    Sheltie reaction on pregnant owner

    Hi everyone, I have a two years old sheltie who is very loving and caring and his name is Jose. Two days ago, I found out that I am pregnant and I noticed that Jose has become more attached to me, sitting close to me, following me around the house, etc. But he vomits yesterday afternoon and...

    Potty training

    I need help! Jose was doing pretty good with the potty training but since yesterday, he started peeing on the floor... but he'd still use the pee pan for pooping. When I see him pee on the floor, I'd tell him "No" and bring him to the bathroom where the pee pan is. I kept him there with the...

    How to train to walk

    Jose had never been taken to walk before while he was in the pet shop. So he is not used to the harness and the leash. Now that he is with us, we wanted to take him for a walk but the minute we put the harness on, he will not move. We can't even get him to stand up. The minute we take the...

    A/C or Fan?

    I live in the Philippines so the temperature is quite warm... Should I keep my sheltie with Fan or A/C? Our apartment is windy though... will it be enough?

    Potty training

    I tried keep him out for a longer time this morning.... and :biggrin2: I had to clean up his pee and poop for about 5 times in one morning... even though I'm watching him almost all the time... Just one turn of head is enough for me to turn back and found out he's doing it on the floor... What...

    Potty training

    We live in an apartment where almost all the rooms have either a dog or a cat and when we go down, there is only the road where other dogs roam around. Do you still think it is okay to bring him out? The tray is in our bathroom and when he's not in the cage, I keep the bathroom door open so...

    Bathing Sheltie

    Jose is not a show dog... we just want him as a son... Will bathing the dog 2-4 times a year only apply to a dog like Jose who live in a tropical country? It's pretty warm here... :biggrin2:

    Dry or Wet

    The pet shop told me to feed Royal Canin dog food for my 5 months old Sheltie. Should I feed him dry or soak it with water?

    Potty training

    I've got my 5 months old Sheltie 3 days ago and started potty training him in the following way. Can someone let me know if I'm doing it right? I kept him in a cage where he sleeps and rests. I take him out every 6 hours or after a meal and bring him straight to the bathroom. Then I tell him...

    Bathing Sheltie

    Thank you all for the replies. I haven't bathe him by myself but the pet shop gave him a bath before we brought him home. He was smelly the first day he got home but less smelly now... I was also told that I should wet his coat before I brush or at least spray some water before brushing. If...
