I just got a show dog friday. He's a Basenji and he's almost 8 months. I'm not able to teach him to sit because show dogs shouldnt learn this command because they would be sitting during their inspection. So, how can I teach him to stay without him sitting?

I have just had to have my little doggy put down as she nipped my little girl above her eye. I am so sad although it was what had to be done.

I know this is a daft question but does it hurt when a dog gets put down? How do they do it, I couldnt bear to go my dad took her.

As you all know I just got a Mule which I love! Whenever I tell one of my horse friends that I got her they give me this look of disgust and kind of turn up there nose! One of my coworkers actually said "what possesed you to buy an ugly mule". I of course shot back that my mule would outride any horse she had (which is true :) ) ! How do you Mule owners handle the ignorance about these wonderful animals? It really ticks me off!!!

Been bitten by the dog at the end of the street.

He was out playing and when he was running the dog jumped up on him and then bit him on the top of his leg. The skin is broken where the dogs tooth went in and he has a graze at the side. I am just waiting for the police to come and the nhs 24 to call back so that I know if he needs a tetanus,

will the police ask me if I want the dog to be put down or will they put it down anyway. The dog has bitten other kids before but I don't think anyone reported it. the dog terrorises strangers thet come to visit people who live in the street.

I am not anti dog as I have a dog myself but I never let my dog out in the street unless I am with him and he is well trained (no classes) but the dog who bit my son is left outside daily and shlts all over the street and they dont clean up after it

I just got an 8 week old kitten and I just wanted to know if it is normal to get one that young. Of course I am taking good care of him, I just want to know that he will be ok. Also I have to start leaving him alone during the day while I go to work. Is there anything I can do to make him more comfortable...his food, litter and a few toys are going to be in the bedroom with him during the day.
Finally should I let him hide out under the bed...he's so little I get scared because I can't reach him, but i just want to make sure he will be fine under there.

I went to the Soft Paws and Soft Claws websites and I think they came in the same colors, which confused me. I'm also wondering if cats can climb things like trees and scratching posts while wearing them and if anybody's had trouble getting them on their cat and if anybody's had any trouble at all with them. Serious answers from people that have tried them only, please.

I live in a property which has a back garden surrounded by a 5.5 foot high back fence.

I have a three month old ragdoll and have been told they are better suited to the indoor life. I was wondering whether you feel it appropriate (or inappropriate) she be allowed out the back for increasing periods of time during the day, starting with daily supervision for the first month.

Is it possible a ragdoll cat could jump a 5 + foot high fence?

All opinions welcomed.

My mom is adopting two dogs from the pound today. a wolfhound and a rottwiler. The rottwiler still has a long tail. Do people remove the tail for looks or health?

These are pictures of my cat Bakery. She is 10 years old and she is adopted. She ran away from her home and was found on top of a bakery so she was named bakery. Her owners thought it would be best for her to not come back with them because they had other cat that did not like bakery. We had a sicko cat that atacked us so we put her to sleep and the vet said that we would like bakery so we said OK. We love her and have had her for a year. She first peed on the carpet and had to rip it up and get new floring. $800. now she vomits up her food and we got a new deep cartpet cleaner. $200. We get speical food and and hairball remidy but nothing. My mom regrets geting the cat but She is SO sweet. She paws at your face when she wants to be peted. So does any body now how to cure this...PLEASE! Thank you!!

I just got a new kitten today (boy) and brought him home. I have another cat about 7 mo. old (girl) and she's a little defensive of him. I knew that is was going to take time for them to get used to each other and I want to find the best way to make sure they have a good relationship together.I already have different food dishes in different areas, but i can't afford a separate litter box at the moment. I am keeping a good eye on them and giving them attention but not too much. What more should I do?

(Wo)Men say dogs are their best friends.
What would dogs say to that ? Being made to wear a collar, a muzzle, a leash, do tricks, play silly games, go hungry and always waiting for scraps of food.....etcetera
