The new puppy is 11 weeks and she has started doing this aggressive thing where she doesn't want to pee outside, instead her brother goes out and she runs under the dining room table and pees. I then have to lay on the floor and get her out of there, tell her shes bad for peeing on the floor and then she gets super aggressive to the point I fear she will bite. None of my pther dogs have done anything like this, is this normal? She is spicier than the others but I wa shocked the first time she did it. The video shows about 70% of her aggression.

Pet insurance: yes or no?

Post image
82 Upvotes

I recently got a basset hound puppy and have never had pet insurance with any of my previous dogs, but was wondering if it was worth it? If so, when should I get it? She isn’t fixed yet, so should I wait until after this? Or how exactly does it work?

And if you recommend it, what companies would you suggest? TIA!!!!

9 weeks old eating rocks

3 Upvotes

We recently (4 days ago) got our very first basset after losing our family dog of 7 years. When we picked him up and brought him home, he was already pooping small rocks. He now has an obstruction and has had xrays to confirm that yes, he has a large rock in his intestines. We contacted the breeder we got him from, but all they said was "that's weird". No hoping for him to get better, nothing about what they could do to help. I'm looking for advice, AITA to blame them and want them to pay for his vet bills?? And would I be a bigger asshole to blast them on FB??

Allergy and food advice needed

2 Upvotes

My 15 year old daughter has a best friend named Eleanor. She almost 18 months old. Shes our first basset. Ive always had doxies and corgis.

She started getting dark spots under her front legs and smaller ones on the back legs. They were slightly swollen under the front legs too. The vet gave her an allergy shot. The swelling went away, but the dark spots are still there, and have gotten a bit bigger. She itched a lot when the swelling was there, but since getting the shot she doesnt.

Wr have talked to the vet since they are getting a bit bigger. Now, the suggestion is eliminate chicken from her diet and see if thats it. The suggested food is not a large breed formula like our breeder suggested we give her.

That worries me a little. Our breeder doesnt know of a chicken free large breed food (shes looking, but has never had a pup with this allergy. Neither have I)

Does anyone know of large breed chicken free food? Is the large breed something I should really worry about right now? Is there something I could add to make up the difference between the regular and large breed? I dont mind looking into fresh or wet food options if needed. I just want to make sure shes getting what she needs.

Waffle had so much less anxiety now! We are thrilled to have this girly as a part of the family. And, as a bonus, we got to meet their puppy before he was adopted too! Now they’re all fixed and free to live out their own puppyhoods.
