My fiance and I just got an 8 week old blue heeler pup and we're stuck on what to name him. We are looking for a unique country name since we have a farm and live in the country..

I have a 32 gallon fish tank with 2 plecostomus, 1 clown loach, 3 mollies, and a tiger barb. The trouble is I'll be on vacation for about 18 days with no one to feed them.

Can I just put a long term feeder in there, and make sure the filters are clean? Or do I need to get rid of them, and if so where do I take them?

I have always wanted a duck ever since I was little. I had one but my brother killed it. My friend had one for his duaghter and they loved. Not alot of mess and really low-maintanence. I have been looking everywhere in the DFW area. I found one place but the ducks looked sick and not very healthy or clean. I found another place in Mesquite, TX but the man was rude and evertime I asked a question he would look at me mean. I asked him if he could put a duckling aside for me so, but he said No. So if anyone knows anyplaces in the DFW area, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have two big beautiful blue eyed wolf dogs. I watched Disney's "SnowDogs" and I have been thinking about getting my dogs into commercials and print ads. I'd like to know what you think. Should I get them into "show-business"? They are very friendly and have been brought up from puppyhood with kids and cats. They are well socialized so I don't have to worry about that. (These wolfdogs do not live in a pen..they live in my house and can usually be found lounging on my couch or playfighting all over the house.) Please tell me if I should get them involved with this. I'd especially like to hear from owners who've had their dogs in "show business" before. Specifically, did the dog like it or not? (I would never want to get my dogs involved in anything they didn't thoroughly enjoy).
Any feedback is appreciated. Here is a link to see my wolf dogs.

does anyone know what would make an 11 week old westie itch?? She was on the Science Diet and we recently changed thinking that could be the problem.. I know westie's are known for skin allergies but she's young and I thought allergies don't show up until older when there no longer immune??? Thanks for any help

I have been on petfinders and found a dog that I would love to adopt....I had to fill out this intensive application and it could take up to 4 weeks. I have adopted in the past from the SPCA and they make you fill out a application and I took the dog home that day.
Why the long process??

I have a 3 month old staffy male, and the last few days hes been getting abit aggressive. Hes started growling and sometimes snapping. I know i need to take him to obedience classes, which i am looking into but can anyone offer any advice on how to get him out of it before he gets out of control. Any little things i can be doing to calm him down. I know they are an excitable breed, which he is but hes not doing it through play, hes doing it when hes been moved from doing things he shouldnt. Any help would be much appreciated.

My Lhasa Apso puppy is having trouble pooping. She tries but she can't. I think it is because the poop got stuck to her behind. She also is foaming a lot at the mouth. I know that she has not been bitten by a rapid animal cuz she lives inside. Do you know what this means?

We adpoted a cat that we think the old neighbors left behind ( my mom is supposed to ask the neighbors that use to live if it was theirs but i think she will yelled it at them instead) so we let the kitty sleep in the house. She usually sleeps on the bed with me. She prrs really loud, like one of my cats when they were younger) only she doesn't prrs at the some tone. She gots up real high and goes real low quickly. I don't know why she does that. Is it serious? If so anything I could do to help her? I am really worried please help. Don't say anything mean.

My dog gives the g.pig kisses through the cage and checks on her all the time. The g.pig is very receptive to the kisses and attention but, I want to be sure this is even naturally possible I guess. I am sort of affraid the dog will try to retrieve the g.pig and accidentally HURT her.

My cat recently started meowing at night. He's a house cat, fixed, well-fed, and gets lots of attention. During the day, he sleeps like a baby, making no noise whatsoever; but once the lights are out and the house is quiet, he begins his serenade. He doesn't do it continuously all night long, but sporadically (three or four times per evening)...for about five to ten seconds...and loud enough to wake me up. Just wondering if anyone has an idea what might be on his mind. Thanks

Left a question yesterday about the person who left her horse with no food, water, hay etc. she has now been gone for 7 days, she is in another state when she is returning who know and at this point who cares, I could not bear to see that horse just standing there with a non- caring owner, I fed, watered, gave hay, cleaned the stall, even took him some apples, I have my own horse to take care of, but people who answered my question about this person, the horse is doing fine and now has aclean stall fresh water and a full belly, she will not care or will she say Thank You but the horse did with that sweet look her gave me. At least I care, she will have to answer to herself that she doesn't.
