What else can I help you with?

Will buying a new dog affect the dog you have now?
It depends on the dog that you have now. Is it aggressive to other animals? I have a three year old dog and just got a puppy that was only four months and they were a little snippy around each other at first, but after about a week they got along, they are playing together now like they have been together for years. Take your dog around other dogs and see how it acts. If it is to aggressive I would not get another one. Just make sure you give them the same amount of attention and love or your older dog might get jealous and end up hating the new dog.

Should you neuter a golden retriever?
Yes, because all dogs should be neutered to avoid puppies that have the potential of not finding homes. If you look on petfinders.com you will see that there are hundreds of animals without homes.

Are pit bull dogs aggressive?
No, they are like any other dog. If taught to be mean or abused then they will grow to be agrressive. They are not people aggressive unless taught to be. I have one who lives with 3 cats and another dog. My cats are more aggressive than he is. I will say he is the most loyal loving dog I have ever owned. I will never own another breed now because of him. Do not believe the media hype. I was scared of the breed but was open minded enough to take in this puppy. I have changed many minds with my dog. Anyone who was previously scared because of the breed now love my dog.
Our lab has always been an outdoor dog-never chained or kenneled. He disappeared for a few days and the people that had him called us. They had been keeping him inside-now he won't stay home.?
A responsible dog owner that loves and cares for his dog will keep the dog confined. A fenced in yard makes for a good owner or a chain link dog run with a nice warm dog house inside to protect the dog from the weather. A good dog owner does not let his or her dog run loose, he can get into fights, urinate & defecate on neighbors lawns & plants, produce unwanted puppies if not neutered, get hit by a car, etc. Keep your dog confined somewhere and he will be safe. Why let him run loose? That is just irresponsible. Get him neutered if you haven't already.

When can a female dog be neutered?
You can get your female dog spayed as early as 6 months of age. It is a good idea to get her spayed before her first heat as the occurrence of breast cancer later on is greatly reduced to almost 0. Some Veterinarians are now saying the larger breeds should wait until they are around 14 months old, to allow for bone growth and maturing of the urethra. Ask your Veterinarian. Do not spay her in heat though.
