I don't really want a heavy shedder. I'm okay with grooming, just not too too much, like a show poodle. I'm not a couch potato, so a energetic and playful dog is best for me. I'd like a fairly intelligent dog, who is not a big time barker or biter. Can you suggest to me some breeds that would suit my lifestyle best? Thanks!! Happy New Year!!

ok, ive had hampsters before, and right now i have a chinchilla. Ie had the chinchilla for a long time, and have had 2 hampsters(not at once) while having my chinchilla. Well the thing is, my mom siad i could not get another hampster because not enough room in my bedroom. well, we opened up the 2nd floor (rented it out to people as an apartment) and now my room is up there, it is a lot bigger. im going to ask her if i can get a hampster again.

So the advisce i need:
what should i say to help for a yes?
ive been thingking and thinking, and cant really come up with anything, im not good at this stuff.

Do not worry that you are helping a hampster into a bad home, we have a dog, 2 cats, chinchilla, and a rabbit, and have had many hampsters, mice, turtles, hermet crabs, and lizards! I/My family know how to take care of pets!

ty very much, you advice is greatly apreciated.

I seriously doubt it otherwise they would be putting their money where their mouth is.Instead of talking about something they know nothing about.I rarely ever see a stray dog in my neighborhood if I do and it comes to my house I look until I find the owner.If I don't find the owner i advertise in local paper and put out flyers.Never had to take one to a shelter.

A client called and wanted us to locate 8-10 team roping horses to look at for possible purchase. A friend went with us to evaluate 4 horses. He purchased these a week later. He then went to the auction and bought 6 more for them to see. The customer then called and said he was not going to be able to come and see the horses and to stop looking. NOW this former friend wants us to buy all ten horses. He claims that we were partners in this deal, since he bought them for our customer. Neither us nor our customer ever said buy them. We locate horses for people all the time and if they want to purchase, that is their decision. Then we get a commission from the sale from the seller. Do you think he has a legal leg to stand on, since he has threatened a lawsuit? We have offered to help him sell them, but he is demanding all of his money now.

I have a Peke-A -Poo (I don't know what that is either) and what looks like a Corgi.

The Peke is named Monkey Man
The Corgi is named Miss Piggy


Piggy acts like she's scared of her own shadow and won't play with any of the dog toys I bought. If you pick her up she goes stiff as a board. She wants to be petted all the time. She sticks her nose in her food bowl and throws it all over the floor.

Monkey Man has severe separation anxiety. I've tried everything I can think of (except drugs) but he still goes nuts when I leave. When I leave I have to put him in a crate or he wil pee and poo all over my apartment. Even though I make him do his business before I leave, when I get home he's done his business in the crate again. I trained them to use a litter box but if I don't watch him when he on the patio he pee's on everything. What is wrong with them???????

I have been looking for an older female dog for ages now and have had no luck. We live in a spacious flat that overlooks parks and would walk her 2 times each day. So we need an old lady really.

I am really experienced with dogs having grown up with rescue dogs and my mum is seriously doggy(too many Barbara Woodward books)! And now I am in a position to have my own. I or my boyfriend is always in.

But having looked at all the rescue centres there are no female dogs that are old enough and so suitable to live in a flat. Also I have a 6 yr old sister which visits me. So I know its a tall order.

DO YOU KNOW ANY RESCUE CENTRES THAT TAKE IN LOTS OF OLDER BI*TCH DOGS THAT I CAN TRY OR ANY FEMALES LOOKING FOR A LOVING HOME?

My roomate has two cats and apparently she doesn't know how to buy cat litter, I don't think it's my responsibility. Is there anything I can find around the house to replace store bought cat litter?

I can't afford to pay for one, only the vet bills. The dog will be taken great care of. I live in the state of Ohio, can travel to Indiana, Pennslyvania, New York, and Kentucky.

The dogs and cats dig holes in my flower bed. I can not plant shurbs or flowers in it. They dig them up.

Ive had my dog a lab/collie cross over 2 and a half yrs now. He has always been a bit naughty, but Ive managed to straighten out most of his issues with vigourous exercise. Now however he has started barking at people who are just walking down the river bank, on his lead he doesnt make a sound but off he charges at people and terrifies them, I dont know where this has come from as he has never done it b4. Id really appreciate some help with this as he is a hyper dog who needs the freedom to run off his energy, and at the minute i just cant allow it for his own safety and others. thanks

I have a 15-year old cat whose kidneys are failing. I've read he needs a low protein diet, but have no clue what to feed a carnivore who won't eat veggies. He's not digesting his food right because of the protein in his food not going thru the kidneys right, and he's basically a walking, furry bag of bones. I realize soon he'll probably have to be put to sleep, but he still seems happy and purrs, so at this point I'd just like to put some weight on him. So far all I can get him to eat without meat or fish is mashed potatoes and cream gravy (from a mix, no real meat or milk in it). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if it's just a rumor, but I've heard that adult dogs who are unspayed and have never mated are at a higher chance for getting uterine/breast/testicular cancer than dogs who are unspayed who have mated before. Is this true or just a myth?

And yes, I know that adult dogs who are unspayed are at a higher risk for reproductive cancer than pups who get spayed early.
