I thank you all for the reponses. I'm just worried about the old boy and now knowing it's pretty common lesses the worry. He is schduled to get vet checked on the 11th for a tumor on his back and one above his anus. I have a 12 year old dog and he doesn't have any so I got worried when I found...

I asked this on another site, but I'm wondering how common tumors are on older dogs, about 10 years or more? Thanks, Chrissy

Enjoy it! LOL I have 3 that do the zoomies. While it's funny to watch, it's not funny when things fall and the cats get involved. *sigh* It turns into a mess.

Thanks for the tips! I've noticed Willie is attached to Porkchop in a bad way. He doesn't care if Jewel goes off somewhere but let Porkchop go somewhere without him and he whines, cries, yells, screams and acts like he's dying. Ahh, the joys of puppies. We had a home lined up for Willie but...

Well, not really. More like run and fling themselves at me. I'm not sure how to curtail this behavour. What I've been doing is when they take a flying leap at me, I put a hand out about chest high (to them) and they stop then sit. I praise for the sit. Been doing this for a week now and they...

Well, I kept Mom away for the night and yesterday Jewel was walking around fine on her front leg. She has an appointment tomorrow at 11:15 a.m to have her back legs checked out. I hope it's something that will be fixable. Thanks for the help.

This morning I went to check on the pups and noticed Jewel limping. She is having issues with her back legs as it is and the vet hopes she'll grow out of it. Anyway, her little foot is swelled up. (front, right) I checked it for any marks and didn't find any. I didn't find any wounds or anything...

Anyone here heard of it/use it? I just heard about it today and had to scratch my head. I mean, my Chow-Chow uses the cats' litter box only because my cat "taught" him how. And let me tell you, that's a sight to see and a mess to clean. Yes, Bear is housebroken in case you wonder. LOL But...

When is a good age to introduce water and bathing?

I'm in your shoes. This is creepy. LOL We just got the pups wormed and they just turned 4 weeks. It took this long to get the vet to worm them. Mom was supposed to have been wormed already. Of course, someone lied to me about that one. Had to wait to see the actual worms come out before we got...

Females can get pregnant right after they give birth, oddly enough. But, since she hasn't been with a tom after birth, she's not pregnant. Without a tom, it's not possible. I would, however, get her into a vet as soon as you can just to be safe. She could just be putting on weight now that she...

I'm a member there, too. Maxy is the one who got me over to here, though.

Nevermind. LOL I had my hubby sit down and look it over this morning. We think we have it figured out. Thanks!

From someone who has just walked in your shoes (my bitch whelped about 4 weeks ago) I can say it is a ton of work, worry, vet visits, money and stress. I would have spay/aborted in a heartbeat if I could have. I couldn't because it would have comprimised Shortys health since she was too far...

That's alright! By the way, you have beautiful dogs! Thank you! At least I know to stop looking for a curl. Just the tip of PCs tail has a small curl to it. As for the eyes, will PC have 2 different colored eyes when they change? Sine she has the odd eye out, I'm just wondering.

Ya'll are gonna get so tired of me. LOL This question is about the tail curl. If the tail is going to curl like a Husky, what age would that be? Thanks. Edit to add: What age does the eye color change? Jewel and Willy both have bright blue eyes but PC has one bright blue and one really...

For some reason my brain isn't wrapping around what they have as a feeding ammount. I was thinking of switching the puppies to this Castor & Pollux Natural Ultramix Puppy Formula. Can someone help me (ok, tell me in plain English. LOL) how much I would be feeding of this until the pups are...

She's fed 3 times a day. A mixture of both wet and dry Puppy food. She has breakfast, lunch and dinner. LOL By the time dinner rolls around, she doesn't eat everything in her bowl but she does get a late night "snack" just in case she's hungry again. The wet is a 13.5 ounce can and the dry...

Mom goes out in the yard for breaks and she gets walks, too. Usually I feed her on one side of the room and the pups on the other so I can keep an eye on everyone at once. I can say Shorty is enjoying her freedom from the pups and is reluctant to go back with them. When she comes into the house...

I don't know where to put this, so, if I have the wrong area, please move it and I apologize. My question is, I was feeding Shorty this evening around her pups. I didn't think anything of it as she's been real good with them regarding her food. Tonight, however, she tried to snap Porkchops...
