

Hi I have two Pomeranians and I’m looking for the best inside dog kennel/ crate recommendations I don’t like the wired ones I recently got the a huge playpen but one of the is able to climb out so I need something enclosed.

We have 2 six month shih tzus. In last week or so they have started barking throughout the night, one starts the other joins in. It can be for several reasons, one of the kids went to the toilet upstairs (we sleep downstairs and they sleep with us), a car went past (our house looks onto the street), the washing machine is finishing its cycle, or for other reasons w I didnt hear. This barking session can go on for several minutes and nothing seems to calm them down. Last night we has 5 incidents and im very tired. They had an hours walk last night, they sleep on our bed, we reassure them theres nothing to be worried about. But no surehow much broken sleep i can take at this point. Thinking about getting one of those barkinging aids that emit a high frequency noise every time they bark. What else should i do? Its be 16 years since my last dog was a puppy and i dont remember going through this 😂

Although she still loves her job and is not ready to retire, my current service dog is getting a bit older, and I want to start lightly looking for an addition to the squad.

Let me note- I adore dogs with all my heart, but I’ve never done extensive research on specific breeds as I’ve never purchased a dog for myself (SD was given to me with the threat of being sent to the pound otherwise).

I have done a bit of research and narrowed it down to a handful of breeds, but what websites do yall recommend?
