Some people automatically consider a dog an adult when he turns a year old. However, this is actually a tricky question. Many dogs take longer than a year to mature.

Why Are Some Dogs Submissive?If you’ve ever wondered why some dogs are submissive, as opposed to dominant, the short answer is because somebody has to be.

Using A Doggy DoorDoggy doors are a great convenience for both owners and dogs. Whether you have a puppy, a dog in the prime of life or an elderly dog, a doggy door allows your dog to go in and out at will into a safe backyard. Your dog can potty or play as he wishes. Doggy doors are not hard to install and it’s easy to teach your dog to use one.
Why Do Dogs Drool?Just about all dogs drool but it’s much more noticeable in some dogs than others. The most basic reason dogs drool is related to the same reasons they salivate, or, indeed, why humans salivate: they are anticipating food. Any time a dog starts expecting food there will usually be some drool soon.
