Hello,
I do not know what is wrong but if there is ever any sign of having trouble breathing it should be considered an emergency and you should go immediately to a veterinarian.
Hi,
I have a four year old Patterdale terrier. He has started to attack the TV when I watch cooking shows. He jumps at the TV and starts to try and bite it. We have tried putting out of the room and bringing him back in once the show has ended but he starts moaning if he is out of the room for too long.
Could I have some advice on how to stop this behaviour?
Thank you

Our husky had his girlfriend over and they had relations for the first time. Actually a few times over the past couple of days. She went home and he is trembling and hard breathing. She has been gone for a few hours. What could be going on?

she is not going throught obidience classes
we were told she is to smart for them…
at 4 months she new Sit, Stay, Come, Lye Down, Leave it and go fetch…
so i dont know why she still goes crazy and jumps on me, she bites hard and goes CRAZY…
She listens sometimes but we think that she may have established that i am only her playate what do u think? -
Anonymous First things first: She’s a puppy! Puppies are CRAZY.
Have you gone through obedience training classes with her? I strongly suggest them…they help build the bond with your puppy, and will absolutely help you get her to focus on you.

Phil Richardson I have been watching that very same behaviour now the trainer in this case says that she goes mad and causes chaos because she might a not now how to interact properly with other dogs as when u were told your pups to clever did that end the socilazing with other animals and there owners ..do u walk or interact much with other dogs on your walk has she been on a pack walk with u and other dogs also if she is on a leash if you are not calm when meeting other people or other dogs your fears and tension is put straight on your dog as dogs thrive off our energy we are projecting u have to be calm and have the leash slack

Anonymous That trainer has no idea what they’re doing, then. Look elsewhere. If need be, do a Google search for dog training clubs in your area.
She’s a puppy – she thinks *everything* is her playmate. Be gentle but firm when you redirect her. I left a leash on my puppy when she wasn’t crated – it made corrections easy.
One thing a lot of folks do is train an incompatible behavior. So when she goes to jump, have her sit instead. Or have her get you a toy.

9/23/16 2 yr old Maltese has IVDD and has a cervical issue. We didn’t take him to the neurologist, but chose to treat with medication. He was paralyzed is all but one front leg. Never lost deep pain. It’s been two weeks of crate confinement and he is much better. He can sit and has even stood a couple of times.
My question is, how long does he need to stay confined in a small space? Do i let him try to stand?
my guinea pig is not feeling well she’s hardly eating and she keeps on getting cold spells she is 8 years old and i don’t know what to do

I have a 16 month old Shih Tzu who will not stop eliminating in her crate. She is a house dog so she has a spot in the house that she goes. She knows where this spot is and she will use it with no problem but as soon as I put her in the crate and walks away she will pee and poop in there instead of waiting. She also lays in it and steps in it and its so frustrating…any advice?

Anonymous She has been taught that inside the house = potty. That means *anywhere* inside the house. Eliminate the pee pads and start taking her outside every single time. Make the spot in the crate just large enough for her to lie down and turn around. Take her out every hour and praise her when she eliminates outside.
Also, thoroughly clean the crate with white vinegar and/or an enzyme cleaner.
Hello! My 4 month year old Lab had diarrhea last night and seems to go every 2 to 3 hours. I tried her on some rice and she vomited. She acts ok. She still will play then nap, which is kinda normal. After the rice her pooped looked green?I wonder if anyone has some advice to avoid dehydration? How soon should I take her in?
Hello,
Recently (today) we had brought our 2 year old pit mix to the vet. He currently has ear infections in both ears. We were prescribed pills for the swelling, ear drops and ear wash. The pills are the easy part… the hard part is cleaning his ears. I know I am doing it right because of another animal we have that had ear infections. We have tried treats, sitting with him and going slow. But there is just no stopping the biting and the whining. I know it must suck for him and I’m going easy with him. Is there any more suggestions to help calm him down so I can wash his ears? Thanks..

Brittany Mullens Update: thank you for the advice. I asked the vet today and she gave us a topical. Also the swelling of his ears has gone down significantly. Which definitly helps with the process of cleaning… I have washed his ears before and I do with the other dogs because I knew if one had ear infections it’s possible for the others to be prone (they are siblings). I think it was just because of the pain factor. We still go super slow with him and try to keep him as calm as possible. But so far so good! Thank you again!
Three weeks ago we adopted a 4 year old female dachshund/beagle mix. She’s very sweet and loving toward everyone in the family except my younger son. He is 17, a gentle animal lover, and has never done anything to this dog. She barks at him, growls at him, or just runs away from him. It makes him very sad. Can we get her to warm up to him?
Hello,
There seems to be something about either the noise, the color, the characters, etc that bothers or interests him. It only happens on cooking shows? If so I would try to offer toys, lots of exercise and start conditioning him by offering a toy, a fun treat or something he loves when he starts to react to the show. It might also help to start training him to not be so reactive by turning the song all the way down and working on him acclimating to the show without noise, or try to turn the picture down. The point is to gradually keep exposing him to rhe stimuli at very small doses and not react to him when he reacts to it. Often owners worsen the anxiety or issue by yelling or reprimanding their dog. Never reprimand or yell it always makes things worse. And avoiding the tv will not help the situation and it may instead perpetuate it into other shows or even the tv when it’s not on.
Your dog is upset about something wrt the tv or that show help him work through it so you can both go back to enjoying your favorite tv shows.
Please also ask your vet for a positive reinforcement trainer. Often they will pick up on clues and provide tips you aren’t recognizing or understanding.
Good luck
