Pets - 11 September 2007

These meats are a few to maybe 6 months old. I would fully cook these meats first of course. I've heard that in the wild dogs digestive systems can tolerate the consumption of spoiled meat from animals. I know that household dogs are domesticated and used to a different diet but I think their stomachs could possibly handle the consumption of these older, freezer burned, but not spoiled meats. What do you think? Thanks in advance!

I recently got a 6 month old black lab from his previous owner who said he could not afford to care for the dog properly. he said the dog recieved the 1st set of shots but that was it. I was wondering if I need to get him the missed sets or if I can just jump the most recent. I believe within the 1st year a puppy is supposed to have 3 main sets of shots then rabies. The dog seems to be in good health eats well and has lots of energy. I live out in the contry and can buy the shots at the local feed store but need to know what to buy.

he hasn't taken it in 2 months and we're worried that he's going to get heart worms soon, does anyone have any ideas of how we can get him to eat it? he's really a small dog, he only weighs 7 or 8 pounds and he just turns his nose up at it whenever we try and give it to him at the beginning of the month, if anyone has any good ideas you'll get 10 points in the morning, thanks.

I really want to get a puppy, but I'm not sure what kind to get! I would like to get a puppy that's sort of big. I want to avoid getting a very small dog, and I want something that barely sheds. A non-shedding dog is perfect, I'm allergic to dogs that shed A LOT. I might be able to get a puppy in a couple months but I just really don't know what kind to get.

Thank God! My area will soon have breed specific legislation and it's long overdue in my book. Some breeds just were bred to be alpha dogs and aggressive and no amount of "socialization" or training can override DNA. What do you think of the ever growning BSL? Facts are facts and even the most fierce toy breed dog cannot kill a grown man but many large dominant breeds already have, a zillion times over not to mention children and other animals.

I have two small dogs. One is a Chihuahua and she is in heat right now. My other one is a Shih Tzu and she just turned 7 months. I am wanting to get them both fixed but I am not wanting my Shih Tzu to come into heat before I do it.

My question is: I didn't know if a dogs cycle is anything like a ladies. Meaning, if you have a group of girls that are always together, they will more then likely have their cycle together. Since my Chihuahua is in heat, will my Shih Tzu be more likely to come in?

I know that this may sound like a silly question. I am getting them both fixed and would like to do it at the same time (after my Chihuahua's heat is over) but I do not want my Shih Tzu coming into heat before I get her fixed. So I am just wondering if I should go ahead and get her fixed before the other.

attacked by a male cat and my cat is female!!! Why did this happen and is she growling at him when she sees him because she hates him or wants to mate with him?

We have 8 pitbull pups for sale. They are registered with ADBA. I have them on puppyfind.com & online-pedigrees.com. Does anyone know any other pitbull kennels I can connect with? Or where I can post an ad to sell the pups?

And I don't wanna hear any BS about pitbulls being vicious...blah, blah, blah...if you don't like pits don't bother answering, I don't have time for ignorance.

Best answer WILL be chosen. Thanx in advance!!

I have just lost my very best friend, my dog. I never imagined the grief would be so bad. I feel lost, empty, and miss her all day, although she was so ill, I still feel guilt to agreeing to her being put to sleep. No one seems to understand! Just wondered if I'm really crazy, or if anyone else feels like their world has ended, because of the loss of their dog.
Thanks xx

I got my pitbull to calm down enough so now I can walk her without a leash(no leash law) but when people see her they walk to the other side of the street so what I am saying is is it dangerous to walk her without a leash

They got it last week. In that time, i lost both goldfish (which i found out after i bought them that they shouldn't have been in there anyway.) i've also lost my pleco, a black skirt tetra, 2 ghost shrimp, and a molly.

My temp is at 84* and i cant seem to get it any higher. they have aquarium salt in their tank. I bought the dissolving tablets last week and it seemed to almost go away. after using that for a few days, they ran out, but i figured that the high temp and salt would help make sure the ick is gone.

well...i guess it wasn't. it came back full force on my other black skirt tetras. my platys dont seem to have it, nor my blue guarami. but they are staying in the tank for treatment just in case.

should i isolate my tetras since they have it the worst? their back fins now seem all torn away (fin rot?). i'm so worried i'm going to lose the rest of my fish. i started yesterday with quick cure , and it doesn't seem even the slightest bit better.

any advise?
