A friend of mine gave me a male black puppy, with some white color around his face. His hair is growing fast and I can see it getting a bit curly but nice like a fairy. He's 2 months old now , and yet can't think of a name. Don't want a name of a person for him.
Any suggestion ?

The first 2 times I left him in his kennel was while I was grocery shopping (about an hour). The 3rd time I left him it was for a few hours. I put his kennel in the living room and turned the tv on for him. His kennel is only big enough for him to turn around in and lie down in. It's not too big. I was always told that dogs will not go to the bathroom in places where they have to lay down in. This is not the case with my puppy. He has pooped in his kennel and walked all around in it and laid down in it. What am I doing wrong?

I am training my own service dog and I have been through so much research I cant even say! I looked very hard for the "perfect" dog and I honestly thought this was it.
So me and my mother decided to bring him home for a "baby sitting" trail and see how he reacts. Well, the whole approach was a disaster. We did not introduce the dogs properly and he growled at first. *(Now he is nice to them, and plays with them. He will still growl if my male/neutered papilloin is on my bed with me.) He first met my dad, and this was a neg. experience. My dad was rude and scared Montee intentionally. That was only the begining. My dad scared him a few more times, and finnally stopped. When my dad thought Montee was "ok" he called him over. Of corse, motee was scared and Dad grabbed his collar to pull him over, and Montee reacted in a protest. (Barked and maybe fear bit, but he in no means lunged forward but back.)
Now Montee is afraid of my brother when he first walks into the house and other males.

Would a rabid dog snap off their leash? A few days ago i was walking to the library and a dog on a leash that was being walked by its owner moved towards and growled at me. After he passed me, I saw him trying to pull a flower but its owner pulled it away with its leash. Is this a rabid dog?

Oh kay...i am training my 8 month old chihuahua and right now i am working on calming him down. because when i first got him he learned to play rough and is very frisky. i cant even touch him without him running away from me. so im working on that right now and he is doing great so far. also i am working on his potty training which is also going pretty well minis the ocasional accident. And i still need to work on a lot more things. Like his tricks and good behavior but i like to start with the basics. like sit,stay, laydown, potty training, and calming him down. see im covering all those sections, but i was wondering if you know, how much longer do you think its going to take to cover everything he needs to know?

i just got two mice today from my friend.. turns out that one looks pretty pregnant.. they're both females. what do i do if i don't want the babies? i dont think it would be too humane to let them loose outside in the cold, i can't keep them, if you suggust giving them to a pet shop.. will they just take any mice given to them? is there maybe a really humane way to "put them to sleep" without like, hurting them? its horrible to say but i really don't know what to do.

Cause I was watching youtube and I found that a bunch of people thought that the whole display was barbaric, and cruel. (I guess that the cobra wasnt protected) Some were surprised that the snake didnt eat the mongoose, or that he won at all. Considering that the mongoose wasnt even bitten is this sort of fighting cruel to the animal? (Nevermind about the snake..) Isn't this kind of battle sort of natural and heroic? Doesnt anyone remember Riki Tiki Tavi? Should people be so indignant about the treatment of these animals and reptiles if only the snake gets hurt/killed? Is this any better or worse than bullfighting, rooster or dogfights. Anyway I thought the level of discourse on youtube was rather vitriolic so I open it to you yahooers.
