My frenchton pup just turned 7 months old today. 3 days ago she was spayed. When is the right time to start transitioning her to adult food?

I have a 6 month old frenchton who is as stubborn as a old mule. She is strong and muscular. Every time I take her out to potty, she almost snatches me down. When it's time to go back inside, she literally drags me. I've tried the stopping and standing in my spot till she relaxes, but that never works. She just continues to choke herself till she throws up. How can I get my pup to be calmer on a leash? I've also tried harnesses to no avail. Also she has started jumping up and trying to nip everyone in the face and will grab hold of pants legs and get aggressive. I bought a dremel to cut her nails (they're like razors) and she freaked out and bit me. How do I get her use to it or is there a way to calm her? I need help and advice please 🙏 😩
I'm needing opinions on 4health dog food. I'm currently feeding my pups purina puppy tender and crunchy. I'm looking into something that has more benefits to it for digestive and urinary health. I've been trying to do my research on the 4health brand & I see that it has pre/probiotics for digestive health also vitamins for urinary health and all the other necessary vitamins. I've also looked at purina one small bites but there's nothing for urinary health only digestive health. I've seen many mixed reviews on 4health which all dog foods do. That they do not have the backed research like purina. Is it really necessary to have the urinary health? I just feel like the current food is not giving them the benefits they need but I also can't afford to buy a ton of supplements to give either. I need a good budget friendly food that will cover all their needs.
I have a 3 story A frame home located in florida. The 3rd story I basically used as an attic. The only ventilation is a window. It gets super hot up there & has now started to develop mildew. We use to have an attic fan pulling the air out but it was running our power bill sky high. It recently quit so we installed an exhaust fan. One fan pulling air out & one pulling air in. What are some things we can do to help with the mildew & also the energy cost?
Photos attached are
*ladder access
*wall that has a hole that use to be a window but now is just an access to another small room that we don't use.
*the rest of 3rd story with the exhaust fan in window
*the front of the home that has the shut off room that we don't access through the old window. So no way to put ventilation there.
The only way is at the single window. I've looked into adding an attic tent over the ladder access but not sure if that'll help. Any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.
I have a 3 story home. The 3rd story is used as an attic. It has no way of getting air to it from the central unit. We once had an electric attic fan that helped alot but it recently quit & it ran our power bill up almost $250 extra a month so we were glad to be rid of it but unfortunately we are now having mildew problems up there. My husband installed an exhaust fan that has one fan blowing out and 1 fan blowing in. Since then that's when the mildew started & the heat up there is ridiculous. Any tips or tricks to try and fix it without running our power bill up?

I've been feeding my 4 month old frenchton purina puppy tender and crunchy beef. She recently started choking on it to the point of vomiting. Which she eats like a hog and gobbles her food quick. I found her some iams small breed puppy to try her on that is chicken. This is day 2 of trying it & while it's helped with the choking she now has TERRIBLE gas & soft but still firm poops. She had gas on the beef but NOTHING compared to now. Should I keep giving it to her to see if it clears or should I look for another alternative? I found one other puppy food that has lamb and is small pieces. I also read that salmon is good too.

Anybody else's Boston stubborn when it comes to potty training? Zoey is a 4 month old frenchton mix. I've had her 2 months now. She does great in a kennel since I made the space in it smaller & slowly extending it. She still has a problem when being out. I try to take her out every hour when I'm home but she still has her accidents. She has started going to her bochi sisters kennel & peeing in it also goes to the big bed I put for them to share in my living room & pees in it too. My bochi is 2 years old & learned potty training very quickly& can be left out all day without an accident. I'd love to be able to do that with zoey too but I have to watch her like a hawk. Please tell me it gets better 🙏
Need recommendations on which adult dog food to get once my pup is old enough for the switch. I was planning on getting the purina one small bites but I was told by a friend to use the sportmix from tractor supply in the red bag. I know sportmix would be more budget friendly but I don't want issues from it being a cheaper brand. Has anyone else had a frenchton on sportmix & skin and coat still be in good shape?

I have an 11 week old frenchton puppy. She has done great at night in a kennel/crate. Goes out to potty about 7:45pm then goes out at 5:15 the next morning. No whining and sleeps great. I leave for work at 6:30 am & she stays in the bathroom with a potty grass pad and uses it. I get home around 3pm & I take her out again. I try to stay on top of taking her out every hour but even after taking her out she comes in and potties in the floor again and on my rugs. I quickly gather her up and take her out. Any tips on how to better manage this? I know she's still a baby.
My frenchton girl is currently 11 weeks. I've been trying to do research on when to get her spayed. I've read they can have an increased risk of IVDD that to delay spaying till 12-18 months because their joints haven't fully developed. I read another thing that said 6-9 months is ok. So when should I actually plan to get her spayed?
Located in Florida. I have a coworker who was talking to me about her situation and I'm hoping someone can give me some advice to pass along to her. She has been married only 4 months and just recently her and her husband have seperated & don't plan on getting a divorce as they can't afford it. Per an agreement he still lives on the property in a camper but not in the home with her & her 3 children. Before marriage she was getting foodstamps for her & the Kids because she is low income but once she got married they stopped due to the higher combined income. Now that the husband is moved out what does she need to do? Reapply? I read something that stated she'd need a statement from him saying he no longer lives in the home. If so how should it be worded to help her out? What else would be needed? Would she get approved even though he's still on the property? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I keep getting emails that someone is trying to change my password. I tried to login and it send a code to my email then it pops up a phone number that another code is sent to. Someone gained access to my account and changed the phone number so I'm unable to login. I called customer service and all they told me was to create a new account. I'm not sure what if any cards were saved to that account. What can I do? Is there a way to do an online chat?
I have a 9 week old frenchton puppy who is currently using puppy pads. When im home I do take her out often and she does great outside. When I'm at work she stays in her play area and uses her potty pads. When she's out playing she Sometimes potties on my rugs/floor and I quickly clean it up. Someone suggested "litter" training her. That a potty pad resembles a rug so that's why she pottys on them. My question is if I was to try litter training will that help stop the potting on the floor and rug? If so what "litter" do yall recommend?

My girl is a 7 week old frenchton. At the moment she's battling a case of giardia. The vet put her on a bene bac probiotic for the next few days. My question is is a probiotic necessary once she gets better? If so what are some recommendations? Would it need to be given daily? Could I keep her on the bene bac and give to her once a week for maintenance as the instructions state? Just wanting to keep her in the best health.
