We're interested in getting some animals on our small 2 acre farm, we have 2 children under 2. What are the most friendly and easy to take care of?

My horse is ALWAYS tripping and it scares me! I'll be riding and he might slip or trip or stumble. even after he gets his feet trimmed he still trips. Once someone was riding him and he fell. not tripped but fell and his shoulders touched the ground. He;s reallllllly well behaved so it IS an accident.
>>>he is tender footed and doesn't like walking on gravel(i don't know if that makes a difference.
Thx!!(no dumb answers plz)

I am getting a new tank and the one I was planning to get is really expensive I want to know if there are any good websites that have nice large custom tanks for sale or plans for building your own tank.

My favorite dog helps me live independently, listens to all of my secrets, lets me cry and always puts a smile on my face. What does your dog do that makes it so speicial?

My dog got her tail stuck in the door tues night. I took her to the vet on wed and the cleaned up and bandaged it and gave her antiobiotics. The problem i am having is whenever she wags her tail the bandage falls off right away. Even after the vet wrapped it it fell off as soon as we got home. Now it looks like it is starting to get infected even though i am putting neopsporn on it as instructed. They told me if this does not work we will have to have a few inches of her tail taken off. Does anyone have any ideas on how to keep the bandage on or any thoughts on having some of the tail removed. I think it is horrifying but the vet seems to think it would not be that bad and is fairly common. Thanks sorry so long

This isn't really a question, but did it bother anyone else? I just read an answer to the question about dogs eating chocolate. Someone answered something to the effect of "all people food is good for dogs".

I just really hope that people aren't taking all these answers seriously and that YA is just a pre-cursor to REAL research! I'm no expert, but this is common sense when you're a pet owner....right?

Come on people!

Sorry, I had to vent.

I noticed that several people who seem knowledgable and compassionate are getting thumbs for nearly accurate answers that are very obvious to just about everyone. Why are they doing it? Does it affect the overall points? I think they are personally useless and annoying because it hides those who get two or more thumbs down, which may be giving a good answer. Errghhhh!

My mother's dog is blind, deaf, and weak. We don't believe that she is in any pain but she does have extremely bad labor breathing caused from kennel cough. I have been away for the past 3 year and have seen the dog every x-mas, only to see that this year it is really bad. I feel we should put her to sleep, but my mom doesn't want to. Its the only thing she has to take care of since both her kids moved away. This dog is like a daughter/son to her and we have had it for 15 years, but I feel she has done all she could want to do and has lived a VERY fulfilling life. It seems like my mother is keeping the dog alive for herself rather than for the good of the dog itself. Please help me on this decision.
