Tiny dog saves baby from rattlesnake Mon Jul 23, 1:38 PM ET



Zoey is a Chihuahua, but when a rattlesnake lunged at her owners' 1-year-old grandson, she was a real bulldog.

Booker West was splashing his hands in a birdbath in his grandparents' northern Colorado back yard when the snake slithered up to the toddler, rattled and struck. Five-pound Zoey jumped in the way and took the bites.

"She got in between Booker and the snake, and that's when I heard her yipe," said Monty Long, the boy's grandfather.

The dog required treatment and for a time it appeared she might not survive. Now she prances about.

"These little bitty dogs, they just don't really get credit," Booker's grandma Denise Long told the Loveland Daily Reporter-Herald.

It's swimming around in the bag right now and I've got a fishbowl for it (from previous pets). What should I do so I take good care of it?

Once I saw this really pretty fish at Petsmart; I think it was a type of goldfish and looked like a shubunkin but it was only 2-3 inches long and costs $2.00. I thought shubunkin were a lot larger?? It was white with black and orange spots and long fins. How big are they when they are babies? Also if I dont get this type of fish what breed should i get for a 20 gallon tank and also a 50 gallon pond?

I think they are all the same. The aspca estimates that only 10% of animals shelters get are neutered/spayed. Tell me your opinion! Just want to know!

Is there a fertility pill for female dogs. Like there is for human women. i have a dog and id like to be abile to keep her infertile when she comes in heat. i don't want to get her fixed because she is a pure breed rat-terrier and i do breed her but on the occasion i don't id like to keep her from have a mixed litter, not to mention if she breeds with a large breed dog it could potentially be dangerous for her an the pups.

p.s you could say restrain her to keep from getting pregnant but kenneling for a long time is cruel and were there a will theres a way when it comes to dog mating .

His veterinarian said that he has lost some of his teeth, and he's been chewing on things a lot lately. He goes for pens, paper bags, boxes, etc. He eats both canned and dry food (Nutrience Senior formula).

His appetite has not changed, but he doesn't seem to like his dry food anymore. He seems to have a hard time chewing it and will often throw up whole, unchewed kibble.

I m getting a ten gallon tank and i will keep it in my room. (courtesy of my mother) it will weigh about 100 gallons. i have to fill my other 5 gallon up outside with a hose, that is what i usually do before i carry it upstairs. should i just first set up the tank where i want it to be and then go outside and just keep filling up a bucket? and taking trips upstairs until it is done? is there a faster way to do it? i m in no rush, i m just wondering. and also, is it okay to keep it without a hood? or a cover? i m not getting any type of fish that jumps. i have seen them without a hood and they seem fine.

If you use raw fish, make sure it is less then 24 hours old.
1. change you use to your using
2. remove the comma after fish
3. replace less with fewer
4. change then to than
5. change hours to hour's

the most effective combination of the sentence would include which groups of words?

don't use freshwater fish. It may cotain harmful paraites.
1. don't use freshwater fish containing
2. don't use freshwater fish to contain
3. don't use freshwater fish it may contain
4. don't use freshwater fish, and it may contain
5. don't use freshwater fish because it may contain

what correction should be made?
deer ticks aren't a problem in and of theirselves; however, if they bite you, they can pass on nasty infection called Lyme disease.
1. change aren't to weren't
2. change theirslves to themselves
3. replace however with because
4. insert a comma after infection
5. no correction is necessary

I thought my fish is pregnant,can a female fish have what looks like the gravid spot without actually not be pregnant.Or maybe I am inpatient?I've been watching her close for a few weeks and I believe that she is getting fatter and darker.Does anyone have a good picture that I could compare her to? Thanks.
