Gud pm bros. @op sorry fo derailling.
I do notice that whenever I bath my dog with tick soap or pour a liquid medication for ticks on my dog, it start reacting by jump up and down, scratching his body on anything and start digging the ground.
Is it normal pls

If could be a need to dilute the liquid medication u said since u didn't indicate the actual name to reduce the effect on ur dog?

Bennymontana:
Question- please which month of the year do female dogs come on heat?

A: Btw 6:11mnths they get to have their first heat. All breeds

To those I might have spoken to in an inappropriate manner am only human. Let's build an empire together, we all want to see Dogs and Pets as a whole to be viewed completely in Nigeria. *two fingers in d air*

Playful, caring, aggressive, noise maker, and extremely cautious of keeping herself clean and attention seeker.

But wait...there's one thing I don't get.

I've never seen a post where arcbay calls himself a breeder.
Neither have I ever said I am
Chucky234 came out openly to say he's not.
Knyte never said he is
Apitch never mentioned it
I bought a boerboel from a breeder, a male. Not even intended for breeding.
I keep mostly male dogs.
I enjoy rehabilitating dogs to breeding.

Why all this fuss about breeders? Who are the breeders?

LOL, some posts just make me laff. Well I dnt av anything to say Dan just to fold my arms and keep schooling, those who I av had communications with would say better.

Very good innovative @op.The general public has to see dogs not just as pets, animals with huge teeth, but as an extension of the family.Spread the word!!!

From the looks of things, sounds like u had a transaction done with ds dude. Well sorry bout that bit I totally feel d name calling is uncalled for. There re a lot of ways u cld av made ur plight known without d use of abusive words. Remember, u can still b banned

dharay88:

chucky234:
its useless exchange words with a certified dimwit like you.

Just ignore d attention seeker. Deny him of what he wants, Attention.

Tylerdan:
Nice thread knyte
In response to your question I'd refer you to the dogs genealogy (unfortunately in nigeria I have only heard of one breeder a rtd general in kaduna that maintenance his dogs genealogy) ok but to answer you dogs that become senile in old age tend to start to show aggressive behavior before finally getting to the all out point pls this may vary from breed to breed but since gsd are typical I'll use them as a typical example
They start to show signs of disregard for training
They become withdrawn and growl at nothing (it's believed they hallucinate).
They start to attack strangers
At this point they are almost gone.

Solution - If it's an all dog you have to put them down sadly. For younger dogs see a vet to confirm its not a missed vaccination manifesting in hyper aggressive behavior.
Prevention - breeding should be highly regulated and only mentally stable dogs with traceable pedigree should be bred.

Thanks sir, yes I know of d guy in kaduna. Thanks for shedding light on the question

Nice answers to those questions.

Thanks sir

Q- Dogs are known to go senile at some point, question is what causes it, what steps should one take to anticipate this and in a case of a trained attack dog what shld one do to avoid attacks?

Prodeegee:
this section

And every other section on nairaland, is open for the public to view and comment. Goodheads, sillyheads, brilliantheads, dullheads, troubleheads, peaceheads.

LOL, assembly of heads

wunmi590:
Please let stop this argument and let get to business, and the main purpose of this thread.

My questions:

1. Why do dogs eat their poo and what can some one do to eradicate it?

2. Why do some dogs eats or kill their puppies if not taken away from them immediately?

3. Sometimes I see people tieing clothe/rope at the waist of their bitch dogs while pregnant, why do they do that?

Cc: prodeegee, magpies, knyte, kuzee and others

Nice one wunmi590,to answer the above questions..
No1: Dog eat their poop for various reasons and I have experienced this at first hand basis in my dam when she whelped. This habit is commonly seen in female dogs who have puppies, it is done because she wants to keep the environment clean so she licks the puppies poop and wee as a way of doing that. At a particular point, even before 5wks,this habit stopped in mine but it can continue for other dogs.
No 2: some dogs experience malnutrition and in so doing they eat up not totally digested food in a way to make up for that.
No 3: In some dogs it's just a gross habit that probably started as a pup and grew up with it.
Ways to solve this include walking your dog to where it does its biznis and making sure you clean up right after, buying a whistle and having it with you whenever your dog wants to do its biznis and immediately it opens its mouth sound d whistle so loud it stops, pouring bitter substances on d poop so by d time it tastes the dog basically walks away. First things first is hygiene, don't leave poop unattended to.

Q-Why do some dogs kill their pups if not taken away from them immediately?
Also this condition can be caused by a number of reasons ranging from cannibalism, lack of recognition of the pup due to several hormonal imbalances, mastitis(inflammation of the teats), stress or fear, still born or unhealthy pups. Would elaborate on the last part(still born or unhealthy pups cos I av witnessed this before). This habit isn't restricted to just dogs alone, rabbits, snakes, chickens amongst a few display this habit too and this is cos of the dam noticing that d pup is unhealthy and would just pup extra strain on her so she would rather eat it up to gain nutrients than leave it unattended to. Same scenario happens to still born too, d dam feels sorry for d loss of her pup but instead of waste dt amount of nutrients she ingests the pup to make up for the ones she has lost and at the same time feed d ones that made it.

Q-why do people tie a cloth arnd the waist of d dam.....
A- I haven't seen this yet sha but I want to believe it's to prevent the dam from stretching too much in d stage of pregnancy. I have however witnessed using a belt or rope like object to tie d hind leg nd fore leg just enough to prevent her from stretching too.

Prodeegee:
necessarily. The earlier people begin to expect that, the better they are at dealing with bullshit.

If you ever taught in a public school, or handled a public gathering you'd know what I mean.

Well that's true relating this section to a public school . Now I see the bulls***

Prodeegee:
This isn't a rehab home. Bullshit is expected.

Not necessarily.
