a life less posted:I see that they've posted health test results for a few dogs, but not all of them. If you were to get a puppy through this breeder I would insist on seeing the test results for the parents. I'm not familiar with the breed so I'm not sure what else to require beyond the basics: CERF, OFA. They say they have done health testing but I can't find any of their dogs on the OFA site using their name or registration number so that's a little fishy to me. They could have used Pennhip instead of OFA but they should still have CERF numbers since they say they did eye testing. According to the Samoyed Club of America eye problems and hip dysplasia are things to watch out for so when you're ready to get a puppy be sure to ask for OFA and CERF info on both the parents (and as many relatives as you can stand looking at).

Abbeh posted:Do dogs get eye floaties? Zoso's been chasing invisible bugs all week. He'll look up, snap at nothing, look up more, snap again, etc. We've looked closely at his skin to make sure there are no fleas that could cause this, and if there were fruit flies I'd know because I hate those loving things. He just keeps going and going until I distract him with a treat. What the gently caress Fly snapping with no bugs can be a sign of seizures but if you can distract him with a treat that's probably not it. Could it be dust floating in a sunbeam or something?

For a really shy dog you're going to need to find his favorite thing ever and just take it slow. Do you clicker train? I've had some success free shaping going into and enjoying the crate. Start clicking and treating for looking at the crate, then stepping closer to the crate, then touching the crate until finally he goes into the crate. After that you can start working on duration in the crate. You can do this without a clicker, I just find it easier to use some sort of marker. A word or noise would work fine too. He seems like a sweetheart. Just be slow and patient and he'll catch on. Instant Jellyfish fucked around with this message at 22:58 on Oct 21, 2010 |

I'm having issues with Major in the car and over the 3 months I've had him and worked on it it just seems to be getting worse. It started with just with whining on two lane streets and a little bit on the freeway. I gave him bully sticks to distract him for the 15 minutes it takes to get to the freeway and then treated him for calm, quiet behavior and gradually increased the time between treats. I got up to about 2 minutes of quiet at a time before things started going downhill. It progressed to more, louder whining paired with shrieking and this noise that sounds like someone with emphysema screaming for help with frantic barking when cars passed. Now he tries to lunge at any car he sees while in the car. He has to be in a crate complete covered or he hits the window so hard when any car comes toward us that I'm afraid he's going to hurt himself. He also barks for the first 15 minutes of a ride and then randomly throughout. Its a frantic, yappy bark not his overexcited bark. He still whines or screams almost the whole time. This is clearly an anxious behavior. He's whale-eyed, tight faced, and rapidly panting the whole time. Major loves the idea of car rides and will drag me to the car if he thinks we're going for a ride its just the actually riding that's the problem. He doesn't lunge at cars when we're walking near the road, just in the car. When we finally get where we're going it takes about 20 minutes of focus work and cleaning up gushy poos before we can focus on class or take a hike or whatever. I've tried treating during any second of quiet during a ride, just hanging out in the car and treating for calm, treating for cars passing us while just sitting in a parking lot, treating for cars passing us standing in the yard, thundershirt/TTouch wraps, and DAP diffusers. I've talked to my trainer and she doesn't have any more ideas so I'm not sure if a private session would help. Sorry about the novel. Does anyone have any ideas that I've missed or is it time to talk to the vet about some doggy xanax? I feel bad doping him up to go do fun things but as it is I'm just avoiding taking him places. He's a 2-3 year old hunting dog sort of mix that I adopted 3 months ago if that helps.

He's usually a bit better on the way home. There's less frantic barking the whole time and he doesn't have the runs when we get out but he still does a lot of whining and when he's not doing that I can hear him panting really heavily. I used to use a car harness but he would get tangled and try to gnaw the harness/his foot off like a trapped fox. He liked being able to sniff out the window but its not worth him hurting himself either on the harness or hitting the window going after cars. I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem. I'm stocking up on his favorite chewy things (dehydrated rabbit feet, yum!) and I'll just keep chipping away at it. I have to board him at the vet while I'm off picking up some sheep this week so I'll talk to them then about maybe finding something to keep him under threshold while we're working on it. Someone on a different board suggested melatonin so we'll see what the vet says.

Ginny Field posted:Do you have any good tips on minimizing separation anxiety in a shelter rescue? Neither one of us want to set ourselves up for heartbreak by adopting a dog and then being forced to make a hard decision because it's begun driving the landlords crazy (they live above us.) It's all hypothetical at the moment, as we don't have the dog, but ideally we'd like to wind up with a happy, well-adjusted rescue animal. I would find a rescue that uses foster homes that will guide you to a dog that is already crate trained and comfortable being alone for periods of time. Read up on crate training in the puppy thread and work on making the crate an awesome place to be for a weekend before you have to leave the dog all day. My dog came from his foster home already crate trained and besides a little whining the first couple of nights he's been fine. Make sure your landlord has put that its ok for you to have a dog in writing! Some rescues might also need either a note or to call them to double check that you aren't sneaking the dog in.

Abbeh posted:Uhg, my dog! Zoso tried to bite a guy today - a complete stranger. If the guy hadn't been wearing thick leather gloves, things could have ended very differently. The guy was walking down our street towards us and Zoso got all excited with his tail wagging, so I figured he just wanted to say hi. The guy walked over and Zoso changed from tail wagging excited to all his hair up snarling and growling and lunged at the guy. It's a good thing Zoso's small because I picked him up, apologized and walked away from the guy. Poor Zoso. Its hard to say what the issue might be without being there. A vet behaviorist will definitely help and I've found they are totally worth the money even if it seems like a lot up front. Here's a list of members of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior in MA. You can also check out the list of American College of Veterinary Behaviorists grads. Even if there isn't someone local, someone further out may do phone/video interviews or work with trainers who may be closer.

I don't want keep buying toys he figures out pretty easily, so suggestions on something that'll keep him busy for a while would be appreciated!

Fatty Patty posted:yep they are both fixed. I use the word "fights" but there isn't any growling or blood or anything. Mostly he is trying to establish his dominance in the house and she's not giving up. That's in addition to him wanting to get his freak on. It usually starts with him trying to do her for about an hour, she gets mad, they start rolling and biting at each other's necks (not hard, just trying to show dominance). I guess the dominance stuff will sort it self out, but I reallllly hate that hour or so where he just wants to get it on. For reference, he's been fixed since ~June of last year, she just got fixed in January. Humping is usually a sign of over excitement and uncertainty more than dominance and I doubt its a sexual thing. He just needs to learn that that's not an appropriate way of interacting with his new friend. I would give him a warning when he starts up then if he continues he gets a "too bad" or "oops" then gets removed from the situation either put in a bathroom or in a down-stay or leashed to a piece of furniture or put in his crate for a while. After a minute or two he can try interacting again. The reward for not humping is just being able to continue interacting since that is clearly more rewarding than treats right now. The neck biting sounds just like rough play, not like dominance either. It sounds like they both just need time. Its only been a day, eventually the novelty and excitement will wear off and it will get easier.

Nate405 posted:We're thinking about getting a front clip harness for our dog because we've heard it can help cut down on pulling and it's more comfortable for the dog. Are there any particular brands/types that I should be looking at or are they pretty much all the same? I've tried the Easy Walk (it was all I could find in the pet store at short notice) and the Sense-ation harness. The EW is easier to find and cheaper but I could never get it adjusted just right and the martingale front just made it saggy so I had to clip it on to my dogs collar to keep it from flopping around whenever it got unadjusted for the millionth time. It did work though and it stopped my 75 lb dog from pulling me while we were working on LLW. The Sense-ation I ordered online when it was on sale a month or so ago and I like it a lot better, even though its more expensive. The straps are cushy so no armpit rubbing and it fits a lot better. I haven't had to readjust it even after getting it wet a couple times and I find it easier to get on without trying to remember which buckle goes where. My one issue with it is that the coating on the metal rings has worn off pretty quickly and it stains my dog's chest gray. This may not be a problem if you don't have a white dog and it doesn't bother me enough that I've stopped using it.

Some of their trainers know what they're doing. Some... not so much. You should really sit in on any class you're interested in taking. I've sat in on a number of training groups that say that they're positive only, only to see 4 month old puppies receiving harsh choke chain corrections (one was wearing two chokes at once for some reason) or the trainer dragging dogs to the ground with prongs to teach emergency drops. I wouldn't take my dog to anyplace that wouldn't let me sit in on a class first.

Chaco posted:With splenic masses, sometimes they bleed and make the dog very lethargic and sick, so that may be why he's having ups and downs. I don't know that spleen masses are necessarily painful, but at the very least they are likely uncomfortable, depending on how large it is. My first corgi had a mass on her spleen the size of a softball when she was about 6 and had to have the whole thing removed. She went on to live a pain free, happy couple of years until another mass popped up in the same place and bled out during surgery. Definitely talk to your vet about your options because while its not going to get better on its own, having a splenectomy is not a death sentence to a young dog.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang posted:My question: Would docking the ears improve the life of a dog prone to ear infections? Or is that just not done/wouldn't help? Could it be done before ear infections become a serious problem in a cocker spaniel? Its possible that cropping (docking is tails) the external ears on a cocker would help but I think breeding for less pendulous ears and more moderate ear feathering would probably help more. They can do internal ear surgeries that help dogs with chronic ear infections without messing up the look of the soft, droopy cocker ears.

Crooked Booty posted:If ticks are a regular problem, you might want to ask your vet about a Preventic Collar. People I know who have used them say they get better results than with Frontline Plus, and the collar lasts several months, so one should be enough to get you through the summer. They are intended to actually prevent tick attachment. They're safe to use in combination with topicals, and unlike flea collars, they're actually made by a legit drug company and not sketchy/dangerous. I think you can get them online without a prescription, but it's always a good idea to run things past your vet first. I guess those collars can cause interactions for dogs on psych meds so I avoid them. I don't know what they would do exactly but I don't want to risk it. Major also wears his DAP collar all the time and there's really only so many collars he can wear at a time. KiriI use K9 Advantix 2 which is supposed to repel ticks and biting flies and have had good luck with it. Of course your mileage may vary based on local resistances but if permethrin can safely keep ticks off my baby sheep I trust it on my dog.

StyleFresh posted:Anyone make their own training treats? Any good recipes to make a bunch in bulk? I have a dehydrator and make random jerkies and things with that for training. I do a lot of liver because its cheap ($1.50 for about a lb for me), makes a ton of tiny snacks and I could do it in the oven before I got the dehydrator. Just boil the liver for about 10 mins in water (I just boil it for however long it takes the oven to preheat to 200 degrees) then pat dry, stick on a baking sheet, and bake for 2-3 hours flipping occasionally. Either after boiling or after baking cut into pencil eraser sized pieces. I store mine in the fridge but they seem to be fairly shelf stable and should be fine left out in a sealed bag if you go through them at a reasonable rate. The only problem with the liver snacks is my dog makes me crazy whining while I'm cooking them because he wants them so bad. I also use take the liver water, reduce it down a bit and add a couple of packets of plain gelatin then use it to fill kongs once its chilled and jello-like so I get a lot out of my liver.

Kiri koli posted:Isn't liver really calorie dense? All the pre-made stuff I've looked at says to only feed up to two, pencil eraser sized pieces a day. So I don't use it for training sessions but things like going into her crate or whatever that only happens a few times a day. It can be sort of rich for some dogs but I don't think its particularly calorie dense. My package says that 1 oz is 40 calories and all my treats weigh much less than an oz. I also tend to mix it with meal kibbles to use as training treats so I'm not feeding cups of it at a time. Like anything it depends on the dog. Major gets a bunch because we train a lot but he's also a highly active, large dog and he's very fit. For a dog Psyche's size a couple tiny pieces makes up a much larger part of her total calorie intake.

It mostly is used to sense pheromones and is what causes cats and other animals to make that weird stinkface (flehman response). Also your hound probably has big floppy lips that just flop down when his head is down sniffing and not when he's just walking around.

I felt really awkward about asking the trainer 'what the gently caress did you just do' but I really need to know. She's a positive methods trainer, or so I thought, but that looked really lovely to me. If she had grabbed MY dog by her collar and carried her anywhere I would have gone crazy on her. Yeah, that is some crazy dominance crap that should never be used on puppies. If you continue to go to that class (I wouldn't and I would tell the trainer exactly why) make very sure you never ever hand off your lead to this person. It's your job to be an advocate for your dog so don't feel pressured to do things that make you uncomfortable. tiddlez posted:Puppy not eating. A sudden disinterest in food would get me to the vet real quick with a puppy. If the vet clears him of anything wrong I would stop mixing things in with the food and start giving him meal times with clear beginnings and ends. If he doesn't eat in 15 minutes he can try again the next meal. Dogs generally won't starve themselves and will start eating again when they're hungry. If you start switching foods whenever he's a bit fussy about eating you can train him to be a picky little poo poo. Again, talk to a vet first to make sure he's not sick.

Triangulum posted:How do you break up a dog fight when a pit bull isn't involved? I've had to break up a few dog fights and the method Leerburg describes works the best as long as you ignore anything about e collars and dominance. Make sure you take a breath and assess the situation before charging in. In many fights one dog is starting poo poo and the other just wants out. If you are by yourself getting the one who is the aggressor out and put away somewhere is usually enough to stop the fight. If the dog is grabbing and releasing instead of just gripping and shaking then try to pull it back when it has released to minimize tearing injuries.

I have an appointment later this week to see if its a gum issue or something along those lines but I was wondering if you guys might have any ideas to the cause. Random mouth stinkiness sounds like a tooth or gum problem to me. Can you look around in there and see how things look? Brachycephalic breeds have to cram a lot of teeth into a small area. If it's kind of fishy or poopy smelling it might be a weird anal gland issue. TMI but sometimes when my dog is kind of constipated he gets gross poop breath until he finally goes. Definitely keep your vet appointment and get that checked out. Face infections are no fun for anyone.

Takezio posted:So, I ask you, fellow goons: Do you know how to safely remove fiber-glue from a dog's ears? Gluing ears into "proper" shapes is actually really common in many breeds and as long as it doesn't seem to be causing the pup irritation I would just leave it until it sheds out on its own. Thanks for taking in the poor pup, you're good people.

GenericOverusedName posted:So one of my casual friends (more like an acquaintance really) got an alligator snapping turtle as a pet. I told her it was a loving stupid idea, but she still got it. Some states have laws against owning native wildlife so you could look at your state fish and wildlife website or give them a call to see if its illegal then report them if you wanted. Otherwise just don't get your hands near it.
