Re: Riley weed on bed

He was chewing his toy, i was sat on the sofa with him we walked to the other side, sniffed the wall then stood and weed whilst watching me. If he had sniffed around, or maybe gave me a little sign id have took him out!

Just worrying thats all

Re: Puppies on Prozac???

Further, there is no conclusive proof, that brain chemicals uniformly lead to certain moods. There are people with low seratonin that are perfectly happy and people with "normal" levels that are clinically depressed. It's not an exact science by any means and also what happens when you ha...

Re: Puppies on Prozac???

Very true Ladybug, think of it like a human, who wants to be anxious and panicy all day every day? If there is the option to have help with the use of medication. How many people do you see with depression (common/Clinical depression, not bi-polar) that are doped up off their meds, none thats for su...

Re: Confort

Well ill give you a description of each bed Riley has: His bed - Small enough to be comfortable but cannot really stretch out. His Sofa - (Old sofa in our bedroom, for night time sleeping) as you can imagine, its a 2 seater sofa with his blanket on it, so he has the run of that at night. His Blanket...

Do dogs/puppies enjoy a cosy warm, fluffy bed as opposed to a hard (warm) carpet floor?

Riley tends to prefer to sleep on the floor, on the carpet and not in his cosy, snuggly fleece blanket (or bed) just wandering if anyone has some info on this? or do i have an odd dog? lol

Re: Puppies on Prozac???

Plus doping up a dog , or a human, with these mood altering drugs don't cure anything. They just maske the symptoms and create a litany of side effects. Those requiring the truth, only need to go to the PDR online and read the side effects of SSRI antidepressants for yourself. Then you'll know the ...

Re: humping...

Re: What to do? Dog neglect.

In response to jakesmom, i was also told (as a child) its healthy to starve a dog once a week, no idea where it came from or why. If it were me (and im a bull in a china shop) id be round there like a shot, but if you're that not that forward, deffinatly try and drop it in conversation, make it out ...
