Dog Training & Health

Hi...I just adopted a big dog from a shelter. He's almost 2 yrs old, about 80 lbs. We think he's a huskie/lab mix.

We're going through a lot of training right now. It doesn't seem that he was ever socialized and I am trying to do that. When he meets other dogs, he is very excited, pulling on the leash. Now, when meeting seeing other dogs coming on the path, I will have him sit. ...

This just started about a month ago and I would like to get it ...

We have a 4 year old husky that I got from a family that was going through some hard times (so they say).

Hi,

I do hope that someone can throw light on my problem.

I sense that I am beginning to have a problem with my one year old lab. She has always been friendly and playful but I find of late she tends to get aggressive towards people that she suddenly comes across. For eg. when I take her down in the elevator and it happens to stop at a floor and someone tries to enter, ...

My dog gave birth to a litter of 9 puppies 3 weeks ago, for the first week and a half or so she was feeding them just fine. After that we started to have to help her switching off 3 then the next 3 then the last 3. For the past week or so she has pretty much refused to feed them when they are hungry. We have to lay her down and let them ...

I saw a dog on the street a little while ago. It was dark chocolate brown with short shiny hair. It had a slender frame, its head reached maybe waist height, but most noticeable were its huge pointy ears that made it look a bit like a jackal. Any ideas what breed(s) it might be?
