crates work really well, and we dogs actually like being in them once we get used to them.

If you are sure there is no medical reason get her some hard rubber toys. When she begins to chew on something gently remove the forbidden item, tell her ‘thank you’ and hand her one of the acceptable toys. Eventually she’ll get the picture. Good Luck!

Dogs are our best friends therefore having more knowledge about your dogs are essential. Do you know that dogs can break their tails surprisingly easily - all it takes is landing on it at the wrong angle with the dog’s weight in some cases. Other hazards of day-to-day life can cause a break as well car doors, regular doors, gates,you stepping on it - a tail injury is something a dog is going to be at risk for, especially if that breed has a longer tail. You should be aware that if you even suspect a break, you should go to the vet to have it checked out. The tail of a dog has many interlocking bones that are similar to the vertebrae of your spine. The problem is that you need to have any break fixed immediately because the bones will begin to regrow within a few days. If the tail is not set properly, it can be permanently fixed at an odd angle that is disruptive to the dog. As pet lovers , you should always remember this - have dog safe in mind all the time.
It doesn’t sound that bad, but it’s not just about vanity: a way of defecation and urination, causing the dog to soil itself every time it uses the restroom - leaving you to clean up. You may not be able to tell whether you dog broke its tail. But there are some obvious signs such as pain, crying, sensitivity to the touch at a spot on the tail, or it look bent. The dog might also be unable to wag the tail or move it properly. However, dogs can break their tails in ways that do not cause these symptoms. If you are from a shelter home or your own dog has any kind of serious trauma to the tail it’s best to have it checked out.
Tails can also be dislocated, just like a regular bone, which can cause similar symptoms. Treatments depends on the extent of the injury and on the breed as well. Some vets will want to remove the tail entirely in some cases. In other cases, the break can fixed using surgery or little devices to hold the tail bones into place so they can heal properly. In this case, pet groomers cannot help you.

Dogs are active pets that tend to move and run around a lot especially when they are young and strong, just like our kids at home. They sometimes tend to move into a place so quick that we are unable to stop them. The thing is, we treat them just like our kids and fencing them whole day is not something we want to do. We may have certain place at home which tend to be a little dirty or dangerous for the dogs and looking after them is one big responsibility which we do not want them to fall sick or injured. A dog containment is very useful to limit and control your dog into certain areas of the house.
It may sound a little harmful to pet lovers but it is good to train them especially during their young age to avoid going certain places that might harm them. We would love to see our dogs enjoying and having its own freedom to explore this beautiful world but at the same time, we need to ensure his safety.
There are so many kinds of dog containment being sold out there that you might want to consider looking at. It comes with motorized. electronic or even wireless. It is also available for outdoor or indoor. It is very convenient and easy to set up as most of the dog containment comes portable. There will be a wire to detect your dog’s training collar and it will give your canine by discharging static stimulation.
One of the best advantages of dog containment is that it teaches your dog to stay or move around at specific locations and it is cheaper than building up wooden or metal fences. By installing the dog containment can avoid your dog from stepping or running outside the house. Some dogs are rather stubborn, this will also avoid them from damaging your neighbour’s property. You can also avoid your dog from breaking glasses or pulling the table cloth.
Scat Mats is one of the unique dog containment that keeps your dog away from your favorite furniture or tables. Dogs especially puppies tend to leave scars on those furniture. Scat Mats is also effective for your chairs or sofas and there will be a mild static stimulation emits and training them that the particular thing is not meant for them.
Dog containment are not recommended for a long period of time, at certain point when your dog begin to understand and realized that certain location and things are not for them and you think they are ready to move by themselves without getting hurt or making you mad, then its time to take off the containment.

Humans and dogs often have connection with each other…. I still remember the day when I first step into a new college, confuse with my surroundings, not getting used to the culture and people here, hardly have any friends, it was a disaster.
Then I started making friends, turn out to be the first person who I really talk to after that few weeks. It is quite weird at first but after a while, we realized that we click! The best part, we both love dogs. I used to have 3 dogs at home and she’s in love with her Beagle at home name Skippy….
College life wouldn’t be fun without her, I am not a good person in expressing words but when she told me she really wanted a dog here to play and stay with her, I thought that I could come out with a plan! We search for dogs, from free to dogs worth at least 2k.
Finally, i found this cute little puppy which is a Beagle too and I told her about it.. Turns out to be, she love it too….Trust me, this little puppy is super cute… I got her family and a few friends to share this cute puppy for her birthday!
This adorable little puppy, COOKIE came and it brings us all joy. It wasn’t easy, a young puppy which is not toilet train tend to pee and poo everywhere and it does make us all crazy. The good thing is, COOKIE is very intelligent. For such as young puppy, which is only 6 week when she arrived on 14 September, she managed to learn the word SIT and BOW! Cookie will sit or bow each time when we give her a threat or snack. Cookie is a very active Beagle. But she tend to get tired easily too, she sleeps a lot!
Cookie eats very fast and it does worry us so we tend to give her small portions to avoid indigestion. As days pass, we trained Cookie to pee on the newspaper and she managed to learn to pee on the newspaper but she still poo everywhere. Cookie’s progress after 3 days being with us was shocking, she can bark very loud and I was excited when she learned the word JUMP!
My friend who is the officially owner now was overwhelmed; she bought her a collar, and dresses her up! She brought Cookie back to JB and her Beagle (Skippy) at home, welcomes Cookie and they both get along pretty well! I’m still waiting for Cookie to come back so that I can train and play with her!
ANNOUNCING THE WINNER
FUNNY DOG VIDEO CONTEST SEPTEMBER 2009
I am an 9 year old Min-Pin. I’m from Pittsburgh, PA where I live with my mommy. When I was 6 months old I had
to have heart surgery to help control my Pulmonic Stenosis. I had it done at the Ohio State Veterinary Clinic in Columbus, OH. They
were very nice there but I still hate going to the vet. I’m always afraid they will poke me with needles. I have to take medicine
everyday, twice a day, but I do not let that stop me from having the time of my life. I am a little smaller than regular Min-Pins
because I was the runt but that’s okay, my mommy still loves me just as much. I love to play fetch, go for walks, and I especially
love car rides. My mom loves to cuddle with me on the couch and she even spoils me and lets me sleep in the bed.
Meantime, teach kid its first word… SIT
DONT EVER NEVER GIVE IN. They will know . Give in once, twice… you are their slave forever and ever

I love Koalas. I was so excited when I visited the zoo in Sydney, Australia recently. I have always wanted to cuddle Koalas.
Finally, I am looking at the koalas live, right in front of my face.. but as you can see on this video, I did not get to cuddle or carry or touch the koalas because the koala which is for the public to cuddle on that happens to be at the top of the tree and refused to come down. Normally, the caretaker of koalas , they wont catch the Koalas and bring them down because this will frighten the koalas.
Therefore, I left feeling sad because I cannot carry the koalas but I am also happy because I have seen it live…
