My chi was bit this morning by my other dog. My chis is 4 lbs. and my other dog is 100 lbs. Her little jaw was swollen and I applied ice and the swelling went down. However, she won't eat or drink anything and if anyone makes any sudden movements or tries to pick her up she yelps and yelps. She didn't do this before. She was very playful and outgoing prior to this. I've caught her standing in one spot for like 10 minutes and not do or say anything. I understand the trauma she's been through and this has all happened like in one day, but will she get better.

I got a my puppie at 6 months old. I recieved him from a pet store on a impulse buy. I love my little guy so much that my husband at times does get a tad jealous, hey my doggie is a Lhapso Apsa and he is the cutest thing! My question is...are dogs in certain countries treated well as my doggie? I am so scared that in primitive countries that they abuse animals. Are dogs abused in primitive coutries?

Do you think a owner of an animal should have final say as to when to put a pet down or should the animal be left to live its life and pass away when nature calls? I believe owners should have a say but many people I know say nature should have the call. Whats your opinion? Any examples of why?

Yesturday morining I check my kitten to see if she has fleas, I first check the ear because thats where the fleas are then when I see stuff that looked like fleas I took one out of that area and I freaked out, I called my sister for reassurance and when she felt it, it felt flaky but I was half asleep so I still feaked out. When I came back from work I went straight to the bathroom to try to wash the flea eggs off but when I was done there was no "flea eggs" anymore so was it flea eggs or dandruff??

My mom is so mad at me because of what I did to the dog. See I was house-sitting our dog- a German Sheppard- and its a girl so she's gentle. I was on the couch eating Dunkin Donuts and was trying to enjoy the TV. I decided I wanted the dog to join me on the couch. So I signaled for her to get on the couch. But she wouldnt. I signaled again and said "Sasha!" But she wouldn't budge- she looked frightened. I dont get it- just because Im a big man or something. Finally I got really pisssed and I grabbed her by the collar chain and forced her up on the couch next to me- and hit her hard in the nose for disobeying me! She yelped but I didnt care- she had no right to not listen to me. She yowled in pain but I forced her to stay on my lap for the rest of the evening- and to punish her more I didnt feed her or give her water. Anyways my Mom noticed the dog was acting funny when she came back and scolded me for doing it. Im a young adult (20s) in case anyone cares. So why do people think this?

He was neutered when he was six months old. He is now 11 years old. Up until these last two months, he was quiet. Since he got out, accidentally, he's been yowling all the time-he gets really bad at night,. He paces from door to door to window. I've tried time out in a carrier. That just made matters worse. I've tried giving him special attention. I've tried ignoring him. I even put him out when he got so loud, I couldn't concentrate on anything and he was waking up my husband. We live in a one bedroom apt. We have two other cats-one younger male-one elderly female, both spayed, neutered- so he's not lonely. He's been aggressive with them too.

He is healthy and eliminates fine so no problems there. I even tried putting in ear plugs. Not a good idea on a regular basis.

Help. We are having a hard time sleeping and I'm starting a new job. At this rate, we may have to have him put down. He bites strangers so adoption is not an option. We love him a lot, but he is driving us nuts.
