Pets - 27 July 2006

I've looked everywhere on the internet but I keep getting things for fish. I need an aquarium that is more wide than it is deep or tall. I've heard from the people at PetCo that going to a reptile expo is a good idea but I don't know where one is going to be happening. My mom was going to build a pond but she didn't want to spend $1000+ on it. They're in a kiddie pool for now but I just wish they could have more space to swim. I'm willing to save up for a good, big one it's just that I don't know WHERE to get one.

My Chihuahuas is a about one vet said she is 45 days pregnant that was 4 days ago and another said she is 53 days pregnant 2 days ago, I already put her in a welping box about 4 days a go. 2 days ago she is starting to be restless and trying to ageist her blanket in the box last night I wakeup and she was roaming around in my room and today she is trying to ageist the blanket about every half an hour. Is she ready to have the puppies today or not tomorrow is the vet's holiday if she is having them what should I do?

kittens outside. well first their mother who is a snowshoe siamese refuses to stay in and the kittens were born outside and were brought in because of bad weather. im not a bad owner giving the animals what they want. My siamese was an indoor cat until she found the dryer hose opening and went out the whole in the wall opening. some cats are like this i guess.

I know that rat snakes prey on chicken eggs but is it possible for my chickens to kill a rat snake? The snake was fairly large (about 3-4 ft long). Also, will the rat snake kill the chicken or just go for the eggs?

Hi, I wanted to see if I could get any ideas on what to give my dog. She was sick and now she is better but she is really skinny and all she wants to do is eat, but if I give her too much she throws it up, since I am assuming her stomch shrank. The vet said to give her beef and rice, is there anything else that I could give her to bulk her back up. Thanks !

My yellow lab is friendly and playful during the day but when dusk comes he acts like he sees ghosts! He is only three years old and I am about ready to take him to a vet because of his behavior.

I have 15 guppies, an angelfish, and a Rapheal catfish in a 30 gallon tank. Some of the female guppies are pregnant.

This is totally new and never occurred before. It is pretty hot and humid and our house is hot.

A puppy I was expecting to purchase acquired "kennel cough" from the kennel (70+ dogs) where I had placed a reserve on him. The owner is very reputable and honestly informed me of the situation. However, my concern is "How long is it possible for the pup in question to be a threat to my other grown dogs and very young puppies?" I have read in one article that bacteria can continue to shed from the infected pup for 6 to 14 weeks. I found only the one resource for this time frame. Clinical signs of active infection last around 10 days, but if there is a possibility that the disease can continue to be a threat thereafter for such a long period of time, I will probably cancel my hold on this puppy altogether. I don't want to wait until he's half grown to safely acquire him. Thanks! to anyone who can clear this matter for me.

We are a young very active, outdoorsy family with a 3 year old little girl. We go camping and ski boating alot. We would like to take a dog with us. I go to school in the mornings this semester and work 3rd shift however, my husband would be home at night. So really the dog would only be home alone in the mornings and if I have any errands to run in the afternoon. I really just want a mellow dog that's along for the ride. I hate it when dogs jump all over me or my company. What do you think the best breed would be for us?

hi all!...i was just wondering why some people spend hundreds of dollars on a pure bred dog when there are hundreds of dogs young and old in puppy pounds all over the world?...i understand that they may be mutts but still mutts do live longer and for the usual $50.00 fee you would be getting a dog thats all ready fixed and up to code on their rabies shots And the money would go to help the other animals at the shelters?...please no rude remarks...im not trying to pick on any one im just curious...thanks...love daisy

I'm interested in buying a mini rex (that's the breed) rabbit but I'm not sure if i should spend the money on a breeder or just go down to the local pet store. Also about how old should they be and should i make sure they're previously spade/neutured or do it after my purchase?

I am at school and work full time. My boyfriend is not home during the day either so it needs to be a dog that can be left by itself but also loves to be around people. I also want a cute, medium to small dog and one that doesn't shed. I have a cat so it needs to get along with other animals...any suggestions?
