But why take the risk of acquiring something that'll keep you on your toes? Its not my biz though....All I know is....if a dog as small as Lhasa Apso goes out of its way on any of my fam, I'd be offloading a whole magazine on it's a$$ while I see the owner off to rot behind bars

well tbh dogs aren't for everybody, not everyone knows how to handle dogs and properly raise them right, training a dog goes far beyond feeding and locking in cage.
some people will say they want an aggressive dog or a particular breed they know nothing about and when it goes out of hand everyone blames the dog.
millions of people own dogs around the world and have never recorded any tragedy like this, the mistake of some few people doesn't condemn the animal or all dog owners.
people still own dogs that help their lives in several ways, owning a dog doesn't put you on your toes.
dogs will be dangerous if you make them to, it's the owner's fault for keeping an aggressive dog that hasn't been socialised with children in a place with a small child and he should face the consequences for it.
if you take the necessary precautions when choosing a dog or training a dog then nothing is wrong.

mikezuruki:
You just come talk rubbish in this animal's defense. Animal like you.
So if the dog had been possessed by demons, the dog will come and tell you abi.

if you read what I typed and still found something to be angry,stupid and loud about then your ignorance is clearly long term.
read what you just replied with and see if you have sense and any body would waste their strength having a conversation with you

UniversalDove:
that's a pitbull. Those dogs should not be kept around children...
Various videos on Facebook warning people about that breed

it's not a pitbull.
it's most likely a cane corso, it's kind of hard to tell since the face is covered but it's definitely a mastiff not a rott

mikezuruki:
Nigerians watch too many white people shows a lot. Our dogs are not as theirs. Demon do possess these ones here. Na why I no dey give any cat chance...holy ghost fire dia!

dog attacks happen in literally every country that has dogs, it's not a Nigerian thing, the cases are even more severe in other countries.
it's the owner's fault that this thing happened not that because the person has a dog.
the dog was not properly socialised and trained, it wasn't possessed by any demon.
blame the careless owners and not the animals please, dog's behave how you condition them to behave.

IceColdVeins:
For fvck sake, my love for rott is now officially dead

but that's not a rott, bloggers just use the Rottweiler's name because it's popular and they just want more attention to the post.
the truth is that any dog that is aggressive and badly trained can do this, whether rott or gsd or boerbel or Caucasian, let's stop attaching tragedy or bad traits to particular breeds.
if an aggressive dog is not properly socialised, it's capable of hurting little children like this, it's the owner's fault not the breed.

Jackonsy:
Bull mastiff is rare in Enugu so people see it as alternative to or the next in line

next in line to rott??
they literally have nothing in common

Roscoe's snack this afternoon, these are frozen goat spines I got from the market.
I buy them once in a while for him to munch on, they are mostly made of cartilage and bone marrow, even a pup can chew them(if you're giving them to a pup put them in a mortar and pound them first to crush them just to be safe).
the ones in the plates cost 200 naira, and it comes with some other unbreakable bones too that you can boil and use the broth for your dog's food, it also comes with meat attached to it. I give him either raw or cooked, depends on where I buy from and if I can freeze them properly
note I said goat spines not cow spines, cow spines are not soft like this

Jackonsy:
Breeding and pet isn't the same right, but breeding a bull mastiff and Rotweiller will be happily accepted by you right

why would someone want to mix a bullmastiff with a rott?
that's a very ridiculous mixture

Jackonsy:
Do you mean I should have it as a pet and not for breeding

yes

Megyucy:
Take a good look at the rabbit ears and the shark tail...hehehehehehe


Omg...

imagine how sad and meaningless your life has to be for you to be making fun of a beautiful 7 month old puppy by 1:45am for attention, I can't relate.

MrrKay:
IamAnderson
I really appreciate, pls tell me other means to increase protein, cos aside from her diamond and dry meat,
1egg/day.
Other things is nt on daily basis e.g the chicken neck and head.
Then i give her milk, soyamilk, cordliver oil and aegis booster like trice or twice a week.
Please suggest what u think i am missing.

Then interms of exercise, i do walk her and nt regularly cos of time.
Any exercise and types shecdule?
God bless you.

what you're giving her is already okay from what you said now.
just increase the quantity of her food and she'll be fine.
and what I mean by exercise is that you should make sure she runs around or plays as much as she can. it mustn't always be formal walks for exercise.

Jackonsy:
Thanks I will make sure that i get a good stud for her as of when due

lmao, he's actually saying you shouldn't breed the dog, the dog is too mixed to be bred.
see how people couldn't even tell what it was mixed with?, if you want to breed it what breed are you going to use?. a dobberman? a gsd?
either way the pups will probably not come out well, you'll just bring a whole new litter of mutts.
just enjoy your dog and raise her, not every dog should be bred, it's not a compulsory thing to do, her bloodline is too mixed and she'll just be giving birth to unpredictable pups.

vincentjk:
Check both pharmacies and pet shops you should get
Where do you reside?

port Harcourt

You've finally started a thread for Rex and roxy they are doing well, you're doing a good job bro keep it up

vincentjk:
Got it from a petstore in abuja but as for the price, I'll let you know once i check the receipt. It's an affordable syrup tho

oh thanks I've been looking for a syrup like that

Jackonsy:
She agitates when she is hungry and hate seeing sight of cane or anything stick

She plays too much with teeth

Funny enough she act weird whence she knows she have committed and offend

In fact this dog gives me joy

I still laugh whence one of us said she is agege shepherd

Then finally she can fight for African

She is fearless oooo but when cane shows she becomes meek and humble

She hates strangers crossing her cage parts

Yesterday she hit someone jocosely with her teeth while hugging me

Then lastly you got to see her when plays like nothing worries her at all

Then the latest one is she hate being on chain or cage and when released she just feel the sense of freedom

I love her

@iamoneoftheadvocateforanimalright

that's good to hear, just take care of her well, she seems like a good dog

MrrKay:
Boss.
I feed her in the morning, then when i come back in the evening/night and meet empty bowel, i refill.
What i think i ought to do nw, is to increase the quantity of her food.

increase the quantity of her food and add more protein too with more exercise, you'll notice the difference
when she bulks up and starts adding muscle mass you'll see how much better she'll look.
the frequency of her feeding is okay too the only thing you should change is the quantity

vincentjk:
In a bid to keep augusto healthy, active and free from any kinda disease, I'm currently administering the following medications on him;

First pic: it's Bcomplex, it look and tastes like the emzor multivite for children and it helps in appetite and to also prevent him from going down. We all know that vitamins prevent one from falling sick, that's what a doctor once told me.

Second pic: this is amoxylin. I personally don't know what it does but the person that bred augusto told me to be administering it on him 2ml morning and 2ml in the evening for five days, I'm stopping today so the rest should go to the dustbin because as prescribed by the makers, it should be used within 7 days of opening but should be refrigirated.

Third pic: I used the glass bottle to store the local palm kernel oil I got from the market, I bought a cup for N200. It helps in keeping the immune system strong and other health benefits as well

where did you get the b complex?
and his much was it?

MrrKay:
Thanks Boss.
Let's be watching her, i want to increase the quantity of her meal though.
Let's keep watching her, tho i dnt want her to look obessed, need her fit and smart.

I think Vincent is right, she does look lanky, I think it's because you haven't increased her food serving recently.
she has probably grown bigger than the amount you usually give her because I can tell she's eating healthy, her coat is shiny and she looks active, it's just the quantity that's the issue.
also your fear of her getting obese is funny, don't you know she's a boerbel?
are you expecting her to be the weight of a gsd? lol feed her well abeg, the beauty of a boerbel is it's mass and bulk .
even if she adds weight she can still carry it don't be afraid lol.
at her age she should be weighing about 36-45kg which is higher than the weight of the male German Shepherd
so imagine how much all those massive adult ones we see in dog shows weigh
boerbels have the bones and frame to carry body mass, is what they're built for, more weight won't kill her or slow her down.
just keep up with a chart to know if she's adding too much weight for her age and you'll be fine bro, obesity isn't good yes but some breeds are meant to be bulky that's why you should check dog's weight based on breed.
a malnourished cauc will still weigh more than an obese gsd , it doesn't mean the dog isn't underfed.

Jackonsy:
Thanks bro I really appreciate you candid gesture
Please help me with your number cause I will like to know you more

09032973583 you can WhatsApp me

Jackonsy:
What features scribe it as so please

Educate me on that

there's nothing about the paws that makes it look like a local dog, don't mind him lol.
it's a gsd/dobberman hybrid, you can tell from the markings on it's eyebrows and the body stature that it has dobberman in it.
the colour pattern,fur and ears show it is part sable gsd.
there isn't any local dog marking on it to me

Jackonsy:
Thanks but what can I give her to make her fatter cause,the owner want to keep it to my care

the dobberman breed doesn't grow fat so I guess that's what's causing her to look lean like that.
there isn't much you can do, it's genetics so just feed her well and make sure there's enough protein in her diet

it's a dobberman/gsd mix

rumenase:
you're right if your dog bites someone it is trouble for you no matter who is at fault there was a time someone came to pick bitterleaf from my house when nobody was at home and it ended with a nasty bite from my dog I still paid the bills.

ah sorry that happened.
that's why I always warn people not to even come close to my gate if no one is around and my gate too is also locked, I don't want to experience accidents like this.
the way it is now, for you to enter my compound without permission, you have to actually break in which makes you a criminal and vindicates any dog attack.

okikiosibodu:
He ought not to be attacking strangers when off leash. You have done a great job though achieving this even at a time devoid of people, trust me I know it's lot of work for hyper active dogs . I have tried it but to no success (the dog wasn't mine though, guess I didn't have enough time to do so, even though the dog and I really bonded well). A starting point is a regularly crowded place, but at a time not crowded, maybe l late at night or early hours of the day.
I used be an active participant on Petland before now, but I now have ither distractions but one I can never forget is a thread created by LordRegalia. He is a great personality here on Nland and TBE, with his Terrifc expertise in Boerboels. You can learn a thing or two on his thread is you spend a lil of your time there. He is an accomodating fellow
https://www.nairaland.com/3018056/how-trained-dog-walk-off

ah thanks a lot I'll read the thread
I still think he's going to attack people if he's offleash tho, anytime I'm walking him around that time he's usually very alert and self conscious, once someone starts walking on the street he'll know and start waiting to attack the person if the person does anything suspicious.
I think maybe it's because of the time I walk him, when I walk him during the day he's more laid back and relaxed esp when there's a crowd.
when it's dark, if he sees anyone carrying a torch, running, or carrying something like a bag or stick or even umbrella as a suspect and he growls at them, even if they're coming behind us he'll wait and turn back to stare and growl at them until I wait for them to pass and go far away from us.
if the person shouts or runs, he attacks them, even if I raise my voice at them he attacks.
I don't trust him off leash around people so he won't hurt someone thinking he's defending me.
he also does this during car rides, he doesn't let anyone close to the car, he'll put his head at the window and bark, anyone that comes too close to the car or touches it will get barked at. the worst is if you put your hand through the window or try to open the door .
sometimes when we go out we leave him in the car (with the windows down and the car parked in a shade of course) with confidence that the car is safe
for now, I only take the leash off when the road is empty, once I notice he's stopped walking and he's staring and growling at the distance, I know someone is coming and I put the leash back on.
and upon all my pleas with people not to stare at us or run or even flash torch at us, they still do those things which in turn will trigger him to see them as dangerous, the people that just mind there business and walk past, he ignores them(he'll just stare at them till they go).
I just feel like he's protective and territorial, not everyone will understand that they're the one's making him see them as dangerous, if an accident should occur I'll be the one to carry the blame despite all my warnings so I'm just trying to keep him away from people who don't know how to act around dogs(which is virtually every one in my area )
I'll still check out the thread tho, I usually let him walk off leash when it's very early and the road is empty so I'll still need it, thanks a lot bro

okikiosibodu:
You have a great command of words. Excellent diction
My very first experience with a Boerboel too... She was pedigree and well socialized. She played tirelessly with me in front of the house even as I was a stranger to her, and I was convinced I was accepted into her pack. So I thought. Her owner was returning her to the company and I wanted to accompany them. She pulled against her leash as she entered through the gate, turned and waited for her alpha to enter. She was giving me a stern look but I didn't pay much attention. I was about to step in when she charged at me while giving out some growls. The owner had to pull hard against the leash to prevent an attack. Then there came this noisy unending barks with several attempts to test her biting force on me while giving off some deadly growls. The perplexed owner and clueless me were so lost as to the reason for the sudden action. The summary was,she was territorial. She only does that when in her territory. Outside it, she is as harmless as a dove

he does the exact same thing that boerbel does too
once he's inside the compound, people he'd let get close to him and even touch him outside are gonna get attacked if they try to enter.
their was a time I took him out to see a friend that had 3 dogs so he could socialize with them. after we were done(we spent several house there), my friend escorted us back home and even walked him on the road.
when we got home, I left him outside with my friend to get something inside the house then after a few moments I started hearing barking and my friend calling my name when I ran back outside I saw that my friend was about locking him in his kennel, when I entered inside then he turned on my friend and tried to attack him. fortunately, he was already inside the kennel when he turned back so my friend was pressing the kennel door shut while Roscoe was barking and trying to get to him

Toju200:
the work nor be here oo I should start preparing myself.... but I do brush mine every day....

when the fur comes out longer comb it instead, combing it will detangle the ones that are already tangled and remove the detached fur too.
start preparing yourself for your dog's shedding season ooh
it's good as you regularly brush his fur, it'll make grooming him easier for you, mine wasn't groomed in 2 weeks during his shedding period that's why the fur came out like that

Toju200:
wow dats alot

yeah hopefully the shedding will stop soon because their is fur literally everywhere right now.
on the compound walls, on our clothes, the center piece in the parlour, I'm tired of sweeping and brushing them off

For some days now I've been finding fur all around my house and compound and immediately I knew the culprit.
I haven't been able to groom him for about 2weeks now but the amount of fur I combed out surprised me, I had to even sweep clumps of fur out of my bathroom after bathing him and pull out some from the drain.
the one on the pic is just the fur I combed out from his body
his puppy fur is finally gone lol, he has been shedding them off heavily for some time now and I think this is close to the last one because the puppy fur is almost completely gone.

I try to comb him once a week to prevent matts and tangles and it works, if the detached fur isn't there to tangle with the new one then his fur will be free and neat.
sometimes when I'm free or bored I just call him and run a comb through his fur.

newsynews:
Doc said I should wait till Jessy clocks 6 months before we can start going for walks. That's going be by December. He also advised I still keep her confined till then.

you can start taking her on short walks once her vaccines are done though, it's not a strict rule.
use the 5min per month method, for every month she is, add 5 mins to her walk time, that's by 3 months/15mins, then keep adding 5mins as she ages and do it less frequently when she's young.
it'll help her get used to it faster, if you suddenly bring her on walks when she's 6months old she might be nervous and fidgety which isn't good at all at that age.

newsynews:
Yeah, we've seen your dog.


Can you now vamoose from my thread with your dog food business? You've seen that our Reality Online Show is generating heated arguments which has attracted lots of fans and viewers, you now want to stylishly run free dog food advert.

Is Bet8ja running free advert on BBNaija? So why do you want to run free advert on DDNaija?

Just kidding

pipe down Mr
your thread hasn't even gotten up to 2700 views and most of the views were even generated due to the argument I've personally been carrying.
and I have no affiliation with any dog food company, I'm just a dog owner who felt offended with the way you talked about his feeding plan and also other people that subscribe to the plan in an ignorant antagonistic way.
that's just my issue with you, I've even been complementing your dog and trying to give tips where I can, I don't have any bad intention or beef with your thread.
as you can see,I'm not the only dog owner you offended with your unnecessary statements so you should know you went off track
as I typed most of those messages sef I was gisting and laughing with people, I'm seriously not bothered about what you're feeding Jessy nor do I want you to switch to dry food.
I even talked about how I want to switch to homemade recipes earlier on, it's not like I have an issue with them.
currently I'm trying different recipes on my dog to see the one that sticks since he's been removed from kibble diet by me.
stop bad mouthing stuff you don't know about
