I was wondering if dogs grieve? We just lost Houdini last week and Myles has seemed to be so lost. He wonders around the house looking for Houdini and seems so sad. They have spent their whole lives together up until now and we are not sure what to do. Can anyone give me some advice or tips...

I just wanted to let everyone know that had prayed for myself and Houdini that he passed away last Thursday night. He was at home and it was very quick, my husband believes he didn't die from kidney failure but from a heart attack. My husband buried houdini in our backyard under a tree our son...

This is referring to a dog peeing on a human's bed. My Pinky did that, we cought her in the act and she got in big trouble, I held her by the scruff and told her what a bad girl she was, then I crated her for 2 hours, let her out and would not give her any attention for another hour, she...

Well the vet called me back tonight and said Houdini is in Kidney Failure. I was hoping someing here could tell me if there is anything I can do? The vet says he isn't in any pain, is that true? She says he only has weeks? I'm so upset, sick to my stomache and heartbroken. We've never had...

Our older yorkie fellow seems to be losing weight fast. We began to notice a slight weight loss a week or so ago and then as of this weekend it seems to be alot. I'm guessing he has gone from 10lbs. to 5 lbs... He is eating the same, drinking the same and acting the same. We do have a vet...

I posted in the grooming forum a question about my yorkie girl. She was groomed on Saturday and since then, has scratched, lick, rubbed across the carpet her little private part (woo hoo)... I was wondering if we could put something on it at home? I know if it was my daughter when she was...

We took our baby yorkie girl to the groomers on Saturday, the same groomer she's gone to for 2 years. Well, since coming home on Saturday she has been licking and biting down there and spreading her legs to sit in the cold grass. We thought it was because she was shaved too close but when we...

Well I stopped by the petstore (pets plus) to purchase dog food and as always I check on all the puppies in the cages. This time they had a 7 month old yorkie female. I couldn't believe my eyes... They said her owner had a stroke and the family was going to sell her to a breeder as breeding...

I wanted to comment in regards to owning mulitple dogs and the cost associated with this. I have been reading alot of threads where people are considering getting another dog but are worried about the additional cost. Well I'm here to tell you it can get quite expensive. For instance: 1)...

Alright, I have been reading the 300 and some posts in regards to positive reinforcement and understand that not everyone has success doing the same things. Here is my situation and I really would like your thoughts or experiences... We got Cocoa Anne @ 9 weeks (yorkie), we had her for 4...

We have a new addition to our home, he is a 12 week old pekepoo puppy. He's a pet store puppy that was bought on impulse by a co-worker (why I'll never know after all the preaching I've done) and then decided it was too much work. Anyway, we are crate training like we did Cocoa and this little...

I just posted under another thread that was going in regards to our new pup having worms but I thought I would start a new thread. We have only had him less than a week now and he has had soft stools since the 2nd day, I contributed this to switching him from Pro Pac to Canidea.. Well last...

Hi all... I just had the 2 adopted yorkie boys nails trimmed Tuesday night, they were quite long (the vet did them) anyway, as of late yesterday Houdini has been favoring his front left paw and is doing the same today. He is also walking like he's 100 years old. could this be from having his...

Well you guys, Cocoa is being a b**** to Myles and he is so passive and won't get her back. She attacks him and grabs his ears and throws them around like an old sock. He just runs for one of us to pick him up. We have yelled at her and everything and she just won't leave him be. We take her...

I need serious advice, suggestions, experiences whatever. The 2 new boys we adopted are pooping in their crate continuosly at night. We have had them for 9 nights now and at least 4 of those nights they pooped in the crate and last night my son decided to let them sleep in his bed hoping that...

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on Natural Balance versus Candiea? We have both at home that our 6 month old wouldn't touch and was wondering about trying it on the 8 yr old boys we adopted... From what I've read it has to be better than Nutro which is what the rescue lady...

As you all know we have 2 yorkie boys believed to be 8 years old... I am getting alot of great feedback on food based on them not having many teeth but there is some discrepancies on if they should have senior food. We were told they both could stand to gain a couple pounds since when you pet...

Hi guys, we just adopted 2 older yorkie boys (believed to be 8 years old).. I would like to know what you all recommend feeding them? They both are missing most of their teeth. We are feeding our 6 month old yorkie Solid Gold puppy and she seems to like it, but I'm sure we shouldn't feed an 8...

Hi everyone, just wanted to share that we adopted 2 new furbabies this weekend. They are brothers about 8 years old both missing alot of teeth. They are both yorkies like our little Cocoa so it is so cute seeing all 3 of them follow each other around. The only problem we are having is Cocoa...
