Leather Dog Collars-A Classic!

By Max Allen

Leather dog collars have been around for many, many years. When I was a small lad of about eight, my dad got my dog "Corkie", a toy collie mix, a leather dog collar. Even back then dogs had to wear a collar with a license attached.
Nowadays dogs need a tag with ID attached so you can be notified if your beloved pet ever gets lost.
I like leather collars because they are tough and durable. They can last a long time.
Back when Corkie got his collar the only color you could get was black. A plain black collar at that. No other color and no decorations were available.
Times have changed and now you can get all types and colors of leather colors. You can still get plain leather collars if that is what you really want, but why not live a little and show off your dog with a colorful, fashionable leather dog collar.
Standard leather collars now come in a variety of styles and more than one color.
Both the standard leather and the fashionable leather collar can come adorned with spikes, studs, rhinestones, or flowers. Plus you can also get bones, stars, and hearts or paw emblems sewn into the collar.
Leather dog collars come in all sizes that will fit the small Chihuahua breed all the way up to the English Mastiff.
You can get your collar in many different widths to match the size of your dog. A 3/8" wide collar wouldn't even begin to fit the neck of the Mastiff, and the 2" wide one would probably be bigger than the whole Chihuahua.
The only drawback to the leather collar is if your dog loves to swim. A lot of water on a leather collar will sometimes make the collar brittle and weaken it and it might even shrink a little. Keep the collar dry and it should last for many, many years.
If your dog is a 'water dog' then a good nylon or waterproof collar is what you need to get them when you take them to the beach or lake. Put on the tough leather collar when your dog is strutting around the neighborhood.
This season think leather because a leather dog collar is classic! It has been around for decades and will still be around years from now.

How To Stop a Chihuahua From Whining

By Lea Mullins

A whining Chihuahua is quite common; it is a way for them to communicate with their owners and families. This is the same when they communicate with their mother, is they cold or need some attention, hungry or fear they might be left behind. Generally the mother gives her pup what they need. So it's expected that your pup will communicate to you in the same way.
There is a way you can break your Chihuahua's habit of whining. The best way to tackle this problem is by taking away their reason for whining and by refusing what they require when they whine.
If their needs are adequately met then their need to whine is eliminated. This can be done by feeding your pet at regular intervals that meet their nutritional requirements and fresh water every day. Remember not to feed whenever they whine as it only reinforces their reward for action. Instead feed them when they don't whine and about the same time everyday .You will then be rewarding them for their good behavior.
These breeds love spending time and playing with their owner throughout the day. This prevents the reason for attention whining. If they start to whine ignore it and refuse to play till the whining ceases. This will also teach positive reinforcement when they behave well. Another thing you may need to consider for the times when you cannot play with them is investing in a few toys to keep them from becoming bored and whining for attention.
Dog training for your Chihuahua will also help them accept when you need to leave them alone but without them feeling abandoned. You can also do this at home by providing a room full of toys to play with. Spend some time in the room then leave for a few minutes giving them some free play time. Return after a little and sit quietly in the room and eventually work on increasing the time you are out of the room for until they begin to understand that you'll always return to them and will accept the times when you're away.
By providing your Chihuahua with all their needs is fairly simple process and will eliminate their need to whine. They soon learn that their whining gets them no where but when quiet they accumulate all the rewards.

When A Dog Bites Get A Personal Injury Lawyer

by Nick Messe

Every year, millions of people throughout the country suffer from dog bites. In our society, many people have come to think about their pets as people with fur or hair, forgetting that they are still animals and do not have the capacity to reason and think like humans. For this reason, the law holds the pet owner responsible for the actions of their pets.

Injuries can range in severity from a mild bite that doesn't even break the skin, to a vicious mauling that can cause severe injuries and even death in the most extreme cases. Some dogs, such as pit bulls, have even been banned in some areas due to their violent tendencies and propensity to cause serious damage when attacking individuals.

Many of these deaths are handled in criminal court where precedents have been set for sentencing owners to many years in prison. In addition, a victim can file a civil lawsuit seeking to recover costs from medical bills and punitive damage. In order to get the compensation that they deserve because of a dog attack, victims need to consult with a personal injury lawyer or a wrongful death attorney.

Hiring a personal injury attorney or a wrongful death lawyer can allow victims to understand whether or not their case has merits and can be successfully argued in court. In many areas, there are clear laws and regulations that govern whether or not a victim of a dog attack can win damages from litigation. In order to prove culpability, a judge or jury must consider a number of factors. The first issue that will have to be determined is whether or not the dog in question actually caused the injury.

Next, the owner of the dog must be identified. Only then can a lawsuit be filed against that pet owner. Another consideration that a judge or jury has to make is whether or not the attack was the result of provocation from the victim.

If the attack was a result of the victim having provoked the dog, the case may not have merits and may not result in an award of damages. If, on the other hand, a person was walking by and minding his own business when attacked, a personal injury award may be granted. Finally, it must be determined whether or not a person had the legal right to be in the same area as the dog when the injury occurred.

Pet owners have a responsibility to keep the public safe from their pets. Owners of any dog, particularly dangerous dogs like pit bulls, should secure their yards with fences and make sure that their pet habitats are enclosed. Signs should also be posted to warn the public about potentially dangerous dogs.

Many jurisdictions also have leash laws that require any dog in a public area be fitted with a collar and leash. Not only does this protect the public, but it is also important to ensure the safety of the pet.

Dog bites happen all the time and often result in severe and painful injuries or even death. The law holds dog owners responsible for the behavior of their pets and provides methods of receiving compensation for injuries that result from attacks. Consulting a personal injury lawyer or wrongful death attorney is the only way for victims to make sure that they receive fair compensation for their injuries.
