My dog was spayed on friday and is doing quite well. She is an outdoor dog and wants to be outside with the other dogs so badly ( I currently have 2 dogs of my own and 2 fosters ). I am going to call the vet tomorrow and ask when she can play safely but I wanted to get some of your opinions. I just dont want her to hurt herself playing too roughly. What do you think? I am still going to keep her indoors untill the vet says its ok for her to roughhouse, but she is driving me crazy groaning and whining to go out. I do take her out on leash to use the bathroom but she wants to wrestle with the others. How soon has your dogs been able to resume normal activity?

Fluffy was okay last night, slept on the bed half the night, got down to go to her litter box, came back and jumped back down and spent the remainder of the night on her 'other' bed in the closet. this morning I came out and noticed she was drooling heavily and was holding her tongue out between her teeth. At the same time I noticed, my husband said Fluffy isn't acting right. It also seems she has difficulty swallowing and shakes her head to get rid of the excess drool. She did eat a few snacks, is still purring at our touch, still wants to be in the same room with us (she's a little love), but just isn't acting normal. I'll watch her today and take her to the vet tomorrow, but has anyone ever seen this in other cats? She adopted us 9 years ago after being left by the previous owner of the house we bought. It was vacant for 6 months and she looked pretty scroungy. It's amazing what love and attention can do. She's a beautiful long hair & is the biggest love ever!

My cat belches and farts (yes, out loud) and I wonder if this is normal for cats or has he just been around a house full of teenagers too long? He's almost 11 years old and is a fixed domestic shorthair, ginger-colored. He answers to Chester, Cheddie, Baby, or anything else anyone calls him.

Has what appears to be some sort of dry skin? I guess... On her face by her nose, the fur is gone in a patch the size of a nickle, and the skin has little bumps, and seems to be irritated... I just need to know if anyone knows what the heck this is... Vet's are expensive and I'm BROKE, however I can swing medicine to help because it's VERY affordable on petmeds.com and you dont need to be a vet to get meds to treat your animals... So, I need to know what the heck this is so I could get the right meds to fix the problem...

I am about to start a tropical aquarum and I am considering an open top tank design with a suspended light. Will this design of tank cause excessive evaporation or condensation in the room or am I better off going for a tank with a fitted lid ?

Okay..let me give this a whirl. I am so confused on what to do. I own both the Sire and Dam. I have 2 beautiful Boxers that some how tangled up and Dam got pregnant. I tried very hard not to have this happen,due that I wasn't sure if I was going to let her have a litter or not. Why,because of what has happened. I always said if she had a litter,I know I would want to keep one. That would mean 3 boxers. I would have her fixed after. I do not want to breed more,just a person with great dogs all the way around that I love..and know they would have super dogs for people to love as much as I do..smile. My concern is my Zoey and Boss get along so well and I am afraid of the horror storys some people have had with having 3 dogs. So I guess my questions are ..Do dogs get along better when it's parents and pup? Will they still fight for the alfha or beta when they get older? Is it better to have 2 females or 2 males? I have a huge yard for them to run in. House is big enough? Help

I know that they are probally to young but, can I at least wash the puppies with puppy shampoo? Can I wash the mother in flea shampoo? Should I just use puppy shampoo on her as well?

I came home to two dead fish (both Hora loaches), several plants uprooted and my sunken pirates ship floating at the top of the tank. The Loaches had been in the tank for almost 2 months with no problems (I have 1 Jordans Catfish, 1 Upside Down Catfish, and 1 Betta (male)). I have a 12 gal Marineland in the hood filter and live plants. I feed (Tropical flakes, Betta pellets, Catfish sinking pellets) 2 times a day and Bloodworms every other day. Both the Betta and the Catfish readily take food from my hands and they seem to pal around together (they also are terrified of the upside down fish). All three are doing great. What caused the Loaches death? I'm assume somebody killed them, due to the carnage. I want to add some schooling fish, any sugestions? My Betta is a marble, with long fins.
I'm working on getting a 55 or 120 gallon tank as I know my Jordans Catfish will get too large for my 12 gal (when I get that could I have 6 Angel Fish in with him)? Any suggestions for this tank?

Sort of a poll, I guess.
What's better?

A) Feeding my dog Solid Gold: Barking at the Moon dog food, and feed him raw /once/ a week?
(or)
B) Feeding my dog Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul dog food, and feed him raw /twice/ a week?

Chicken Soup has a 4/6 star rating. And Solid Gold: BatM has a 6/6 star rating and has no grains.
