He bites, growls, urinates, and scratches me.

If he sees me playing with another dog, he waits until I am alone with him and then he terrorizes me. I'm afraid for my life and I think he may kill me soon.

On one occasion, he began biting my face but I threw him off, only for the foam in his mouth to get worse as he kept growling and backing into the corner. He looks like he's having seizures but then darts towards me and begins to bite.

He bites hard and I don't know how to punish him.

Serious, I can give her food and even her favorite treat, and when I get home from work, she'll greet me at the door for a few minutes, then go eat her treat or the food in her bowl. I'm trying to figure out the reasoning behind this. Or why she does it. I don't view this behavior as bad, I'm just curious as to why?

We feed him in the morning, at lunchtime and again at 9pm. For the last 3 nights he has left his last meal. He isnt ill, he still bounces around and eats all of his other meals. Is it too early to reduce his meals to 2 bigger ones and leave out the last meal? He is a chocolate labrador so usually eats anything in sight!

Since she was adopted, we dont know much about her past. She's about 5 - 8 years old. She doesn't play either. She just follows people around. I'm worried that there might be something seriously wrong with her. Help!

When I got him, I bought the Zoo Med:Hatchling Aquatic Turtle Food, and I've had him for about 2 weeks now. I'm really not sure if he REALLY has eaten anything, but I havent seen him once yet. And, wat stinks is, the food dissolves into the water in about an hour after I put it in the tank! ANY TURTLE EXPERTS OUT THERE??????? P.S.- I also would like to have a website dedicated to Yellow Bellied Turtles... Any1 who can give me both answers... I will vote them for my best answer!:)

My puppy is just a year old, so I found this odd at first. It looked first like just hair was falling off, but after a while it looks like a wound, the hair just fell off. And when you touch it, it was a little sticky, and now it's hard, I'm not sure why it's happened. Does anyone's dog have similar wounds?

I'm moving soon, and I'd love to have my hermit crab in my carry-on luggage. The airline (Nortwest Airlines) permit certain types of pets, but I have not read any regulations regarding hermit crabs on their site.

Has anyone done this? Could a crab in the cabin be considerederd a hazard? Surely no passengers would have hermit crab allergies?

Thank you.

I have a Boer-cross show goat that is not trained to walk at all. He isn't even used to people. With alot of animals, special treats often work to get them used to people. Can anyone recommend a treat for a goat, that will not effect him in any way (muscle loss, tummy ache, ect)

First- I AM NOT TRYING TO SELL ANIMALS TO LABS MYSELF! My problem is that there are some 5 month old stray cats in my neighborhood which I've become very attached to and would like to try to find homes for. I can not find a local shelter that will take these cats since they are technically feral. They have become very trusting of me and allow me to pet them since I feed them daily. I am willing to use my own money to have them spayed / vaccinated, and would like to find homes for them afterward.

However, I know that it's bad to offer free animals, because people will take them just to sell to research labs. I would like to ask for a small fee, which I will then donate to the ASPCA or other such organization. My only problem is that I don't want to ask for too much money, otherwise people won't want to take them. Does anyone have any information that can help? I am in central Jersey if that matters. Please do not recommend an org. unless you know they take strays.

We have been together since before he was born but in recent years he has become more cantankerous.We have children and grand children so it can be quite chaotic(That's an understatement).Normaly he just get's out of the way by lying under my chair(The only way I can guarantee a seat) a place he can be found often.The problem is he has started to become uneasy with the people he grew up with to the point he is scaring my wife.He is very much my dog going crazy When he sees me.What can I do to stop him growling?.

I was given a homeless puppy that appears to be about 8 weeks old. It looks like a pit bull puppy from pictures online. How could I tell? Is it too dangerous to risk with a child that is now 3?

We've gotten a 4-5 month old cat today. I was wondering how long it takes for him to get comfortable to the house and everyone around him?

Any other tips that I/We should follow to make the cat feel good around the new house?

-Thank You :)
