when we moved to our new house both of our dogs started itching really bad the vet told us it was because we have electric heat and it dries out their skin, we coat them in oatmeal before we bath them and the problem has stopped we wash them with an oatmeal based shampoo to but if it is allergies this won't help at all.

in response to pomeranians question about the puppy throwing up in the car, my dads shitzu had this problem the vet told my dad to give him the ginger based gravol that you buy for kids because it is all natural and safe for dogs and prevents upset tummies. my dad tried it and it worked right away now his pup loves the car

i don't chain up dogs and never have or will put myself in a position to chaining up dogs... my response was to her excuse for having her dogs chained up

[QUOTE]Some people dont have that option. Im sorry but chaining them up is better than coming home to a yard full of dead dogs. So just to clarify, you think I should let, lets say 30 APBTs run around with each other in a 9ft high fence? You think that is better than chaining them up? Not very realistic.... [/QUOTE] hmmm if you had well trained dogs properly socialized to be around each other than you wouldnt have to worry about them killing each other... if you can't accomplish this maybe thirty is too many im curious why 30 dog aggressive pit bulls... dog fighting i suspect

sure i will help you ... pick up the phone, call the police and tell them you want to have your spoiled rotten brat of a daughet arrested for animal cruelty hitting a dog with a meat cleaver... are you kidding me that is the stuff serial killers are made of. your daughter deserves to be locked up... you say she is thinking of moving out.. why the hell arent you kicking her out

[/SIZE][/FONT] wow... what a horrible freakin breed. a pomeranian tore a chunk out of my but cheek when i was three should we ban them

Regardless of whether or not you think a pitbull is a bad dog or a good dog banninig a breed does nothing to fight any issue a particular breed may or may not have associated with it so it is a moot point. a ban only enables the bad and punishes the good. How many times does it have to be said that it is the owner and not the dog yes a pitbull can be agressive so can a pomeranian yes a pitbull can be dog agressive ... so can huskies yes a pitbull can bit and severly harm a person so can any other living thing with teeth. pitbulls are strong willed, determined, and powerful... they require an owner who can be assertive and demonstrate alpha stance in the family hierarchy. The bad press pitbulls get is because the majority of people who own them own them for the wrong reasons and have demeaned he proper breed characteristics. A ban will nto help this I know my province has banned them.. it has not done anything to stop attacks or dog fighting all it has done was stopped the good owners from being able to own the good pitbulls and enabled the bad breeders to be able to breed without having to register... pitbulls are a huge thing in puppy mills in ontario now. There are a number of other breeds of dogs that can do just as much if not more damage than pitbull and a number of other breeds of dogs that also need a strong pack leader. I think a better way to regulate a strong dominant maybe assertive dog woudl be to have to have certain people obtain a liscense to own that breed of dog. man stupidity makes me angry

I live in ontario canada and in our province pit balls are banned, including any pitbull mixes. people who owned pitbulls before the ban were able to keep them but had to get them neutered and their dogs had to be muzzled when in public. After living in a community with the ban for a couple of years now i can tell anyone first hand all the ban does is provide unreputal breeders who do not register their dogs uninhibited breeding ability. punish the good owners and enable the bad owners. The people who are owning pitbulls for poor reasons arent the ones who are going to follow the rules. The people who need to be legislated arent going to follow legislation. It hurts me to know that I will never be able to buy a pitbull puppy. It's heartbreaking. I owned a pit bull for years and he was the most incredible dog never agressive wonderful with kids a joy to be around when he passed away I lost one of my best friends and what is the worst is that I will never be able to experience the joy of having a pitbull again.

don't give it a human name give it a cool dog name. do you have any idea what breeds might be in there. i like rascal, sniffer, booger, bullseye, captain, boss, bozo, porky, my boys and crash and burn

I would be a labrador.. they always look like they are having so much fun even when they are doing absolutley nothing at all. It's so hard to look at a lab and not smile.. i wanna make people smile lol. Plus labs never really grow up they just get bigger, they act like puppies their whole lives... I wish I could never grow up

haha i made up a designer dog breed name for my little shelter rescue why not i just wanna fit in with the craze. hes a gsd/sibe cross i call him my gerberian huskerd... has a certain ring to it.. if i was a soulless jack*** i could breed him and sell the designer name for thousands

he does look like an american eskimo dog / pomeranian that sounds like its about right. If you really want to know buy the dna kit online take the saliva swab send in the results and they will tell you what he is.

you can buy doggie dna tests online now that will test for your dogs heritage they are about 70 bucks and you do the test at home by taking a saliva swab and then send the sample back they will analyze it and send yout he results. they are good to have for the vet, and just fun to know. def some sort of terrier mix i dont see labradoodle at all, maybe poodle but i dont see lab.

my dad has a pom-chi and it doesnt look like that but that doesnt mean he isnt one... if he is he looks like a long haired chiauau mix of some sort how much did he weigh?.. he was a cutie.. so sorry to hear your story.
