Hi all, I have been reading your posts on introducing a second dog into the home. I would like to get your thoughts on my particular situation. I have a 2 yo female pit (Mora) who is dog aggressive, but not terribly so. She grew up with a geriatric pug and they were inseparable. After he...

Hey, I have been reading on the forums that an older dog like my pitbull which is 1 years old can still get their ears clipped although it will have to be a short clipping. I have been told that I have to find a veterinarian that will do it. I cannot find any in my area and was wondering if...

Is it possible to have a 4yo pit's ears cropped? I don't want to do it but she and her "little sister" have gotten in some fights and even though we try to keep it from happening, it still does on occasion...totally our fault, letting our guard down. Anyhow, the little one always goes for the...

Hey guys! This is my first post. We have had our 2 year old pit (Apollo) for about a year and a half now. He's perfect. Great around people, great with kids, other dogs, everything. We then heard of a puppy (Max) who was abandoned, malnourished, and needed a home and thought why not! Well we...

Okay. We have a 14 year-old female shepherd mix, who has never been into other dogs; she MUCH rather prefers human interaction, and by far the most submissive dog I have ever owned/come across. We recently got Rambo an APBT. Rambo is ten weeks on Monday and we've had him since a little over...

I am trying to follow the Bill Hillman "Training Your Pet with the Electric Collar The Soft Collar....". I don't feel like I can follow the program exactly because my dog is very highly trained in obedience. We are completely new to field training. She knows how to retrieve, come when called...

We adopted an 8 week old puppy from our shelter 2 weeks ago. I've had mini poodles for 20 + years and I'm not allergic to pits now! Anyway my 2 poodles are 6 and 7 and were also adopted and raised together. They are mostly indifferent to the pup The 6 yo is a dominant female who does a low...

So I need some guidance here.. I hope someone can help me. We have a 13 week old female pit pup named Roxy who bullies our 4 year old male lab (Jake).. By bully, I mean as soon as Jake has anything (toy, stick, attention) she takes it from him. We don't allow her to pull that with us while...

I am new to this site and looking to increase my knowledge of the pitbull breed. I have a 9 month old blue and her name is Sky. I thought about having her ears cropped as a young pup but I have been so hesitant. I don't want to do anything to harm her. However I absolutely love the look and I am...

My puppy pit is always harassing my wifes 3 and 5 year old shihtzus! The older one runs but the smaller on is slow and he always stands over her and pushes her and the little one tries to bite him. He wont leave her alone? Hes just playing but he can hurt her easily... How can i get him to leave...

My mom adopted a six year old female staffy from the local humane society last week, and while we don't live together we want the dogs to get along so we can take them out together walking, beach, etc. I took Odyssey to the shelter previous so they could meet, and for the most part they ignored...

Over the summer we lost Tia, too long and sad of a story to get into, we've not finished going thru the grieving stage but we approached by a fellow worker of my husband's about taking in an older staffy. The oldest we've ever taken in was a 3 yr old rottie girl. We knew all of her background...

Meet Tosca, (named after a female body builder) she's an older gal I've been taking out at work. She's been here since the beginning of the month, and didn't have a name so the other trainers and I thought of one for her today. She is awesome, ball obsessed but polite about it (in the sense...
