Pets - 29 August 2007

I have a border collie i have took him training and he done really well apart from the pulling side of it. My border collie unfortunatly has an enlarged heart and when i walk him he just wont stop pulling. I am worried because he makes his breathing really bad when he does it as he has an enlarged heart. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop him pulling.

My mother recently purchased pet insurance. Does she have to pay the vet first and then wait for the company to pay her?
Also has anyone heard of PetCare insurance. Respond to my
email dbell412@comcast.net

I have a little over a year Mini Schnauzer, She's never been sick before, and I really don't have the money to take her to the Vet at the moment... For about 4 days now she keeps throwing up and acting sickly, Each time she drinks a little later she will throw up, She won't hardly eat or do anything but rest and sleep... I don't know if she ate something that made her sick or got a hold of bad Dog Food or Treats... If anyone knows anything about this please help. Thanks.

Does anyone know of a rescue organization or breeder in the U.S. that have Irish Wolfhounds to buy or adopt?

Okay its totally gross but last night I found a small brownish worm on the floor near the cats litter box. My cat was de-wormed in June. I left him at my parents house for a week while I was on vacation and my parents have a 4 month old puppy. Since I got my cat back I noticed that worm last night and I tried looking at his butt and I think I see a worm sticking out....I'm totally grossed out cuz he likes to sleep on my pillow on top of my head and I dont want worms anywhere near me or my house...HELPPPPPP what do I do beside competly santize the house

My horse is an 11 year old quarter horse/appaloosa gelding. REcently I went on a trip to Oregon, and when I got back, the person who was supposed to be taking care of him had lunged him twice. This is the same person who sold him to me. This horse has really small heals, and has the hardest mouth of all the horses I have ever ridden. I have also found when I ride him on the trails, he comes of lame with stone bruises. He has alot of energy and is 16.1 hands. He cant jump, all he is good for now is riding in an arena. I want to trail ride thogh with my friends but I cant becauaswe he is always lame. HELP The seller took advantage of me and my mom and still takes advantage of me. I asked her to work with him for the week that I was in Oregon, you know, riding and stuff, she lunged him TWICE!!!!!!!! What do you think, any answer is going to be very helpfull to me. This is the first horse I have ever owned. Peace

My mother wants a new cat or kitten. She is going to adopt from our local shelter. The new cat will be mostly outside, in her sunroom, and in her garage.

All of the cats at the shelter are reasonably young. Should she get a 6 to 8 week old kitten or a cat that is 2 to 4 months old? Will one stay closer to home than the other and be a better outside cat?

She may decide to adopt two cats. Is that a good or bad idea? Does it matter if the two are close in age, or would a 8 week old and 4 month old be okay?

Thanks for your insight and, yes, the cats will be spayed or neutered and vaccinated.

It's getting really dirty and I don't know what to use to clean it. The gravel is really dirty, but the water is clear. Please help me! I have too many beautiful fish for a dirty tank!

I ask this because of a respect for other pets and people that I have seen arise in some of the questions. I think this will give me a great view on those that respect the public and those that don't. Some of you will actually know and understand what I am talking about.

My dog is getting spayed as I write. The vet told me this morning that she will be going home with the lampshade collar and she has to wear it for 10 days until the stitches are removed. I can't see my dog willingly wearing this. Has anyone dealt with this before and have any advice?

I usually ask a neighbour to feed them but they are sometimes away at teh same time as me and it would be useful to leave their food and water in a hopper.

This dog has displayed some aggression toward small children (nipping, one time biting a hand, but not breaking the skin). If I let the new owner know about this and give full disclosure, can the owner come back and sue me if anything happens once they take the dog? I'm in the process of giving the dog away and I am concerned that if anything happens in the future with this dog, I'll get sued.

Have been thinking about a second dog for a while now. Owned a doberman years ago who simply died of old age :(
There are plenty of breeders locally if i wanted a pup but im quite happy to offer an older dog a home.
