Wow, you have my sympathy. Your dealing with a pretty tough situation... I don't know much of anything about multiple dog households. But, I do have a multiple pet household and I can tell you this, it takes more than 2 weeks for animals to adjust to each other. We've had Oscar (our boxer baby)...

I still think our pup is a little on the thin side with his ribs showing and all. He eats well enough too. At 8 weeks he was 10 lbs, and then at 9 weeks he was 15.5 lbs! He put on 5 1/2 lbs yet he's still as ribby and skinny as he can be!

Ok, thanks for the info! I'll check out that web site as well as do some research on the others. I really appriciate all of ya'lls advice!

How do you teach "let's go" instead of "come here" having one command being associated with positive things and the other with things that the pup doesn't exactly care for and get them to obey both? (I'm starting to have the same problem with our pup not wanting to come back inside after going...

Oscar's 9 weeks now, just a baby still. The lack of sleep was killing us, but finally (around Oscar's 8th week) we came up with a pretty good schedule for sleeping in. We placed his crate in our bedroom then during the night we'll take him out to relieve himself, then come 5:00 when he...

I've never heard or seen any of those brands...can you find them is plain old pet stores like Petsmart, Pet Stop and what not?

Oh, I see... just got done disecting the ingredients, I see... thank you... I see what you mean by not being the "worst" but that there are better ones. I'll do some looking around. Thank you

I have a 9 week old pup too... =) Could it be allergies? Have you called your vet yet?

Nutro Max Puppy. Some poeple I know told me that this was one of the better puppy foods that I could be feeding him. Is there something better that I should be feeding him? Other than his kibble I treat him with peanut butter and a Natural Selects Lamb sausage log. The other wierd thing...

My poor pup had a vaccination reaction at 9 weeks and his poor head swelled...I took him back to the vet and he received an antihistimine shot.... needless to say now he has to pee every 20-45 minutes now, plus he's on children's benedryl for the next 24 hrs. I suspect now that this maybe a set...

I just took Oscar to the vet yesterday and she said he's a very healthy boxer but that he was a bit on the thin side. I was feeding him 4 times a day, but he wouldn't eat much so I cut it back to 3 hoping to get his appitite up. He was until recently eating kibble with a little water in it but...

Oscar does the whole using-his-paws-like-a-cat thing but I was told that that was a typical boxer trait. (It's so funny to see him pounce though) Our little pup has recently prefered the cats' toys to his own... I have one of those cat fishing rods, you know with the string attached to a...

ohhh... thanks

A fear stage? What's that? When do they occur?

I agree with apollosdad, if you see your dog relieve himself in the house you should let him know that you don't approve. I've caught Oscar in mid act picked him up and ran him outside to finish. We tell him "No-No" everytime he goes in the house, and praise him like crazy when he goes outside...
