Pets - 6 July 2007

I found it in my backyard chirpping and looking for its parents but it cant really fly yet. I think the nest is all the way up this giant tree that i cant get to. Should i keep it or leave it? I want to help it survive because without me it will die because it cant fully fly yet and already fell in my pool once. Help!

I have two small dogs about 6 months old. They have flea collars on, but I'm still finding ticks. Do I have to treat the yard and if so what over the counter product can I use? Do I have to treat in the house as well? Help please....

How do I stop my puppy from biting?

How do you house train a puppy?

What should I name my new puppy?

What kind of dog do you have?

The guessing games the little kids play?

Why does my dog do_________________?(what ever)

I wish more people would "Search for questions" before they post of these questions. Or how many know you can do this?
The same questions pop up & no body is telling them to post their question in the green bar.

The ignorance.

The stupidity.

Isn't there some way we can avoid the same questions over & over & over again?

I just brought in a litter of 2 kittens who are 2 weeks old. I have a Hartz bottle and formula, purchased from Wal*Mart. The kittens won't suck however, and I'm terribly scared that they're going to die from being malnourished. Is there any way I can get them to suck on the bottle? Or should I just give up and let someone better qualified care for them? I don't know what to do.

Alot of people judge pit bulls to be that way and its really getting on my nerves!! I mean maybe if some people would look at how their treated, they would know why some are vicious!!! My friend has a pit bull, catahoula mix and she is the most gorgeous and well trained dog ive met!!! I mean the first night I spent the night at my friends house, my friend was upset and she was sitting in her dogs tie up space and I made the mistake of walking into her space well my friend was upset... dont worry I didnt get hurt but the next that dog was leaping over me and playing.... it was amazing. I never held a grudge against the dog and me and the dog are best friends!!! So why are pit bulls labeled vicious and dangerous??? I honestly think they are miss understood!!!

I have 4 guppies, 4 neon tetras and 2 black tetras along with 3 guppy fry. They're all being kept in the same tank, although the fry are floating in a plastic tub above the others until I can set up a nursery tank. I was treating Ich using Interpet Aquarium solution #6 though the active ingredients are unknown. This appeared to be burning my fish so I decided to drastically cut the dose and raise the temperature of my tank. On very informed adivce I raised my tank to 84 intending on raising it to 88 but stopped because I was concerned for the fry, can the fry handle such extreme temperatures, especially since they are a few days old at present?. If I was going to do a salt bath, would this be wise with pregnant guppies? (one is showing a very darkened gravid spot).
As a result of cutting the dose, the signs of burning have lessened dramatically. I am also doing daily 10-20% water changes with the gravel siphon to try and reduce the ich levels in the water, is this wise?

My friend is purchasing a betta and in her 2.5 gallon tank it seems kind of bare. At the pet store an employee told me that some spieces of frog get along well with a betta. How would I care of these frogs? Can you take them out of water, what do they need? Ant info would be helpful (HELP MAGICMAN!)

We recently aquired a puppy (shepard mix) and an silky terrier. Both are lively but neither eats as much as they should. We were advised a puppy needs to eat 4 times a day but we're lucky if we get two meals in her. Terrier is older and was abandoned but apart from having lived on the street seems only slightly worse for wear. But she just sniffs her food and walks away. The only thing she has accepted is roast beef that her rescuer gave her (two days ago.) I'm getting worried. What do we do?

I just got a 5.5 gal goldfish starter tank, and one of the things that came with it was an Elite Stingray 5 submersible filter. Does the whole thing go underwater? or do you keep the thingy moving water out of the top out of the water, to oxygenate the water with a waterfall? no aerator came with the kit (none mentioned on the box), so I was wondering if this was supposed to serve a dual purpose. Only the filter was in there, no box or instructions for just the filter. Also, how often should I change the filter cartridges? Don't say anything about being too stupid to own a fish, because at least I'm asking, and I bet all of you had lots of questions with your first couple of tanks! Thanks, sorry about the rant, people always post things about people not being responsible enough or not deserving to have fish.

He chirps like a bird, He run's by you and sqeaks like a mouse or makes a drrrrruuuu sound, on hot days he pants like a dog, and if you accidentally step on his tail he quacks like a duck. The weird thing is that he doesn't meow. Does anyone know what's wrong with my cat?

Do you think I can train 2 Shar-peis (which are guard dogs) to protect my Yorkie as well as my property? I understand how hard it is to train a dog and am willing to take my doggie to classes as well as spend a lot of time with them. The shar-peis would be dividing their time from my home and office.
