I have a Llasa Apso that will be turning a year old next month. Ever since I got her she has this problem where whenever she gets excited she lets out a little urine. Is there anything I can do for her? Is it a problem she will eventually get over? Please help!!!

If I put a small albino cat in with them will he attack it or does he just go after all the other mollies I have added?

I have a one yr old Labrador, she's not fixed, and I doubt if i'll ever breed her. I really don't care to or want to get her fixed. But if I do, does it modify their behaviour? Will she forever think i'm the evil cuss who had her cut and bury all clothes off the line in the garden and leave presents in my shoes??

She doesn't have fleas. We recently gave her a bath. Are shampoo allergies possible?

I have had her for about three weeks now and I have tried to spoil her but she still shys away from me. If I get down on her level then she will sit in my lap and let me pet her but she is absolutely scared of everything. She won't even go off the porch to use the bathroom unless I go into the yard with her. Does anyone have any tips I could use to maybe break her out of this?

The other day she just stopped eating. She'll eat her treats but nothing else, there doesn't seem to be anything else wrong with her, but I just can't get her to eat her kibble. Help please!

Just curious what the best way to keep kibble that is semi-moist from drying up in the bag...I've heard of dog food storage containers but do they really keep the moisture in? Is it inevitable that food will dry up with in a few days of an open package?

I have a eight month old female french bull dog, and my girlfriend wants to move in with me (my apt is 700 sq feet). The problem is she has a 9 yr old female pittbull. Will these two dogs be able to get along in such small quarters. Both are spade if that makes a difference. The pitt is extremely close with my girlfriend and the french really is too. Craziest part is we have not been able to let these dog's meet due to her living in another state.

I was just cooking supper in the kitchen. I didn’t know that one of my cats was right behind me and I rightly stepped on his tail. He looked surprised but he looked like he forgave me after I apologized to him.

The other day, I was looking after my acquaintance’s puppy. When she jumped up on my couch, my elbow was in the way and I elbowed her by accident. She looked like she knew it was an accident but I apologized her anyway.

And I was wondering if anybody else apologize to their pets…
I'm not crazy / I'm normal, right?

When are you that wierdo, the cat lady? Do the cats have to be in your house to qualify, or is living in the yard enough to make you the cat lady? How many cats make you the cat lady? What makes people cross that line from normal pet ownership into being the cat lady?

And please explain why. This is a serious question.
I plan on having my dog cryo-preserved (cryonics) when he dies someday. Even though I have had him for 2 years now (I adopted him and he is 13 years of age)I love him so much that. I also pay $26 a month for pet insurance.

She is a rhodesian ridgeback who I have noticed when she wakes up after napping on the couch there is urine spots. Also, I have noticed that tonight she was sitting next to me on the floor and as she walked away there was urine on the floor. She did not squat or anything, it's just like it comes out of her without her control. I am concerned since when I got her from the breeder she came with a broken tail from prior to birth. The mom had 8 puppies and the vet said she was probably squished and her tail got broke. My vet said she has feeling and all is ok with it but it is clearly shaped like and "L" at the end. I am wondering if something may have happened to her during birth. We have had a very difficult time housebreaking her although over the last 2 months it finally seems like she got it except for these unfortunate mishaps that she does not even seem to be aware of. Any suggestions? We will be making an appt with the vet in the next day or so.

I need some information on guinea pigs or hamsters...I've had hamsters before (4 of them), but I have never had a guinea pig. Which ones tend to make better pets? Which ones tend to bite more? Also, could I get some info on guinea pigs? Anything you want to share is fine such as whether it is better to get a boy or a girl, whether it is better to get a young or older one, the minimum, and I mean minimum, size cage you should use for them, and any other crap you want to throw my way lol. P.S. Is a 30" (length) x 18" (width) x 16" (height) cage suitable for a guinea pig?
