Pets - 16 November 2006

Why is it that so many people here, go buy a pet they know nothing about ?
they ever consider looking into this BEFORE they have problems?
Some folks here have reptiles at home and don't even know what to feed it!!!

I just ask cause I am not out there everyday and apparently she foundered before I got her. The guy that sold me the bales said a horse can sometimes founder on these bales cause they are 50% alpha and 1/2 grass. He said they are rich and not to give her too much, but she was on pasture all summer...

So is it ok to give her a whole square at a time?

my brother has a dog everybody wants and its a girl and people come up to him saying I'll give you $500 right for your dog. And sometimes they just go higher with the price whats so good about those type of dogs.

my sister cat had a litter of kittens a few years back and i took care of them when my sister was gone we keep them in a giant cage when no one was around and when i come and feed them all 7 would jump out of the cage into my arms and just sit there. We found good homes for all of them but one my sister kept one and named him mozart he was a cat on the outside but in the inside was a different animal he was a special little furry guy like when i try to sleep on the couch he sit and look at me forever intil i pick him up and put him beside me, or me i showered he jump right in go he would take a shower right with you, and it was always funny watching him chase the hockey puck on tv. But one day mozart was got out and someone hit him with a car and sped off. My sister cried for days i still miss that fat little guy but i know hes up in heaven up to no good. Do you have a special furry friend that you miss ?

my neighbor(well she lives a block away) used to have a dog that was abused before they got her and they knew that too. thats why she had been put of for adoption.... she was a golden retriever
she rarely barked, but when ever u used a firm tone with her she would kinda slouch or bend her legs and back up. same if you were taking her for a walk and stopped abruptly. but she was great with kids, i wold bring her to my house all the time cause i used to take her for walks everyday until they got rid of her.
but anyway, she was very protective at the same time
id lay on my lawn and she'd come lay across me and start licking me, and if anybody tried to come up to me she'd get up and block them from me. she didnt do that to ANYONE but me.
not even her owners and she never hurt a fly she was scared of alot of things. which is funny cause of the fact she was so protective over me..and i dont know why But i guess what im trying to say, is since this dog was abused and scared, why did she

I've had my dog a 3.5 year jack rusell/shitzu for three months since adopting him. As far as I know he grew up with two pitbulls, and a very disoriented family, hence him being put up for adoption.

Whenever we tell him no, ex. if he starts barking (which is rarely), or he does something bad or if he thinks he did something bad by the tone of our voice, we say his name firmly and he rolls onto his back and puts his legs in the air like he wants a tummy rub.

Is this unusual when you try to verablly descipline your dog for doing something bad? (Which is rare) But still, that's pretty passive for a dog.

I only put them on him once and a while, and he really doesn't mind, seems quite comfortable in them. Does anyone else do this or know people that do?

How can I get rid of the odor FAST?!?!?!? I have two small children and I can't have this happening again. I'm leaving on a 6 week trip in a few days, so I either need to get rid of the odor to prevent it from happening again or I will have to get rid of the cats altogether. Can they be trusted for 6 weeks on their own? I'm so frustrated right now I can't see straight, help please!!!

Is it mean to make my horse dig through the snow for food (there is lots of long grass under there). I only get out to feed her a 1/2 bale every 2-3 days as I don't live near her right now. I don't want to give her a couple bales at a time as she tends to overeat and get fat, and apparently foundered before I got her (the bales are 50% grass and 50% alpha).

Why is it that our pets "need" to get vaccinated almost every year? Humans certainly don't need to do this except for the flu shot which is a different situation... It seems to me that immunological memory should exist in cats and dogs too.

So i recently rescued a little boxer pup. He is approx 8 weeks old. I was curious if anyone knew if it is too late to have his tail cut. I also have a 3 year old boxer and when i got her her tail was already cut as well as her dew claws but this puppy still has them. When is it to late to have them removed.

Her litter box has always been in the laundry room (for easier access.) Shes four months old now and i'd like to move it. Will that confuse her?
