| answered a question | Why does my dog choke for no reason? Some small breeds have a narrow trachea that flaps, or collapses, when they get excited. My dog has this. I have taken her to the vet and they said not to worry. When it is allergy season the vet has given her a steroid that has opened her airway more, and the choking occurs less frequently. |
| answered a question | How can I make my dog bark? Does your dog not bark at all, or are you trying to get the dog to bark on command? My dog never barked when she was a puppy until I started to socialize her with other dogs at a dog park. She picked up many of the other dogs habits just by seeing and listening to the other dogs. Now she barks, and growls when she plays. |
