    general cleaning house and dog

    well I have a ddb, he doesnt smell too bad, just looking little tips to keep it fresh with his bedding as he doesnt always use the couch with the blankets on them. He often gets too war and prefers the floor. Thanks again for the advice

    Just wondering how people keep their house smelling fresh, along with their dog. With keeping the house dog friendly not creating any problems for their pets

But as he had a accident resulting in a broken leg and an operation for a plate to be put in, he came back under weight, so i added a little more food...

    New Dog, Separation anxiety, need help.

    only reason he isnt allowed on the couch is the vet said no climbing stairs or on furniture, until the 2nd xray, its hard to keep him just walking as he wont go to the toilet with a lead on so i have to let him off for a min and he walks and does his thing in he garden but Honestly I dont have...

    Just a little update, I have a travel bed coming tonight so that meant that last night was spent alone, but decided to do it different. Instead of putting him into a different room to sleep, I just let him sleep in the living room. This is his normal area, only reason he couldnt sleep there...

    ok, Ill start it tonight, during the day, as most of the time someone is here with him, good thing at the moment with his leg, but is it ok to leave the room and enter and not greet him until he settles down? or is this also adding to the problem?

    thanks for the advice, I live with my girlfriend, we are going to look into a way one of us could sleep downstairs to help him. My question would be would this lead to issues down the line? like worse issues at night after being used to having someone with him? I understand the treat one problem...

    thanks for the reply, he has issues with going up the stairs even before the accident, and the vet has said no climbing on furniture etc, he has another 6 to 8 weeks of no exercise so its hard to tire him out etc, the reason I cant sleep down stairs is I sometimes get a bad back, and sleeping on...

    Hi, Ive never had a dog with any kind of anxiety, well any that showed any signs. But last week I became the owner of a dogue de bordeaux, 18month old, showing signs of anxiety, pacing crying and panting when leaving the room etc. But after only 2 days getting him used to his new home, we had an...
