the day before i adopted my dog she was bitten on the nose and head by a doberman (she’s a lab/beagle). She’s great with people and is not aggresive at all with humans. She will not chase after other dogs, but if one tries to play with her or sniff her she will try to attack them. How can i socialize her out of this habit?

How do I get my puppies to last through the night?

MEB asked:


I’m crate training and everything seems to be going smoothly until nighttime. I have two puppies almost 4 mos. Every 3-4 hours I have been getting up and bringing them downstairs (separatly) to go potty. (12:30, 3:30, and we are up for the day at 5:30am) This is beginning to wear me out. If I ignore it they cry and howl for more than 40 minutes and I can’t stand it. Aren’t I getting them into the habit of going every 3-4 hours and how do I lengthen that time?
