I got a new neighbor in my apartment and their dog is a bit of a yapper, and every time we leave the apartment the new dog goes off. My dog is pretty used to apartment living and doesn't usually react (especially after the previous neighbor was a puppy howler) but he's starting to bork under his breath at the new dog when it goes off.
Any ways: That's two neighbor dogs who are less polite than my good boy. Thank you for listening.

When should I be worried that my dog is getting too 'snappy' at puppies at the park? He's a tad more agressive than I'd like when correcting them as part of like a 4 month process to warm up to them. (We live in an apartment building, so he's going to be exposed to them either way)

A pup pup or an adult pup?

E: either way, I recommend a gentle leader and having leashed interactions until you get the behavior where you are comfortable.

He's 4, I'm just worried I'll have to stop taking him to the park if he scares off all the other dogs.

Today a woman tried to let her murder beast into my apartment's communal dog park and I just shouted at her to "Get hosed" for five minutes until she got away from the entrance so we could leave.
Sorry, I'm just mad about it.

What’s a murder beast?

A bad dog that already attacked my dog once before. Took a tuft of fur off his face and my dog goes into a panic any time she and her murderbeast are around.

Brisket has been excessively active the last few nights, up and playful a good hour past his bedtime, so tonight we broke out the Good Treato: A bully stick.
And he's currently been whining for the last 10 minutes because he's very worried he won't be in the correct spot when he eats it.

Story time: Today in our morning walk Brisket saw one of his pals out on a walk and didn't react soi thought nothing of it as I waved to the other owner. Then I'm getting ready to take him across the street as we do in our normal morning walk and he refuses. He demands to go in the direction his friend went so we walk over to the apartment dog park and I let him in.
We're alone and he keeps going by the gate and I tell him that his friend isn't coming they have their own walk.
Except he did come because apparently he was doing the exact same thing and demanding to turn around so he could play with Brisket!
These loving dogs.

My wife and I were watching TV past Brisket's bedtime and he came to the door and stared at us angrily before walking away. He wasn't mad, just disappointed.

I often put a blanket on my dog and just make ghost noises as he walks around for a few steps before just stepping on the blanket and it falls off. Then I take a picture of him wrapped as a granny.

Is blue buffalo bad for dogs? It seems like it's done Noa good but a coworker said his vet steered him away from getting it, saying it's not good for a dog's heart. I've never heard that before.

I keep hearing that grain free diets might actually be bad in the long run.
Which makes sense, your dog isn't a wolf, he's a domesticated house pet.
But also he is a wolf, so maybe?
No one is spending the money to find out.

REMINDER TO DOODLE PARENTS: It's cold outside so your doggy is probably fluffy and sometimes poop sticks to fluff and then your dog jumps on the bed and sits down and now there is poop smeared on your bed.

is there a best crate for a larger sized dog? we have been approved to adopt a 1yo chocolate lab, and I guess he likes crates, so we want to get a crate for him, but I'm not sure what the best for price one would be.

Most crates come with a divider or something that lets you section off part of the crate to make it fit the dog better.
For example, my dog is average sized (45 lbs) so when he outgrew his puppy crate we bought one off one of my friends for her big ol grayhounds, but I have about a fourth of it walled off so that it fits him curled up.

Anyone else's dog just stare at the door while waiting for the vet? Both Bonnie and Gigi do, independently of having ever seen the other do it :thunk:

Brisket does and then turns to me and lets out his "You need to do something for me" whine/growl.
He hates the vet and knows the door is the way out.

Brisket went with us to my uncle's for the super bowl and he did his thing where he spent the whole time just being active and refusing to relax ever. So today I'm treated to a very snuggly doggy today.
Pic from yesterday of him watching us and wondering why we're not engaged in constant play

We moved last weekend and Brisket is in his first home with carpeting!
Which means there's now a sleeping dog in the way if I'm not careful leaving the bedroom.
