We just got a schnauzer puppy and we can't think of a name. So we are looking for help. The puppy is a male and white. Any suggestions?

Every year, I receive a wrapped present from my Scottish Terrier. Is that dog really giving me a present or is someone playing a trick on me?

My Beta died the other day so now I am looking to buy another fish. I would like a fish that also does well in small tanks (1.5 gallon), looks cool, and gets along with other fish. I would like to buy two fish this time, so they can have a friend, but they would both be in the 1.5 gallon tank. Can anybody give me any recommendations on what fish will meet my criteria?

FYI--I am willing to buy a bigger tank but not much bigger. My space is VERY limited so the biggest I can go is probably about 2 gallon.

I can take her to vet in the morning, but what could it be? It was not like this when I went to work this morning. She is trying to keep it closed and when she closes it, it tears up.

We removed some of them but it is hurting her to the point she backs away from us. My roommate pulled one but busted the body off and head is still in. What should I do to remove the ticks without hurting her or hurting the babies and how should I get the head out? What is best to use to get ticks removed without contaminating the teets so they babies can feed?

He is a year and a half old and is GREAT! The only thing is that he suffers some awful coughing spells. Sometimes he will cough up a hairball but not always. Is there something I can do for him? Please serious answers only. I love this cat and want whats best for him! thanks everyone!

i want a small-medium puppy...one that is small enough to be allowed to stay inside but not something that is going to require a lot of "maintenance". I have a couple of cats already who rule the house and are bigger than some small dogs (one is 15 lbs and the other is 12 lbs - both about 1 1/2 years old...) so I want a puppy that will actually get to be a little bigger than these 2 but not something that will be very "noisy" either...any suggestions for me? my husband gets back in about a month and i wanted to get it for him as a surprise...THANKS!!!

I saw posted in an answer on this site a height and weight chart for Great Danes and wonder if there is one for Labradors. I'm adopting a pup who looks to be a pure yellow lab in every way, except for short legs. Since he's a rescue, he might be a mix. At 5-6 mos old he weighs 28 lbs. Is he likely to reach 55-60 lbs, even with those short legs? He isn't ill-proportioned, just a bit height-challenged! I don't care if he is a mix, I just don't want to end up with a small dog. Medium to large is what we want.

First question-Can pregnant cats have treats? (I give her 1 treat in the morning if she's in the yard, obviously an outside cat, and 1 treat at night if she is in the yard)

Second Question- Since she's an outside cat, do you think she will have the babies in her little house or somewhere else?

Third, and Final, Question- The babies are going to be born around the middle of January so do you think I should keep them inside or outside? (Her house has two blankets in it and only one small opening. If necessary, I can get another blanket to put in her house.)

Thank you for your answers!(If you want to answer only a certain question please put like "Third Question-" before it. Thanks once again!

I am currently fostering this dog and trying to find a forever home for her. People are very very interested and then once they see a picture of her they tell me they've changed their mind. Is she really that ugly? Here is her pic

My 6 year old male lab has always leaked pee. He just dribbled when he was a puppy and the vet said he should grow out of it. Well he hasn't and last week he got really sick and started leaking a lot. He was hospitalized and they couldn't find anything wrong with him. They put him on medication for vomiting, but he is still leaking pee like crazy. Anyone ever heard of a problem like this?

I got an American Eskimo Miniature about 2 months ago, and he hasn't got better with nipping, and he is just plain bad. He was SupposeD to be an inside dog (didn't happen!) He runs out and doesn't want to come back in because he wants to play with the neighbor's dog!

What should I do with my puppy, Tazzy?!?!? I really need some advice, because my mom is threatening to give him away! I get mad at him a lot but I still love him!

I am not sure what is wrong with her. she starts hissing at him every-time she see him. they have been fine for a year and half and now she is doing this. Could she be in heat and still be sniped, if so how long will last. if not what do you think. I want them to get along.

My husband got me a cocker spaniel female for our anniversary back in september, she's 7 months old now, she was great, we have another cocker spaniel, he's a male and he's great too, our female was doing very well at adjusting, except that everytime that we went somewhere and left her home and come back, our stuff got tore up, she even chewed up my husbands expensive designer glasses and she has done that ever since, paper, and anything that she can get ahold of, we started taking her with us but when we go in the store she tares up the truck too, it seems like she don't like being without us, but our other dog doesn't do that, how can we stop this, we can't keep taking her everywhere we go and have her destroy the car too, someone suggested to get her a pet taxi or a cage, is that such a good idea? Help!!
