This is kinds gross, but what does it mean when pet fish have that long strand of poop hanging off them? I know it has something to do with their environment but I can't remember. Thanks!

I have four puppies at 6 weeks old and they've just got their first shots. I was wondering how old do the puppies have to be or after how many shots will the puppy be immuned enough so that I can take them traveling (normal errand runs) without them getting all kinds of diseases? Or getting sick?

She's been acting strange for about a week now, seeming kind of weak. I dismissed it as needing to be fed as did my mother, but today I opened the cage to spray it down with some warm water to keep the humidity up, and crawling on the bottom of her grape root are small white bugs, they dont seem to be able to fly and they're only on the bottom of the root where its damp.

I looked closer, after taking the root outside and washing it off, and the bottom of her tank seems infested with them. They're crawling everywhere but you have to stare at the bottom of her cage to see them move, and its such small movement.

Could they be from the damp wood, or the light I keep on at night?
Will they harm her, are they? And how do I get rid of them?!

Someone I work with has put a collar on a 19 week old puppy because he doesn't come when called. I believe this is TOO young. I also suspect improper training on how to use this device . I am in a position to take the puppy from them. They "purchased" this AKC puppy from our litter but have not yet paid the $. I will reclaim the pup if I can determine the proper age to begin use of one of these collars. This is the final issue I have with this individual regarding this puppy. I have had other reasons to question the treatment of this pup. We thought he'd be given a good home, but now we aren't so sure. I hate to bring discord at work, but the puppy's welfare is of more importance. If you know the proper age (6 months at earliest??) or can give guidance, it would very much be appreciated

I was told that the Sire is brown and the same height as the Mother. The Mother comes to my knee caps at the withers, (shoulders.) She is black and white. Has short hair. Is white with a large black spot on each of her sides. Black over the ears and eyes. The ears are medium, large and pointed. They first stick out to the sides then begin to droop to the sides. She has a short to medium length, slender muzzle, not long. A black nose. She also has little paint platter looking spots on her white coat. Some become more visible when she is wet. She has a medium length tail, pointed, slight curl, with short hair. Brown spots on her belly. And brown eyes, I think. She was one of 8 puppies, and all look like the Mother, whos coat is closer to medium, short though.

We first thought that she may have worms, so we got her worm medication after we gave it to her I noticed blood in her crap. I figured maybe it was the worms dying I didn't know. It's been like 3 weeks or so & her crap is the same runny is this like the norm for kittens or what God I hope not! Can you give cats imodium or something?

I heard a rumor that the cost of a Pure Bred Tibetan Mastiff would be about $40,000 +/-. Can anyone verifiy if this is true.

I heard the reason they are so expesive is because they come directly from the Tibetan monks. However, the monks do not sell them, they give them away as gifts and the people that get them, breed them with pure breds and sell the offsprings.

I am looking for a source to verify the cost of a purebred

My Suitemates found a mouse and are now taking care of it. It's a little bigger than a quarter, but has fur and open eyes and inquisitive nature, so I'm reluctant to think it's too young. If anyone knows, please response. Note: there is a link to photos of it.

We put her on new food yesterday and discovered she peed on our carpet again today. We are thinking of confining her to a room when we are at work. Once her crystals are dissolved we can try letting her roam the house to see if she still pisses on the carpet.

One that has a long life span, and not too many health problems. I need a pet that can live in the country, outside if it is too big, and doesnt require a lot of grooming. Please include breeds if its a dog.

There are dogs that look rather like German shepherds, but they're all white. What is this breed called?

I'm wondering how you should decide, I know if you don't spade or neuter a cat they can be more of a hassle, but I also know that they have a chance of getting cute little fuzzy kittens and it won't cost me a fourtune.

Help me decide?

My cat was looking out the window and it was dark out. No one was around and I was sleeping. Then all of a sudden I heard my cat meow so loud, I thought someone had stepped on her. By the time I got to her, no one was outside that I saw and no one was in the house (Thank God). One question remains, why did she do that?
