I trained him as a puppy just the same way as I did my Springer but it didn’t work. He is much better than he used to be but still poohs & pees in the house if he needs to go. He hasn’t learnt to hold it in.

Chihuahuas
Autumn P asked:


I know the cost of a purebred chihuahuas has probably increased with the appearance of the tacobell dog a few years ago and Paris Hilton using them as a statis symbol. But when you want one just to love and hug, Just for a pet why do you have to go into debt? Pet quality non-breeding (spayed and neutered) chihuahuas are no better than a mutt, really. I am just curious. I will probably go to the local humane society and adopt a small cute dog. It is just that there was always a chihuahuas around when I was growing up and I thought I’d like to have one now. But I can’t go into that much debt.
I have learned (in Canada) most breeders spay or neuter the chihuahuas before selling them and they are still asking from $1200.00 to $2000.00. I have contacted 2 Rescue Shelters and they are selling these chihuahuas for $1200.00. I am not looking for a show quality dog. I am looking for a pet. Only a pet. I do not want to mortgage my house either. For the price breeders are asking for a “fixed” dog is rediculous. I mean they are no longer show quality. They can not be used for breeding. There valu other than a statis symbol is “0″. I am not looking for a statis symbol. or a shiny object to place on my finger. I just want a pet. Chihuahuas were a family pet when I was growing up. I can tell you we paid no more that $200.00 then. I just find this pricing for a dog you just want to love is silly.
I agree. If these dogs are show quality dogs then ask the $1200 to $2000 price.

But once you spay or neuter them (most breeders in Canada seem to do this) there is no monitary value left for the dog. It is just a fixed dog. Worthless.

I am not saying that it isn’t difficult to breed these little guys. And I don’t care that you spay or neuter them. I don’t mind reimbursing the breeder for the neutering, and first shots and a little something extra for actually breeding the pup. But to ask $1200.00 for a non-breeding, unshowable dog is …. well just crazy. I don’t mean to argue the point. But as yet I haven’t seen an answer that best answers my question. Why are breeders asking $1200.00 to $2000.00 for a non-breeding already spayed/neutered, unshowable dog?

dog
Vicks asked:


I’m thinking of getting a dog. The only problem is that we live next to a reserve, so i’m thinking that it should fit into a few criterias:

- Does not bark excessively (many people walking in the reserve)
- An able guard dog, just enough to keep strangers from entering our property
- Not a hard dog to train, as i’ve never owned a dog before.
- Preferably not aggressive.

Are there any dogs which have these traits? I’d really appreciate some answers, i’m no dog expert so this will help me a lot. Thanks.

Beagle
mr_and_mrs.x asked:


i have a 10 week old beagle, and he has some toys he likes. He plays with all his toys and a pair of old shoes he plays with for hours a day. My husband and i play with him at least 8/10 hours a day and he sleeps with us at night. We even go for 3 walks a day, but this still doesn’t keep him content. I thought about getting another beagle, but i can’t have another one. Anyone have any suggestions about some good toys? I have him in a beagle rabbit club, where he is learning to hunt rabbits slowly.

Bulldog
champaigne taste asked:


My English bulldog, mambo, is a little over a year old. Here in the last couple of days, he has been somewhat depressed. I took a look at his face, as it seemed to be breaking out. His skin is horribly upset, with redness. He has lost hair around his face. Under his chin. There are some bumps, patchy hair loss, and overall the skin just looks miserable. Any clue what this could be?
