We adopted our dog, Heffy (a dachshund-basset hound mix), off the street when we were on holiday. According to the locals, he had been stray for at least 4 months and he has a lot of scars that indicate that he was mistreated. He is really nice, quiet and sweet and gets along really well with...

Please watch this short video of my dog growling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JsPAWPX-54&feature=youtu.be He bites, but he didn't really want to bite in this video. Is this pure excitement or a mixture with fear/aggression? Moto is from the shelter. I adopted him 2 months ago. He is a male...

My husband and I rescued a 5 year old terrier mix from the Humane Society in February. The dog was very shy and little bit skittish at first, but he really started to warm up to us after a few weeks at home. He is obedient and good on the leash. We have introduced him to lots of dogs and people...

My little puppy seems upset with me lately, and I'm worried that it's because I haven't been able to spend as much time with her the past few days. When I'm not home, I have to leave her in her crate (nothing unusual), and I have a dog walker take her out for a lunch time potty break. Usually...

My American Bulldog is a female named izzy and she will be 6 in July. We rented a few times in various cities so she is used to moving often. The last place we were at we started for about 2.5 years. We just bought a house, a more permanent solution. She never showed any sign of aggression...

Recently we were messing around with our lab when we noticed that if you made a sniffing sound near his ear, he will growl at you. He is never aggressive or violent in any way; this is the only way to make him growl. What do you guys think about this? Just a quirk or is something else going on...
