all things dog!

I’m still in a state of utter shock and disbelief. 6 weeks ago I dropped of my baby Marco (he was a 1.5 year old Chocolate Lab) at a top-notch training facility in South Carolina. Their kennel and the 160 acres of fenced in land were beautiful. (I live in Miami, FL) Just 5 days before I have...

Hi! We’re looking to get a dog as a companion for our 9-year-old son (though honestly this dog is probably as much for my husband as my son lol). We’re probably looking for a dog that doesn’t exist, so appreciate the help and reality check. Thank you! Introduction (1) Will this be your first...

Hi all, I know this question gets asked here a lot but would love to know your opinions on which dog to get as a first time owner with no experience. I would love to get a golden retriever. However, Im at work 10 hours a day, would love a dog that wouldn't shed a lot, easy to train and is...

I’m exploring new doggy day care centers for my 8 month old pup and wanted to get opinions / input from other people’s experience. Our pup has been to one day care, and we’re looking for another closer by. One location looked promising, however they let the dogs potty directly in the play room...

Hi all, I don't know if such a detailed post on medical things is allowed but I'm in desperate need of some insight as I am in a country where the main language is not my first! I have posted this in Ask Vets as well. *I have arranged the images chronologically in the imgur link, background...

I have a golden lab husky mix that was born in January 2020. He is extremely social. He love dogs and people. Sadly, because of Covid, he dont get lots of play time with other people/dogs. Me and my GF are playing with him daily, but its not enough. Since Friday i have been off work just as...

All, My wife and I are looking for a new addition to our home. We've owned dogs before and they are very much our babies. We are both retired, therefore, older (60's). I want to adopt a dog that is being rehomed, any age from 3 months to 2 years old. Due to the economics of owning a dog...

Hello r/dog friends! I have two dogs (3 y/o GSD and 6 m/o Shep/Kelpie) that I'm trying to find a good backpack for toting around their accessories for when we go on trips, to the park, etc. I have 3 leashes each (of varying lengths - one pair being a long training slip lead, the others being...

I have an 8 year old chug (chihuahua pug) and he’s very happy and healthy except for having a cherry eye. I’ve had him since he was a puppy and he has had a cherry eye since he was about 2 or 3 years old. I have two sides of people throughout the years saying don’t do the surgery and other...

I’m fed up of life, my life isn’t advancing, career, money, love life, and the one thing that I had, my dog, died traumatically almost 2 months ago and a couple thousand dollars in dept while trying to save him. I am in limbo with my life, don’t know what I want to do, etc, and ended up crying...

Really loved the new Fenzi podcast on the future of R+, what can be improved (lookin' at you sanctimoniousness) and, most of all, in learning how to ask for consent from the dog in certain situations. This is not to be confused with permissiveness (asking means honouring the 'no' so you have a...

Hi, It's my first post on reddit. I wanted to show you something that I've worked hard for. Since I had an accident with my dog called Indi (Australian Cattle Dog), I decided to create an iOS App which let dog owners to avoid danger dogs or let another dog owners know that our dog isn't...

Yesterday at 5am Chopper started throwing up blood, shaking, and breathing very shallow. My boyfriend and I have been out of town with our 2 dogs for the last week, staying with his mom since his died passed from a heart attack on Sunday. We rushed him to the closest vet but had to leave him...

I am a single young professional in my late 20s. I live alone in an apartment building that has a large dog run/park area and the neighborhood where I live is also very dog friendly. I have been thinking about getting a dog for a while and finally decided I am ready. I want to adopt an...

Have a golden retriever-he is the sweetest couch potato who will walk happily beside you on walks. Bought another golden retriever-absolute suck that needs 100 percent of your attention and love 24/7 or gets upset and just doesn’t run out of energy and seems to never gain any weight on him. I...

My family decided to foster a gorgeous 1 y/o husky mix in early October. She had a ton of behavior problems at the time, and since I've been completely free I spent almost all my time with her either training her, playing with her, taking her to the dog park, taking her on walks, or just hanging...

I'm frustrated with this one dog that ain't mine. She's a grown mid life dog, size of my 11 women foot. I let her out at 12 am and got up this morning at about 8 and I woke up to poo. Meanwhile my 7 month old medium dog hasn't had an accident in forever. I don't do anything, but let her out and...

My recently retired hunting hound slipped out this morning and ran a merry chase at least a half mile into the woods behind our house, but I had no idea what direction he went and didn't want to go looking in the woods in case he ran into the road. Luckily he went into the woods and came up to...
