Pets - 28 December 2006

My daughter & son-in-law have found these people that are selling horses for 75.00.....I know...too good to be true...that's why I need help....They want me to go with them to look at the horses this weekend, I grew up with horses, but it's been a while, so I need to know some things to look for.
This is what I know, they are about 2-3 yrs old, and basically wild, (not broke or halter trained), and they are Paint...that's about all I know at this point.
Any suggestions?????

Jack is a chocolate lab/ terrier mix. He is 13 years old and looks in good shape.(People think he is a puppy) Yesterday, we went to the beach and let him run around a lot. Later that night he started slipping and wobbling in my mom's room. He then threw up in the corner. I put him outside just incase he were to puke again. He went outside and just laid down in the cold. I called him and he wouldn't come. I had to go outside and drag him in. When he was inside he drank water while laying down. After he was done, I carried him downstairs into my room. He laid on the bed all night. I woke up @ 4am and he was upstairs. I brought he back down and he is still laying on my bed right now. Also I gave himwater downstairs and he drank a lot of it then spit a little up. Please HELP!

My kitty Fudge is approximately 1.5 years old and yesterday i noticed a red string near his back end and i thought it was stuck to his tail so when i went to pull it off i noticed it wasn't exactly on his tail so i stopped pulling. After laughing my a** off for a few minutes i got worried, I gave him some crisco oil to try to make him potty and he did, this morning i found the string in his feces. Should i take him to the vet to get xrays to make sure its all out or should i leave it alone. He's acting normal he's eating and playing and going potty just fine.

My uncle is surprising my auntie with a kitten, because it is a "breed" it is 16wks old before being homed, they have been calling the kitten Garfield, any ideas for a name that is similar (so as not to confuse the cat) but is different incase she wants to change it. Thanks

Weight pull is a sport for those who want to do something with their pitbulls that doesn't involve tiny leashes, points for color, or special "paper's" and who love to work with their dog to acheive a goal. If that's you, then weight pull may be your thing.
While Pit Bull's are excellent at weight pull it's not for everyone or for every dog. Training a dog in weight pull takes time, dedication, money, and if you're like me and live in an area with very few, if any pulling events you'll have to travel out of town to events. Which again costs money and time.
I don't want to turn you off to the idea of getting involved though. I just thought it fair that you know before hand some of the sacrafices that will be made.
Weight pull is a fun and exciting way to meet other Pitbull
owner's as well. Your dog is also meeting new doggy friends and getting some great socialization to boot.

I think I already know the answer to this, but whatever – I’m at college at the moment and I live with my mum in a house that has a ground floor and first floor. We haven’t got access to the garden, but it’s a nice(ish) area to walk about. Anyway, would it be fair to get a pet dog if I’m about to go to uni and my mum works three days a week?

I have tried natural remedies such as flower therapy and some dog tranquilizers but this is constant and she only weighs 5 lbs.
Can anyone recommend a treatment?

I have a large black and white mollie and the scales behind her fins are standing straight up. I have never seen this before and she's not acting funny and she's swimming just fine. I'm curious if this is a disease and if so what can i get for it?

ALL options are on the table...looking for creative ways to solve this problem without having to deal with the white trash that owns the dog.

I like dogs - just not dogs that keep me up at night and prevent my baby from napping...

My dog keeps jumping in our fish pond, churning it up and pulling the fountain to bits.
I have tried putting a wooden lattice over the pond but he just pulls that off (destroying it in the process).
Any other suggestions much appreciated.
