Marley likes to go on walks.One time when we were walking she saw a squirrel and dragged me across the road.She really wanted the squirrel, but it ran up a tree.

Pets, most of America has a lovely animal they like to call their own. In my case, I have a wonderful chihuahua named Pinto. Though he can be a pain in my butt most of the time, he’s still my little boy. The nice thing about Pinto is that he’s very cuddly. If you’re just chilling on the couch he’ll come up to you and snuggle right up next to you. It can be a pain sometimes if you’re trying to sleep and he just gets all up in your personal space and steps all over you. Pinto also likes to bark, a lot. He doesn’t need a reason he just does it.

We invited Baby’s best friend Sadie (a poodle down the street), and Mika (Bridget’s bulldog), over to enjoy the festivities. We were going to pick out some toys for gift bags for Mika and Sadie. When we were in Pet Smart, Baby was running through the isles pulling me along behind him. When we rounded the corner with the toys, this lady was standing there. She had a little Boston terrier. That little dog started showing his teeth and growling at Baby, so I shortened the leash and brought Baby closer to me. I did

Bailey is our worrier. If our dog looks at her funny, she is pretty convinced the dog

The latest episode occurred on a Monday morning 10 days prior. I was working at my kitchen table, which sits above the road before my home. It was soon after 9 a.m., when one of my enthusiastic eared canines began to discreetly snarl at something outside.

She was a lot of fun to play with and she was very energetic. We did not get her that day, but the employees told us that the dog we were interested in was going to be at Petsmart the next day. We went to Petsmart and we were going to make the final decision if we were going to get her. My sister and I really wanted her but my dad was hesitant about the idea of getting her. He did not know if we were ready for another dog. My sister and I really wanted her so we exclaimed “ we will do everything to take care of the dog!”

She may be cute and friendly, but she is also very protective. When Maggie is in the room, I'm not allowed to step 3 feet within a person. If I do, Maggie barks, and growls, and scratches to 'protect' me from whoever is near me.

Daisy was a happy dog. She loved to run outside when the sun came up and there was still dew on the grass. However, she was always very hyper. She tore apart shoes, drug her toys through the mud, then drug them back inside. Her owner Lydia was very aware of Daisy’s antics. She knew what Daisy was capable of and tried her best to control her. Sometimes she just couldn’t handle it.

She won’t run away, though because she knows we’re the people that feed her treats and food. Since Poppy knows my dad’s the boss, we thought that she only let him teach her to do tricks. My dad taught her to sit, lay, and shake. But I proved that theory wrong. One day I kept on rolling, and rolling, and rolling her over. Three days later I was going to give her a treat for going on a walk, so I said TREAT and she got so excited she rolled over! My dog is the #1 greeter in the world because every day my family and I get home from something, Poppy greets us at the door by wagging her tail really fast, barking and smiling at us. I once had a black cat named Schmitty, but when we had to put her down I was really heartbroken because I had lived with her her for my whole entire life. 2 years later on a Friday in March, little did I know that this would be the day we got the 2 years old bundle of love that made my life 100 percent better. My dog loves food better than anything, but cuddling with us is definitely a close second. She will bark at any person or dog walking by and personally I think she likes barking so loud that it almost shakes the house. Poppy absolutely hates it when people get into her face, even her

Owning a dog definitely has its ups and downs. These are some great examples of the downs. When we first saw Landis at the shelter we started petting

First, hears a question I’m wanting to ask you about your beloved pet. What is one of the most important things that you have learned from having this ball of fun in your life? Is it that the floor is just going to get dirty and you shouldn’t clean it regularly? I’m guessing not. I’d say that it was closer to what I learned. That you must have an amazing skill called patience, when working with your animal. Wouldn’t it be better to learn this through experience with an adorable creature? I had learned when I was teaching this bustling pooch anything from sitting before eating to not always jumping and barking with joy when someone new walks into the house. I couldn’t just tell her to do or not to do something. I would have to wait and tell her several times until she understood why she couldn’t do that. For example, Neveah couldn’t jump onto me in excitement when I had a large silver bowl of dog food since she couldn’t eat until I cleaned all the food up that she had made me spill when she jumped. We would both have to wait until she would sit before we could move on with her dinner and the rest of our day. Learning to wait and to be patient is important for anyone. That’s why I would suggest to everyone to get a pet and to learn as much as you can from

My dog, Chewy, is the greatest dog in the neighborhood. We came up with that specific name because she loved chewing on anything she can get her mouth on. She is a full blooded eight pound Chihuahua. My family and I have raised her since she was six weeks old, small enough to fit in an average size coffee mug. Chewy has black fur throughout her body, and dark tan fur around her tiny paws, beautiful dark brown eyes, and wet nose. She sleeps quite frequently all day, and lays anywhere she decides such as in between my parents in their full size bed, the new tan couch, or her own small, brown, and pink bed. Like other dogs, she enjoys chewing on her squeaky toys and gnawing on bacon flavored treats. She barks and snaps viscously if someone tries

family), but those little legs were working up and down the lawn in front of our house! Today was the first time, but I know we’ll see a lot more of it. She’s very proud of herself.

Noel is the best dog I could ever ask for, she has a funny personality, cute quirks and we connect so well. One thing I always tell new jug owners is to push their urges to cuddle in bed until they're been potty trained and taught other household manners for at least a month and introduction to the bed should be slow! Noel is sometimes skittish and other times shows some little dog syndrome but nothing to severe, training her was important. I love the jug guide, even though I didn't have it years ago when I got her I'm learning interesting things about her and even changing a few things to make her comfortable. She barked a lot until she was about five, she's currently six. I definitely recommend a painless bark collar, it makes a noise dogs

She barely goes outside but when she does I chase her until I can't catch her and she runs off to the neighbors yard. I hate how she does this but oh well, I can't really stop her can I. Another annoying thing about her is she leaves hair everywhere she goes. Puss Kiss usually sleeps with me and leaves hair on my blankets and bed. I can't stand this so I usually put my clothes in the drier and get the hair off.
