I have a small Chihuahua, and I was wondering how often I should bathe him. He doesn't spend a whole lot of time outside. He is only out there long enough to use the bathroom then he is right back in. Is once a week too often, or not enough? Thanks

Can dogs twist their ankles? My dog was running at the park when all of a sudden she let out a cry and she hobbled over to me. She wouldn't put her back left paw on the ground, but if I touched it she didn't seem to be bothered by it. She sat by me for a few minutes and then started...
