Pets - 2 July 2007

We bought a puppy about 2 months(now she is 4 months) ago and we decided to buy another one just now, because we wanted her to have a playmate so she wont fell lonely. When we bought the new puppy home they started to wrestle and growl at each other. The new puppy is the size of my palm and the other is large compared to the other.I dont know if it is a sign of jeaousy or what? We put the older one in time out every time we find out she is trying to bite him. Should we buy like a mussle thing to go over her mouth or .......? Any suggestions to try get the puppies to stop play fighting in a harsh manner and just get along? (They are German short haired Pointers)

She doesn't really bite its just for play, but she does not know she is way bigger then him and by her biting him it hurts him

Ok so yeah..I have a male and female parakeet. The've been bonded since they were taken away from their parents. A few days ago..about 2 I beleive they were out of the cage and had sex. I don't know if I should expect eggs or not..but the female has been eating alot more the ussual. Is that a sign thatshe might lay eggs soon? Or is she just abnormally hungry.

I'll be buying fish for my tank today. I'm planning on getting some guppies, neons, cory cats, maybe some ghost shrimp and I might get a betta. Sound like a good combination? I won't be buying them all today - but that's the plan for the tank. I have a hex 30 gal tank. With the above listed fish - what amount of fish total am I looking at? Anything else I should add? I live in Florida and inside house temp is always around 75-78 degrees. Will I still need a heater? What plants should I get? Do I need real plants or will fake plants be just as good for the fish to hide in? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

........ Do you go for the biggest of the bunch?
........ Do you get the small cute ones?
........ Do you just pick the prettiest?
........ Or do you bring the funny-looking (possibly sickly) one home, because you feel sorry for him/her?

This could refer to anything from goldfish to Oscars, to bettas. I've bought fish for every reason listed above, at least once. Do you feel the biggest in a specific breed's tank is the strongest and healthiest? Do you feel the smallest are just babies and will live the longest, therefore you get them for that reason?

What reasons have you used for getting specific fish?
Tell me your techniques to picking and buying fish!

The most thought-prevoked answer will get the points!!!
Thanks in advance for your answers!

Recently my aunt has moved in with my family and my two dogs (pitbull mix and a chow chow mix) have not warmed to her. The chow chow mix will not stop barking and the pitbull mix is not allowed to go near her because every time she does she starts to bark and lung at my aunt. I know they are protecting their territory and it takes time for them to get used to new people. Is there anything that can be done to help them calm down and accept the new addition to our family?

both are older goldens (10 & 14yrs). One stays out of trouble but I saw him eat some plaster that the other one had knocked onto the floor...from the wall that he was chewing on. The one that keeps chewing on the cornor of the wall also has torn apart the baby gate used to keep him in the kitchen(this is why the wall was eaten, he was trying to escape), ate one of my socks (which he barfed up this morning), and ate trash from the bathroom (including 3 used tampons that he pooped out). They both wont eat and keep barfing(the one that ate the sock does at least still this morning). I cant get ahold of the owner to ask her what she wants me to do. They are drinking alot of water but not eating and the sock eater still acts like he doesnt feel good. The other one just wont eat but is perky as ever. Any suggestions? I'm thinking about giving the sock eater some veggie oil so help anything else he ate slide on out.

Hi! I'm thinking about getting a few ghost shrimp for my 55 gallon tank, but really I know nothing about them...

1. Are they benificial to such a large tank?
2. What do they eat?
3. How many should I get for them to prosper?
4. Will my opaline gouramis or Betta girls eat them?
5. Can they withstand high ph? (Last checked, mine's at 8.2)
6. Are there better varieties of shrimp that I should consider instead?

I saw them at the shop last time, and thought about getting them, but didn't since I know nothing about them...

Thanks for your answers!

i have a one year old beagle, he isn't fixed and we prefer it that way. He just recently started spraying, its only in one room at one spot we try to isolate that spot but the moment we turn our back he sprays. Is there anyway to stop a dog from spraying with out fixing them?

Hey Everyone!

I am planning to get 2 more fish at the end of summer. I have a 10 gallon tank with 2 cherry barbs and 2 cories. I was planning to get more of my current fish. Do you think I should get one more cory and one more cherry barb so it is almost a school? If you have any suggestion on either cherry barbs or cories, please plug them on you answer. Thank you.

The female Gourami brought recently (1 male - 1 female). Hasnt eaten for days and just "lies around" sometimes on the floor of the tank some times floating near the top - for hours. She seems to be vertical still, but its getting worse. Im not sure if shes "pregnant" but she kepts "chewing" all the time, (not the gills just the mouth) im doing a water change now to reduce a possible high nitrate level but i dont think thats the cause. I have 2 angel fish, 1 other Gourami and a few smaller fish which seem to be fine. ANY IDEAS please help. I've not lost any fish in 6 months and dont want to start now, well unless you count 2 eaten shrimp. Kind regards mark.
