There are some puppies up the street for sale. We have been doing a lot of research on breeds but haven't decided. I like the idea of a mixed breed, but I'm not sure about rotties.
Any insight?

Was wondering if I need separate litter boxes for each cat or will they share? I clean my box everyday for my current cat. I've never had 2 cats at once.

Ah yeah, my 6 week old puppy just got slung and chewed up by my three year old labrador. Has a few gashes on his neck and taking him to the vet isn't an option at this point. I don't know what to do =(

Ok so my cat is over a year old and has previously had no issues of not using the litter box, until we purchased some old magazines and placed them in the same room her litter box is. is it possible that the magazines smell odd and she is trying to mark her territory and if so is there anything i can spray on the magazines so they wont smell.

also, she gets plenty of attention, always has good food and water, she has been spayed, and her litter box is ALWAYS clean.

My dog is currently on Nutro Max dog food. I want to change her food because she doesn't seem to like her food and she is shedding a lot. I know its shedding season right now, but she seems to be shedding a little too much. When she was a puppy I had her on Cannidae but she didn't seem to like that, so i switched her to Innova Evo, and she didn't like that either, and now shes on Nutro Max and she seems to have lost the taste for it. In the beginning she loved the nutro max perhaps because it was a lesser quality food and taste "better" because of all the stuff they did to it. BUt now she just doesn't like to eat it, what healthy or healthier dog food recommendations are there for her? Should I give her Innova or Cannidae again?

I will be crate training the puppy so he'll be in the crate when we are not home and to aid the the housebreaking process. I read somewhere that the puppy should sleep in a puppy bed in the same area where family members sleep (the bedroom). Won't it be difficult to work on housebreaking the puppy if he's not confined to his sleeping area at night??? I don't have a problem with a dog bed in my bedroom, but am concerned about nighttime accidents.

On the previous feeding, I fed him two medium, fuzzy mice. He ate them very quickly with no problems at all. This last weekend I fed him an adult mouse. He ate it with no problems. The next morning I saw that he had thrown it back up. All mice were thawed and warm. Now he doesn't even stick out his tongue to smell his surroundings. Before he was very alert and energetic. Now he seems confused. I had thought the tank was chilly but it is at 75-80 F all the time. I tried again to feed him but because he wasn't smelling with his tongue I don't think he knew what the mouse was. I'd like to know why he doesn't sense his surroudings with his tongue anymore, and if I need to take him to the vet.

I just read in a book that you shouldn't let your chihuahua sleep with you because you might roll over and squish it? Does anyone else have a chi that sleeps with them? Have you ever heard of this happening?

I've had a Senegal parrot for about a month, she's 6 months old and she won't stop screaming. Everything that I"ve read says don't pay attention to her when she screams, but she is ALWAYS screaming. It also says reward her when she's not screaming but she starts screaming whenever she sees me, so she's never not screaming. It seems she's happy and that's why but either way, I'm at a loss and she's making my home miserable. What can I do?

Ok so i'm moving to texas and my sisters dogs have fleas and ticks. I have dogs and I dont want them catching any of these fleas or ticks because I'll be living with her while I"m there. She tries to get rid of them but I think she's having a hard time because the little tube thing she uses doesnt kill them so they end up on the carpets and sofas. I know there is some kind of pill the dogs can take and the fleas and ticks start coming off. I've seen them doing this on "animal planet". Do i need to take dog to a vet to get one of those? I dont need ticks on me OR my dogs. Please help. thanks.

My brother is allergic to a protein in dog saliva and its pretty bad. if he gets it in his eye his eyes puff up and he could possibly go into shock which could possibly kill him. MY brother also has asthma. Along with that he is mildly Autistic so he wont move out of the house any time soon. Im 15 years old and i want a dog! He hasnt had a rection in a long time and i know you can grow out of it but im a little afraid to test it. I thought of a plan to keep the dog outside 24/7 so saliva dosent get tracked into the house. my mom dosent want to risk it though. Im trying to find a way to make this all work, so please help me or suggest somthing or if you had a similar problem please let me know of your progressions. I really want some feedback so any help would be appreciated! (P.S. We have a nice backyard, its big)

my dog is having pain in his back left foot. He doesn't want to put any pressure on it so holds it up as he walks. He is really good about coming to me for help when he is in pain, so I was able to check out the pads of his feet and in between his toes for thorns or cuts/scratches/bites. I also felt and moved all of the bones in his foot and leg. He was comfortable with all of the touching and there doesn't seem to be any "hot spots". There doesn't appear to be anything wrong- no swelling, no redness, no visible injury. What could be wrong?
