you are right You are right. He doesn't have fleas and does fine on the Frontline, although he did have Lyme Disease at his last check up. But I don't want to strengthen the medicine. I didn't think of that! Thank you

I have researched on the Internet so much on fishy breath for dogs. My sheltie has fishy breath but doesn't have fish in his food, I don't think it's his anal glands which seems to be number two and I brush his teeth so doubt it's his breath. He's so healthy, but I guess now I should ask the...

I am thinking of trying K9 Advantix instead of frontline Plus which I have used for a while now. I don't have a flea problem but it looks like it covers so much more like mosquitos, etc. Anyone have any problems with K9 on shelties?

I have the same problem with leaving!! I have the same problem with my sheltie. He gets SO.... upset anytime anyone leaves the house, even to throw trash out. I am his favorite and even if I am still home and the kids go to the bus, he freaks out. I am lucky that he does not destroy anything...

I don't know if this is separation anxiety but my sheltie who is 10 months old, freaks out when someone leaves the house by the front door (boys to bus) or when my husband leaves for work. He paces from one end of the house to the other until the car leaves, if I hold him by the sliding glass...

Thank you. I didn't think that anything there was trimmed and I know it bothers him but just wanted to check.

Took my sheltie to the groomers for the first time (8 mos old) and they did a wonderful job but shaved around his ***** and trimmed his belly a little. I wasn't expecting this since I had asked not to have his belly hairs trimmed. They were not that long to begin with and now his ***** area is...

Cooper barks when he hears noises which I can deal with since he is being protective but this is getting out of control when someone new comes to the house. He is not only being protective but is timid. I tell the people coming to ignore him when they come in but he is afraid to get near them...

I have a barker also I also have barking issues. Mine are due to being scared or timid. Cooper barks when someone approaches the house but the problem is that he then doesn't stop if he senses that they are friends. At this point he is still nervous about having them there. I am encouraging...

we are back on track, no more waking us up in the night. I was away last weekend and my husband said one night, he heard noises outside, my husband told him it was ok and all was well. GLad to hear it Thank you for all the suggestions.

Thank you Well, last night I was a little stressed thinking Cooper would wake up during the night. He did and started whimpering softly around 3. I totally ignored him wondering how long he would go on. Luck for me, it lasted maybe 5-10 mins then he stopped. So far so good, I am sure he...

My sheltie is 6 months old. He just started whinning in the middle of the night. Thought he had to pee which is unusual for him to begin with. No problems before. Could not get him to settle down in his crate after so let him stay in the room next to me so we could get some sleep. The next...
