I have a 15 week old doberman and he’s so playful, but I have tile flooring all throughout my house and it keeps causing him to slide, slip, fall, etc. No serious injuries have occurred, but I can tell his hind legs get a bit sore after a long day of slipping and sliding around lol.

I know his balance will adjust as he ages, but any tips to minimize it until then? I don’t own any rugs, but maybe I could get a traction mat sort of thing? Do I just let him figure it out? Any help is appreciated!

Will my pomskies continue to have a friendlier relationship after my girl’s first heat?

So I have two small pomskies, a 2 y.o. male (Sir) and a 7 m.o. female (Dame). The female is in the middle of her first heat, shortly after she will be spayed. Our male will remain intact for now, since his breeder wants him to stud.

Before the heat cycle, the dogs liked walking, running and playing together, but they didn’t cuddle together, and our male was slightly food agressive with her. Dame looked up to Sir, but he didn’t reciprocate the affection. It seemed he thought she needed to learn her place.

Now that our Dame is in heat, Sir loves her. They are currently sexually frustrated in their diaper and belly band. When he tries to get humpy, I push him off. But now Sir is SO SWEET with Dame. He licks her, whines when she goes out of sight, he shares his chewies and bones with her. They fall asleep cuddling.

I know Sir won’t be obsessed with Dame when she’s not in heat anymore. But I wonder if this experience will bring them closer together. Hopefully they will continue to cuddle?

Does anyone have experience with this?

Hello everyone, I’m sure you know that the Indian subcontinent is populated with Indie/Desi dogs that are mixed breeds based on the local population. These dogs had been here before any humans were, but recently there’s been a movement seeking removal of all such dogs. This led to the Supreme Court ordering removal of all stray dogs from public spaces. The shelters here are limited and there’s no way that any such dogs would be able to survive after relocation, local wildlife usually ends up hunting them.

So my question is – would anyone abroad considering have a puppy flown out to them and adopt one? Is there a chance that the dog owners of the world can sorta unite to rescue an indie (if you can afford to)

Please let me know if it sounds like a good idea!

I ADORE how my dogs always have to be touching me to feel comfortable.

Right now one is pressed against my hip and the other is stretched across my foot. Foot is completely numb. The love I feel is totally worth it.

When they curl up against my lower back, I swear I feel complete. It’s one of the best feelings in the world.

I have a 10 month old female Labrador retriever that is very aggressive towards people and dogs. She lives with two other dogs and there is no problems, but when introducing her to other dogs or people she freaks out. I have tried to desensitize her by gradually introducing her from a distance and rewarding good behavior for listening to commands etc. She always seems to continue to bark and growl at people no matter the circumstance. We were driving today and she was in the back seat and there was a kid on the sidewalk and you would have thought she was going to go through the window with the aggressive barking growling and body language. Idk what to do I’ve never had a dog that reacts this way. Any tips appreciated!
