Question #1:

Help! What is wrong with my dog!?

So i got a bedlington terrier puppy. we went on holiday after 3 months of having him and i left him with my brother for the week. My brother said that he had been crying at night and wasn't eating as much as usual.
When we arrived home after the holiday he jumped up and was very happy. But recently, he has been crying at night (He sleeps in his cage) and if i leave the room he follows me and he has been very lazy and slept a lot since we got back.
Is he OK?

Question #3:

Why does my mums female dog hump?

My mum has a mix breed: Jack Russell, Bedlington Terrier and Whippet.

She is about 3 years old and for some reason humps family members. She seems to favour my brother and not even food distracts her.

I'm not worried about the behaviour as I know other female dogs that do it, I'm just wondering WHY?? It seems unnatural for a female dog to hump for obvious reasons.

What do you guys think?
As I said it "seems." from the point of view of someone who doesn't understand this behaviour I stand corrected when I say "seems".

Can someone elabortate on how humping is related to dominance?

I'd love to understand this behaviour.

I'd love to understand this behaviour.
We don't let her do it, we push her down and she gives up trying after a while.

So why exactly is it a sign of dominance?

Question #4:

My dog had a cancerous lump removed?

My Bedlington Terrier had a lump removed from near his willy in the groin area on 15th April 2010
He has had the lump for most of his life (almost twelve years) and I was told it was just a cyst. At the the beginning of April it enlarged and became infected, so I had it removed.
It went to analysis and the result was that it was grade 2 cancer and I was to keep an eye on him.
The vet said he had taken as much of the area away as possible and there were 'good' cells all round it, and if it came back then he could do no more.
Last week I noticed th area looked bumpy and slightly swollen. I took him back to the vet who said it looked as though it was coming back and offered steroids, that he said MAY slow down the growth but would probably make him sick, drink lots and have tummy problems. I chose not to use them. I am at a loss to know what to do, or what will happen. The area is now looking quite swollen and he has started to lick it. I have put his 'lampshade' on to prevent him licking as I am afraid it will erupt. It does seem to be progressing at a alarming rate. Anyone have any help an advice for me please

Question #5:

Would you say 'Wagg' is a good complete food for my 15 week old puppy?

I've heard both positive and negatives about the brand, so I thought i'd come on YahooAnswers and see if anyone had a lot of personal experience? :)

Thank you.

He is a Bedlington Terrier Pedigree, aged 15 weeks on Thursday.

Question #6:

Does anyone else think a Bedlington Terrier looks like a lamb?

Walking my dog today, I could of sworn I saw some one walking a lamb until my cousin pointed out it was a Bedlington Terrier. I have never heard of this dog before today.

How to stop dogs fighting?

Hello all,

I have a 4 month old Staffordshire bull terrier and my mum has a mixed breed (jack Russell, whippet and bedlington terrier.)

I regularly take my SBT to my mums, her dog always loved to see and play with her. However recently their play has been getting rougher. I ak worried this will lead to a dog fight.

Any advice?
Mums dog is 5 years.
JenVT the whole idea of asking this question was to find a better solution than having to leave her at home. That for me is last resort.

Question #13:

Question #14:

Why do YOU use an E-collar?

I use an e-collar for recalls and for un-called-for barking. That's it. Only those two things. For me, a bad recall is simply unacceptable and I cannot tolerate it.

I know there are lots of people out there who are against E-collars. So, I will give 3 reasons for my decision.

1. My Aunt and Uncle had a Bedlington Terrier. They didn't believe in e-collars. Their dog was never reliable off leash. One day, he snuck out the front door when a visitor came and would not come back when they called him. They didn't find him until a neighbor had called them and said he was at their house dead. He was hit by a care and killed instantly.

2. A friend of mine has a husky who simply ignores her when she calls him. The other day we went to walk on some trails and she ended up looking for him for half an hour before he finally came back to her. This is the 5th time he has taken off on her that I know of personally. Three of the other times she didn't get him back until someone caught him and dialed the number on his tags. On another occasion she called him away from the edge of an ice shelf on Lake Superior and instead of coming to her, he decided to jump in the frigid lake. Fortunately he was able to claw his way out with a little help.

3. Another person I know had two boxers. Both were nice enough dogs, but neither one was ever given an real corrections in their lives. They simply ignored their owner whenever they saw fit. This afternoon, one of the dogs went out on the ice and ignored the owner when she called her repeatedly. The dog fell through the ice and was sucked under by the rushing current. Her owner is probably still out there developing hypothermia looking for the dog over 3 hours later.

Me? I refuse to allow my dogs to ignore me when I call them. I know how serious it can be, and I will not take that chance. A nick from a shock collar is a small price to pay for their safety.

Why do YOU use an e-collar?

Question #15:

my 5 mouth old bedlington terrier wont stop bitting my hands and it hurts?

he is teething so is this why hes doing it. iv tried putting toys in his mouth in stead and giving him chews he wont play with his toys either jst wonts the hands help

Question #16:

Temperament aside, what dog breeds do you consider ugly?

Based on looks only.

I don't think the Clumber Spaniel is particularly pretty... but I think dogs that are ugly in *this* way, are actually very cute. Click Here

King Charles Cavalier Spaniels are butt ugly in my opinion: Click Here

Bedlington Terriers are not ugly as such, just weird-looking. They look more like lambs than dogs: Click Here

Oh, and of course the Pigbull. So unnatural. Click Here

Can we please all be nice to each other and not take it personally if someone else thinks their breed is not particularly nice to look at?
Not too keen on the Chow either: Click Here
BYBs, ugly is subjective. I know that a breed has to have its individual characteristics to make it a breed in the first place but that doesn't mean they're all easy on the eye :/
Well, I don't think APBTs are particularly beautiful-looking... not ugly exactly and they do have their character, but I they wouldn't win a beauty contest. Just my opinion,

Question #17:

What do blue and liver colored bedlington terriers look like when mature?

I've seen the puppies, one looks blue black and the other is light brown, but I'd like to see pictures of what they both look like when older. Thanks!
FYI- I have googled it and all of the adult dogs look white, which is neither black nor brown. I don't know much about the breed so I'm not sure if they all turn white or what.
NOTE: I DID google it! The adults all look white! The puppies are black and brown!

Question #19:

Anyone with experience of Bedlington Terriers?

Yes I have researched the breed, but we are getting her tomorrow (8 and a half week old puppy). I just wondered if anyone on here has ever had one, and if so what are their qualities, anything hard to train... things like that :).

Just what to expect really, and whether you think I am going to have a hard time training a Bedlington.

Thank you for any input :)

Question #20:

Is a 1st Cross whippet, bedlington terrier an ideal dog for lamping?

I have had a whippet and she was a great ferreting dog, and good on lamp. Now retired and wondering if a whippet x bedlington would have the same speed? I have thought about getting a lurcher because they are a hardier breed than a whippet.
Any information you have on using whippet cross bedlington's as ferreting and lamping dogs would be greatly appreciated, as I have trawled the internet and I am unable to find any info!
By the way I'm lamping rabbits only.

Dog Questions

The pet food recall scared us into making our own dog food at home for Blacky and Yeti. We did alot of research into dog nutrition requirements and went through alot of trial and error trying out new recipes for the dogs - seeing what they liked and what they didn't. We ended up with quite a few super yummy recipes. Our friends begged us to share the recipes with them and we realized there were probably lots of other dog owners out there that would love to try these dog food recipes out on their dogs too! So, 123 DogFood.com came into being. It really is as easy as 1-2-3.
