Does it hurt the dog to have them spayed or neutered?

Having a dog spayed or neutered will cause some discomfort for a few days but keeping the dog still (lying down) will help prevent pain and the Vet can give you pain medication for your pet if he or she seems to be very uncomfortable. The discomfort is short lived and after a few days your dog will be back to his or her old self, without the risk of bringing more puppies into this over populated planet.

Can you give your dog Excedrin?

No, Excedrin has the same active ingredient as Tylenol and is very dangerous to dogs. Dogs are exceptionally sensitive to the side effects of human pain medications (Tylenol, Excedrin, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, aspirin, acetominophen, ibuprofen, etc) and you can cause a fatal stomach ulcer with them pretty easily. If you believe your dog would benefit from pain medication, you need to schedule an appointment with your veterinarian. There are safe and relatively cheap drugs to help control mild to moderate pain in your dog, but you can only get them with a veterinary prescription.


How do you get your dog to potty or poop in his own yard?

One method would be to fence the yard in which you would like the dog to relieve himself. If the dog is not allowed the ability to leave the yard, he will not have the ability to defecate in your neighbor's lawn. If your zoning laws prohibit an actual fence, there is such a thing as a virtual dog fence. In essence it is a dog collar with a small device that causes the dog some mild discomfort when he passes a boundary. This will discourage a dog from leaving your yard. A third option is to install a dog-run wire. You attatch the dog's leash to a roller that rolls along a guide wire, which keeps the dog in your yard and out of your neighbor's.
