I am at my wits end. I have people walking their dogs and not picking up their poo and I have cats doing the same thing (not walking their dogs though) I have used chemicals and other products like chilly powder. Any ideas

Apparently, “my” Rottie chewed up the main brake line on my husband’s ginormous trailer that he parks in our backyard over night and over the weekends. My hubby is convinced that “my” dog is teaching “his” dogs bad behavior and how to tear up the drip systems, plants, etc. Regardless of “who-done-it”, what is there available to prevent the dogs from chewing or digging things? We need something that is safe, just something that will deter them from putting their snouts where they don’t belong… Thank you in advance!

In my apartment complex there are a lot of really big dogs. Dalmations, black labs, etc. I don’t understand why anyone would keep such a big dog in an apartment. One dog couldn’t handle it and broke through the window to get out (twice). I love dogs, but it seems cruel to keep them in such a small home.
I never said I was judging these people. I’m asking this question so that I can understand their point of view. I said “seems” cruel. That being my perception, which I am willing to change -hence the question.

My neighbor’s dog just got hit by a car. Their puppies are still 2 weeks old. What will happen to them? Not that they were irresponsible. The dog really does escape its cage and go out to the street. And the zooming car was fast! The driver didn’t even go back to say sorry :(

I know it’s usually 8-12 weeks old for the puppies to leave mom and be sold.

But if puppies were never sold, how long do they stay with mom? What age will mom make her puppies leave her?
