Pets - 27 December 2006

I think its because he's jealous but not sure. They are siblings...6yrs old. both male, It begun about a year and half ago. After I spend time with Sammy, Riley may go over and Mount him and grab his neck and bite him. From that position Sam can't get lose. Riley may just wake up from sleeping and go over and bite him in the same position. It's gotten so bad it really doesn't matter what happens to cause him to do it. Sam is a more passive cat. I've tryed to spend more time with Riley...why does he do this...he is nuetered. They both are.

my dad said to use tea tree oil because he is young we can't use any store bought stuff. But the flees are so bad that he whines while he scratches

Okay, this is a very non-interesting question, and I'm sorry, but I've tried everyones advice for different dog foods, with no prevail for my sensative pooch. Hes around 8lbs and 8 years old, and got him from the pound 2 months ago. Since I have gotten him, I have tried:

Adult, Senior, and all flavor varieties of:
Pedigree,
Nutro,
Iams,
Store Brands,
Mighty Dog,

All of it comes back out one side or the other. Mighty Dog was the worse, I found puke and accidents all over the house.

The wierd thing: this dog can eat all table scraps without any digestive problems, no accidents, no upset tummies. Also, he is missing alot of teeth and cannot eat dry food at all (even wetted.)

Please help, any natural solutions? I was going to try just boiling chicken and rice for him, maybe that would work? Anyone else out there with a dog like mine, lol? Please help out :)

Just to let you know, Ive already made an appointment with the vet. I just want to get some information before his appointment.

Id say it started about 2 weeks ago. I let him out to go pottie and when he came back in, his head started to shake. He was not outside longer than 5 min but once he came in his head was just shaking. It has happened about 4 times since and is very random. Why could this be happening??

my dog feels warm to touch and I know dogs heart rates run alot faster than humans but i have never noticed it before and we spend alot of time together. i did get sunburnt the other day but she always moves into the shade when she's too hot. its summer here right now so i am wondering if she is maybe sunburnt? i'll keep her out of the sun and see if she gets any cooler over next few days ...I cant afford a vet everytime something minor occurs to all you who earn points by simply saying take her to the vet!!! :P

I had a fish tank that needed to be resealed because the silicone was poorly done. They resealed it however they trapped air between 2 panes of glass leaving a bubble right in the middle of the tank. The store closed and I need anyones input on what I could do to remove the bubble without ruining the tank.

i brought my dog home to my parents' home for the holidays... it's a place she has been 100s of times before. about three days ago for the first time she has started going upstairs on her own and sitting on the top step waiting for us... i guess to go to bed. she'll start doing this as early as 3pm. if we don't follow her she'll start to bark for us to follow her or, after an hour, she'll begrudgingly come down and try to herd us upstairs with her. if we do go up, she runs into bed and curls up and gets mad if any of us leaves. she absolutely refuses to sit with us in the living room... even though all of her treats and toys are here. she doesn't come when we call her. if we carry her down, she'll run away as soon as we don't hold her back. we don't know what to make of this. she is usually a really social lap dog... so it's odd for her to not stay with the family in the living room. the only thing that is different is that my live-in boyfriend isn't here.

I would like to get a poodle hybrid puppy. Probably a cockapoo. Any recommendations?

I would maybe like to breed them and have 1 litter of pups, but that is it, I got my Bichon through a rescue and only paid 100 dollars for him, whenevevr I search for a female though they cost more than my house payment does, I am located in Michigan and was wondering if anyone knew of someone wanting to adopt out there female Bichon Frise, or where I can possibly get one that I dont have to pay a fortune for, I am looking for a pet not a money maker.
I have tried petfinder.com Hoobly.com and area shelters.
Thanks in advance!

This morning, she had an accident on the rug. Looked redish, but I figured someone gave her leftover spaghetti from the night before. By mid-morning, she had full blown diarreah, and pure blood. My husband took her to the emergency vet, and they could not find anything wrong. She is 14 years old by the way. Being an emergency facility, they wanted $1500 to keep her overnight and do ultra sound & x-rays. The other options was to take her home until our regular vet could see her, which is what we did. She will get in to see her regular vet tomorrow. HAS ANYONE EVER HAD this type of experience with an elder dog like this, and what could it be?? I can't believe they could not find anything wrong at the emergency clinic. Blood work came back ok, and no signs of rectal tumors. Poor Lady, she is old, but always seems full of life!

First, my heater makes so that there is tons of water, which makes the water level above the lip of the filter. It's freezing in my house, so I have to make the heater work. Second, my housekeeper whom I trusted to feed the fish over-fed them, causing one fish (a Sunset Coral Dwarf Platy) to die. Second, since there is tons of fish food gunk in the gravel, I tried using the gravel vaccum (air pressure) to suck up the fish gunk. But the aquaruim is too small apparently for the vaccum or I don't know how to use it. The pH levels and stuff are fine, but I can't figure it out.

I mean with all the answers like spay and neuter your dogs that are given to the questions asked about breeding why does anyone give information. Wouldn't it be better not to answer these questions because maybe that would force the unknowledgeable to take their dogs to the vet. This way at least the dogs would get some kind of vet care.
