Do you have a German Shepherd at home? If so, then you know that they are one of the most popular dog breeds in America. They are brilliant and obedient dogs who love to be active outside with their family.

You are not alone; many pet parents face the difficult decision to purchase a dog wheelchair for their pup. They are not too expensive but seeing your dog in the wheelchair is not a pleasant experience.

The main factor that affects how high a dog can jump is their body weight relative to the size of their legs; heavier dogs need longer legs to make up for their lower center of gravity which means they will be able to leap higher than lighter ones. 

The reason might be as simple as the type of collar or harness that you are using. Changing collars and harnesses can make all the difference in how your pup reacts when walking with their leash.

The answer lies in the breed’s genetic makeup. Huskies were bred to travel long distances with people on foot or by sled, which means they needed to communicate with their human companions over great distances.

The answer is, it depends on the weight and breed of your Yorkie. While some species will have stopped reaching full size by age 1 or 2, others may not be fully grown until they are 3-5 years old.

If you’ve been in the market for a hypoallergenic dog, then you may have come across the Yorkshire Terrier. However, many people are skeptical of this breed being truly hypoallergenic because it sheds and has an oily coat which can cause allergies to flare up.

Invisible dog fences are a form of barrier that surrounds the perimeter of your property. Usually, they have a wire that runs underground and creates an electromagnetic parameter which collar that dog wear can detect.

A recent study by the American Kennel Club found that more than 10 million U.S. households own a dog, and about 40% of these pet parents take their dogs on hikes with them! Unfortunately, dogs can’t speak, so it’s up to their owners to keep them safe when they go out hiking.

For many pet parents, the idea of fattening up their pup is appealing. However, it can be confusing to know what types of food are safe for dogs and how much they should eat in one sitting. Sometimes your dog will be on a strict diet determined by their veterinarian, but other times you may want to increase their caloric intake yourself.
