I cannot believe how many people think this breed is dangerous.
I own an Akita and he is the friendliest dog going. He has never barked or growled at another dog and has shown no signs of aggression towards humans. People judge this breed unfairly and I do not undertand why? The Question: Should we blame the owners and not the breed. Is a pit bull vicious or is it the owners that make them that way? If you love or like the Akita please let me know here - Thanks.

Should I get 3 female bettas with 1 male, 4 female bettas with no male, 4 females with 1 or 2 males, or 4 males with no females? (I know you can't put males in the same tank! Don't say it please! I hate when people say it when I already know it and tell them not to say it!) Feel free to make up any of your own combo's. Thanks!

1. Are they legal to breed? (I heard a rummor that because they are so poisonous, they are not legal. Is it true?)
2. How much do they cost on average?
3. Do any of you have any? How difficult is it to take care of them?
4. Are there more than one kind of Scorpion Fish? I think I've heard of a Lion Fish also, maybe I'm just dreaming that one lol.
5. Any USEFUL information in helping me consider this new hobby would be appreciated.

I've always had dogs,but now I would love a yorkie. It's really important that they are good tempered and not too yappy, because I have neighbours who are a bit intolerant.

We have a beautiful purebred German Shepherd that we may have to get rid of in order to be able to move out of our current living situation. What can we do? I really don't wanna get rid of my dog, but I'm torn between doing what's best for my kids and what's best for my dog...Any suggestions?

I took my 2 year old cat over my cousin's house so the kids can play with it. She was a little scaried, and when my sister took it outside incase she wanted to go to the bathroom... I guess she freaked out and ran away.. What should I do now?

My cousin's house is not too far from mine, but I do not think the cat can trvael that far because she would need to cross a large road.

My Staff/Boxer mix always barks at people when they walk by our yard when shes out in the back yard, and she also barks at squirls in the tree for a long time. Since she barks a lot people are scard of her because she looks mostly like a staff, but is bigger than one since she is part boxer too. She is really sweet and wouldn't hurt a fly (well atually she would, but not a person), and a lot of people are scard of her because she barks. What should I do? Iv'e tryed training.

Here is a mini-quiz to test how much you know about dogs
True or False:
1. An Australian Shepherd does not mind sleeping all day.
2. Spaying/Neutering your dog makes him a better canine citizen.
3. Vomiting for more than three days is a reason to see your dog's veterinarian.
4. A Labradoodle is hypo-allergenic.
5. The Rottweiler breed should be labeled as vicious.
6. A dog's diet should not include corn in the kibble.
7. A dog who bites once should receive some behavior modification.
8. Breeding your dog because she is the cutest dog ever is a great reason to mate her.
9. 6 weeks is too young for a puppy to be sold.
10. A reputable breeder breeds many different dogs because they are obviously so good at it.
11. Dogs are adaptable and therefore do not mind being abandoned simply because their owners cannot handle them.
12. Crating a dog for 5 hours during the day is too long.
13. A Working/Herding Group breed of dog requires a job to do daily.
