  • “What type of dog should I get?”

    A stuffed one.

    From your track record with dogs I’m sorry to say it does not seem you are responsible enough to keep one.

  • The Poodle is an intelligent, easy to train type of dog. This dog is also nice to strangers once close to them and will not bite but only bark for the first time when seeing a stranger. This dog also plays with other pets, such as frogs.

  • If you’re willing to give up on your other dog after just 4 weeks without a care in the world, I’d say you don’t deserve another one!! If any of mine went missing I’d be searching non stop. Do a dog a favour…..let someone more deserving adopt it!

  • Keep searching for your missing dog! Put up posters, ask neighbors, go to the animal shelter to see if he turned up there, if you were to get another dog I would get a border collie!

  • Why are you giving up on your dog that ran away? Keep searching for him, put up posters of lost dog signs. A true animal lover wouldn’t give up on they’re pet.

  • I have my three dogs crate trained, and I didn’t have any real issues with it. Learn here http://onlinedogtraining.enle.info/?YKiR

    I didn’t get them as very young puppies, and that makes a difference. young puppies are like young babies. They don’t cry to manipulate, they cry to have their needs fulfilled. They need to potty every 2 to 3 hours at this young age, and crating them for long periods of time causes them physical discomfort. They don’t like to potty where they sleep, so it creates the need for the dog to get out of the crate, or soil it, which will make him more reluctant to use it.

    Make the crate a place where good things happen. My dogs get a small treat every time I crate them before I leave. They also get fed in their crates (I feed a raw diet, so it’s less messy if they eat in their crates). They dive into their crates in anticipation of food. I also leave the crate doors open all the time so they can sleep in their even when I’m home if they choose. If you have a smaller sized crate, keep it close to your computer, or other busy areas of the house so the dog has an option to go there and rest when you are home. toys such as Kong’s are great for the crate because you can stuff them and give the dog something to occupy him. I used to stuff mine with a mixture of peanut butter and frozen mixed veggies, then I’d freeze it before giving it to the dog. You could very easily do this when you are sitting at the computer, give him the Kong in the crate. Shut the door and let him enjoy it while you surf the web. (he may have to potty after he finishes it, so make sure you take him outside when he’s done). I’d also remove the kong and take him out of the crate before he asks to come out.

    If you keep it positive, don’t make a fuss when you come home, or when you leave, and have patience, the crate can be a wonderful tool!

  • You should be trying to find your missing dog by advertising its lose. Have you reported it missing to dog warden…have you put up missing posters?

  • Border collie. I had one they are so cute, good with children and not too big. Or a spaniel (cocker spaniel, springer spaniel, cavalierking charles spaniel) i have a cavalier king charles spaniel and he is lovely. He isnt that big but he loves walking and running around in my backyard.
