Tennessee teen severely injured in dog attack
UNDATED -- A 15-year-old boy in Tennessee is recovering from an animal attack. He was mauled by a pack of pit bulls.

Paul Brown was jumped on a McMinn County road by at least 15 of the dogs.

He ran into a nearby field for safety, and with the dogs biting at his feet, arms and neck, signaled frantically for help.

A neighbor saw Brown waving from a fence post and fought the dogs off.

Brown was taken to the hospital to have his wounds and gashes treated.

Police are now on the hunt for the pit bulls.

Brown's father says that the county has a serious animal control problem.

I have been doing 10-20% water changes now for the past 4 days and the Nitrate levels in my saltwater tank are still very high. All the other levels (ammonia, nitrite, PH, etc.) are safe. The tank has been running for over a year now. What is going on?

Using bark control collar that sends electric jolt by a remote held in your hand

When the dog barks you press the button and it sends a mild shock to the dogs throat.
Is that cruel?

I had McDonald's before, and I have some left over fries. Is it okay to give some to my hamster? Because it's the perfect size to go into the cage and they are good for her to nibble on. It will be so cute!

There are stray cats that roam around in my backyard, and also some opossoms. Usually, when two cats fight, you hear both of them screaming. Every now and then, I only hear one, and I think they are being a attacked by the opossums. The opossums are about the same height of the cats, or a little bigger, and I don't bother to see them up close, because they are scary. Do they fight with cats, and if so, is it dangerous? Can they kill a cat? My cat goes out side at times, I haven't heard him out there screaming, and he has no scars, but I'm scared for him. I don't let him outside, my sister does, which annoys me.

My friend's dog has a cut on her elbow that she's been licking incessantly. How can he stop her without resorting to using one of those cone collars? I was thinking about putting something sour or spicy on it, but he doesn't want to make the wound hurt or worse. Thanks in advance!

I'm just asking because I have a 5 week old puppy and shes doing great but it seems like older dogs would be easier to train since they are less hyper...So a personal experience ? Which was easier....training a pup or a grown dog?

Anyone know what i can do to treat him so that he has a more rounded shape?
He is 1 year and 3 months old - 2ft in length and 3 1/2cm wide at his widest part. I use to feed him one small adult mouse a week up till last week, when i read that a triangular body shape in ball pythons indicates the animal is underweightt. So I fed him a large adult mouse the other day and he managed to eat it with no significant lump in his body after he swallowed it. Should i keep feeding him large adult mice ounce a week, and will this help him acquire a healthier body weight? Or should i switch him over to rats? Also, what does the skin hanging off of his body indicate? Please Help!
