I have a 6 year old female catahoula, and she seems to be jealous of me in my relationship with my new boyfriend!

Thank you all
Posted to: News & Entertainment
I just have to thank everyone. I thought I was one of the only dog nut/freaks out there. You know what I mean, I imagine what my dogs are thinking, and worry about something happening to them, I worry about them being alone, I get upset when I'm mad at something and yell at them (it makes me feel...

Hello All! This is going to be a long post, but a simple question. Please bear with me and thanks in advance!!! I have a 5.5 month old Vizsla. He is a very active (I should say hyper) dog.

Potty Training
Posted to: Training & Behavior
I have a 10 week old Chihuahua that we just got over the weekend. We are trying to Potty train him but for some reason he seems to be holding in both his pee and poop for a really long time. My 7 month old Chi would eat and drink and go not long after, like most dogs. This one won't go for hours...
