Pets - 20 November 2006

I dont know what to do but i have a problem. I have three dogs two black pugs and a siberian huskey mix {alexis}, and when i pay "any" attention to alexis my pugs go in my room and they use the bathroom. We have punished them several of times and showed them outside and all that they stoped for awhile, until alexis was allowed inside and they started back up. I cant stand the smell i am 5 months pregnant and these dogs sleep at the end of my bed, alexis sleeps on the floor next to the bed. I have been wanting to put all the dogs out of the room to avoid hurting them i get so angry at this problem, however i am scared of the pugs doing stuff in the living room. They are 7 months old and have always slept with my husband and I. we have done everything even shutting the door while we arent in the room but the pugs seem to remember everything and when its time to go to bed they do there buisness in there and get in trouble but there not paying attention to us can anybody help

very angry! my new baby cockatile should never have been sold!!!?

i posted in another thred "scared to let my baby teil fly" well turns out i had good need to worrie,i became so worried about my baby birds condition, i rang a expert who came to my home to check "Dusty" and he said that "he" as store sold him was in fact a "she" and that she was approx 8 weeks old NOT "12 weeks plus" as sold, he said she was suffering from server malnutrition and her lack of head feathers looked like the result of other birds "ripping them out of her head" :(
she was in such a bad way that she has had to be taken in to recive specalist care and is being feed from a spoon every 2 hours,a deiet used for new born chicks, i only had dusty 2 days and i knew from day one something wasnt right, so why do stores employ ppl to look after animals with out first making them take "what i think" should be compulsry training course?
i was told had i not contacted for help Dusty would have been lucky to make it through the weekend, how do workers in these stores sleep at night?

Can can a cat grow lips back?

My cat was recently hit by a car and has suffered a broken jaw. The tissue is beginning to rot away and detach from the lower gum line. What will happen to his lips? If they fall off with the lower tissue under his gumline, can his body resconstruct itself by fashioning "new lips"?

How can I get rid of the spray on carpet after "bug bomb" was used?

Landlord fumigated my new apartment, spray from the can is now on my carpet. My Boston Terrier, 16 pounds, runs after her balls, gnaws on her bones and licks her paws. would baking powder neutrilize it and then vacuum it up. Would it be of help to have the carpet cleaned with non toxic cleaner? Is there such a thing as nontoxic rug cleaning? Would wiping carpet off with vinegar work?

What are the symptoms of rabies in cats?

My cat was accidentally left outside yesterday for about an hour, the longest she's ever been out in her 11 years. She was on our 2nd level porch & there was another weird cat on the porch w/her. She's been acting weird ever since. Just wanting to sleep & has a loss of appetite (more like it's just painful for her to eat). I'd explain more, but I think it would be too involved in text to make any sense...Not that this did either...

My dog keeps shaking his ears...?

So here's the deal, my dog keeps shaking his ears and now has started scratching them, PLEASE do not tell me to go to the vet, if i wanted that answer then i wouldn't have posted this, it's not that i'm lazy and don't want to go, i just can't afford it right now...anyways, he's been shaking his ears, but has had no excess build up of wax or odd debris coming from his ears, and there is no foul smell, i look inside his ear and it's not enflamed i just see a TINY bit of redness, but he doesn't whimper about it or anything, he just keeps shaking his ears, like it's irritating but not painful...does anyone have ANY idea what this might be, i don't see any earmites in his ear either, and the symptoms of earmites just don't comply with his current symptoms, like i said, there is no excess wax build up, could it be a yeast infection in his ear? *sigh* i just need some insight w/someone who has had a similar experience or knows of something? i'd appreciate it
