Pets - 23 June 2007

The reason I think its a hairball is because I have another dog thats American Eskimo that sheds a lot.They play constantly and I have on many a occasion taken hair out of my dogs mouth while they were playing.I am on disability and have limited income, theres no one that has more love for their pets or treat their pets as well as I do mine . If I had the hundreds of dollars to do the tests I would but since I dont and I have good reason to believe its a hairball why not at least try to treat that first to see especially since its my only option since I cant afford the tests.

He won't let my boyfriend touch me without trying to nip at him. Even if he tries to put his hand on my leg, my dog, will go right at him. My dog is so protective of me it's driving me nuts. I can't even get close to another male person. He's ok with female people, but if a man comes to visit or something, he will try to keep him away from me. How can I stop this, it's getting worse and worse and I don't want to neuter him yet as I am breeding him in the Autumn time. Please help! I'm desperate. If me and my boyfriend are in bed, my dog will go nuts when my boyfriend tries to cuddle me or anything. I can't leave him outside the bedroom door cause he'll bark all night and wake the neighbors. I live in an apt. building. Any ideas?

I have had so much trouble out of my fish tank. I have done what the pet store has told me to do. I have bought bottled water to out in their because my water was to hard and the Ph levels was though the roof. I have gummys in my tank and they keep dieing. Is it the type of fish or what? I have lost 8 in the past month. What other fish can I use that is the best fish to take care of. Please help

She hasnt really eaten anything in last 3 days got her to eat a lil bit of jerky last night which she gobbled down like she was starving ,Today you can tell she wants it but wont eat it.She is still drinking water tho.Except for the actually bringing something up she has all symptoms of a cat that has a severe hairball in its intestinal tract. Took her to vet and all they want is for you to spend hundreds of dollars for a bunch of tests not even relating to the possibility of a hairball.Any help would be greatly appreciated cause I am not sure how much longer she will last if I cant do something to help her.

I`m buying my daughter a Leopard Gecko. Do I need to fit a heat light in the vivarium if I`m using a heat mat. The viv is quite small and fitting a heat light would be very difficult. Would a simple strip light do?

I got him from a bird store where he was hand fed. He is about 7 months old. I have tried putting the fruits and veggies in a bowl for him, but that isn't seeming to work and I've tried giving it to him when I'm holding him too.

My ragdoll has ALWAYS hated getting his claws trimmed. Ever since he was a kitten he has bitten, scratched, and fought for his life every time I tried to touch his paws. I tried taking him to a groomer, but they had a hard time gave up on trying! Even the vet has to muzzle him during vet visits. The only way I have been able to trim his claws is when he is asleep, but now that he is getting older (1 year, 2months), he seems to be getting wiser :(

I do not want to declaw him, and I cannot get soft claws on him either. Will I have to take him to the vet every time he needs his claws trimmed? Does anyone have any ideas???

do you think banning pitbulls will solve any issues with dog attacks. i believe banning them will only solve a fraction of what the true problem is. the ignorant owners who let there dogs be this mean should be punished. What do you think?

I have taken her to the vet and gotten the Cortizon shot, which does not help the constant itching or biting, they even prescribed her a little yellow allergy pill, which failed as well. My poor dog is now getting a bald back, near her butt and a bald tail (those are the main places she bites). The vet told me I can give her 1-2 Benadryl a day ...which seem to work as long as I keep them in her system ... she is just really lazy after those though. Is there any other option that anyone knows of that could help her allergies ..maybe something the vet isn't telling me? The vet I take her to is very paticular with the way he does things, and I fear he maybe isn't telling me about other options out there.
