My chihuahua was fine after he banged his head on my elbow, but it did hurt for me so for sure he felt pain also. Should i be worried for a cracked skull or head injury? It's been 30 minutes and his behaviour is normal, but I am so worried!

My boyfriend and I have just adopted a 2-year old Dachshund. He has spent his entire life thus far in a breeding kennel, and is very distrusting of humans. Day 1- we let him stay in his carrier with the door open so he could come out of the carrier as he pleased. We provided positive...

Hi there, A month ago, I moved into an apartment with my boyfriend and my 6 year old dog. We use to live in a house (much bigger than 500sqft) with a yard she played in and never had any problems peeing in the house. She had a good relationship with the mailman. He played with her when she was...

We need some help or techniques to help train our puppy to let us know she needs to go outside. A little information here - Our puppy is about 5 1/2 months old and we've had her since she was 3 months. When we got her she was pretty much pee pad trained and knew to pee when she went outside...

I need to provide a bit of backstory to make sense of my problem. I'm sorry for the length. On days one-two home with 7 week old pup, I would take him out to a dirt area by my apartment. The only grass around my apartment is frequented constantly by sketchy dogs and owners who don't even pick...

We have a beautiful and smart 15-week old French Brittany named Piper. We've had her since she was 8-weeks. We absolutely love her, but we've been having some serious trouble with the her housetraining when aren't home. When we are home, she rarely has accidents. The main issue is that she'll...

I recently got a Weimaraner puppy, Bandit, she is 9 weeks old tomorrow. Today was a rainy day and I could tell Bandit needed an outlet rather than sitting by the fire chewing on her toy so I took her and our motherly whippet out the back for an explore while the rain had stopped. During this I...

My puppy has just recently turned 5 months old and tonight we had a few potty issues. I train him every afternoon on Monday's and my trainer has told me before that since we give him lots of treats during this time he might get an upset stomach. He hasn't for the last couple of weeks, but...

We've had our female mini schnauzer, Ezreal, for five months now, and we are still having trouble with her having accidents in the house. We've been crate training her, but she's very inconsistant with how long she seems to be able to hold it, and doesn't appear to do anything to tell us when...

Hi every body, I brought home my beagle pup Buddy yesterday, and all your stories and experiences on this forum have been an invaluable.:thumbsup: Now to set the scene, after much research we have decided to use the crate training method to housebreak Buddy. He didn't have any trouble...

We have had a disaster. Me and my dog (entire female) are staying with my parents at the moment, who had three dogs (1 neutered male, 1 neutered female and one entire female) which was fine. They then rescued a stray, who was an entire male. Suddenly, both entire females came into heat. So...

A couple of weeks ago, some friends of our family were riding horses in my neighbor's corn field across the street. Our dogs, who have been around them and their horses before, ran playfully next to them. One of the horses spooked and the 23 year old Marine riding it fell off; he was wearing a...
