what do you think of Dogs

Fan4-45years:
My schnauzer, Rocco, has fleas, poor baby. I washed him and put Advantage on him, but it didn't work. Even washed him with Irish Spring bar soap which is supposed to kill fleas. Saw a lot of them in the water when rinsing. Dried him. Applied Advantage. He's still scratching, though not as often. I'm worried he'll need something else to kill them, but don't know what else to do.
Rocco may need to go to the vet for further treatment. Frontline works much better than Advantage. Also, treating Rocco for fleas isn't enough. I hate to tell you this but there is a strong possibility that your home may also have fleas. And you will have to get something to treat your home in order to ensure that poor Rocco is finally rid of fleas. Precor works best & is the most effective but you can only order it online overseas.

Both of our dogs enjoy sitting on the garden bench with us in our yard on the evenings the weather is good. Until they spot a rabbit or the pest groundhog who is destroying our veggie garden.

I love all my pets, cats, dogs, etc. etc. Unconditional love. We recently lost one our dogs, her name was Bellah and she was 8 yrs. 5 mos. letting them go and not suffer is the hardest part of being a pet owner. Cancer was taking her so we released her of the pain she was in. Forever in our hearts. Miss you girl.

awwww...soo sorry to hear that. That is very hard to do. Sounds like you have others to comfort you. They probably miss her too.

Sorry to hear that .... Being a pet owner and having lost a dog over a year ago .... one cannot explain it ... the hurt and the loss .... to someone without pets ... who never had pets ....

My dog loves the water .... swimming (only a few times so far) to a small pool for him .... I was watering the lawn or flowers and squirted him and he loves it He was jumping around in the water being sprayed.... barking and running and jumping .... it is fun to see

I understand. When my English springer spaniel died, it was four years almost to the day before I got another dog. I was still grieving for Petunia until then. I still miss her, but having Rocco helps now.

Yes, having a new dog to replace the one you lost always helps. Hey...some idiots here in Chicago stole the airconditioners off the roof of an animal shelter here to cash in the copper. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!! Serious? again...IDIOTS! But anyway, a local talk show host felt bad & yesterday on his said lets try to help them out. They needed $21,000.00 to replace the rooftop units. The poor animals (120) have been suffering for a few days...it's been very humid. He raised like 23,000.00 in 3 HOURS!!! If you'd like to see it or read about it go here http://www.wgnradio.com/shows/johnwilliams/wgnam-john-williams-animal-welfare-league,0,6750612.story YEAH JOHN WILLIAMS!!! And WGN Radio!!!!

At the moment I'm snuggling up in bed with my little cocker spaniel friend and my brand new lap top computer. I've never had a lap top before so this is quite marvelous to be able to relax in bed and play around with it. Still can't get these icons to go where I want them to. Hey, it worked!!

How horrible for them. Yeh for the fundraiser, but I imagine the dogs will go all weekend without a/c and still suffer for it.

My dog cannot grasp the "sit" command. He'll sit by the treats and look at them with or without the command, but if I tell him to sit in another section of the house, poor thing looks at me like he's baffled beyone belief as to what I want.
-
Hold the treat over his head & gently push his butt down. That's usually an easy one. My dog does "about face"& then "reverse"! haha

Stupid people dye their poodles. And people that race or run hounds have numbers painted on their sides. I think that is really dumb.

You raised one of the many things idiots do to animals. There are some good people that have adopted retired greyhounds. Dogs are meant to be companions & shouldn't be subjected to painting or fur dye. Our dogs love swimming in the pool with us.

I actually meant worse than greyhound racing. The dogs are coonhounds or foxhounds usually. http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2011/04/rescue_flight_brings_abandoned.html
