Hi, I recently purchased a new puppy. This is my first time owning a dog so I'm quite new to this. My question is how to train a puppy to urinate and take a crap outside oppose to random places she has urinated to my house. So far it has urinated and took a crap outside a few times compared to the numerous times it has done in my house whether it's on my carpet, by the door I can't seem to train this dog. I'm new to this to this and I don't know how long it would take but I've had her for a week so far. How long would it take to train a puppy. By the way it's a 2 month old almost 3 month old Siberian Husky. Also the feeding schedule I have for her is I feed her twice a day. I feed her at around 10 in the morning and 9:30 to 10 PM at night. Usually I feed Royal Cannin. After 40 minutes to an hour I walk her after she finishes eating. Is this a good time frame from and after I feed her I should walk her? In need of some suggestions THANKS

So i figured out that the reason my plants keep dying is because my 20 gallon tank only has a 20 watt light! So i went to my local fish store to get a 65 watt light (what the guy there recommended)
and it was $70!!! Does anyone know where i can go or a website i can go to to get one for a lot cheaper? Thanks

I just got a young male guinea pig like 2 weeks ago. I love him and everything but I think he is lonely. I have tried to make him as comfy as possible. Should I get another male friend? I don't want to get him a female because you know what would happen and my mom would not like that! Or could I trade him for a female guinea pig and then get another female? What should I do?!

We just adopted two tabby kittens age 10 weeks. We have 2 guniea pigs age 2. We got kittens instead of cats thinking we can train the cats to get along or leave the guniea pigs alone.
The pigs are on the ground in a big cage my husband built them. Anyone have any suggestions?

OK... I am kinda worried about this... I have a two year old cat that was negative for feline lukemia when she was a kitten. We got her all of the vaccinations for FL when she was little. When we went to the vet with her a few months ago the vet said she did not need another shot because she was an indoor cat. We recently brought home a cat from the adoption shelter and now my fiancee is worried that the kitten may have lukemia.. Is my cat at risk even thoughtshe has already been given her shots???

I currently have a female guppy in a breeder trap, it is one that is basically made out of netting, and was wondering how to use one effectively while breeding guppies. She is showing all signs that she's getting ready to drop her fry. I was also wondering the pros and cons about them and how people feel about using them. I myself feel bad and want to let her out but want fry more.

I was thinking about plexiglass and 1X1s but im up for any other options too. The cheaper the better as long as its safe.

She went through the regular discharge following the birth for about 10 days, but now, the Male is eagerly stalking her and her discharge has re-appeared.

I am afraid she is "Fertile-Myrtle" !!

I am fostering a pair of dogs; a large male golden retriever and a female rottweiler mix. The female has started spotting; I have found a few spots of blood on my floor. I have never had a female dog before, and I do not know what this means.

Both dogs were found and I am fostering them until we find a new home for them together... so I do not know their history. I can see that the male is neutered... but how do I know if she is spayed? Will she still have spotting if she is spayed? Will the bleeding stop after a little while? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
