I contacted a local breeder by email, informing them that I was interested in their puppies and the time frame for the purchase, along with some other details. I asked about upcoming litters, and also if they could provide references. I received a very short reply that really didn't address any of my questions. In the pictures the puppies look healthy and adorable, and I have a co-worker that purchased a dog from them some time ago, and they are happy with their dog. However, I am very put off by this short, impersonal response, especially the lack of references. What should I do?

Please don't say rocks. I keep the turtles in deep water to rocks won't work. Last time my dad used a styrofoam and it got WAY dirty. It had all that nasty stuff sticking on it. Now, my dad wants to use the box that holds eggs. I asked him, why can't he just buy a dock? He said he doesn't want to. Any ideas?

How do i stop this, becuz cleaning up the mess is tiring me and plus it smells bad

It was a cool dog. I do not think it was a pit bull?

I think it was some kind of terrier.

Thanks.

Currently I have two false percula fish, one Flame Angel, small starfish (not sure in species), 5 hermit crabs. I was told I may be able to fit 1 one more or two small fish, I was thinking a clown goby (yellow), or a Cardinal (orange striped or silver and black), but if there is something else uyou think that would be a better addition?? Thanks!!

I caught a garter snake in the process of eating a frog. It was in my back yard and will have to be relocated - too much contruction in my hood and there will no longer be habitat for it. About 4 hours after I caught it, it threw up the frog it had swallowed. I'm taking it to a creek down the road tomorrow, what do I do in the mean time?

Tapeworms, my dog ate it and i told her not too, will she have worms inside of her???? Please do not say take her to da vet because i will, i just wanna know whats wrong with her, what could be wrong???? Not something confusing either. If you have had this problem and expierenced with this, please explain!!! The questions I want you to answer....:

Does my dog have tapeworms inside of her from eating the food?

Why were there tapeworms inside her food and how did they get there?

Is the anal gland full?

When i take her to the vet, if she has worms and an anal problem, how much will this all cost?

She won't poop so i can't see if she has any worms yet???

She's brown with a little black on her face! She is so cute! Please help me though, I stink at thinking of dog names. I don't want to name her "Happy" or "Yippy" or anythign that has to do with her personality....I think it's to common. So, long story short, Could you help me think of some unusual names for a female Yorkie pup?

I have a pure bred CKC Shih Tzu that just went into heat! I also have three different people who want me to use their studs. I just don't know though!

One is a Lhasa Apso. He seems nice, but his owner wants a puppy AND a stud fee.

The second one is a Jack Russell Terrier. This dog is extremely high strung, but his owner only wants $300 as a stud fee and that is half of what I can sell a puppy for!

Then there is the Miniature Bull Terrier. He is a little bigger than my girl, but only 5 lbs, that shouldn't be a problem, should it? They only want pick of the litter.

So, what do you think? Which one should I use?

I'm a full time college student, and when I have to leave home for school, my female maltese, who is a puppy, gets left home with my parents. She is 7 mos old. When I'm home, she is with me, I feed her, walk her, and let her be on my bed. When I'm gone, my parents keep her locked in her kennel, don't let her out to go to the bathroom so she goes in the cage, and don't feed her. They say they do nothing for her because she is my dog and my responsibility, but while I'm gone she goes unfed and lays around in her own pee/ poop. I've tried convincing them to at least let her out to go to the bathroom but they refuse. What can I do?

Hi, I have 2 mollies currently in a 10g tank (one male, one female.) They both can grow a max. of 2.5 in. So I have 5 inches of stocking space left in my tank. What fish can I add? I was thinking neon tetras, maybe a group of 4? Also maybe 3-5 ghost shrimp? Do these fish require the 1 inch per gallon rule also? I don't think they do.

If neon tetras don't work, then can you give me some advice about other small fish I could get? I thought about guppies but again I wasen't sure. Thank you!

PS: My tank has salt is kept between 78-82 degrees, and I have a filter, heater, 3 fake plants, 1 hiding tube-like cave, an air pump and large air stone, and a hood w/lights.

PPS: For all of you going to say "You should keep 2-3 female mollies per male" I just want to say my male molly is not a breeding machine. He is calm and doesn't bother the female alot. Actually, the female seems more aggresive than the male!

Hi,

I have an 8 month old Black Lab/ Terrier Mix. He's 40lbs and in great shape. Last night around 7pm he had an explosive diareahha event. We thought nothing of it as his mood didn't change. Nothing else for that night, but this morning he woke up at (6am) and was lethargic. Slow going, but still active. He went potty and had a softer than normal movement. By the time I went to work (8am) he was more lethargic than when he woke up. I went to work and rushed home at Noon to check on him. By this time I almost had to force him to get out of his crate. We went potty and (normal stool) there was a 2in peice of plastic that looked like a coffee stirrer in his stool. I mean I have never seen him this slow paced, he's usually a non-stop little spark plug. I stayed home after that, called the Vet. He said to fast him for 24hrs and limit water. Now 9pm and he pretty much won't move. I need suggestions. He is not sensative to the touch anywhere, belly is soft, nose wet, paws normal. Thanks!

I saw my fish this morning and I thought he was dead. When I got closer I could see that he was still breathing and moving, he's swimming with his head down and his body is sort of bent in half. I think he may have swallowed a small rock and got it lodged or something. Anyway, hey can sort of swim but he struggles and kind of just lets his head float around 'til it finally sinks. What's up? What should I do?
