Since a while there..my dog has become very annoying..whole day..just like that for nothing..she keeps on pleading,yapping and growling..whole night she disturb us...with that..we can no more have a proper sleep..During the day..i let her loose..she has her freedom..also i end up having always lots of surprise with her..she poop and pee where that please her..she is going to be a yr soon..and her behaviour is not improving..she did it in her cage as well..when we put her out..she just think about playing..she wants to eat when she wants..when we gave her food..she plays around and sit and watch us..Sometimes whilre playing with her..she just ends up caming infront of us and pee with no shame at all..i prefer her when i was 3months..atleast she has some manners and was not doing her things in her cage..sometimes it's so disgusting and it's all on her..seems to me..she enjoys playing in her pee..sometimes she even drinks her pee..my dog is no more a good neat dog..

I found this pretty little all black kitten in my yard on Friday 13th, (cool) I got a litterbox some sand and put him in it. Well he uses the box only once, doesnt cover it, then poops somewhere else in my house (arrrrrrrrh). I really want to keep this kitten but I am so tired of cleaning up poop! Please give me some suggestions.

After recently losing my dog to an infection, God rest her soul, i am trying to find another dog to give a loving home to, possibly two dogs. In my area, there is an animal shelter, and they show pics of the dogs on the shelter's website that are needing homes. We all know how desperate the need is, and there are two dogs that are a pair, meaning they are to be adopted together, or none at all. They are both 11 years old seniors, and the caption under the pic said that they were abused by negligent owners. I would like nothing better than to open up my heart, and wallet, to give these two dogs a loving home. The age factor scares me, though. I don't know how long a dog lives, on average. What? 15 years tops? Anyway, i just went through the death of my dog, and i don't wanna go through another in the near future, or well, ever!!!

Would any of you adopt those 11 year olds if you were I? Can you give me the why's and the why nots? Please be honest, too.

thanks!

They are both about the same size and both have that crazy stumpy tail thing. Their feet are pretty similar too. Has anyone ever gelled up a guinea pig to make it look like a hedgehog? Or are there any people who can tell me if these animals are in some way related?

Thanks!

Their independence, devil may care attitude-you have to earn their attention.

a cat has been pissing on my doorstep for the last month or so, every couple of days. this morning, the piss had leaked thru the gap at the bottom of my front door. its just gross, and i was told that if i shot the cat i'd be in trouble, and my only option is to buy some dumb-*** repellent thing that is unlikely to work. what do nice people like me do in a situation like this? i really want to shoot it....but like i say, i'm nice.

I have a dalmation/border collie X, who is a bit timid and doesn't like to be left alone since our older border collie/whippet X died, ao we want another dog for her as well as us. My husband wants a medium sized, easily trained dog. I though Lab, he says to big and heavy, he says Cocker Spaniel, but I don't know anything about the breed. Can anyone tell me anything about them?

It was about 10pm one night and a storm was coming.... freezing ,stormy, hard raining, lighting, thunderous night and my Shih Tzu "Mayla" had been in labor seems like all day long. Once the storms arrived it just seemed like everything started. It took hours waiting, watching, helping Mayla not to mention praying ...that all the pups would be fine. I had lots of coffee and hot cocoa that night, it was sooo cold. I wished everything went great and that there would be no late night jump in the car to the vets. But all went well we had three pups ....2 boys, 1 girl.... I spent all night just looking at them in their bed by the fire place ( Where Mayla loved to be) ....and watching over her. She was soo tired....but took care of her babies. I will never forget that experience. I really enjoy how it all played out, I have it on video so I can watch it when every I wanna see it. We were already video taping because of the strong storms coming, it was kinda scary. But we all got through it !

i moved to a new house in june. since then my 3 year old cat has had 4 epileptic type fits, a few weeks a part and then 2 weeks ago my 7 month old pup had 1 at night. he was fine afterwards but in the morning i woke up to find him concious but unable to move at all. the only response i got from him was a little wag of the tail and he moved his eyes in my direction. when i took him to the vet she said he looked like he had been fitting all nite and he was severely brain damaged. i was distraught as i had to have him put to sleep. i am trying to locate the problem as i have a 2 year old son and dont want the same to happen to him. does anyone have any suggestions as i am desperate to find the cause of this problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have two pet rats, a week ago they were climbing the cage as usual, and Tess fell a short distance. However, she fell on the corner of a box in their cage. She got up, and scrabbled off, seemingly unaffected.

A bit later on, we opened the cage to play with them, and noticed a huge lump on her left hand side, just above her hind leg. We took her to the vet as soon as we could, who was baffled, she squeezed the lump, told us it was soft, the rat doesn't seem bothered by it, but prescribed us some antibiotics.

We've been giving the rat anitbiotics twice daily, and the lump hasn't changed. We have an appointment again soon, but I want to be prepared for the worse. If it is a hernia, can the rat go on to live a normal life? Will it have to be surgically corrected? Or will the rat have to be put down? :(

Thanks,

I hate animal cruelty-especially testing. Before someone writes 'Why don't we test on you' I'd like to place forward a thought for people...
If a person dies of a disease, it would be a natural death. That person would probably be in the comfort of a fancy hospital or his home, and he would probably have friends and relatives around him when he dies. He would die peacefully. But when an animal dies in a testing lab after it was blatantly used and stuck in a steel, cold cage all day after it had been used so that you could live a few years longer, ask yourself : Which is worse-the person or the animal?
