Okay, my dog just had one puppy about an hour ago. Is that it? Will she have more?

Also, what can my family and I do to help/take care of it? Or should we just let her take care of her baby for now?

Lastly, when is a good time to begin playing with the puppy away from it's mother?

I've had a Rat Terrier now since December but tonight I got a mix breed pitbull that is rather large. They are both the same age but I was wondering if this is a safe idea? They have been playing ruff and the rat terrier isn't looking angry or scared about the situation.

My little anna has pneumonia. The vets last week said it was an upper respitory infection, when i brought her back in today, they did a chest xray and said it was now in her lungs, they also said her white blood cell count is still up so she is working to fight this as hard as she can. they gave me some more medicine. its called bactrim. I am giving it to her twice daily and a pill 3 times a day. the vet said i should DEFINENTLY see improvement in the next 2 days and if not bring her back monday for a bronchial tube (sp) she is also still on clavamox. I just wanted to know if there is anything else i can do. i am also putting her with a vaporizer in the bathroom with the shower running to help her breathe better. Has anyone had a dog with pneumonia? and how long did it take there dog to get better. I will say that she was eating and drinking more on her own today. any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks!

I have no i dea how it happened...but i am assuming that he fell or got hurt by something. i doubt that another cat can hurt him that much to actually break it. we jus took it to the vet about a month ago and dont want to spend that much money to take it again. he has been in the same spot for the past few days and hasnt eaten much. we feed it tuna, milk, and water. he wont eat his normal food. we would put ice on his arm. nothing has been been working....everytime that you would touch the area where he got broken, he would start meowing hysterically. What else can I do to help fix his arm...what am I doing wrong that i'm already doing?

thnx

I know that in dogs and cats pure breed are more costly than mixed. Is it the same for horses? I dont know much about horses.

I have been around many walmarts and most of them who carry betta's cant take care of them properly!! Some cups have clean water,other has filthy debris,and some look oxidized from uneaten food!!! And the Betta's who are in the big tanks with the other fishes are crowded up! I see Betta's constantly in a corner panting ,thier gills are inflamed and moving real fast with,like,20 other fishes swimming around it!Everytime i look at these things it gets me real depressed because I love those fishes and i hate seeing them this way.Not to mention most of the people in walmart who work at the pet section are either never there or have a real big friggin attitude! Have you experienced this? I know it's ''only'' a fish but please it has a life and a soul not to mention it's beautiful so dont you hate to see it this way??

Anyone have any good suggestions to clean hard water and "crusty stuff" off an old 10 gallon tank? I want to clean it up so I can prepare it to once again hold some fish.

I'm not trying to be nasty but i have heard that you need to clean them & I don't really know exactly where they are at or what they look like? Also does it hurt dogs to have this done? I have an eleven pound male chihuahua.

Which one do you think is better?

2007-06-02 15:50:55 · 15 answers · asked by alli marieee <3 2 in Dogs

From best to worst, what do you think?
Nutrafin (Hagen)
Aquarian (Aquarium Pharmaceuticals)
Tetra
Wardley
Omega One
Big Al's (house brand)
Hikari
New Life
OSI
HBH
Ocean Nutrition
Pet Solution's (house brand)
That Fish Place (house brand)
Top Fin (house brand)
Aqueon (new?)

Something else? What do your fish eat well with? Which food keeps them healthy and colorful? Do you use "color enhancing" foods? Do they work?

Thanks for all your input!

Okay you guys are makeing me mad saying my dog is adgreesive. Well my dog is great with other dogs, she is a dog that will take no threat. She will not put a foot out of the yard. She loves to sit in the fornt yard in the shade and sometimes the nabors sheltie comes into my yard and plays with Daisy but she will not go out of the yard. Yet the Chuhaha *little bit* is always off leash and come over to my dog snarling. I have no reason to leash my dog. The dog comes over and attacks her. So she beat the poo out of it. I don't like chis and neither dose my yorkie. What to do?

i adopted a 5 month old lab terrier mix from a neighbors family member. they could not keep the pup, and they were passing her around to different relatives, who kept her outside alone, locked in a barn for a week etc. she is wonderful with my husband, 2 teen daughters, and myself, but we also have 3 grandsons under the age of 4.the other day she growled and snapped at the 1 yr old, and today the 2 yr old reached towards her and she growled and tried to bite him. i dont want to give up on her, she is a wonderful girl, but my grandsons safety comes first. ideas??

Hey I was hoping for some advice on owning a Great Dane. I think they're a wonderful breed and I'd love to own one myself, but I'm looking for some answers or advice from Great Dane owners or people with experience on Great Danes. I have already looked up suffiecient information on the breed, it's needs, and it's impressive size. I have a six year old beagle who is very friendly, and I'm told great Danes are great with other dogs, people,. and children. Anyway, please give me a little advice! Thanks a lot
