Who has a Jug?

I agree xD

kaotikjezta, I have looked at them. I still see nothing detrimental for a pet dog by desexing at a very young age. If you have a better article or anything, I've love to read it =)

I didnt mean it to sound rude. LOL whoops

 

[shell477]

i believe its entirely up to ash where she gets her dog from. to all you people going on about dogs in the pounds, do you go there every week and rescue every dog, because i imagine you dont. shame on you for letting them get put down by not taking them.

Ease up guys; there's enough arguing over reptiles on this forum - it doesn't need to extend to dogs as well!

Cute dog; as long as you are willing to be a responsible, lifelong owner, I don't see what the problem is.

Just because I can't afford to give more dogs a home, doesn't mean others can't afford to spend some time there and do their bit to help either =)

Well I said pros and cons, a couple of each, it has been found that it of health benefit to female dogs to desex before their first heat cycle to reduce cancer risks. It has been found to be detrimental to large breed male dogs to desex before at least 10 months and preferably older as the bone growth is affected leading to lankier legs which in turn leads to a much greater incidence of hip and spine problems. If you don't think the latter is too much to risk fine but besides getting a weird looking dog that didn't grow properly your setting yourself up for thousands of dollars in vet bills down the track.

whats the normal time you get your dog desexed? i thought it was about 5 months

She CRAVES attention! She is such a mummy's girl! My brother and his girlfriend really spoil her

For a small dog that would be ok as they grow way quicker than large dogs.

 

[Asharee133]

Also, I get that you have mental problems. No need to keep repeating it.

Edit: yeah, this is boring. To sum it up, you're selfish. Enjoy.

jeez. do you feel big and tough picking on a kid??

She CRAVES attention! She is such a mummy's girl! My brother and his girlfriend really spoil her

thats awesome our jack russell and staffy dont sit still, so it will be a relief to have a cuddly dog, oh, and does she have a stink to her?? our JRT girl stinks to high heaven!!

 

[hypochondroac]

If your Jack russell stinks so bad you might want to have a look at her diet, teeth or give her a bath.

she has allergies to grass, she gets bathed weekly too. and bad anal glands or something, but i've noticed with nearly all jack russells they smell

 

[10hcaro]

No, she doesn't stink at all. She gets bathed once a week at least

you're 16 ash, you're no longer a child, this is the time of life when you have the choice to either face adversity, or cower in the corner.
at some point in life we all have to face challenges, it's how we grow into adults.
just because someone doesn't agree with you does not mean they are picking on you or trying to push you down, it is up to you to take in criticism and choose how to face it.
perhaps you can choose to take in a negative reaction and really, REALLY think about why someone disagrees with you, you can logically address it and then see where you stand, not just cry out how unfair the world is.

 

[hypochondroac]

Bathing your dogs once a week is far too often. You are stripping all the natural oils out of your dogs coats. Once a month should suffice.

Are you sure your dog has allergies to grass or perhaps she's not doing too well on the diet you're giving her. Too much protein in her diet would account for both allergies, a bad smell and trouble going to the toilet.

 

[notechistiger]

I agree, hypo. My dog gets bathed every 1-2 months and he hardly smells at all. An egg and a tin of sardines once a week makes sure his coat is nice and shiny.

i know, but my perception of criticism isn't like everyone elses. and i take alot of thinks said negatively. that is why, i get all defensive. and everyone else calls me a kid, so i thought i was. and i know i have to face lifes challenges but i'm not ready for it, i'm getting therapy once a fornight, (all we can get -.-) and i've been recently diagnosed with borderline personality disorder which really fits the pieces together. anyway, thats another story, but if you want, just PM me about it.

Commercial dog food makes dogs smell and is usually an underlying cause of allergies.

she goes to the toilet fine, she has blocked anal glands, they are the scent thingys, i was like 7 when it was last explained to me lol, shes like, 14 and has cancer, so she has to be on puppy food because we can't give her hard stuff (cancer under the tongue)
