How do you stop a puppy from biting when other toys don't work?

I just went through this myself with a little male Cockapoo x terrier. He's a sweet dog, but chewed and could even be pretty rough if I played with him. There are babies so I went out and got a HARD BABY SOOTHER and put it in the freezer for 15 minutes and then gave it to him. He love it and chewed on it for long lengths of time! It soothed his gums and gave him something to bite on. WARNING: Be sure you don't get the soothers that are soft and have water or other liquid in them. The hard rubber ones with flexible points are the ones to get. It's important you get on the floor and play with your pup. Whether puppies or adult dogs they love you to get down on the ground at their level and my husband and I still do that with our 2 dogs usually in the evening. Teach him/her to play ball, rub it's tummy, constantly tell it he/she is a good boy or girl and give a lot of encouragement. Slippers, pillows, etc., are out of bounds and if the pup is insistent then tap him/her on the nose with two fingers (not too hard) and say "shame!" They get the message loud and clear. Playing with your pup keeps their little minds active and away from destroying your furniture, shoes, etc. Puppies need to go to the bathroom approx. 15 - 20 minutes after drinking or eating so if you miss it and they make a mistake give yourself a kick in the butt and don't scold the pup. I use both paper (for emergencies) and outside I never leave my puppy alone outside until he is a bit older) and it works well. Praising your dog for the good he/she does is most important and don't forget ... play and give the pup lots of love and security. You are the boss!

Why teach my puppy to use puppy pee pads instead of just going outside?

It depends if you have cold weather and you have a small dog. The dog might not want to go outside into the really cold weather. That's why people would use the pee pad. Going outside you need to teach them to let you know when the go to go. My opinion you might want to teach the puppy both so when its to cold to go outside it can use the pee pad.

Why won't your male breed with the female you have They are both 2?

Most males will breed a female at any age if she is in heat. Dogs don't have self-imposed time restraints. Males as young as 5 or 6 months have sired litters, possibly younger. A female can be impregnated on her first heat, which can happen as young as 6 months (again, possibly younger). Most responsible dog breeders will not breed dogs before the age of 2 for various reasons. That is the minimum age for checking a dog's health with the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. (Offa.org) It is considered to be a safe age, health-wise; not too young, not too old. Also, by that age, most females have gone through 2 or 3 heats, so you know if their cycles are regular or not.

Is it safe to breed your 8month old oston terrier after her first heat?

I would not advise breeding from a Dog until she has had at least two seasons, though the ideal age for breeding is three years old. At 8 months old, your Dog is still very much a puppy and as such is still growing. If your Dog was to become pregnant before she had finished growing, all of her vital nutrients for growth would go to her unborn puppies instead, meaning that her growth may be stunted. There is also an increased risk of complications if the Dog is allowed to breed too young.

What is a Chiweenie?

A Chi weenie is a mixed breed between a chihuahua and a dachshund. These dogs only get about 5-10 pounds and 8 inches tall, but crossed with a standard dachshund and they can be bigger. A Chiweenie is no better, or worse, with children than a dachshund or chihuahua. Some claim that it is a dachshund with less of a predisposition to back problems, but they fail to admit it can also be a chihuahua more predisposed to back problems. The genetic history is just as important with hybrids as any other dog that someone chooses to breed.

It is always wise to do your research before buying any animal, so you can choose what is right for you, and what is right for the animal. Always research what a motive should be behind a breeding, as the breeder should behave as though they are responsible for each dog they breed for the rest of their lives, and the rest of all the progeny's lives. Very few of these "cross breeder" are responsible, so proceed with caution.

Staff dog which is two years old and she bites her feet till they bleed what causes this?

Dogs that do this mean there is something in between her toes and it bothers her. Try opening her toes up and get it out. Sometimes dogs do this because they have fleas.

Our golden retriever was doing this for a couple of months. He was treated for staph and a few other infections, as well as checked over quite well for something stuck in the pads. After going through this for some time, we found out that he had food allergies. The vet can do a quick test to find out what foods your dog is allergic to, and you can switch him to a food that does not include those ingredients. It takes a little over a month for it to clear up after you switch them.
