Useful Tip

Did you know that Vitamin E oil is great for re-growing hair on your dog's bald spots?  Dogs get scrapes, scratches, hot spots, or have surgeries that leave a bald spot.  Simply apply the Vitamin E oil to the bald spot a couple of times each day.  A veteran breeder shared this tip with me; I have personally had success with the Vitamin E oil.

Useful Tip

Here are some things to keep in mind when getting a puppy/dog.  This is a commitment for the entire life of that puppy/dog.  If you are unwilling to take on that responsibility; then don't get a puppy/dog.  That cute ball of fur will always look to you for:
  • Food
  • Water
  • Shelter (from the cold, heat, wind, rain, snow, sleet)
  • Baths
  • Clean-up of their feces
  • Health care
Don't be part of our nation's problem of overflowing shelters for unwanted pets.  Show the devotion to your puppy/dog; that they show to you.

Useful TIp

Barking dogs are a nuisance in any neighborhood.  You should always try to be a good neighbor and make the effort to see that your puppy/dog is not a nuisance with barking.  There are different methods to help or stop barking; such as bark collars.  Some collars use a static zap, some a tone, and some a spray; the choice is yours.  Some dogs are such a nuisance with barking that de-barking your dog by a veterinarian becomes necessary.  Many cities or counties have laws regarding nuisance barking; usually three strikes means de-barking.  We all know puppies/dogs bark; just don't let it become a nuisance.
