ya, it's a baby and babies sleep a lot. but my age 6 months it should not sleep ALL the time. another reason for excessive sleeping is worms. has she been wormed yet/ if not it is vital, since all puppies are born with worms. it makes them want to sleep in a dark place. you can get worming meds at any pet store. A healthy puppy generally plays hard (racing around, acting goofy, playing with toys or attacking another pet playfully or even you.) Then they will go for a good nap and start all over again. It's a good idea to take your puppy to the vets for a good physical and perhaps get worm pills should this be the case.
The hinky pinky word for noisy young canine would probably be a yuppy puppy. To yip or yup is the sound that a puppy would make when it gets excited or wants something.
Usually kittens will get on better when introduced with a new puppy than a mature cat, but if this happens its easiest to give the cat and dog their separate spaces and let the cat decide when it wants to meet the puppy, or at the very least just tolerate it.Added: Because the cat was there first you must establish the role of the puppy. To the cat the puppy is low, and depending on your relationship with the cat, either you or the cat follow. Always show the cat FIRST affection. That is when the puppy and cat are in the same room, coo and pat the cat first then the puppy. Ignore if the puppy tries for your affection. A puppy right now wont understand exactly but the cat does. in time the puppy will realise the cat gets first priority, this makes the cat happy and also understand that you have accepted the puppy into your group. In time the cat should too. If the cat hisses at the puppy don't punish the cat and don't grab for the puppy, this is seen as you defending the puppy and the sudden movement of the puppy may cause the cat to react aggressively. if the cat swipes the puppy, again do not interfere. The cat is showing the puppy the ranks. Animals will not normally harm extensively a baby animal being introduced to the famil group. As an owner of 8 cats and having to introduce one puppy and 1 yearling dog to them, I have watched first hand the reactions cats make. The biggest order of business to them is: Rank.
A dog will sleep wherever it is used to sleeping, but it is best to make sure the dog has a comfortable spot to sleep, and in the winter, a warm place.
Hi, Firstly the cost of buying a puppy is not always related to the size of the puppy when fully grown. You will always pay more for a pedigree puppy than you would a cross/mongrel as with a pedigree puppy you will have the 'pedigree' (which is like a 5 generation family tree including both sides of the sir & dam). You could pay for example £250 plus for a puppy no matter what breed your looking for. It all depends on these factors: 1: pedigree/crossbred 2: location of puppy e.g breeder/re-homing centre 3: male/female 4: champion lineage in pedigree 5: breeder wants to recoup their costs e.g make a profit 6: how much competition breeder has 7: How much you are willing to spend
This really depends on the age and general health of the Cocker Spaniel. A lot of dogs sleep most of the day away because they have nothing else to do. If your dog is a puppy, then yes, it is very natural for he/she to sleep a lot because he/she is still growing!! (Babies sleep a lot, too, it's just how it goes!) If your dog is older or a 'senior' dog (most dogs over the age of 7 are considered to be "senior dogs"), then this, too, is also pretty common. If your dog is past puppy stage, still pretty young (2 to 5 years old), and is normally active but suddenly seems very tired and only wants to sleep-- you may want to get it checked out at a vet. He might not be feeling very well. Otherwise, he might just be plain bored and has nothing else to do. Try playing with him/her every day, go for a walk, and see if the energy level increases. ----M. Embree Also it might be pregnant. --Edit--- I suppose it being pregnant is possible if the dog is female and has not been spayed, and has been around an un-neutered male while she was in heat. But most people are not that irresponsible, unless they are trying to get the dog to breed.
At that age you can start him on adult dog food.
he wants this one guy but the guy doesnt want him at all and Adam is soo upset
Allergic reaction to something. Take him to a vet for diagnosis.
your body just wants to shut down because it doesnt know what to do. it especially doesnt help when you usually get enough sleep and then suddenly you just stop sleeping for a while. also not just your body wants to shut down but so does your mind. im sure youll feel tired, if not exhausted. youll seem draggy.
Yes, the puppy wants to play with the cat.
cause it wants to
Chuck Norris does not sleep as sleeping makes him open to attack.
Let your puppy drink as often as it wants to, it's not going to drink for the sake of it - the puppy will drink because it needs to.
Slim has the Puppy that Lennie Wants, that George Promised him to replace the dead mouse.
He doesnt return calls, he doesnt say he will do what he says. He maybe interested but he wants to continue to have his options open. He probably likes you but he doesnt want a relationship. He wants to play the field. He wants to be able to date you, be with you, and others too.
Because he wants to make a good first impression but later on doesnt really care! xx
not really. if a boy wants to play it he can
