Has a Bassett ever won Best of Show at a major show? I'm wondering if the Bassett's natural body shape makes it hard to show to its best advantage. It seems the very characteristics that define the breed and the judges look for work against the dog in anything but best of breed judging. Frustrating!

One of the fish in my tank has come down with Ich so I am now in the process of treating my entire tank for Ich. At the recommendations of a fish store, all of the decorations, plastic plants, live plants and carbon filter have been removed. I am using NOX-Ich and have raised the temperature in the tank to 82 degrees. The fish store recommended treating for a period of no less than a week so as to avoid having subsequent break outs. My first question - only one of my fish has any appearance of Ich - what do I do with this fish? I know I'm supposed to assume all fish are infected and treat the whole tank, but do I wait for this platty to get better/die or flush her now? Also, when I put everything back in the tank in a week or two do I need to treat the decorations/plants, and if so with what and how? Besides NOX-Ich (sodium chloride and malachite green) should I treat with anything else besides frequent water changes?

On Saturday afternoon I came out and there was a dog sitting on my porch. It was raining and I took it and put it in my basement. The girl upstairs from me gave it a bath, collar and put an ad in the newspaper for "Lost Dog". Well, I've been letting it stay with me and it keeps having number 3 all over the place. I don't understand why. Someone gave me dog food and it's been eating that but it keeps number 3ing all over the place. Last night I took it to PetSmart and it number 3ed all over the place. Ugh! I'm dry heaving.

What can I do to make it stop number 3ing all over the place? Should I buy another brand of dog food?

He's a 15lb Pomeranian, and usually extremely heathly. He has been having diarrhea since Saturday night, and has been vomiting since Sunday morning. He hasn't eaten a bite, but is drinking a lot of water (that I always try to give him). The diarrhea is extremely runny and liquidy, and he can't hold it. He is crate trained, and pooed outside of his crate last night (like he stuck his butt up to the edge and tried to make sure the poo didnt get in the crate). He also vomited in his crate.

He's a bit lethargic, but not too bad, which is why I thought it would pass. I believe he's up to date on all of his shots, and he's young, only 2 years old. Any ideas??

I cant think of anything weird he has eaten, and I havent found any evidence of it either.

She is solid white with one black patch over her eye. I think she looks just like a pirate, thats why I'm thinking of naming her Grace O'malley, after the famous female pirate.I would probably call her Gracie for short. I like Gypsy too though........i just can't decide!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been a week now and I can't get him to eat. I've used the food the shelter gave me and mixed it gradually with another brand they recommended. I have taken him to my vet and she said to give him time. At this point, should I try a soft type of dog food or stick to the dry food?

We got a new dog about 2 weeks ago. One is 5 years old and is a Mini Doberman. The other is a 2 year old cattle dog mix. They keep fighting very fiercely to the point that you have to physically separate them. The mini Doberman has a sizable chuck of flesh missing from his leg from the attacks even though you start most of the conflicts.

How do you know a male kitten from a female? My kitten is 3 1/2 months old and I looked and felt his areas, to see if it had testicles. I didn't feel anything, but is it to young to feel anything? When should it have testicles, or do you think it is a female? Someone told me it was a male, but now I don't know.

Only serious answers only!

Our new cat is very sweet, but she tracks kitty litter all over the floor. The cat has a covered litter box, so I'm guessing that the litter's coming out because it's stuck to her paws. We're using clay kitty litter -- does that stick to a cat's paws more than the other kind? We're also going to get a cat litter box mat today. Any other suggestions?
