Some people say that for small breed indoor dogs you don’t really have to neuter or spray them. I have a Shih Tzu. I am trying to find out what are some cons I need to know about if I don’t neuter him.

Any purebreds that have the most health issues? I just want to know because it got me curious when people asked if there are any dog breeds with LESS health issues. So I wonder which had the MOST.
Thank you in advance!
Great Danes, and English Bulldogs?
If to be mistaken, dont Golden Retrievers have some health issues too?

Does anyone remember “Pet Sparky”? I’m told it was a supplement fed to dogs to promote longevity and health.

If you don’t remember this product, but know of another that also promotes dog health and longevity I’d appreciate it if you’d share the name of the product. Thanks.
Thanks for your answer Smiley. You said your Dad used to use it. Do you know if they still make it; if not, does your Dad use a different product now?

My older dog is drinking alot more water recently. Is this a sign of bad health?

I have a 13 year old black lab. Despite being about 10lbs overweight, he seems to be in very good shape. However, he has been drinking about 5 times the amount of water that he usually does in the summer time, and we are worried that this could possibly mean he has something wrong with him.

For all you Obama supporters why did he take 6 months to choose his dog but wants health care passed asap?

I recently learned that it took him six months to choose a dog but he’s in a big hurry to pass health care. His bill will set up a “Death Panel” to decide who will get treatment and who will die. I think that he’s like that Holocaust doctor Albert Mengele.
