I really don't understand why most threads in this pet section always end up in quarrel, arguments, insults and all....why cant we all for once behave like adults and make dis section more educative for us all.. instead of all dis bullish! t we exhibit here.

I actually wonder too. . Everyone seems to be on a short circuit.

.....

..... .

And once again it all goes South. So predictable

Tylerdan:
Reading through this trend I have laughed so much my sides ache. It's amazing to see how little most Nigerians know about dogs (some of you literally flog your dogs) and someone who is afraid of dogs things a bull dog will remain "small" this is hilarious.
Based on this I'm going to find time and put up a trend to show most dog owners how to train their dogs without resorting to violences. And for those who have phobias for the canines please don't go buying dogs without sorting through why you are afraid of dogs.
Finally please to all doggies (what I call dog lovers) please go online and read about you dog breed why they are not eating, why they chew up your shoes (buy them dog toys) etc.
Dogs are family members who can't speak their thoughts let's not treat them as furniture. That dog depends on you and it's your responsibility to live up to that trust.

Looking forward to your post. Good one

Not surprised, d guy just registered yesterday.. Olx people dem. It's nice people like him entertain d pet section with posts like this#chilloutime

I guess humans also have that ability just that we actually don't rely on them.

Humans do but definitely not as heightened as dogs.

This is just a little write up on why every individuals needs a pet, but the write up is focused on dog.

Before I proceed I would like to define what a pet means according to an online dictionary.

A pet is a domestic or tamed animal or bird kept for companionship or pleasure.

1. Companionship: Loneliness can become an unwelcome companion as we age and can lead to depression as well as physical problems. Dogs mold their schedule and personality to you. They are never unavailable or off duty.

2. Dogs Help You Make Friends: Dogs can act as catalysts for human social interactions, and it has been suggested this may enhance feelings of well-being," according to one study, which found that strolling around with a dog led to more interactions, especially with strangers, than when walking solo.

"When I'm outside with my dog (Zara), I always meet new people and chat with them".

3. Exercise: People benefit from regular physical exercise regardless of their age. But it is hard to get into a regular exercise routine, and it's so very easy to skip it. Having a dog can be a good source of exercising machine for you and your family.

4. Dogs Are Real-Life Heroes: Dogs are known for their discerning noses, which can be used to sniff out bombs, find missing persons, or track down criminals. Basically, dogs are four-legged crime fighters.

5. Getting Out: Having a pet, particularly one that requires regular outdoor activity, helps you stay connected to life. You go for veterinary checkups, and perhaps you visit a dog groomer. You need to be involved in social activities.

6. Protection: A dog can provide significant security. Potential thieves will stay away from a home with a barking dog. Your watchdog may weigh only 8 pounds soaking wet, but the person on the other side of the door doesn't know that.

7. Getting Old Is Tough. After retirement, elderly people may feel like their everyday lives lack structure. Dogs, which require a fixed time for meals and walks, can help bridge that gap and provide a sense of purpose. "Dogs give a certain meaning to their lives, since the task of caring for a dog also means a great responsibility.

8. Investment: At the end of the day, having a pet means that you have invested for your future, by selling the pups and and creating an enabling environment for yourself and your neighborhood.

Just to add a few
No 1: Dogs are excellent at keeping your secret
No 2: Dogs can help a child or an individual g to over inferiority complex
No 3: Dogs give you a sense of belonging when you feel you don't fit in anywhere in the society.
No 4: By meeting people who like your dog u learn to become more outspoken.
No 5: Dogs teaches your child even at a young age that he/she is responsible for him/her therefore bringing out a confident, secured child. Others can add theirs

Namdeenero:
Mehn that's so disgusting but yea, there's a small hole where the lil puss is coming out from

.
Don't knw how hard u say it is when you press it,but u can leave it till tomao evening and see what happens but before then others might be able to proffer solution to it.

Namdeenero:
Not so big, my other pup has been licking that area since tho I stopped her

Would you say it looks like something like this without it been pressed?

Namdeenero:
Oga the lump is still kind strong when I touch it and it pains the pup, I don't think the larva has matured... Tho I haven't confirmed if its bot fly larva sha

How big is the lump?maybe more Dan just botfly

Question

What is the maximum number of times a bitch on heat can mate? (Both daily and throughout the heat period)

Answer: I feel on d 9th,11th and 13th day

Namdeenero:
Pls my pup has this lump on her skin that's causing her to scratch excessively, its kinda strong and bringing out a lil watery puss. I suspect is a bot fly larva cause my trainer took her to an open field, how do I remove it?

Answer: When you press it, a maggot like nonsense wld come out, trust me it's disgusting. Afterwards clean d affected area with spirit preferably. it's caused when the dog's fur is wet causing flies to perch and lay eggs on it. If it's bot fly u need nt worry much bout it.

Funmiladey:
Q: pls what are the early signs of pregnancy in dog, at least the first 14 days ?

Answer : You may not notice any signs during the first 2wks as its still early to determine if she's pregnant or not but subsequently you may notice increased or decreased appetite, behavioural changes, change in nipple colour, change in size of d dam, amongst others.

okabe:
Hello dog breeders and lovers, I have a pressing question and I didn't want to create a thread just for it, I was wondering if y'all would give me answers.

Okay, I want to know, what is the maximum number of times a dam on heat can/should mate?
How many times per day and how many times per heat period?

Thanks all

Good question, and to add to ur question on which days can she b mated?

Question: What is the best way to handle/prevent tick infestation?
Answer: Almost every dog owner battles with this at some point, TICKS. This has killed and ruined many kennels even when they seek appropriate help. Everyone has their own ways of handling tick problems and I also know a few stuffs that I believe would be helpful.
No 1: Am not really a fan of powder applied tick preventive methods cos every dog has their own response to these things and sometimes makers of these product don't emphasize how deadly ingesting this powder by the dog can be. So I'll rather stay off the powder.
No 2: I came across a spray called Bio-Finl of Fio- Finl(they serve d same purpose) then and I wanted to know how effective this spray was. Method of application is to smoother the dog's body with water and spray on areas like d neck, in BTW d toes, back and chest where ticks are more congested. IN minutes the result was amazing, it has a nice fragrance and it can be used on nursing mothers to prevent transmission of ticks from mother to pups as it has no effect.
No 3: For those that don't know about chemical bathe it should only be handled by careful hands. I personally use amirax 20 and it's superb but need to be handled with care so u don't kill your dog unintentionally. Method of application is mixing bout 2ml of the chemical into a big bucket of water. Make sure it's not too concentrated. Wet d dog the water at first, rinse off, apply d dog's shampoo, wash the dog thoroughly and then again rinse the shampoo with the water. This can also b used to clean their cages and surrounding but make sure that in this process the dog wears a mouth guard to prevent it from licking it's body and afterwards for bout 3days u give the dog palm oil and milk to counter any effect of the chemical.
No 4: I only use this for cleaning of their ears. Methylated spirit. I use this cos it's safe, rather that spraying inside of d the ear with chemicals. In a matter of minutes the ticks come out themselves dead and u can clean d laid eggs with cotton wool.
Sorry for the long post , other methods that work well for you are encouraged.

Mreasylyfe:
Hy guys I don't know much about dogs nd I need ur help, I have this dog nd am planning to cross it with a gsd.
pls I need ur advice bcus I love dogs but I don't know much about them, so if u know or have any info about this, pls educate me....
here's a picture of the dog... it's a female

Oga don't bother, just look for a similar dog to ur female's breed. It messes up everything responsible breeding stands for

exclusive7:
..on my side being able to have studied canines....its not a '6th sense' kind of thing....when it comes to the sense of smell,a dogs sense of smell is 9times higher n hyper sensitive than that of a man...so when u perceive just d general aroma of ur jellof rice,a dog perceives the tomatoes,onion,thyme,curry n so on....their sight is sharper than ours then coupled with good ears that could detect sound from far away...dats y they re said to have a 6th sense(its not like its there..they are just sharper)...they hear the foot steps of that stranger from far away coming to ur gate,perceive his cologne even his body odor n re on red alert b4 he knocks on ur gate n d barking begins .so that's just the magic...a super high hyper sensitivity..dats it

Nice, I agree that they have heightened sensitivity. Do you believe the myth about them being able to sense ghosts?

xreal:
Please oooo, seems I am missing something.

Does methylated spirit have something to do with ticks?

It does pretty fast but I use it only for inside the ears and d good tin is that it evaporates fast too so d dog doesnt av an issue.

xreal:
True talk.
No regrets though.
Me love them dogs.

Am sure they would love you back just as much

dabigwalls:
Bro. Where can I meet you up please. Are you in Lag? I need lessons. I'm about to start breeding dogs.

Why sir? What's d motive?

mayorall:
my friend, please take things easy. You have to show the parents and mating pictures sir. That's the rule here.

I just smile when people like him come up here thinking they can build a self esteem. Well I dnt address insults, threats or 'blanks' so I'll let him wallow in his emptiness. Good luck in selling ur so called Pedigree pups*spits*

aguizm:

I greatly appreciate the kind words, am sure we can learn a thing too from your incoming experiences with your dog

CodeineJunkiee:

You should watch your back bro. I don't take lightly to bullshiit or you might be kissing the floor soon. It's not a threat Thank God you didn't put up ur pic

Well I guess my browser was playing tricks on me,my bad. And as for the threats, d appropriate authorities have been notified. Keep it up
