If he wants a dog that is that devoted to him is he prepared for the possibility of separation anxiety? As far as small and little grooming... Cavalier King Charles Spaniel or a Poodle are typically good breeds (sorry I may not have the King Charles names in the right order). It all depends on his definition of SMALL and no grooming. Personally I don't think a poodle requires a lot of grooming because they go to a groomer to be groomed. (which means I don't have to do it) If a little larger is what he considers to be small. Then Australian Cattle Dogs are AWESOME! I'm a little partial I grew up with them As many dogs as I have had and been around I have noticed that the person that does the training and the fun stuff is a lot of times the person the dog picks to be "their person". Hope all this helps. Good luck!!! my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Senior Dogs > Balling up rugs?

Murphy Did someone say- COOKIE?     Barked: Mon Jun 18, '12 6:50pm PST  Oh yeah!!!! Gotta rearrange my bed sometimes. Mom says her Great Dane did the same thing so she used to buy him old couch cushions to scratch up and fluff. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

I used to do the same thing and now I have some separation issues we are working on. Ignoring and pushing me away has worked the best. Until I calm down. I have learned that I will not get any attention until I am calm. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]

Murphy Did someone say- COOKIE?     Barked: Thu Jun 14, '12 6:46pm PST  I would agree with the others. If you need a nail trim soon talk to your vet about it. If you have a serious fear of nail trims some really light sedation may even be needed. As your new mom probably knows it can take a long time for us fur babies to overcome our nail fears. Good luck and enjoy your new awesome home. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become pals [notify]
