OK- So, about 9 months ago my vet asked me if I wanted to get my dog tested for hw and put her on hw meds. I couldn't afford it so I said no. The vet tech took me aside and told me that the test was a scam, but she ended up testing my dog anyway for free.

Now I have another dog and I am in the same situation. I have a friend who knows a lot about dogs and thinks it is a scam too. What is the point of the test? Is it true or just a rumor that if they have heartworm and go on the meds that they will die? What are the chances of that? What are the risks???? Side effects??? Is it true that the preventative med and the treatment for heartworm is the SAME? Thanks!!!!

On Aug 11 I found 2 dead kittens in my patio. Part of the embilicle cord was still attached. The mother is nursing 2 other kittens in a secluded area of the patio, and I would like to take them as indoor pets when they are old enough to be taken from her.
I have read that kittens need to be with their mother for 6 or 7 weeks before separation. I don't know much about cats, but at that age I would think that they could climb the wooden patio fence and go their own way.
I have also read that if they are with the mother for 8 weeks they do not make good pets.
So my question is: at what age should I catch the kittens? and should I try to socialise with them before catching them? when and how should I socialise?
I put food and fresh water every day for mama, and she is not at all spooked by my being 3 or 4 feet from the nest. I have deliberately made no attempt to get any closer.
Thank you for your answer. I hope it will help me with the "adoption" process.
Harold.

She is almost a year old and if we can't potty train her in 2 weeks we must get rid of her.

I have a nice dobie, very well behaved and loving and I'm his favorite pack leader. But I also have two small children and sometimes even though he has done nothing so far I look at him and think he is a dirty beast who would maul my babies if given the opportunity. Does this make me a bad person even though I never do anything to act on it and do you think he knows I feel this way?

I really want a baby Chihuahua. I was hoping there was a breeder out there that can let me know their dog's expected weight at maturity, upkeep and cost. And how I can buy one from them. Thanks!

I read this somewhere and I don't know if it's true or not. I have a pom and we also have cats. The cats don't live inside the house, but the pom does. The only interaction the pom gets with the cats is when we take him outside to go to the bathroom. Thanks in advance.
