ok i have a very LOVABLE pitbull, hes is GREAT! he protects me,sleeps with me,says hello to everyone that walks into the door,and does tricks!! but everybody thinks "omg, its a pitbull, its going to bite me" but thats not true, its the way you breed a pitbull, you can breed it correctly or incorrectly. make it a good house dog or make it fight. the ones that are out bitting people are the ones badly breed!so the question is how do i make other people understand?

I have a lake pretty much in my backyard; therefore my yard is infested with frogs, lizards, and we even saw a snake while cutting the grass!!! My daughter and I are deathly afraid of these things and I want them gone! I understand that there are positive things that they do....but at night and especially when it rains, I am terrified to go out of my own house!!! Is there any kind of repellent that anyone knows of to keep these things out of my yard? Thanks! (And for the record, I don't particularly want to kill them or get close to them! I just want to be able to walk outside without fear!)

So I just bought a lionhead who seems to be about a few weeks old. And I have a dutch whos about 8 months old. I let them both out so they can get to know each other, but the dutch seems to keep wanting to get on it, and seems to be humping it. The wierd thing is, is that the dutch is neutered. If anyone has any idea how I'll be able to bond them, it'll be appreciated.
If not, do you think it would be alright if i let them both out at different times? I'd really like to keep the lionhead, im in love with it.

Please and thank you.

^.^

I started Giving him 3 as usual, but then on the bottle of betta bites, it said 6-8 per serving, so i started giving him 8 so that is equal 16 a day. After that that i noticed that my betta was just floating like if he was full and ready to explode, that made me feel sad but i though he liked the 8 per serving, but later then i found out he didnt, so i dont really know what to do now, today i gave him 3 per serving and now he seems kinda healthier but hungry so what would you recommend me?
-thanks

Any ideas as to what kind of food they like aside from worms and bread?

It's actually really cute. I was doing some gardening for my mother yesterday when it first appeared. I was digging up the soil and it kept flitting in and out to pick worms from the earth when it thought that I was not looking...
Eventually I started finding the worms myself and would put in a small area of the garden for the bird to come and get them. It would flit in grab the worms, then fly off. I then put the worms in this area and would whistle and the bird would appear, I'd point to the worms and it would got an get them.

Today I turned up at my mum's again and when I went into the garden, I whistled again and it appeared then I put the food down and off it went to get it. It even stood about 6cms form me when I was digging... I thought these type of birds were scared of humans.. but this one is so friendly and I actually look forward to seeing it now.. ! LOL

I have a purebred border collie. He is a year old and his testicles have still not dropped. We bought him with the intentions to breed him with our female when he was old enough, but he still has no testicles that are visable. Some one told me they had a dog and he didnt drop until he was 15 months old. Jack just turned a year in march. Should i be worried about a disease, or medical condition! Any imput would be great. We use to breed dobermans but decided to switch after our ***** got hit by a car. Never had this problem before. Thank you all who reply

My cat is about 7 or 8 months old. She has a big belly and when you look from the top and the sides, it seems round. Her nipples got larger and look like filled with milk! But I'm not sure if she is really pregnant or not!! I don't want to take her to the vet because I am afraid that they will give her an abortion... I need help! How can I tell for sure!! And can you give me websites with pictures of pregnant cats so I can tell for myself? Thanks for your answers...

NOTE: THIS IS A SERIOUS QUESTION AND ONLY SERIOUS AND INFORMATIVE ANSWERS WILL BE APPRECIATED.

I have a house trained female golden retriever/pit mix. She's had pee accidents in the house before but it was few and far between. However, lately - I've had to fill her waterbowl 2 - 3 times per day (I used to only have to fill it once)... She has been peeing in the house recently and after I've taken her out just an hour before - and it's very unlike her. What are some possible reasons for this change?

ok i have this reallly small painter turtle i found. it's about the size of a quater! anyways, i kept it and i'm keeping it in a nice cage w/ food, fake weeds, and a shell moisterizer alone w/ sand and a rock to sit on. and i keep him out side in the shade (not very dark shade though) just so his cage doesn't get hot. and i clean it after every two days. and i live on a lake so when i go swimming i bring him down there w/ me and let him swim in the water (while im right there so he don't get away)
so i have a few questions and here they are...

- how can you tell if a painter turtle is a male or female?

- how long does it take for painter turtle eggs to hatch after layed?

-i think my turtle has a wonderful enviroment don't u?

i change 20% of water twice a week but i dont have a syphone whats some good small cleaning type fish or snails or crabs or whatever that would eat alage and kinda groom gravel, i wouldnt mind making my tank brackish so thats not a problem (unless Oscras cant survive in brackish but i think they can and do) this is my first warm water aquarium and its doing great my fish is very energetic and the water has a good rich soil smell so i think im doing pretty good, also i know i will need to upgrade my tank to 80gal

My German Shepard is 1 year and 2 months. Today I took her on a walk. She did well, walked beside me. The problem is when a dog who was in a fenced in yard started barking, I couldn't get her attention. I told her to sit but she ignored me and just stood in a stand/ready position facing this dog. I finally had to scruff her around the sides of her face look at her and she finally sat. The rest of the way home she was fine and walked with her tail in the submissive mood. When we got home she roamed to house with her tail up but when approached me she put it in the submissive mood. It's been a couple of months since I have scruffed her and put her on her back. Do you think I need to do this again? If so how often should I be doing it?
