iluvdogs! questioned:


We rescued a dog about 4 months ago from a shelter and they weren’t sure what kind of dog it was. They knew he was mixed with lab but wasn’t sure if he was purebred. Now that he is growing (he’s about 1 year and 2 months) he looks a lot larger than a regular lab. I researched and it said something about there being two types of labs; English and American with the American labs being more lanky or something? Well here are some pictures of my dog? Do you reckon he is a purebred or mixed with something like a fantastic dane?

Anonymous questioned:


Im asking becuz theres a no-pets policy but I really want a dog and I would give him attention and wouldn’t neglect him but theres a policy for no pets allowed. And I was wondering if he would bark when Im not there (school). Or do puppies sleep all day or is that cats?

How do I effectively potty train my Beagle?

Juliet DeVaux questioned:


I have two beagles. One is 4 (male), one is 3 (female). For the most part they are very excellent about no accidents in the house but recently my male beagle has been peeing in the house within a small period of time from the last time we’ve gone out. I have one door to enter/exit my condo and no fenced yard (I have to walk them). And any advice about getting them to do their “business” quickly would be appreciated too. Especially now that it’s so freakin’ cold outside.
