Hello doc. I have a little question to ask. I have tried lots of dog food for my dog, but still I don't know what is best for him. At the moment I am giving him Real Nature, I hope you heard about it, but I want to change it beacause I don't think th
Real Nature seems to be a very high quality food, it is not one i am familiar with but the ingredient list is quite impressive. if he is doing well on this brand i would probably stick with it. other excelent options include Orijen, Acana and taste of the wild.

we are getting are first dog what do we need
Ensure the puppy has been fully health checked, microchipped and vaccinated and contact the vet involved to confirm they know the puppy - I see you have her down as 6weeks old and spayed/neutered - this is very early and you should question the breeder as to if and why this has been done. You should arrange a puppy safe area of the house (indoor crate or partitioned off area) with no low hanging wires or cords they can chew or become tangled in, have plenty of spare, war, soft bedding and at least 2 food/water bowls, puppy training pads (if using) and an appropriate sized leach and collar to start training around the house. Have some appropriate sized chews and rope toys (avoid human items such as old shoes etc as this can encourage unwanted chewing of important pairs!). Ensure a dog sitter/walker or daycare is available if you will be away for longer than 4-6hours and arrange a vet check within the first 3days to ensure all is well! Good luck

I let my dog outside and when i let her back in she had blood on her then i saw her legs and neck her collar wasn't on. I was scared but i wrapped up he wounds. But my other smaller dog was outside with her and she wasnt all beat up i think its might
Poor Tiny! I would be very concerned that she was attacked by a wild animal, and she should see a vet immediately. That's because wild animals carry diseases that can infect dogs, and she should have a booster of her rabies vaccine to be safe. In addition, she will need pain meds, and she should have her wounds treated. The vet can also check her over for internal injuries. Please bring her into a vet now.

My dog chases deer. We live in the country. He wears an orange hunting vest and blinking collar but I think last wk he really got one. He is ( genetic test) half Jindo n half Gold retrvr. Jindo is a deer hunting dog. I am soooo upset about thi
Handsome boy! It’s rare for a dog by himself to catch a deer. If he did it was probably already weak or injured, or he had help. I recommend adding bells to his collar so they can hear him coming from farther away. Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help you care for Foxy.

Basically, I have no plans what to do if a natural disaster was to happen. I have 5 dogs who don’t get along so they are separated outside and one on the inside. I just want some ideas on what to do for all of them if something was to happen or where
I recommend you have suitable sizes muzzles, collars and leashes for all dogs so they can be kept indoors safely if required, collapsable crates are also very useful to have stored away so they can be confined safe and secure without fear of injury should you need to bring them in or transport them to safe shelter in the case of flooding etc
