Crate training is a wonderful thing as long as the crate is never used as punishment. You can leave your dog in the crate no longer than one hour per month of age plus an hour. So for a 3 month old dog 4 hours max but you should build up to that. :) Good luck Have you tried crate training?? 3 months old isn’t that old and you might have a few accidents.

If your pup is a Pug, another possibility is that she just has some of that notorious pug attitude and doesn't believe that her princess feet should be getting cold. If she isn't limping once back in the warm comforts of your home, I wouldn't think too much of it. But, maybe she would appreciate some <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb%5Fsb%5Fnoss%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Ddog%2520booties%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps&tag=taholoca00-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957" rel="nofollow">dog booties</a><img src="https://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=taholoca00-20&l=ur2&o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />.

Ubels Tue, 02 Mar 2010 20:27:30 +0000 http://www.akcpugs.com/?p=38#comment-43 Hi: My pup is just over a year and she will sometimes limp on 3 legs, but it is only while in the snow. She acts as though she has frostbite but when you check the pads all seems ok. I never leave her out long in the winter. Once in the house she is back to her regular spunky self. Any ideas?? Hi:

Meyer, Pug's facial wrinkles are really important to keep clean as a dirty pug face can cause foul odors and lead to infections. In the past I have used a wash-towel with warm water with good success. I've also heard of people using antibacterial baby wipes or malaseb shampoo. Amazon.com has malaseb wipes designed for dogs which may be worthwhile trying out. Malaseb shampoo is a treatment for dermatitis in dogs, cats and horses which contains miconazole an antifungal ingredient. If your pug gets an infection I would recommend talking to your local vet. Hope that helps and thanks for stopping by, Don Hi D. Meyer,
