There is an annoying egret eating all the fish out of our pond. Including our koi we've been raising for years! What do I do?

My vet recently asked me if I would take in a Miniature American Eskimo pup (4months) that was abandoned at their clinic after being dropped off with a broken hind leg. She has a pin in the leg and will be coming home with me tomorrow. She also was neglected and has not been housebroken yet. Is their anything special I need to do or not do with respect to the broken leg? The pin sticks out her back and she will have it removed in 6 weeks. She will be crated and restriced in her movement through the house due to the housebreaking issue. I guess the pin sticking out the back is what scares me the most... what if she rolls over or something??

They currently stay in the kitchen when I'm at work. I tried the backyard after my dog sitter died, but they barked so much the neighbors called the police.

What flea products or home remedies are safe to use on 4 week old puppies? Is Frontline safe on the dam if she is still nursing?

Im getting three female chow chow puppies tomorrow and I need names!! I don't want a really common name (ex: cutie, princess, etc.) I'd like to have some american names but I think spanish names are cute too. So please give me spanish and american names. I'll choose a best answer too!!!!

hi im just curiouse. what are some ways cats and dogs show they are happy, sad, tired, angry, hungry, they love you, pain, worry, scarce, or any other emotions? I wanna know what my pets are trying to tell me sometimes. like my cat brok. whenever i get too close he will run. yet if you ever see him lying down and you pet him he is the most cuddly adorable cat in the world. and my dog bandit. we got him frokm a abusive owner about 1 yr ago. and whenever you approach him he puts his head down and looks away as if scared. but we treat him well. also bandit my dog will ALWAYS get up off the coach if a person sits on it. i hold him down sometimes to see if he will mellow out and stay but after like 10m seconds of letting go he jumps off and lays on the floor. whats going on with my cat and dogs? and how can i tell what they are saying to me?

My baby hamsters are 11 days old now and they have grown some fur. I heard that once they grow fur, their mom does not eat them. But she ate two of the babies today and they all seemed to be in perfect condition.. What are some reasons that she may have killed them?

My Beagle is about 5 months old. He is constantly getting into things that he shouldn't and when I go to take it away from him all he does is run and bark at me. Sometimes once I have caught him he tries to bite me in a sort of aggressive way. I know that he has dominance issues with me. He minds my boyfriend better than he minds me. How do I get him to mind me better and also how do I get him to stop getting into things he shouldn't have?

I have a 3 year old German Shepherd and he wont stay off the couch. He only does it when everyone is gone. He is not allowed on ANY of our furniture, not even our bed, and never has been. He has two beds of his own and knows to goto them when told. Ive tried scolding him, sticky tape, mouse traps, piling pillows and spanking him. When I stand by the couch after he has been on it, he comes crawling over to me like he know what he did(ears tucked back and very low to the ground).The mouse traps work just great but he is smart enough to know when they aren't there. The vet recommended clear double sided tape that he couldnt see but was still smart enough to avoid getting on it so I tried putting the tape on there without him being in the room and he still knows. I dont want to have to put stuff on the couch when I leave and I also do not want to crate him. Other than the couch thing he is a extremely obedient dog. Can someone please help me out with this because im about to lose my mind?

I've heard a lot of mixed stuff about this. I've read it can make them sick and I know somethings can like chocolate, alchohol, and a lot of other stuff but I also found something, Vets, that say otherwise like here
