Any advice for pups that are bringing up worms? They are 5 weeks old. Any suggestions until I can get them to a vet? Do I need to panic?

We put him outside and hes fine. But we brought him back inside and he starts to shack. Is he shaking and panting B/C of the cookie or something else?

The vet is closed for the holiday weekend, and I hate to see my puppy so miserable. She is 11 months old, and we just found short white worms in her stool. Does anyone know what I could give her to temporarily fight the worms? It will be a few more days before the vet opens again.

Is anyone out there a vet? My dog hasn't been himself the past couple of days. He is more cuddly (he is usually indifferent). He has had a runny nose and been shivering as well. His temp is normal. Is this an emergency, or does he just have a cold?
Thanks!

I know this is disgusting but my female cat, Tilly, has peed on our stove. We turned it on and the smell was awful and probably very unhealthy for us. She has done this atleast 7 times and only when everyone is sleeping or out of the house. Tilly has never done this, she is 12 years old and healthy. She eats and uses her litter except for when she pees on the stove. We don't want to get rid of her (put her to sleep) but I can't have this. I have to clean all four burners almost everyday! I wonder if this could be stress because tilly lives with 4 other younger cats. But she has always been fine with them since we've had them for atleast 3 years. We also recently got a lovebird, but it doesn't annoy her. Does anyone have any idea why tilly would do this or how to stop her?

I keep my bouvier bathed, and combed to keep hair from matting, and in hopes of reducing doggie odor. However, after a few days of smelling clean, the odor comes back. I have never owned a smelly dog before, and it is driving me bonkers. Help!!!!

I just got a south american puffer and the person at the fish store said he'd be okay eating just flake food for a few weeks, so i didn't need to buy snails or worms yet. Well i've had him 5 days and he still hasn't eaten anything. I'm scared he's going to strave. Is there anything that i might have around the house that i could feed him? Or if you have any advince of south american puffers, let me know. Thank you so much.

I have three adorable cats that are very friendly. They sleep together, lick each others faces, roam the woods together, they eat their catfood from the same bowl together every day.
On the ocassion I throw down a chicken bone, the system fails, the unity is gone, they are now mortal enimies to be vanquished! They Spit and hiss at each other, none deterred, They put claws to face, and until one of them ultimately runs off in the woods with it there is no peace.
10 minutes later they're cuddled up together.

Our Pomeranian is 2, she goes outside to relieve herself but almost immediately when she comes inside, she does #1 and #2 again in the kitchen. What can we do? Good dog but this is just aggravating. Goes out at the same times daily.

I bought a 2 month year old lhasa apso pup pure breed..
and i wanted to know the following questions:

When we try to play with him.. with a chew toy he spazes out and gently bites us.. should i let it be or stop it before he grows up and bites harder?

It sleeps alot is that normal for that to happen

It doesnt eat much, how can i fix this?

it seems that it is sad just looking at his face it looks sad, is his face always like that?

And finnaly im trying to potty train it but im not sure if im doing it right.. i keep a close eye on him so that i see signs if he wants to go or not.. i take him out and he does his bussiness..but how do i make it so that he can tell me[signs or barks] that he wants to go?

Thank you for your time and hopefully one of these questions will be answered.

I was playing around with my girlfriend's cat, making her run around the house and jump around chasing her toy. After about 15 minutes or so, she started panting like dog and then a minute later and then threw up a clump of dry food. This was the first time she did this when I was looking after her. Is she just out of shape or is there something wrong with her? My girlfriend says she never really plays with her so I'm just hoping she just threw up from all the play.

She had the rugs cleaned but doesn't want to put them down for fear that the cats will do the same thing.
Any suggestions on how to keep the cats away from the rugs ?

With clicker training it is said to be hit or miss -- also the dog doesn't really LEARN the behavior... just does it for performance and the treat.... this true?

I have a pom and she is mostly nice to everyone in my family. Unless she doesn't want to be picked up then she growls viciously and tries to nip. When strangers come over though she is very mean towards them and will not be quite unless they play with her or leave.Does anyone have an answer to this?

One's definitely worse than the other. I just recently gave them a bath with some flea shampoo i picked up at the pet store, and at bath time it seemed to have worked. I'm not finding many but still finding some fleas, and the little guy's really itchy.
