My sister wants to breed her pedigree poodle with another poodle, then give the pups to kids with asthma, as poodles are allergy-free.
Does anyone know where she can find a male dog for her female one, whose owner wouldn't charge too much, as the pups would be going to needy homes?


To all you self-righteous anti-breeding people out there - GROW UP!!!

I had terrible asthma as a kid and was desperate for a dog. Eventually my mum found out about poodles and I had one for 17 years. It brought a great quality to my life and that is why my sister is inspired to do this.

All this stuff you lot spout about there being too many dogs out there may be true, but there are NOT ENOUGH dogs for asthmatics - especially ones given out free from the goodness of someone's hearts.

I went to the vet to get my puppy vaccinated the other day and the doctor's answers seemed a little odd. I want to know if anyone thinks the same.

I've been feeding him a very good quality food but he said you don't want to feed him just Nutrience for the rest of his life. My sis asked if it was ok to switch to a cheaper supermarket brand, he said "certainly!" He encouranged changing his diet and letting him try different brands (with a gradual change ofcourse). He said to feed him food scraps. My sis aked if bread was ok. He said "yes but not too often". I thought he would of said "certainly not" or something. He told me if I wanted to buy a crate, he showed me with his arms the length of around 1.5m long, which is quite large for a maltese crossbred. He told me that I didn't have to buy odour cleaners from the pet store, instead clean with normal cleaners and just give it a final good wash with water. I never heard you could do that before.

Tell me what you think???

My Betta Fish almost died. My mom had took him out of his bowl to clean it, we had him sitting in a cool whip bowl, until the other water warmed up a little. Well when it was warm enough I got him and put him in his regular tank. When I put him in there he almost died!! All of his color faded out, and he would float at the bottom, and struggle and stuff. I know something was wrong with him, but I just don't know exactly what would have caused this. He was totally white. But within an hour he recovered and he is fine now. I am wondering what could have caused this????

I found fleas? (i'm not sure if it's called fleas.. it's small and sneaky!) anyway i found a lot of those in their(my guinea pig) hair. So I gave them a bath. But after giving them a bath there are still many fleas left. I guess I didn't know how to. therefore my question is can i bath them again? if yes, how? Or should I just buy flea powder? if ever, is it safe? please help me... i love Asti and Jigger so much these parasites might cause them illness.... :(

I have a parakeet that I recently started feeding hamster feces. He demeanor has changed completely. He acts if he is sick. I was told by a pet store owner that feeding daily feedings of hamster feces would make him more alert, friendly and all in all a better pet. At first he would not eat it, but believe it or not he started about 3 days ago, and has not acted right since. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong with my pet? Anyone else using this method for a more friendly parakeet?

He is still very lame and shows no signs of getting better. We are starting to lose hope. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I have two brothers 18 months from rescue home. When I got them they had just been neutered. One of them had a problem peeing after and was going every 10 mins & it was a bit pink. he stayed at the vet for the night & the vet said he was fine. Now, 6 months on, I see his brothers pee in the litter tray is sometimes a bit pink. Otherwise fit & healthy & happy. What could be wrong?

also if your breed needs a jacket in cold weather would you like to be able to get something more stylish than the tartan things you can get in pet shops?or do you think clothes for dogs is just silly?

I have a 5" Angel fish that is looking very poorly. Not sure what the problem is or what I should be doing for it. All of it's fins are looking very ragged and worn away. Is there something that I could put in the tank water to help mend the fins? If the fish does not get better, is there a humane way to put it out of it's misery? The Angel fish is in a tank with two other Angels that are very small and one Clown Loach. I've had the large Angel for about 3 years.
