I am getting a maltipoo who will grow to about 4pounds. I was wondering what is the best way to house train him. I have been told it is not good to take him outside until all his shots are complete. So, is it a good idea to train him to use puppy pads until later on and then possibly train him to go outside. I have heard about this product called "wizdog".

Also, I have been told to let the puppy stay in a toddler play pen, while I am away and also for him to sleep there. Any ideas about that?

he has always been aggresive i was warned before i got him.
ive had him since he was 8weeks old i got him from a friend who didnt want him scratching her 4 year old daughter.
he is now a year old and he has been neutered.

he is nice and cuddley one second purring, then he just bites or scratches.

sometimes he pounces on me from out of nowhere while im watching tv or on the phone.

my friends dont like to come round to mine that often because he goes for them too.

i have started spraying him with a water bottle when i see him getting ready.
i dont do anything to encorage him to attack me.

how can i stop this behaviour?
i cant afford those pherimone plug ins.

i recently just bought 2 female bettas and right now they are still establishing the pecking order (chasing each other around). so basically the first day fish A chased fish B around, and starting day 2 and today, it was fish B chasing around fish A. a lot of the time fish A is hiding around at the bottom or around the plants (she's so good at it that i can hardly find her sometimes). my problem is when i feed them, fish B is the one eating all the food (will make her fat) and fish A stays at the bottom and doesn't attempt to eat. is this normal during the pecking order stage? or should i take out fish B and put in food so fish A can come up and get it without being scared of being chased around?

We got a 2nd cat this morning. He's a sweet guy, but pretty frightened.

He's set up with his bed, food, litter box, toys, etc, in our bathroom for the moment, so is relatively undisturbed by our first cat. He doesn't object to being petted; nary a hiss or anything, but he's in hiding every time we go in there.

Food and litter remain untouched.

The food is the dry stuff he's used to eating, a bit of high-quality canned, and some treats; it's not like he's been thrown entirely new stuff -- the dry is even in his old bowl.

Any thoughts?
