I know that sounds like an odd question. I have a 5 month old Akita puppy. I got an Akita because the breed is very protective. And I live on my own, just moved into a new apt around mid-town. I really like my new apt building next door has a bunch of rowdy guys living in it, I don't like to be bothered.

So they'll cat call to me or even approach me & my Akita just stands there all excited to be meet new people, wagging his tail, prepared to lick the men to death. How do I make him give a warning bark or better yet a little growl? I just want to train him to do that until I tell him it's okay. I've seen people with well trained aggressive breed dogs do that. It works very well. Any suggestions?

I am seeking any VALID information that anyone can help me with. I had a cat that just passed. She was overall heathly and was about 12 years old (current vaccinations and an indoor cat). About a month ago she started to become lethargic and about two weeks ago just stopped eating. I was having to force feed her. The vets say old age, but I do not agree.. it seemed to quick for me. Now I maybe searching for an answer because i just do not agree with old age.. she went from a playful cat to a deceased cat in a month. I have been racking my brain and the only thing I can think of that I changed, was what I mopped my tile floors with. I used a 'popular' spray with the mop attached with removable cleaning pads. I am sick over her passing but I can not help but wonder if this product has been linked to any other pet deaths. Or am I just looking to blame myself. Serious answers only ALL others WILL be REPORTED

My pup has figured out how to climb our fence. We rent and don't to spend hundreds of dollars on a new fence. We put the pup on a chain and leave the big dog to run in the back yard. We sometimes leave him off the chain to test him. If he climbs the fence we call him to us and put him on the chain, we don't want to punish him for coming back to us.

When he's on the chain he digs and if my landlady sees she'll poop a brick. We think the pup is diging because of the other dog running around. If we can catch him we hollar "Duke NO! Bad Puppy!" and he stops we then divert his attention. We usually leave them out if we're going to be gone more than 30 min and it's nice outside. What else can we do to either keep him from climbing or digging?

I have a litter box that sometimes she will go in and sometimes not. What is really frustrating is that I can't leave anything fabric like on the floor or she will go on that. We no longer have rugs on our hardwood floors or in our bathroom to try to keep her going in the litter box. We keep the litter box clean. She goes there sometimes but sometimes not. I can't figure her out.

I know she has worms because she has slime come out when she goes poop and she scratches her butt all along the grass. She is only 4 months old and I dont want the worms to affect her too bad. I was told to go to the store and get her some de-wormer, but she has an appointment this Sunday (already paid for) in which she is to be given her shots and her dewormer. Should I go get the store dewormer and pay twice when her appointment is 4 days away or should I wait? How much is she going to suffer between now and then?

As some of you know my darling Baggy (Bagheera) had to be put to sleep last wednesday after he suffered kidney failure. I am on my own and my home is so empty without him... I have been offered this week a 16 year old persian and a 9 week old ginger kitten but I couldnt take either. All my animals have come to me...2 horses and 2 cats...should I wait until someone needs me (ie turns up on the doorstep or through the RSPCA), or do I get another cos my home is just a house without an animal?

I have an 11week old maltipoo puppy. We are crate training him and that is nice in the evenings, etc. He seems to keep his crate dry from 1am-6am no problems...However, when I leave for work he pees and poops but when the dog walker arrives at 12:15 each day his crate is wet. Is his bladder to young to hold it? Am I doing something wrong...how long does it take for housebreaking? I am so careful with him but he still has (1) accident per night in the house-UGH! The crate is small enough for him, he never poops in it-so I'm thinking he just can't hold it yet. Thoughts???
