I have seen ppl post that they use the dog's crate as a way of punishment.
Im afraid that will make my dog feel as though he did something wrong everytime I put him in there (night, nap, while we are gone).

Isnt that sending the wrong message?

The only time I put him in there for something he doesnt do, is go to the bathroom outside, so that way I know he wont go in the house. And I dont punish him while I put him in there for that reason either.

Ok...we started this crate training when he was 10 weeks old...he would whine for 15 min. and then settle down. Now for the past 2 weeks, ONLY when the door is shut on him, he will whine and drool so much that he is 2/3 of his body is soaked and he feels very warm. I tried to ignore him and then he was just so soaked. We both work so crating is almost a must! It appears that when we are in the room with him and he is in the crate it is worse no matter how we ignore him. He pants like he's dying. But, if I just keep the door open and put him in there he will chew his toys, etc.
Any suggestions or alternatives? We thought about blocking off a room instead.
Thanks!

I have a Stallion that has ALWAYS been fine out in the pasture with cows. All of a sudden one day I see him bullying, chasing and (if caught) grabbing them with his mouth on the back of their neck and he will bring them down to the ground. He even gets down on his knees to bring them down. He NEVER did this before and I haven't a clue what caused him to snap. When we finally caught him, he acted as if nothing happened. He was calm cool, and collected. Albeit it took us 2 hours to catch him. Any ideas?

Our dog has been at the vet since Saturday morning and it's Monday morning now. He's on the vets treatment, getting shots of the antidote and well we just don't know what to think. If he is still alive 2-3 days after, is that a good sign? I know just the smallest amount will have an effect, and doesn't take long before it starts having an effect on a dog.

My husband and I just bought two blue rats- which we already love. We are getting them familiar with us and we were wondering what kind of tricks can rats learn and how can we start training them to do these things???
Any ideas and thoughts would be awesome, thanks to all!

He was bitten by a stray cat, he is vaccinated but he seems to be in a stupor, the vet was here and gave him necessary meds and cleaned the area. But he is so ill and lifeless. What should I feed him, he keeps clawing and biting at things out of sheer pain. There is pus coming out of the area. I am so terrified, please help my cat. He is 14 years old and very skinny and weak.

Can I use those plastic carrier as a crate? Most of the wired ones in the catalog look so monsterous for my dog, I was thinking to get one of those plastic travel ones and use for crating and transporting should I need to. Please advise, thanks in advance.

Doesn't seem to matter where the cans are when we bring in groceries, he can find just what bags have the cans of cat food in them. I can understand the bags of dry food, but the cans?????

I have a 10 gallon aguarium that was given to me, it came with a filter and the aquarium. No hood w/ light, no heater, no gravel, no plants, and no filter cartridages. Since I have to buy all these things seperatley should I just got to Wal Mart and get the whole kit with filter, tank, heater, food, hood w/ light. Would it be cheaper to do that or just buy everything seperatley?
