howling

New to the forums. First post, so take it easy with the rubber glove. I have a nine year-old Carolina Dog that has developed such an attachment to me it seems as if he will now do nothing without me. I had heard that these dogs develop an incredible bond with their owner, but this is getting a...

Hey, guys! I just recently got a new roommate who has a 12 year old lab mix. I immediately loved the dog. He is very low-maintenance, loveable and good company. He is trained enough to know to stay on the front yard and is incredibly well potty trained. I love him to pieces but I am starting...

Hi there, I very recently go my new 8-week-old Poochon pup. (I've had him four days now). He's slowly starting to toddle away from me to play (which is great!) but my main issue is that I have to leave him alone for four hours a day in a puppy play pen. He has tonnes of room and crate with...

I just want to know if what I am doing is correct... We are dog sitting for 10 days. The owners said that the dog has no problem being alone as it is rarely in there house due to a family member having allergies (discovered after they got the dog). They told us that she goes into her crate on...

whenever i pay the accordion or the guitar my puppy "howl/sings" its extremely cute! BUT.. why does she do it? is it against her will? does she not like it? does she like it? she doesn't seem bothered or upset actually pretty interested and happy. ( wagging tale and "smiling") so whys she do it?:p

So I know I have posted this before but we're really desperate for ideas. Zoey *loves* her crate. She runs in there for rewards and is always put away with toys, nylabones/antlers/her root and a stuffed Kong. She will sleep happily in there for hours. The problem is the noise that she will...

We have a three year old beagle who is either hard of hearing or deaf. He can "hear" low noises like when a motorcycle drives by the house, but we are not sure if that is from the vibration or not. We adopted him from a local shelter and love him to pieces. Of course like most beagles he is...

Hello. I've been trying to figure this out for some time and nothing so far has worked. Hoping someone else has had a similar experience and success in "correcting" it. I have a 10 year old yellow lab\short-hair pointer mix. And I have a 4 year old daughter. About 12-18 months ago, his...

I have a 6.5 year old Mastiff/St. Bernard mix, neutered male named Arnold. I adopted him from our local city shelter when he was approx. 12 months. Almost 2 years ago I had a baby. While he has never shown any type of fear, aggression, anxiety etc. toward my son, I am having a very unusual...

Hi everyone, I have an 11 year old West Highland Terrier and maybe about a month ago, he began to start howling and crying at night. He used to always sleep upstairs but after he started doing this he had to stay downstairs because he would keep everyone awake. This has gradually got worse and...

Not me, my dog that is...She's a healthy, loving, 8 year old Rot+Shep+APBT and she howls almost every night. she weighs 95 pounds and has a massive chest, so it sounds like an air-raid siren. She sometimes howls multiple times over one night. She usually wakes up mid-howl, but never gets up- she...

We have three dogs, an older Pug, an older mutt that's mostly Beagle and then a 1yr. old Aussie/Border Collie mix. Currently, the Aussie has seemed to take over the pack since he recently became the biggest and is definitely the most rambunctious, but all three get along great most all the...
