Appenzeller Mountain Dogs: Frequently Asked Questions
Who wrote this web site?
Let me introduce myself.
Are you a breeder? I'd love to buy one of your puppies.

I'm bringing home my puppy next week. Which pages should I read first on your web site?

What kind of personality does the Appenzeller Mountain Dog have? The good points and the bad points?

There is an adorable Appenzeller Mountain Dog puppy at the pet shop. The store manager assures me they only buy from good breeders. Could this be true?
Absolutely not. There are no good breeders -- none -- who would ever place one of their puppies in a pet shop. Visit Appenzeller Mountain Dogs in Pet Shops
Do you recommend male puppies or female puppies?
There are advantages and disadvantages to each! Visit Males versus Females.
How can I pick the best Appenzeller Mountain Dog puppy from a whole litter?

My Appenzeller Mountain Dog barks too much (or chews my belongings, runs away when I call her, etc.). What can I do to stop these behavior problems?
Most behavior problems stem from either miscommunication (you may not have clearly gotten across to him exactly what you expect) or disrespect (he may be deliberately ignoring your wishes). Visit Respect Training Program.

What is the best dog food I can buy for my Appenzeller Mountain Dog?
Real food! Visit The Best Food For Your Appenzeller Mountain Dog.
Which shots does my dog need?
Many vets are not giving their clients the latest information on booster shots. Visit Vaccinations...Needed or Not?
My vet doesn't agree with some of the things you've written about health care.
That's not surprising. There are two veterinary organizations in the United States. They disagree on the most important canine issues such as feeding, vaccinations, and dental care. Your vet no doubt belongs to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). The health information on my web site comes from vets who belong to the American HOLISTIC Veterinary Medical Association (AHVMA). Visit The Right Vet For Your Appenzeller Mountain Dog for more information on the crucial differences between these two organizations.
I have a web site about Appenzeller Mountain Dogs and I'd like to add your link to my site.
