I have a Geram Shepherd which I love very much. I have had him since he was a pup 7 years ago. He has always been a very good dog, very loyal and VERY obedient. However over the past few months he has gotten out of control. He acts nervous all the time and his energy level has shot through the roof. I have put flea medicine on him religiously since he was a pup but now he acts like I am killing him. I have to use force in everything I do with him. He is not aggressive just completely obstinate. I am at the end of my rope. I could understand if he was a pup but good grief he is 7 and never acted like this before. I am getting to the point that I do not even want to be around him. I know that sounds bad but believe me when I say everything I do with him or to him is a chore. I don't understand what his problem is. He has been to the vet and recieved a clear bill of health. I am contemplating putting him on medication because I cannot take this.

He is a pretty laid-back dog and seems to be getting enough exercise. I just want to make sure that I'm not forcing him to hold it too much during the day.

My roomate and i can't even leave the room to go to the bathroom or the puppy will be on top of the coffee table chewing and eating anything in sight. She has knocked over numerous drinks and tried to eat anything that she thinks could be food. I don't want her to get sick, hurt herself, or destroy something I need. I have been working with her on the off comand, but that seems to be going nowhere. What can I do??

My cat died last night. My parents found the body cat next to our house. The cat is very possibly our cat. Cause our cat hasn't return home today night. We are betting that the cat we found was our cat who was ran over by a car. But my dad says that the cat they buried was a slightly different color, and didn't look exactly like our cat. Could it be possible that this is another cat? But its too coincidence to not be my cat. Cause my cat isn't coming back.

I was wondering if it is possible that the pound visited my town and caught some loose pets. Do pounds visit towns sometimes?

I am looking for ways to get my mare thinner. People say she is the fattest horse at the barn and it doesn't make me happy when they call her Fatpache instead of Apache. What can I do? I will accept product reccomendations also.

I was on vacation and my Akita was at the kennel for two weeks. Since he has been home (5 days), he has barely ate anything and once he does within two hours he has the runs. Has anyone experienced this problem? Could he have a kennel bug? Or is he just not feeling well. Please help me ... I am getting worried about him.

I can't stand the Paris Hilton types walking around with a damn Chihuahua. I ask them to leave the dog at home or in the car but they insist its a guide dog. How can it be a guide dog in your purse ? What if it needs to take a crap ? Dogs look miserable in those damn purses. Isn't it hazerdous to walk around a grocery store with a damn chihuahua ? This is one trend thats making me sick and I hate walking around stores and seeing them advertising Dog purses. Thats animal torture isn't it ? I know I am just grunting. I hope you feel the same way ? Is it just me or are only white females into this crap ? I mean C'mon

I have a 7 year old Staffy and he has a hell of a time with itch! I have tried everything from this special oil made from sea cucumbers to zinc to bicarb... Nothing seems to help him?? I have a feeling that since he had it from such a young age (he was dumped and when we found him he was riddled with it) maybe he is just itching as force of habit? And has anyone heard anything good about Chickweed gel for Staff itch?

I had a cat named Winnie who I loved and cared for. I had her almost two years. Today, I came back from Petsmrt to get her a toy, and she was limp and barely breathing. I immediatly called the vet and began to collect her cage. When I went to get her, she was dead. Now I can't stop crying everytime I think of her...what are some ways to console my sadness??
