It's the effect of calcium tablets I'll advise op ti stop it and Let the bones grow strong naturally.

calcium tablets don't make your dog grow tall.
they only strengthen your dog's bones and ligaments.

IJBNSH:
His name is Maxx, and his aggressive and playful as well. Just as little has he his

seems you already like him
you can still take care of him if you want, as far as you take care of him well you'll enjoy him

IJBNSH:
It was much in my mind it was a mixed breed lol

like how much? if it's too high then he cheated you

IJBNSH:
I guess as much but why are people wicked?? A vet sold him to me and was telling me it a mixed Eskimo and Samoyed.

if you want to know if a dog has local dog genes in it, look for the white marking on it's toes and tip of it's tail, some also have on their chest.
then also, local dogs have bony chiseled faces unlike foreign breeds so you can also tell by the way the dog's face is.
it's not a bad dog tho I just hope he didn't charge you a lot for it

IJBNSH:
IamAnderson MrrKay

MrrKay:
I concur Bro. We just pray for life, it gonna be a reality.
Trust Roscoe is during great.

sure

MrrKay:
Though he has no intention of using Chaze as a stud.
I'll talk 2him when the time reaches.
Cos chaze needs to have decendants aswell.

if you use that dog as a stud with Xena....the pups will be outstanding

MrrKay:
Please I'm kinda confused here IamAnderson Vincentjk Which breed is this guy A close pal owns this. Some call him full breed BOERBOEL Some call him NEOPOLITIAN MASTIFF
It looks like a cross breed of Neo and BB

I think it's a BB I can't even see any trace of Neapolitan mastiff in it.

vincentjk:
Happy birthday Roscoe boy... He looks sweet

thanks bro

Wait.. You mean a one year old cauc can't break chicken bones when fried.. They must have been boiled before frying..
Also do you boiled them with maggi, salt before frying..
Cos I am buying fish head for my 5 mood old dog

he can actually break chicken bones but the thing is that chicken bones splinter and can cause tears in your dog's intestine or even choke the dog.
I remove the strong bones and leave only the brisket bones and since it's frozen chicken it means the bones will be softer so they are safe for him.
you'll know the ones you should remove when you're preparing chicken for your dog.

And I usually give him boiled chicken or raw chicken, depends on where I get it from. the oney you're seeing in his plate that I fried are just the remnants from the kilo he ate earlier today.
I just fried them as a treat for him it's not how he usually eats meat.
and yes I season the meat when I'm cooking with maggi, chicken flavour and little salt

last pic still 11 months, happy birthday boy

this is the most recent, he was 11 months old here, sorry the pic is blurry, it was taken inside at night

still 10months

10 months

Roscoe at 4 months

Roscoe at 3 months

Roscoe at 4 weeks the day I got him

since I didn't post pics of him today I'll just post old pics I haven't uploaded here before instead

agboedeh:
Nice one Anderson.... The bones tho!!!

don't worry I removed them before serving.
even the ones I gave him before were deboned, thanks for your concern tho.
the pic was taken before I even called him to eat.

so today is his birthday
he's officially one year old today lol.
one year of no sickness, ectoparasite infestation (ticks,fleas or mites), accidents or injury. he has never even had a fever before and his vet book is empty except for vaccinations.
I had to do something for him for saving me the stress of treating any sickness or injury
I got him a kilo of chicken to enjoy himself, and I prepared it with some vegetables and served him earlier today(forgot to snap it tho).
this evening I fried the remaining pieces and gave him to snack on let him enjoy today lol
happy birthday Roscoe

MrrKay:
Well detailed Bro!! Meanwhile Happy Birthday to our Boy, nw Man (ROSCEO)

lol thank you for remembering he has been eating chicken throughout today for his birthday lol

vincentjk:
I like your write ups... Well explained

thanks bro

PAQ:
Caucasians Pros and Cons are;

CONS:
. Difficult to train for the inexperienced dog owners.
. Very aggressive and stubborn.
. Need regular grooming and ticks management.
. Expensive to maintain (feeding due to its size, medical bills).
. Barks alot and very loud.
. Difficult to take for walks if not properly trained cos it will walk u rather than u walking it.
. Needs regular exercise or can get bored and destructive (not a couch potatoe like mastifs)

PROS
. Better looking and more intimidating than an average GSD
. Great guard dog and 24hrs alarm system
. Less prone to hip dysplasia than a GSD.
. Great pain tolerance due to thick fur (it was bred to tackle wolves and bears, protect sheep).
. Independent dog, so it needs little to no training to be a guard dog, naturaly aloof with strangers, and territorial.

German Shepherd Pros and Cons;

Cons;
. If u go for the long coated GSD u will face the maintenance, grooming cost of the Caucasian.
. They bark alot too, but not just as loud as a CO.
. Due to poor breeding in Nigeria u may be unlucky to get an overly playful and fearful GSD that welcomes strangers.
. Prone to hip dysplasia, especially the slant back GSD.
. A GSD can never match the strenght, tolerance and guard instincts of a Caucasian. But they are still very strong dogs, a good GSD will not back down either.
. GSD also needs regular exercise.
. Pure breed GSD are hard & expensive to get, even in America, what u can get easily there are Alsatians, Shiloh shepherd and King shepherds (they are all similar to GSD but larger and straight backs).

PROS
. Very intelligent, easy to train, loyal and alert.
. Long coats are beautiful dogs but not fiercely looking.
. Not bred to be independent, so they will always be by ur side.
. Short coats are easier to groom and less costlier to maintain.
. A very good guard dog too, but not as good as a caucasian.
. A GSD can easily live indoors unlike a Caucasian.
. A GSD will hardly turn against its owner unlike a Caucasian, whom is more independent.

Both are great dogs, its just a matter of the owners experience and Choice. Most Caucasians in Nigeria are GSD cross, so u still get a little bit of both sides. If you are not experienced with a small space dont get a pure caucasian, u may regret it. A long coated GSD will turn heads and give u less stress. I had a Caucasian GSD mix, the best dog ever, but she sadly died last year.

this is actually the most unbiased comment on this thread.
the truth is that they are two different dogs.
it all depends on the type of guarding you want.
if you want a dog that'll work with you then go for a gsd, if you want a dog that'll eliminate any threat go for a cauc.
I'll admit gsds are more agile, easily trainable and get used to the urban life easier but the Caucasian is stronger, more aggressive, more independent and overall more lethal.

Caucasians aren't meant for this urban lifestyle, if you want the best for your cauc then let it roam around your fenced compound or farm, exercise it and watch it's instincts bloom.
you can't expect a dog that was bred to be a killer to live in a tiny kennel or with a chain on it's neck and with 30min- 1hr walks once or twice a week as it's only form of exercise to live up to it's expectations.
caucs can be trained to do a lot of things people think they can do also, because the gsd is more intelligent doesn't mean other dogs are retarded.
and forget all this aggression talk, a Caucasian is very docile and loving to it's family, they are only aggressive towards intruders and threats.
if you have a good relationship with your cauc it won't direct it's aggression to you.

the gsd is also a remarkable dog, I don't need to talk about their strengths because we are all familiar with it's work , but it's pure delusion if you think a gsd can do the work of a cauc(guarding prisons and farms from wild animals), a gsd just isn't strong enough and that's the truth.
the gsd is not a very powerful dog, it's agility is top notch but it doesn't match in strength.
same way a cauc cannot do the work of a gsd, a cauc cannot work with the military and obey orders and execute them as gracefully as a gsd.
they are two different dogs for two different purposes stop all this comparison.
they both have their strengths and weaknesses, choose the one that matches your lifestyle

Rooneyflex:
lies bro
an ekuke once fought with a caucasian in my street and the ekuke seriously injured the caucasian and the owner of the caucasian carried his dog and left
the ekuke u guy are downgrading is strong enough to beat a caucasian

when my dog was 4 months old ekukes used to try to attack him when we're walking but since he turned 9 months old, they don't have mind to run up again.
they just stand from far and bark and if he comes closer, they go farther.
when he was 10 months old he chased an ekuke of 9 years away, like it ran so fast and went to look for it's owner .
the funny thing is that my dog isn't even aggressive towards them, he just wanted to check them out.
imagine what would have happened if he was a fully grown adult that wanted to attack them.
most times people misunderstand situations because of the size of the dog.
a cauc of 7 months can be bigger than an adult Alsatian which will automatically make people that don't know about the breed to assume it's an adult.
so if they see a cauc of 5-7 months losing a fight they'll come to nairaland and brag that they saw a cauc loose

and also this mentality of "the bigger the dog, the weaker or more docile it is" also fuels this thing.
a Caucasian might be big but that doesn't mean it's slow or docile, lions weigh more than twice their size but can you call a lion "big for nothing"?
and for somebody to say that Caucasians aren't aggressive shows that they don't know anything about the breed, they haven't even seen a pure bred or adult cauc before or they haven't had a confrontation with them.
some people think that because the dog let you touch it outside the compound or didn't immediately pounce on you outside the compound it isn't aggressive
if you want to know about the breed then ask the owners of the dogs or read up online from people that train or raise them.
"docile" or "weak" or "not aggressive" isn't in the vocabulary of words used to describe the breed.
don't come here to act like you know the breed just because of "one I saw in my street"

space9880:
yiu have not seen a Caucasian

don't mind him it's probably a puppy he saw fighting an adult ekuke or a very impure cauc. a pure bred adult cauc will have an ekuke for lunch

wizi44:
macgyver1 I will take it that you already did the mating session before we advised you

yeah it seems so, the dog is barely up to a year and she's already had her first litter
see how immature she looks compared to the male

[quote author=Macgyver1 post=81751771][/quote]was this dog even up to a year?

MrrKay:
IamAnderson how old is she now

She'll be 5months on Sunday Born April 1st.

she's tall wow

MrrKay:
Hello Petlanders.
Sorry I have not been able to update this trade, just city circumstances.

So by yesterday I took XENA to the vet after monitoring her closely and confirmed she have lost appetite which have resulted losing weight and also affected her growth and development.

She was dewormed via injection
And the doc also affected insisted or giving her anti rabies vaccine
So she equally got her anti rabies certificate.

After which we took some pics though it wasn't easy.

how old is she now?

Braintrain:
I love his fur what are you grooming tips please

I groom him every weekend.
I give him a bath with shampoo/conditioner and amitraz, then blowdry or towel dry his fur.
when it's dry I comb it out and remove all the detached fur to avoid tangles.
then I clean his ears and brush his teeth.

his fur is very soft,fluffy and tangle free
no ticks or lice too, I don't think he has ever gotten a tick infestation before.
since I got him I've only removed 4 ticks from his body
