List of food that dogs should not be fed?

2006-12-30 06:21:47 · 23 answers · asked by Spiderweb 2 in Dogs

My building only allows dogs that are 15" or less as measured at the shoulder. I am a big dog lover (labs, dobies, etc.) and do not want an ankle biter or a yipper. Can anyone suggest a dog with the traits of a lab that does not exceed the size limitation?

Madds is 10 mths old. He drinks plenty of water & is well hydrated. He poops every morning & night. Last night I fed him canned food, & this morn he pooped 3 times, all of which chocolate pudding.

Hard food is okay. Does soft food just make him sick? We tried before & same thing, not this bad though. Just softer than norm.

Also, his eyes are puffy. We muzzle him during the day, could that be why? Right side def feels inflamed/puffy,

He's too cute to be sick!! Help!! Do not have a vet yet, just got him a mth ago. :)

i was just wondering what crow hopping is in horses. I have this horse that like 7 or 8. i'm not really sure and when he gets spooked he'll do this wierd thing where he jumps and throws his legs forward. i can stay on but its scary. he has a very strong neck and so i try turning his head but its pretty hard.

He's 9 weeks old, kicked the dry food all over the floor but he will come back and eat only the leftover food in the bowl, and afterwards he kicked some of it out of the bowl again. I scolded him each time but he never stop. When the bowl is empty he will cry for more dry food even though it's all over the floor, he expect me to put everything back to the bowl. Weird!

I DON'T have a dog yet, but I'm getting either a puppy German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, Labrador Retriever, or Golden Retriever. How often do I take HIM to the vet, brush him, and walk him every day, if he'll live outside? what food do you recommend?

I have a dog that was neutered, but he only had one descended testicle, and the vet did not do surgery to find the other one (long story, please do not tell me that should be done - there were extenuating circumstances). So, that dog "tied" with a female in season. Is there ANY chance at all that a breeding will result in puppies if the testicle is in the abdominal cavity?

By the way - I know that a totally neutered dog can "tie" with a female in season - I have seen it with my own eyes. Of course, no puppies! But, this dog may have a hidden testicle.

I am going to buy a tarantula- but the petstore employees don't know what species it is. It is being sold for 5 dollars and is a light brown color about 3 inches in size. What is a safe live food for it It'd be particularly nice to feed her things I wouldn't have to purchase but could find (small lizards? worms? houseflies?)

What all is involved? Do you pay for the vet bills and expenses? Do you have to take the dogs to meet their perspective new families or do the families come to you? If they come to you, do you let strangers into your home? How hard was it on you and/or your kids to give up your foster dog? How long do you usually have them? How long can you have them? Could you end up having to keep one forever? Thanks!

I have a catfish who is currently in a 55 gallon aquarium, and he is not going to last very long in there, so I need to get him a pond pronto. What size /shape of a pond would a channel cat be happy in (providing they grow to 4 ft sometimes), and what kind of filter, plants, equipment should I buy for the pond?

I have a beagle-mix and she's a great dog! The only thing is she seems to ahvea tendancy to want to wander. When we walk with the leash she sticks with me and keeps up but sometimes she likes to stop and sniff at things. I'd like to walk her without the leash but I'm afraid she'll go her own way and I'll have to chase her. Are there any signs that idicate if she will or will not come when I call?
