Chihuahua Dog Questions?




Hi.xDD


What is a nylabone used for? Sorry I'm new with dogs, *lol.
Should I get it a nylabone or a bone kong, or both?
& Should I buy it just ONE pack of training pads, after I'm not going to use it again.
I just need it for the day when I'm not home.
And what kind of toys should I get it...
Thank you in advance. :)
OKAY. I'll do my freaking research next time. :\
Okay, I think I'll just buy one pack of training pads.
& to eggopepper or w.e. my mom is staying home with it.



Answer
What is a nylabone used for?
A nylabone is used for satisfying your dogs chewing. Once your dog starts to teeth, it will want to chew and chew and chew. My dog is currently teething, and she likes to gnaw on the furniture. So I got her a nylabone. Her nylabone is chicken flavoured, but they have different flavouring. They have flavoured and none flavoured, but most dogs tend to go for the flavoured. Another solution is buying Bitter Apple Spray. I was recommended this, and it really works! In some Pet Stores you can find this in the Cat Section. It does not harm your dog, they just don't like the Bitter taste. So spray some on whatever you don't want your dog to chew on. When I was getting my Bitter Apple Spray, I also saw a Gel kind, it was Bitter Lime. Either one works i'm sure, but i've only had experienced with the Bitter Apple Spray.
Should I get it a nylabone or a bone kong, or both?
I recommend both. Your dog probably wouldn't get satisfied with just one toy. There are also different kinds of kongs. There are different sizes, and different ones used for different things. There are the regular ball shaped kinds, teething kongs, bone kongs, etceterra. Small, medium, big. There are also different colours, i've seen blue, red, and pink. You could stuff the kong with your dog's favourite treat! :) I use a little bit of peanutbutter.
The nylabones also come in different kinds. Different flavours. I've seen bacon and chicken, and i've seen ones that arent flavoured. Different shapes. I've seen one shaped like a drumstick, (or something :P) and I've seen one shaped like a bone. From what I understand there is also edible and not edible. There is also different sizes for different dogs. And different kinds for every kind of chewer (such as powerful chewers and average chewers.) All of the nylabones control tartar and are veterinarian recommended.
Kongs are also veterinarian recommended.
Should I buy it just ONE pack of training pads, after I'm not going to use it again.
Well, you already said you were just going to take the dog out and get a sweater and booties. ;)
So i'll just skip this question.. LMAO
And what kind of toys should I get it...
Take a look at the Pet Store and buy a variety, especially if your going to crate him. Some squeaky toys, soft toys, stuffed animals (my dog LOVES webkinz, LOL), chew toys (the kongs and nylabones), etceterra. :P Don't give your dog rawhides though, they aren't good for dogs.

Eyes of a Warrior: Just for the 'heads up' your answer will probably get deleted. Telling her to research doesn't answer her question. How do you even know if she's been researching or not? I don't know why people are going around answering just for the points.. my goodness.

ADD:
Also make sure to clean the Kong, you don't want bacteria building up.

Nutri-Vet Pet Ease gel for dogs?




megan b


Has anyone ever tried the Nutri-Vet Pet Ease gel for dogs? Have you noticed any change in your dog's behavior? Thanks.


Answer
Actually i have never used this product but i have used similar that i purchased from my vet practice and you can buy in pet stores

DAP

Promote the feeling of safety and reassurance for your dog
This is a new product to the market place. In mammals, all lactating females release a substance which science calls an "appeasing" pheromone. The function of this pheromone is to provide a feeling of comfort, safety and reassurance to the young. A dogs "appeasing" pheromones are secreted by the bitch 3 to 5 days after the puppies birth.

The environment we live in today is full of noises and smells that can be disturbing to some dogs who share our homes. It is now appreciated that anxiety is a real and debilitating condition for our dogs as well as for us. One of the most fascinating and ground-breaking developments to materialise against the stress and phobias experienced by our dogs is the identification and use of pheromone therapy.

Stressed and anxious dogs

A team of French scientists has managed to produce a synthetic version of this dog appeasement pheromone and this has now been launched in the UK as the Dog Appeasing Pheromone (DAP) Diffuser. Tests and trials have been going on for the last two years to assess the products value in the treatment of stressed and anxious dogs, and these have shown that by releasing this familiar signal to the dog, the DAP Diffuser can be very effective in many areas of dog behaviour therapy by making it feel less anxious, calmer and safer. These include destructiveness, vocalisation and house soiling brought on by stress, nervousness or anxiousness.


The DAP Diffuser
The DAP Diffuser works like a plug in air freshener, continuously releasing the odourless natural pheromone into the dogs environment, helping to make it feel safe and calm. The DAP Diffuser is a natural solution, there is no sedative effect and the dogs ability to interact and play is maintained.

A lot of people have dogs who are frightened of fireworks, and it is very distressing for owners to see their beloved friends cowering or shivering in a corner during this season, which seems to get longer each year. The only solution for many is sedatives. This is only a short term solution and is not good long term for the dog.

The DAP Natural Spray

The Natural Spray has exactly the same effect on your dog as the DAP Diffuser, but does not require a mains electricity supply. Ideal for using in the car, can help with travel stress and car sickness.

Simply spray 8 to 10 pumps of D.A.P. 15 minutes prior to expected effects and before your dog is introduced into the environment (car, carrier, Kennel etc...). Effects should last approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours, although each animal will respond differently. Renew application after this time if you notice a reduced effect.
D.A.P. Spray can be sprayed directly on bedding, inside crates, indoor kennels, or in the car. D.A.P. Spray should not be directly sprayed on animals or near an animals face.

Sounds CD

To go with the DAP Diffuser, there is a CD with sounds of fireworks on it. You play the sounds to your pet over a protracted period of time, starting at a very low volume and increasing gradually. This helps to accustom your dog to the sounds it does not like.

When the CD is used in conjunction with the DAP Diffuser it provides an effective, safe and natural way to calm your dogs fears and anxieties without resorting to potentially harmful sedatives and medication.
