How would you guys feel about organizing a meet up to clean some parks or a beach and/or hang out? Bad idea? Horrible idea? We could do it by cities if there's enough people willing to participate.

I have a 9 month old Great Pyrenees (80lbs) and a new puppy that will be 8 weeks old and ready for pick up in mid-February.

My older Pyr has never shown any signs of aggression. She even has a reputation for having a soft spot for smaller dogs and always prefers them during socialization exercises. Speaking of, for what it's worth, she has been well trained and raised. Not some redneck shit dog.

Just the same, I'd like to minimize the risk of deliberate or accidental injury to the smaller dog (I expect it to be in the 20lb range at 8 weeks).

I was thinking of maybe putting on of the dogs in a crate (pic related) or both in their crates side by side. That way they can see, hear, and sniff, but the older can't get close enough to cause a problem.

What is /an/s thoughts?

In case anyone asks, she does still sleep in her crate. She's out in the house all day when awake. (indoor dog).

If my experience means anything, you should be more afraid of the smaller dog causing injury to your bigger (trained) dog. small dogs tend to have napoleon complexes as well as short tempers. maybe its also because people dont expect it. but just watch up for it OP

OP Here.

I guess I used the wrong word. The puppy is another Great Pyrenees. It's only small because of its age. I've seen the same "little-dog complex." Not sure it applies to puppies?
>>
>>2043230
not that anon, but puppies will 100% be more rambunctious than a regular adult small dog.

you know your dog better than anyone else, so if you say your dog has a soft spot for smaller dogs (naturally, as she's a pyr and they have a good protective instinct when it comes to small animals), then you don't need to be too worried.

I say have them meet on "neutral ground"--as in, not in your house, which is your older dog's territory. have you or someone your older dog loves walk her to a park, or somewhere else in the neighborhood, and bring the pup out there for them to meet. this way your older dog won't feel like the puppy is immediately encroaching on her territory. have them both on leashes, just in case.

I'm getting a 13 week old puppy on sunday and I want to feed it the best. The cats eat raw but I don't think that's necessary with dogs, I'm thinking a mix of wet and dry food.. just don't know what brand is good/safe/reliable etc.

So what do you guys feed your dogs?

No but it all depends on the dog. Some dogs have sensitive stomachs like my lab so she eats some soft food salmon potato mix. It smells like ass

Hello /an/. Could I get some help please?

I have been growing some mint the past few weeks and this started happening in the last two days or so... What the fuck is going on? Is it a bug or something? I can take better pictures if needed.

At what point should you start being seriously concerned about a dog throwing up? The day before yesterday my dog had some milky white spit up, yesterday full blown vomited on the bed, and this morning just did the milky white spit again. She's the same as always behavior wise and there's nothing strange sitting out in the open for her to eat.

Probably acid reflux. Might have some stomach problems. My friends cat does that.
>>
is she eating and drinking normally? any diarrhea? i'd wait another day, and if she throws up again, call the vet.

Hoping someone can recommend me a good field guide for mammals in Texas. I need it for an assignment (I need to identify 20 species of mammals, either as road kill or random live encounters). I can't go to the zoo and I can only use two examples as domesticated pets (includes feral animals).

Help.

I love watching agility trials. Anyone in USA know where I can watch this on tv? Is it more of a seasonal thing or year-round?

Dunno about TV, but chances are there is someplace that does agility training and mini competitions not too far from you.

Your extra ESPN channels, and sometimes Animal Planet, are the ones that tend to show dog competitions like this. Usually the time slots are really horrible, though, so it's best to just DVR it.

So /an/, I have this Pinscher that loves to sit on my lap for no reason, and today after he sat on it, I scratched down his ear and he fell asleep within 10 seconds or something like that.

Was that wrong or bad or some sort of thing? I'm really clueless with this.

Jesus christ OP did you do no research before you got a dog? Doing what you did activates a complex series of pressure points and completely fucks your dogs health.
Expect basketball sized tumors within the month.

I'd recommend calling a vet and asking if they can fix it for you. Just tell them you accidentely activated your dogs cancer gene and they'll know what you mean.
