She is a very small dog and has a lot of hair so it's kind of hard to tell. She also was chubby when we got her a couple of months ago from another family that didn't want her. We had already had a male puppy that we got last christmas and it's impossible to seperate them we're in the same house! We came home one time and caught them in the act. I have notice she isn't able to keep up with us on our walks and she has less energy than before and she isn't eating as much. Also, I woke up one morning to her throwing up in my room and she has a couple of other times. I don't want to transfer human signs of pregnancy to our dog but it seemed like morning sickness and i guess she has gained a couple of pounds around the stomache area. Please help....i'm only 20 and i have no idea what to look for!

Our 8 year old Jack Russell Terrier was crate trained as a pup. We had her completely housebroke, then one day she began having accidents in the house so we began the crate training all over again. Now as she gets older she will even go in her kennel. Sometimes even in her food dishes. When we put her outside on her runner, she'll come up on the porch and leave her "presents" there as well. She has even been known to hold her "movements" while outside and wait until she comes back in. We are moving to a new house and hate to make her an outside dog, but don't want the new floors ruined with her accidents either. What can we do? Help!

I can't have my male bunny neutered due to him having retained testicles and although he was an excellent house bunny, using his litter box and only becoming the one bunny destruction team when faced with a paper product. He is now urinating on my bed and sofa whenever given a 20second window in his supervision. I really want to get him back into good habits and have bought a couple more litter boxes but this doesn't seem to be working. Can anyone help?

9 month male australian shephard. He is WILD and loves to harrass my chihuahuas and kittens and jump on people. So I want to get him a play mate so he doesn't harrass any of us.

Don't want to get another australian because what if its wild just like him. Don't want pitbull because I'm afraid it may bite my chihuahuas.

Does it make their tails more sensitive or possibly uncomfortable for life?

Maybe dogs who have had that done to them don't like people touching their tails because they remember the pain from the first time someone touched it.

The jerks who had my girl first docked her tail and she doesn't like her tail to be touched at all.

I don't know if it could be that, or just a little quirk that she has. I just know that everytime I have to touch her tail for anything, she turns around as quickly as possible so that it can't be touched.

She's acting normally, so I will just wait to bring it up to the vet at her next appointment, unless of course it's really painful for her.

I have a male husky who suffers from seperation anxiety. I already have another husky to occupy him but he still has issues. He is an angel when we are home but if we leave he goes ballistic. We have hundreds of toys for them and are exercised well but we can not break this bad habit. I have spent hundreds in replacing the things that he has destroyed. He managed to get in our cupboard and eat a huge box of chocolates wrappers & all. I am thinking of getting a shock collar and setting up the web cam. Any other ideas?

I picked up a rescue dog from an animal shetler yesterday, they said he was a Polish Lowland Sheepdog. I find it hard to beleive that a dog of they type was not claimed at the shelter and was wondering if anyone could help me verify what type of breed this is. He is darling, shaggy and has a wonderful personality. Is approx 1 year old, has long beige/white hair with a soft undercoat and a purple tongue!!!! he is about 20 nches high. I have pictures that i can send for verification.

Animal rights is the idea that animals have rights like people and should not be used for our purposes (such as draft, wool, meat, milk, eggs, experimentation, companionship, etc.)

Animal welfare is the idea that animals can be used and owned by humans as long as they are treated well.

OR, if you are not firmly in either category, why not?
AND, if you disagree with my generalized descriptions of each group, why?

P.S. I have a dog so obviously I am in the animal welfare category, but I am not "against" anything, just curious about your beliefs :-).
