What is the best type of bed for a chihuahua?
I use a cat kennel for my little girl. It has closed sides, so she feels safe when she is in her "Bed". When she takes something she isn't supposed to have, she gives herself up because she runs for her bed, and then looks out to see if anyone has noticed. Usually she sleeps beside my head on my pillow (not my idea). Once I drift off she joins me there. Most of the time she will sleep by my feet, she feels close and comfortable. If she dozes through the daytime or if we have company, she will go to her bed and sleep. She feels safe there, and then if I go out and can't take her with us...I lock her inside and she usually just goes to sleep.
Is mixing flea medications harmful?
Mixing flea medications can be harmful as different products may contain overlapping ingredients or active compounds that could lead to toxicity or adverse reactions in pets.

Soak the area well with running water or sprinkle baking soda lightly over the area to neutralize the odor. (this will not hurt the grass) it will wash away during the next rain.

How do you get rid of dog flea?
There are topical coat sprays and prescription applications (some contain fipronil and require only once-monthly application). Flea and tick shampoos range from limited-use, active shampoos, to milder medicated ones, to simple citrus-containing dishwashing liquids (which will drown adult fleas and repel new ones). A flea or tick collar is another alternative to topical applications, and all treatments should include reducing the fleas in the house, yard or other living areas.
How do you stop a dog from pooping in their sleep?
You need to make sure they do their business before they sleep, if they still go poo in their sleep you should wake them up quickly after it has happened. also take them outside for a while and tell them they should go potty outside. Don't ever punish your dog for going potty on the floor. It's your responsibility to take the dog outside every hour, soon they will get the picture.
Another answer
If it's just a few little poop's you may need to adjust the fiber content in your dogs food. Feed your dog four to five hours before bed time and take them out before bed and let them stay out a little longer before they are allowed to come in. It could also be the dog passing gas and a few little poop's slip out, it happens. If adjusting the fiber content doesn't work, and letting them spend more time outside doing their business doesn't either, it may be time to call the vet.
What is the best ground surface for a dog run?
Many prefer sand as it drains well and won't become muddy. Some use pea stone but if you have a dog that eats rocks or stone that could be a problem. If your dog likes to dig you will need to put block or some other solid material around the perimeter to keep the dog from digging under. Concrete is also a option but can be hard on a dogs joints depending on the breed and size of the dog. Concrete is easy to clean, hose down and they can not dig. It will also keep their nails filed down nicely.

Does Avoderm dog food contain persin found in avocados and toxic to dogs?
I feed my dog the Avoderm Chicken and rice formula and have had no problems. It has helped with his allergies and he loves it! Here is a link to their website which discusses the safety issues and how they deal with them http://www.breeders-choice.com/dog_products/avoderm-natural-and-avocado-safety.htm
===================================================
The above link is anecdotal and misinforms. Persin is found in fruit and is oil soluable so it will be found in higher concentration in the oil than the whole fruit. Just because no problems are noticed doesn't mean the length and quality of life are not affected. No one knows how the poison works or what the toxc amounts are or whether the effects add up over time. Decreased exercise capacity may be attributed to age when it could be the cumuative effect of avacado oil exposure. I think it's foolish to feed a poison to your dog when no one knows the long term effects. See the discussion.

Is it safe to buy dogs online?
Be very careful about buying any dog anywhere. Investigate to make sure the dog doesn't come from a puppy mill. Check out who you are buying from as much as you can. If you want a pure bred make sure it comes from a reputable breeder. You might want to consider getting a 'pup' from a no-kill facility that needs a home instead of having breeders making more dogs. If the person you are buying from checks out, you are pretty safe getting your pooch...but you should get a return policy in case the pup doesn't work out with your situation.
Does punishment always improve behavior?
sometimes if the person bein punished has a concience and realizes wat he or she has done is wrong.
but in circumstances like if he believes that he didnt do anything wrong or he exceeded effort to do things right but the situation turned out badly for some ironic reason,can possibly make him take things negatively.and as i meant with "negatively" is grudge that may lead to revenge.
the bottomline is that it always depends in the situation if he deserves the punishment and he is aware of what he's done wrong then it could possibly IMPROVE the behavior...but if his side was not clearly understood ,it may only WORSEN the behavior. self- destructive behavior is the main possible cause.
