commented question How to stop dogs from peeing in one area of the house?

vinegar helps to neutralize the ammonia coming from the urine ... you can put it in a spray bottle with some water. It would be less harmful then using bleach

commented question How to stop dogs from peeing in one area of the house?

Have you tried using vinegar? The main problem is getting rid of the urine smell. Discipline when seeing them do it, or possibly block them from entering the area.

commented question Does anyone really brush their dog's teeth?

I will say I am awful at brushing my dogs teeth, but I give him those dental chews and take him for dental cleanings. I worked at a vet office and have seen many cases where people do not take care of their dogs teeth. They get bad breath, lose their teeth, and it can cause problems with their organs.

commented question How do you handle a dog constantly barking?

Keeping the dog more active can help. I've also seen people who have taught their dogs the "quiet" command. Ignore them when they bark and praise them when they stop.
