I'm thinking about raising quail in buffalo NY but i think it's to cold to keep them out side and possibly releasing them. Yet i don't think there is a type of quail that is native in this area. Maybe peasant or another kind of bird would be better?

How do vets know which breed is this. I wanted to adopt a pure german Shepherd puppy. I want some help. I will buy it from Pet shop. No papers. just puppies. So i need some skills please help. 2 month or younger. how to know if it is pure german shepherd or not. I have seen pictures. But i cant tell pure or hybrid. I have a puppy i thought it is german shepherd but people here (@ yahoo answers) mostly say it is not a pure bred GSD. So please tell me, any link for guidance. Or tips or tricks to recognise the breed. Some people say if i lift puppy from ears; If it crys, it means it is not a pure bred. and if not cry. It means it is pure. but . Thats not it. and Its a Cruetual way.

I have a maltese/poodle mix that was born on October 1st. I took her to my vet for her first shots and to get wormed a few days ago. I told him that she had been having runny bowel movements but he wasn't very concerned because she was active and appeared healthy. Today she had very little appetite and now I notice that she is lethargic and she has an oily substance on her ears. There is also a foul smell and I am quiet concerned because the vets clinic doesn't open for several hours. I would appreciate any help I could get. Is there something I can give her?

hi, my 9 month female dog goes through my stuff when i've gone to work, im only out for maybe 3-4 hours tops, and i let her free around the house...

i close most doors, so that she doesn't go into the rooms, but she's been going through some of my things, on tables, chairs etc.

i've videoed her, and she does it RIGHT AFTER we leave for work, no hesitation.

Is this a sign of separation anxiety, i know some dogs bark, some dogs chew, she just goes picks at our stuff, and destroys SOME stuff.

sometimes, she doesn't , but most times, she does.

I'm starting to teach her tables are off limits... but the problem is that she doesn't do it when we are around, never! Only when we are gone, she destroys paper, pens and other random things on a table - mind you, she has to really reach for the table!

please help! thanks!

ps. I've tried punishing her, saying no, but i think it's too late, cuz there is a 3-4 hour gap between when she does it, and wen i tell her off!

thanks

My room gets a little chilly at night and I was wondering if it safe to cover the mouse and hamster cages at night for some (hopefully) added warmth. It's nothing big..just some fleece I bought at WalMart. I know I'd have to leave it open a little for some ventilation. But is it okay? It won't hurt them or anything, will it? And what if they start chewing on the blankets through the bars?

it asks what would you do if your cat was to bit someone. I said that if it bit me I would be ok with that, that I understand.I got an e-mail back asking what would you do if it bit someone else or someone visiting. I have no idea how to answer this.

I only visit home on holidays and longer vacations. When I get there, it is almost my dog and I have never seperated and we go on about our lives as normal. However, the day before I go back to school, I find that I have to tell her that I am leaving and spend extra time with her. When I leave, there will be a period of the dog having depression. I feel so bad about it.

Sometimes when I'm playing with my 1yo JRT/Westie mix, either inside the house or outside in the yard, she will break out into these flat out running jags. It's as though she's suddenly possessed, and she runs with the fury of a thousand rabid reindeers! She tucks her back hips low and flies like the wind along an imaginary path that she repeats over and over until she's completely exhausted and MUST stop for water.

Do I need to enroll her in agility classes? What switch gets flipped in her head that just makes her take off for no apparent reason. It's entertaining, but I want to know WHY.

Any ideas?

I ran out of catfood Sunday morning, and cant get money out of the bank til' mon. morning. They were really hungry so I cut up some tortilla shell and put a spoon of chicken gravy (so they would actually eat the bread) and a piece of beef lunch meat. I know its probably a bad combo, and not to make a habit of it, but it was just a quick fix until morning. Question is, do you think I will wake up in the morning to find little "surprises" from them, or do you think they'll be alright for the night? I know a common answer might be "depends on howsensitive their stomachs are" and they have normal stomachs i guess...any advice would be appreciated. just need some peace of mind for the night. Thanks.

I just got a puppy a week ago, he is 8 weeks old and he is a major biter and keeps having accidents in the house. I have tried giving him spankings when he does both, but he seems to do them more now. He is actually biting harder and going to the bathroom more in the house. I don't know how else to teach him, so if you have any advice, please tell me. Thanks in advance.

They make me so sad. How does this happy? Is it a progression? Is it genuine love and devotion, or a personality disorder?

My dog is 7 years old. I got her at 4 months, she had obviously been abused. I have given her so much love and tried to give her a good life, but she always looks sad, except when we are playing or she is getting a treat.

Do you think she is really sad or is it just the way her face looks? She is a wonderful sweet dog with plenty of spunk and I love her so much i just wish i knew if she was happy.
