The adult tooth is fully grown in next to the baby one that seems like it's almost rotting. Should I just yank it out with a needle nose? Think it'll bleed or cause a lot of pain to cat? it really seems like it would just come right out.

How accurate is this method? My vet said my dog was 6 months old when i found her. That was nearly 8 years ago and from my memory her teeth has not change one bit from the day i found her. She was only 21 lbs when i found her and now shes about 47lbs. Shes half dalmation and half pitt bull. Can u tell a dog by its breed and weight also?

My dog (shepard mix) is 16-17 years old. He is hard of hearing and has cloudy eyes, but the vet says otherwise he's in great shape for his age. Our concern is that he has trouble getting up after lying down for an extended amount of time. It's obvious that sometimes he has problems controlling his back legs but he can still walk and sometimes run. Is there anything I can do or give him to help him?? It kills me to see him having problems trying to get up. Sometimes he just looks at me - almost ashamed that he can't get up. I have had him for almost 16 years.

I have 2 cats. I do not have close family in the same city, and I do not have friends who are close enough for me to ask such a favour.

I have been thinking a lot lately about accidents and came up with some "what if" questions.
What if I was in the hospital? Is there a service where they can visit your home to care for pets?
What if I was unconscious for a few days and not able to arrange for anyone to feed my cats and clean their litter?
What if I suddenly died?

Does anyone have somethign organised for their pets?

Tell me any helpful tips, information, and personal experience you have had with guppies. I have a 10 gallon and I am putting two guppies in a week until I get to 8. (Leave a little room in case any babies survive.)

My dog is about 2 years old and he gags or something. He doesnt do it everyday but every so often he will start a gagging fit (His mouth isnt open but sound like gagging)....he will do this like 10 times or something then barf. He doesnt throw up food or anything just like yellowish liquid and with some hair. He eats well and does drink water (He also hacks up juices after drinking water too fast). But my main concern is when he does this gagging fit when NOT drinking water. Like he will just be chillin in his crate with his food bowl there with food and do this...Hes been doing this ever since I got him when he was about 6 mos old......Anyone have ANY idea what this is or what is going on? And is there a cure for it? I am getting tired of cleaning it up.

I finally decided after much thought and reaserch that a shih tzu is right for my family. Some dogs bond with many people and some choose only one person to get close to, I was wondering how the Shih Tzu is in this area. I just really want a personal opinion from people experienced with the breed.

Thank you very much,

9 month old puppy, super active, injured his knee, vet told me to keep him really calm, complete bed rest for 2 weeks, kind of hard to do since all he wants to do is play, vet offered tranquilizers, may have to take her up on it, any other ideas out there?

I have 3 cats and have moved one of their litter boxes to a new location. They know where it because they are using it. However, I keep noticing urine and poop in the place where their box used to be. I've tried spraying the area with carpet cleaner, that Urine Gone from TV (doesn't work, so don't bother), and I've tried putting other stuff in that area, but they keep doing it. I'm not sure which one it is either or if it's more than one. I have 2 females (1 adult, 1 kitten) and 1 adult male. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated!

I'm a landlord and I've got a real strong potential tenant. They've got a cat. I've heard lots of horror stories about cats destroying carpet, very strong urine smell, etc. Is there anything I can put on the carpet that will discourage a cat from using it as a toilet?

We have always scolded him when he catch him. As soon as we take it out of his mouth (mud or clumps of grass), he will run and get another one. How do I get him to stop?

I was riding my Tallassee today, an American SadleBred, and we had a good ride for a little while trotted some galloped a little. She ate a little grass alongside of the road. But all of a sudden she lowered her head like she wanted grass, then went down. It was like her legs just folded under her. Then she stood up looked groggy, and wouldn't move for a long time. Just stood there , Like in a daze. Then after a while, she acted fine. I called the man who takes care of them for us and he came out, and she seemed fine. Has anything like this ever happened to any of you? Do you know what it could be? I love my Tallassee, I hurt just thinking of her being sick. Could it be she ate something wrong?
