Hi Everybody,
Please could anyone help me with the following questions on my 3 month old Beagle....
1) I am feeding 1 handfull of high quality Puppy food 4 times a day - is this enough as he seems to finish quickly?
2) He has a decent sized enclosure that I keep him in when I'm out and when I'm sleeping (I live in Korea so I sleep on the floor!) but he cries allot? Anything I can do?
3) Tips on training? - I have successfully taught him the meaning of "No" and "Sit" but I would like tips on - Come, stay, give a paw, roll over etc...
4) What are the pros and Cons of leaving him "intact" so he can breed?
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

read a book.

Ignore last comment

I can't thank you enough Gerard, if only I'd thought of that. It just goes to show what valuable advice a "novice" can take from someone "more experienced" with Dogs.
Is there anything else I should "read a book" on?
I eagerly await your next supercilious remark.

Gerard,
what is your purpose in using this forum,everytime i see your name attached to any post ,your either bein negative or just totally rude
to people the majority of people using this forum ,are wanting or trying
to help,why dont you just get a life!

Handfuls vary in size - my hand is probably much smaller than yours for example - could you weigh his normal portion and tell us how much he normal meal weighs? Most dogs eat very quickly - it's part of living in a pack...
How often are you out, and how long for? If you are working full time and he's also in his crate for sleeping at night, this is potentially a very long time.......
TRaining tips - actually reading a book is probably very good advice, I don't know what titles are available to you in Korea - but I believe Ian Dunbar shouldn't be too difficult to obtain......
