Ok, so we took our dog to the vet today and they examined a large lump on the side of his mouth, practically in it. The vet said she hadn't seen anything like this in the mouth before. It's a little larger than a marble, round, as big as a canadian dollar. It's black, and has 2 lumps on it itself, gray and a red stringy thing.

Anyways, she examined him, and said to remove it would cost $380. $40 for pain meds for him. She didn't seem concerned that it was cancerous, but said another doctor will look at it tomorrow before the surgery for clarification.

His surgery is in a few hours. I know that it'll go well, but nevertheless, will they pull this over my head and say it's cancerous at the last minute, or charge us for something else?

Thanks,
Mark

I just moved in with my bf. I have a golden retriever (3 1/2 yrs) and he has a husky (3 yrs). Everytime would would have them meet, they would always fight. Well, i just moved in a few days ago. My golden had pinned down the husky and ended up putting a good size gash on the bottom of his paw right above the top pad. They are not neutered, both males. We have talked about neutering them. Then again, there is no garuntee that that will work. Does anyone know what we can do to eliminate the need for an alpha dog? If not, then what can we do to keep them from fighting without having to keep them seperated all the time? We are both busy during the day, but are home nightly.

OK I have 1 betta 3 mollies and 2 dwarf gourami. I came to loo kat my tank and noticed one of my mollies tail was all ripped up and swollen! I assumed it was one of my gourami, because he had been chasing everyone around. I DID NOT see it but im assuming becasue my betta has been getting along fine with them. So I separated the Gourami into its own 2.5 tank. My dumb brother poured some nox itch into it. It wasnt ALOT but it was more than it needed. So I did abotu a 40% water change. WILL I need to do a 100% change? or leave it? And will my mollies tail be alright???? WIll it heal or die. He has been sitting at the bottom make a little bit of swims in the tank. I don't want him to die!

I forgot to add that she has been kenneled, many times - everytime we put her in there..and come home, she poops in her kennel. EVERYTIME she has done it, over 10 times. She doesnt pee in it, just poop. Its very frustrating - So I felt that I needed to add that, because I was getting a lot of responses that I need to crate her...but Ive tried this...and for the record, she is 8 months old, and she is a blue heeler/black lab mix.

When I say she rips up everything.....I mean EVERYTHING!

Any help I would greatly appreciate it!

I just purchased a Chihuahua puppy. She was reasonable priced, and I saw her parents. She didn't come with papers, which is fine, because I am not interested in breeding. The only concern that I have is that she has no tail. The lady I bought her from said that she was born that way, and the rest of the litter DID have tails . I saw them. Not that it matters, because she's mine now regaurdless, but I wonder what the standard is for Chihuahuas and their tails!

I recently bought my betta a 2.5 gallon tank. It came with a Whisper filter, but it was too strong for my betta (it sucked him into the filter) so I immedentialy took it out. He has an air pump in their from his last 1 gallon tank but no filter.

Does any one know of a good filter for a betta that WON'T suck him in?

Is it because she can sense she is sick? It's sad to see, but what can I do?

The alpha dog (border collie) has been sick for 2 weeks, and the past 2 days my other dog is challenging her. What should I do?
so far, I don't intervene, I keep an eye to make sure it does not turn into a fight. So far, it's been "friendly" but it's definately not a behavior my "submissive"dog usually has...and usually my border collie replies pretty quickly but not anymore. I really noticed the change today, while walking them and while playing with them in the yard, my other dog was taking over.
any suggestions? would it be bad for the moral of my sick dog?

While I was holding him he started to shake, I put him back in his cage right when he started, was he cold or scared? Did I do something to scare him, he was just around my hand for like 10 mins being still then started to shake...
