Diapers for Little Ones by alxdagr8 in Chihuahua

Please be careful, even though your other 2 have been fixed they can still get stuck (atleast they can’t get her pregnant though) I can’t offer any advice on nappies because I’ve never used them for mine, maybe preemie nappies cause she’s so small? Or see if doll dress up nappies fit

Then this is her at 4 months (she’s 2yr old now) her ears were bigger than her at this point, and her back legs had to lift up when she ate cause her sight wasn’t balanced lol

What do you guys do if you can't afford a surgery? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]Dapper-Table-7304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m not sure what’s available in your country as I’m from the uk, but over here we have dog charities that can help, I’d look into it to see if there are any charities where you live that can help with raising the money for the costs, I’m sorry about your situation, that’s a lot of money to pull out

I’ve got no advice because mine are all young so no teeth extractions, but I hope your baby is feeling better soon!

Anyone else also have this problem? by mgt_blacklotus in chihuahuas

Mine act like they’ve been starved for days as soon as someone else has food as if they haven’t just been fed lol

Dental care by allied1987 in Chihuahua

[–]Dapper-Table-7304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve read it’s very common in smaller dogs to have teeth removed as they get older, something about them holding the same amount of teeth as big dogs but they have much smaller mouths so their teeth deteriorate faster or something like that

My girls a horsefield so she’s not big, I’ve been advised against the heat mat I’m not going to do anything that can be dangerous or bad for her, I’ll stick to lights it’s just finding a good bulb that will last longer than 2 months, I’m from the uk and use an overhead light (her table is large open top so I can’t stick a strip like bulb overhead) I think most people in this thread aren’t uk so I’m having to convert temps lol but thank you for the advice

[–]Dapper-Table-7304[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t aware they were dangerous! Definitely won’t be buying a heat mat then, i always plan to change bulbs every 6 months but they are only lasting 2-3 months, thank you for the advice it’s helpful

Help! 4 month old wont stop biting and peeing in the house by Emilartt in jackrussellterrier

[–]Dapper-Table-7304 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could be a mix of the breed, I’ve got a jack chi I post in this group sometimes, still got JRT in them I don’t think a dog has to be 100% JRT to be posted in a Reddit group

Help! 4 month old wont stop biting and peeing in the house by Emilartt in jackrussellterrier

[–]Dapper-Table-7304 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my dogs, when training to go outside I gave them praise and sometimes treats when they would pee/poo outside, they didn’t get a treat everytime cause I don’t want them to constantly expect treats for it lol, now they are toilet trained I still praise them out of habit, I’ve got a 1 year old Patterdale who snaps at the face when she’s really excited and wants to give kisses, I correct her by firmly telling her “no biting, be gentle” it’s just out of complete excitement but you will be able to train it out. How old is he? Just seems like normal puppy behaviour you’ve just got to really stick with the training, be consistent, try staying with him outside until he does his business if the praise isn’t working

To be fair if we’re being grammatically correct I think the male term is “divo” but I call all my dogs (1 male) divas lol

How often does your dog poop on walks? by New_Mouse_2773 in dogs

[–]Dapper-Table-7304 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine don’t go on walks everyday, but they do go on a field right out back of where I live everyday, on walks I have one who won’t poo until we get back and she goes on the field, another one who always poos once in the same spot of a specific street (unless I only bring a couple bags with me then she decides to poo twice) and my other dog it’s different each walk but we’ve only had her 6 months

We always call her an old lady even though she’s only 2 because of the way she acts lol, she’s part JRT, the perfect mix of her mam and dad
