i took my dog out on my boat with me today to go fishing with my boyfriend and me and she accidently fell in. she was only in there for a second but she went completly underwater. she is acting like she is fine but i heard that it is really bad for a dog to get water in their ears.

If the chinese word for Iguana is translated in english it would be "green mane lizard" so I am confused about the right chinese word for this.

I was hoping someone out there would be able to help me out,although this mix is rare, I would just like to know an approx. height,weight,and length,since I can't seem to find anything anywhere on this mix. Thanks to anyone who responds! Or if someone could show me a picture of their full grown mini daschund pit-bull mix that would help as well!!

I still feel like an a*hole.

I mean, he came around as he usually does, (when he's starving and knows he can trust me for food) he was just lying in my yard patiently waiting for me to come and feed him. Ran up to me purring and ate. Then I cover him with a towel and threw him in the house as his claws were flying all over the place. He calmed down a bit and now he's in a cage.

I mean, he just looked SOOOOO peaceful and happy lying in my driveway!!! lol Seriously, it was so freakin cute. Lying on his stomach with his paws out but bent in and kind of curled inwards.

But even with street and highway smarts (stays away from it) he's not in good shape and he wouldn't make it out there much longer with those damn tom cats. All that land to roam isn't good if you're living in fear. He's only 7lbs too and not a fighter, I've seen him cornered and he hunches down. :(

My cat is really weird - he plays with his toy then he carries it to his food dish and puts it in it - he does this everyday. Why?

My aunt was told by the breeder to feed her mini australian shepherd adult food (nutro) or the warranty would be void. I think that's bullcrap... advice on the matter?

Does anyones bearded dragon actually drink from a water bowl? Mine will only drink from it if I drip water into it so it makes ripples in the water. Other than that, I spray him with water and he licks that off his head.

my kittins have a bunch of fleas on them, and one of the kittins is highly alergic to the chemicals we use, (even tho ment for kittins) he licks himself and starts to spit out foam and his eyes start to wonder in diffrent directoins, but there are literally HUNDREDS of fleas on them, and if we don't help them, off to the pound they go, and i really don't want that. so please help me before it gets worse than it already is!! i will read every single one, i don't want to many chemicals use on my kittins, i don't want to kill them , they r still only kittins for crying out loud!!

I am using a drip system to acclimate my black molly to saltwater. It has been running for about 2-3 hours, and its at about 1.006. Should I continue the drip all day, or is it better to take a break every few hours? Thanks!

My betta jumped out of his tank the other day. I found him, popped him back in and following some suggestions on another yahoo question put a little more slime coat in his tank. He was doing better in a day (perked up and was eating), but now his fins are looking raggedy and I can see pieces of fin on the bottom of the tank. Do you think he has fin rot or is this a sign of stress from his recent suicide attempt?

i recently purchased a violet goby and i noticed it behaving strangely after a few hours in the tank. it stays near the top of the tank in a vertical position, and from what ive read about them they are natural hiders, i also read from one source that this could mean my alkalinity is high, any suggestions on this behavior or adjusting alkalinity? when i tested the water it said it was fine

Does anyone have any idea how to stop my lovebirds from breeding? Perhaps a medical procedure? Someone at work mentioned there might be something I can add to their drinking water.

Thanks for your help.

It will be a puppy. It will be a girl. I like names that are unique but not too crazy.

How would you about taming a ferrel kitten. This one is about 6 to 8 weeks old. It came up to my house and is living on the back porch. It runs and hides everytime we walk out the back door. Husband has been calling it Scooter because of the hiding...
