Interesting article. I've sent it on. That looks to be the issue. So it more than likely isn't a breeding issue? I found the breeders response very un-informative, and if it was my dog that I paid this much for, I'd be beyond upset...seemed to give the big brush off. Thank you all for your...

Thanks for the replies. She feeds him Maxium Nutrition Puppy Food. (but she has only had him for <2 weeks) Also, she informed me this morning that it is not only when he plays with her other dogs, it is pretty much all the time that he does this. He will be nice and straight and all the...

My best friend recently purchased a 10 week old purebred Pit Bull puppy. A couple of days ago she noticed that his front legs were bowing out. She says it's either one or the other front leg, or both. She thinks he gets way more excersize at her house than he did at the breeder, but is that...

Real quick update, before I head to work. At the advice of Zoom (ty) we did not allow Sarge to sleep with us last night. He got his blankie next to our bed. There was very little whining, and he went to sleep. However, when I went up to use the rest room, I stepped over part of him, and he...

Thanks for your reply. A couple things in response; just to clarify, my hubby doesn't go around hitting the dog, just in that instance he said it was a knee-jerk response, and he is attempting to change that response as he also knows it is not the right thing to do!! I know you didn't...

Hey there! pretty dog!! Is this the dog that will be coming into the house? How old is he? I only have experience in this once, and that is with the Saint Bernard who we currently have in the house. He came from being solely outside, at a farm to inside with us. He only had one accident...

Hey everyone. I have yet another question about Sarge and what do to with him. For those who may not recall, I posted a thread about him biting my child. Sarge is now 11 weeks old. New problem, or more of the same. I cannot explain this dog. He is sooo wonderful most of the time, and...

An Update on Sarge: He's doing better. We have definitely implemented the NILIF program in the household. He's stubborn, but is getting the hint that he can be stubborn all he wants. He won't get till he gives. We're working on teaching him the "down" command also. He sits well. One...

Oh that's aweful! Boy, you don't hear of many basset hounds attacking people!!

Thanks everyone!! Yeah, they're a good group of dogs. Keep me on my toes, that's for sure! :) Amanda, yeah, photography is a hobby of mine. Thanks for the compliment.

Thank you so much everyone! I knew you guys would be able to help me!! Ok, so I am going to try what was suggested. I agree, if it's rude to put your face in a dogs face, we should not do it, however - as someone stated - with kids you can never guarantee that it won't ever happen, so he has to...

First is Lady: She is the matriarch of the family. We got her at 8 weeks old, and she is now almost 6 years old. Next is Teddy. We rescued him from a farmer who had enough of his chicken eating!! He was minutes away from a bullet. We've had him a little over 2 years. He is currently...

Two weeks ago, I got a mixed breed basset/Catahoula hound mix from a friend of mine. He was 8 weeks old when I got him. He was from a litter of three. He was the most attentive, first out of the crate (when she brought them to meet me) very friendly, curious, not scared at all. I liked that...

Hello, My name is DeAnna, I am a lifelong dog lover. I cannot remember a time in my life when I have not had at least one dog. I recently acquired a new puppy, who I'm having some issues with, but I'm sure with the help of the folks on this board, I can iron them out! Once i find a photo...
