  • New puppy attire lol

    For pups under the age of 16 weeks (so before fully vaxed) what did you keep on your pups in public? Leash, collar, & harness? I’m torn on if I would need his harness and leash when we’re out and about since I’ll be holding him the entire time.

  • Asking breeder for pictures

    Hi all, am waiting for a baby girl (cavalier) I put a deposit on in september, she was born early january. I received some photos of her when she started opening her eyes (around 2 weeks old) on the 20 of january, early february i sent a text asking if I could have an update on the puppy and wished everyone the best of health (due to storms around our country), to which she replied she would be sending pictures in the next few days. It has already been 2 weeks since and no updates… Dont want to be pushy and ask again, but should I be concerned or is this normal since it is a rough time taking care of puppies this age (almost 6 weeks old).

  • How long should I wait to bathe my dog if I just took a bath with scented epsom salts?

    I just took a relaxing bath with eucalyptus epsom salts and I just realized I was supposed to give my dog a bath today. I’ve heard that epsom salts can be harmful to dogs and I worry that if I bathe him right now after there was Epsom salts in the tub, any residual chemicals or whatever from it my be in the bath water or get on his paws (he likes to lick his paws).

  • Tips for dog who hates new people coming to the house

    I have a 3 year old Labrador x Border Collie cross who is wonderful with people outside the house and great when people she knows come to the house. But when new people come to the house, she barks, growls and eventually hides. Luckily, she has not lunged or bitten yet, but I do not want it to get to the stage. Does anyone have any tips or advice, please?

  • Boots help

    Hi! I’ve been wanting to get my dog boots for a while now as she comes with me a lot of places. I know there’s issues with overheating she will be watched like a hawk and not on all day.

    I’m struggling finding a pair that fit and I’m not sure why do before I try something else I wanted to try to ask here.

    I’ll provide a photo in the comments if I am able too that shows how they look on her. I got her a large fist and then bow a medium medium slips down over time seems like her paw just fits in it large was definitely too big I think. She is 50lbs and she is a mix of breeds.

  • Do dogs know when we’re sad?

    Not necessarily a problem, just something I’ve noticed.

    There have been times when I’m stressed or upset and my dog acts differently – stays closer, watches me more, or just seems more aware.

    I don’t know if I’m projecting, but it makes me wonder how much they actually understand about our emotions.
