I got a dog from the humane society, he is seven years old and a very good dog. But when I put food outside of the ground for him he eats it all and when he is done he pees where the food was. I have never seen a dog do this before. He does not do this in the house, only outside.

I was watching Nightline last night, and they showed how similiar and different, dog, elephant,a nd dolphin pregnancies are. They also showed two dogs sticking their butts together, legs crossed together. Was this mating?

We rescued him at 9 weeks (he was scheduled to be put down), and so he went from living with his mom and littermates to living with us and our female lab. I assumed he picked up the habit from watching the lab, but shouldn't he instinctively be trying to mark his territory?

ive been wanting a maltese puppy for awhile now and have been doing crazy research over the internet.

i came across an ad where a man said he was giving out a free maltese since his wife who cared for the puppy had died and he can no longer take care of it

the reason why i came into suspicion is that he is located in cameroon, in another country and i am located here in san jose, california..

what do you think?

I'm 10 years old, have a brother who's 15 and I LOVE DOGS! I basically live for dogs. it's long time tell I get a dog but I guess I just want to get ready, so can you tell me what kind of dog would fit my lifestyle?
OK well my mom works 4 days a week. She sleeps in the days (she works night shift) 9-3 but on Fri. she picks me up from school at 12. Usually on school days (besides Fri.) I get out at 3pm. I go to school at 8. My mom works on Fri. Sat., Sun., and Sometimes Mon. SO she has day-offs when I'm at school and can take care of the dog so it wont be alone. When I come I will probably look forward to walking the dog to the park (down the street) and I need a small dog because I want it to be an inside dog. I also want the dog to be friendly with humans and other dogs (MY neighborhood has lots of dogs, that i want it to be friendly with) I can supply all the food, care,and love it needs. O and I want a dog that doesn't get sick that often. Please tell me a what kind of dog, please!

Boil 'em, fry 'em, steal it from your neighbor and eat it alive. Either way you're gauranteed to be labeled a monster. I'm a human too you know and I've got feelings for all living animals...especially those delicios cats. I've been thinking of moving to China Town so I won't be ridiculed but embraced, what should I do?

I know the obvious choice is x-rays and a vet visit, but I'm not exactly wealthy. She's 3 years old, and she had FHO surgery on one hip at 6 months old. She just doesn't run as much as she used to, so I'm concerned.

When my cats come near the dogs food or water bowl she snaps or growls or chases them away. But if any people in the family touch, get near, touch her food or anything whiles she's eating, she acts neutral. In fact she seems content and happy we came to visit. I do remember as a puppy she would growl even if people came near her food. But she's 7 now and hasn't done that since she was a puppy. So I'm just curious what this means in terms of doggy psychology. Is this a "you're superior in the pack" thing or a "I trust you" thing, or something completely different.

I have 3 goldfish in th same tank. I am VERY careful about overfeeding/underfeeding, after losing a goldfish to swim bladder. After replacing that fish, our oldest one is suffering these sicknesses:

Dropsy
Pop eye
Swim bladder (sinking)

We have a tablet we put in the fishtank, and it is said to prevent these deseases, but it is not working for that fish. He is also the oldest and it makes that worse because all we need is old age to make this worse! We have a larger tank that we are going to move him to. All we have involving fish cures are tablets that help the deseases a little and freshwater salt. We need more. If you know the cures to any of thoese deseases, please tell me, because I love my animals and I am hoping the last time that my fish had swim bladder will help me this time!! Thank you for any cures, or tips on handleing this!!
