My Chihuahua is 1 yrs old. Her head dont shake. It looks like the meat between her skull and skin is vibrating there are a little bit of spit bubbles. this has happened twice. she seems alert while this happens and it only last a few seconds. Im not sure what it is or what to do for it. I just wanted another opinion before taking her to the vet. She is also having what looks like cramps in her jaw that makes her whine alot so if there is any advice on how to take care of this please help i feel really bad for her it makes me sad to see her like that

Thanks for any advice

I know i just posted this but I really need answers.
My family has a mixed breed dog, her name is Sugar. We all love her so much. She is lost and we are checking the pound in the morning. I am pretty positive that is where she is. Our neigbors dont like us. So I think they took her there. I told my daughter we could get a new dog if we couldnt find her. She has already started looking for a new dog. I know she loves this dog because she cried and cried when we couldnt find her. Know she is feeling guity because she has already started to look for a new dog. What can I do to cheer her up? Dont put ignorant answers.We just got her and we dont have pictures of her so we cant do flyers. How should I comfort her if Sugar isnt there

We have been giving them bloodworms for a treat but it seems they can't stop craving them.

OK, the goldfish that was aggressive was put into a vase and now he is opening and closing his mouth rapidly, is there anything I can do to save this fish or is he a goner?

She's part golden retriever and part...something else...I don't know what other breed because I got her from a shelter. She's very hyper. She bites my ankles and I know she's trying to play but it hurts and I just push her off and sternly say no or I ignore her but she doesn't stop. Also when I'm sitting in a chair she jumps up and wants to shake hands and if I don't do it nonstop she claws me all over. I was taking a nap and she jumped up on my leather sofa ripping a whole in it and clawed my face. She doesn't mean to hurt me, but it does. Another thing is I have cats and she is eating the cat litter! What the hell should I do? I'm so overwhelmed. I know people who smack their dogs with their hand or newspapers but I cant do that. I cant smack an animal. But Im going crazy! Please help!

My neighbor is constantly complaining of my dog and when he barks. I live in a city that has a "no barking law" and when a dog barks the owner has 7 minutes to get the dog in doors. I am going nuts with these neighbors constantly complaining about my dog who cant even bark for a few seconds or I get a phone call or a call from the city. So the latest situation is when she came over to complain AGAIN and was greeted by my daughter and my dog .Well she is now complaining that my dog scratched her when she came by. I was not home but at work and my daughter who is 20 yrs old said the dog didnt even come near her but did bark at her. So the city calls us and says we have to keep him in doors now for 10 days for a possible scratch ...not a bite...but a scratch. Infact the city was so nice when they called about the situation they said that they have several complaints against these people for harassing other neighbors. I really do not know what to do. Just move???

There's this horse show i go to a lot, once a month during the season and the judge favors some people and dispises others. Most of the trainers and riding teachers hate her because it . . . it's obvious! we all know, but we can't do anything. luckily, she's retiring! i could go on and on about what she's said to and done to and said about my friends and sister and people I know! but i'm not gonna because that list would be too long. tell me about your worst horse show judge experiences (not the ones you just hold a grudge against because they placed you badly!)

I have a goldfish that seems to be reaking havoc on the other fish in my tank. The fish chases away all other fish in the tank once they go in one particular area. Is this behavior normal, and should I take him out of the tank? Help, I really don't want to stress the other fish in the tank!!

I want to feed my adult Red Earred Slider some vegetables or fruit. But I don't want to feed him any kind that will make him sick. So what kinds are good?

For example: I was riding my mare down a hill one morning. We were zig-zagging our way down when she slipped and fell. I was able to clear my leg from under her, but when we hit the ground I took a moment to catch my breath and look to see where she was. While I did that my mare stood up and promptly fell again. This time the point of her hip went into the small of my back and caused some significant kidney damage. It really hurt and sometimes still does, but I learned that when you hit the ground - for whatever reason - you get the heck out of the way because you can never be sure of what your horse will do. Other great injuries have included:
3 broken toes = steel toed shoes and horses don't mix
torsion of a testicle = whenever possible, you a saddle with no horn to teach a horse to canter.
destroyed right knee = have patience and set small goals
2 broken wrists = falling is just as much a skill as riding!
There have been a lot more, but what are some of yours?
