First, your puppy was acquired TOO YOUNG. She missed important lessons from her littermates about bite inhibition, and etc. This can't be undone now, but is something to keep in mind. I would advise you to do an internet search on BITE INHBITION and read up on why teaching this is so...
Just remember that with this mixture you have to make it up fresh each time. You can't save some for a later scrub. Otherwise I have never found anything that works better,especially for the price.
LGD's can be very good home protectors and family protectors but I always recommend fending for them. They for the most part are all roamers. What they see if what THEY own and will protect.

I LOVE terriers of all sizes.
Our terrier is a mix, awesome thick wire coat and energy to go forever. We have had him for 12 years now and he was an adult when we rescued him. I will always have a terrier around if I can. He is highly animal aggressive to all other animals that are not in our...
Purebred or not does not really matter. However it will make a difference in what you are looking for in a dog. many puppies are cute but they all grow up and have specific needs.
I think that you should take some time and do some research first of what you and your boyfriend are looking for in...
The blood is normally checked by the vet hospital with either a blood glucose curve, just a random blood glucose check and normally a fructosamine level.
At home the blood def. can be checked by the owner but many owners will not. If they are interested in that then they should be talknig with...

Another person in the veterinary community...I would second this. Yes, we do see some really nice Chihuahuas, but the majority of them are labeled "caution/muzzle" on their charts. The other thing I will point out is that they can be "fragile" (i.e. we have seen some...

I agree.
You should be able to feel the ribs without having to push at all on the fur. If you have to push on the fur to feel the ribs there is extra. It is also not just about exercise though. It means they are consuming to many calories.

A friend of mine has 2 and their needs and training were very similar to most LGD breeds.
They had an experienced LGD train them with all of their critters. They have many other types of critters but their female stays with all of their birds.
Does a very good job.
They are a thinking breed like...
