Live, Online Expert Chat on Dog Behavior Tomorrow
My dog is friendly with all dogs we meet on our daily walks, but there’s one perfectly nice poodle he always growls at. What gives?Why does my dog eat her food so fast? You’d think we were starving her!
What makes your dog tick? (Besides ticks.) Why does he behave like, well, a dog? You probably have lots of questions about your canine’s crazy behavior. Joining us with answers is Trish McMillan, ASPCA Senior Manager, Animal Behavior, who will be hosting a live online chat -- tomorrow!
To ask McMillan about your dog’s behavior, log in to our brand new ASPCA Online Community next tomorrow, Friday, October 19, between noon and 2:00 P.M. EST.

I have a 3 year old Yorkie-Poo named Ditto. He loves bigger dogs and cats and walking him with other pets around is no problem. But he is very protective about strange people, particularly if they come up behind us when walking, even if he knows them. He is very agressive with snarling and nipping but luclily has not bitten anyone......yet. I live alone and am not fearful taking him out in the dark. What could have sparked this behavior?
I just sent a comment about my Yorkie-Poo Ditto. I hope someone has a suggestion and/or a solution. He really is a good little guy......most of the time.
Its weird, my dog Angel will stand on our deck for hours and "hunt" bees. She watches them, then when they come close she snapps at them. she has gotten stung on the lip, but Im afraid she'll get stung inside her mouth or her throat if she swallows one. Her weird obsession kinda worries me.
Hi Maggie, join the discussion with Trish today at 2 so you can ask her your question!
My cat chewed off it's own penis. Should I take it to the animal doctor?
I know that the online chat happened quite along time ago but I am desperate.
I have a 7 month old mix with german shepherd who was a stray.
We found him on the street when he was about 6 weeks old and took him to the vet had a checkup he was found in perfect health and is a great dog.
Latly he has become VERY over defensive though and his agresion is beginning to scare my older mom.
I have no idea what to do...he is not an aggresive dog I know he is just defending the ppl that he loves but he's getting dangerous for anyone who comes in our yard or trys to shake our hand when he's on a walk.
pls help.
I dont know if this is the right place to get advice, but i need some advice about a dog. My boyfriend has a 7-8 year old pitbull mastive that his rescued from a shelter when she was a puppy. She was abused and was not aggressive until she got back to being healthy. Now she is aggressive towards almost every male except my boyfriend and a few others. My boyfriend has been told by his apartment owner that he has to get rid of her. Now she is causing problems with people. Him and I are looking for options on what to do. If she goes to a shelter she will be stuck in a cage and maybe put to sleep. Now we are thinking putting her to sleep is the best option. But she is so sweet to me and my boyfriend just not many others. Can anyone help us or give us any advice on what to do? Please email me at Southernchica8989@yahoo.com
I'm dog sitting for a family member and their puppy has been scratching at the windows before and after we take him out to go. I've dog sat many times but none of the other dogs have done this. Its not that important that i know its just confusing.
I am looking for suggestions...I just adopted a 6 year old beagle from a rescue shelter. He has been with me for for 4 months. He's a great dog, walks good on a lease, very friendly, etc. The first couple of weeks it seemed as though he was potty trained. Lately he has been randoming peeing on the rugs but only when we are home. I took him to the vet to get his blood and urine checked and everything came back okay which makes me think that it is a behavioral issue. He is on a walking schedule, gets plenty of exercise and time outdoors. We could go for a two hour hike and then come inside and he will randomly pee on the rug. Any suggestions? My house smells like urine. Thanks a bunch.
