  • Re: Vaccinating your own pet?

    I used to, years ago when I operated a horse farm. It is not difficult to administer shots but I would speak with your vet about it and see if they are willing to train you. Also be aware that it is possible for a dog to have an adverse reaction to a shot. Are you prepared to handle this if the situation...

  • Re: Pottying in house or in crate!

    Your friend needs to go back to the beginning and treat the dog as you would a puppy just learning. Take them out often and give them a word or phrase such as "go potty" or "hurry up" and when the dog pees reward them (I would use food in this case) and run straight back inside. The...

  • Scottie with allergies

    I have a 1-1/2 year old Scottish Terrier - Hagan Winston Connor - that has allergies. He is a house pet with limited outdoor time.

  • Suddenly peeing in same area inside

    I have a 1-year-old dog. She was easily "potty" trained. The process was/is to let her out into the backyard; out the door, down a flight of stairs, onto the grass. That was going well. Several months ago she was spayed. During the recovery time we would let her out through the front door to...
