answered a question | How much dry food should I feed my dog? It Always Differs Per Brand Of Dog Food. I learned in school that a good quality food you will need alot less of than some brands with lots of fillers that are not necessary for dogs to stay healthy and active. There will be a chart on the back of you food bag. Look up you breeds ideal weight online and go by that. Should be x cups for a x pound dog. |

answered a question | Why does my dog poop in her bed? If she went potty on it once it simply smells like potty time. And there are enzymes that most cleaners and sprays can not get out so it is possible even if it is clean it can still smells like potty time. There are a few other reason too. Needing to go out more often or needing a refresh on potty training. |

answered a question | Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get my client's dog to quit marking all the furniture in the house? He is a really sweet loving dog and I want to keep watching him but I don't want him to ruin the furniture......? If taking him out more frequently doesn't work maybe asked the client if they have any marking problems at home, if they don't try a male belly band they are a wrap you can put on males and fill with pads to absorb the pee. They are made for males the are heavy markers or incontinent. |
