She's had it all day and I will take her to the vet in the morning, but what can I do tonight to stop it? She sounds croupy and she's done this before for a little bit and got over it, but never has she had it like this. Thank you

My friend has a kennel trained poodle, at least three years old, that has been pooping all over the house recently. She and her husband are both real estate agents and work long hours, but it's been like that for a while now, so she should be used to it. My friend can't think of anything new that would cause her dog to act this upset, though the dog is quite high strung. She gets plenty of chances to go outside and is otherwise well taken care of, but the past month she's obviously been upset about something. Any reccomendations to curb this behavior?

i have a toy poodle who is pretty much toilet trained.
over night when he is confined in the kitchen he only pees and poos on the newspaper provided but when i let him him out he most of the time he pees in the living room. also he does go outside. he pees and poos outside when we take him outside but for some reason he goes once in a while inside as well.
he mostly goes on the newspaper or outside but it's just sometimes he goes inside.
why's that? i correct him normally by saying NO when he is doing it and then carry him to the newspaper. is that ok? do i need to change anything? why's he doing it in the first place!?

I have seen/heard some pretty ridiculous claims made by people regarding their dogs. What is the strangest or most laughable old wives tale that you have ever heard about dogs?

I'll get it started - EATING RAW MEAT WILL MAKE DOGS BLOOD THIRSTY.

It is like someone who has parkinsons disease would do I guess would be a better way to explain it. He dont do it for long but it is pretty scary. It is kinda of like he his cold or scared maybe,but the rest of his body dont shiver.When I cover him up or scratch behind his ears he stops. Any advice? I am very paranoid about everything my animals do that dont seem normal. Am I just being over paranoid or what?

I spent the night out and came home to find my boy to have hives all over his body. Took him to the vet and it was an allergic reaction but we didn't know what caused it. A few days later i found a flea on my female dogs ear. I bathed them with Dawn dishsoap and only saw one dead flea in the tub. I look on them for fleas constently but haven't found another one yet. They have bites on them and itch to the point of just tearing up their skin(bleeding) and hair loss. I put revolution (had one left from before) on my boy and sprayed the carpet and furniture tonight w/ a flea killer. And they continue to scratch continuesly. You should know when i first rescued them (8wks old) they had a bad case of mange (never proven in skin scrapings) that i battled forever, finally curing w/ nu-stock. They are now 3. I guess my ? is can one flea cause all this and if not why can't i find anymore. Please help cause my poor little babies just look miserable and i don't know what else to do.

The mother is a rat terrier\ chiuahuah. The puppies are very small. I can hold them in the palm of my hand. A friends dog had puppies and they all lived when they were born. But she said that later 2 died because of fleas. I dont want that to happen so any advice that would help I would greatly appreciate. Thanks

She begs for people food even though we dont feed her any except a little banana as a treat. but I know shes hungry. she just doesnt like this dog food I guess but i looked it up on this forum and innova is the best dog food. My mom says dont mix her dog food with people food or shell want that her hole life and it will be bad for her. I try mixing water in it but she doesnt want it some days she just doesnt eat then the next day she eats or she'll be picky.She's 14 pounds and I try to feed her 2 cups a day. She gets a ton of exercise. Should i just get a pet store brand food that she'll like? THANKS

links to tank supplies for the turtle docks they have in the tanks at the fish or reptile stores? I need something sturdy. My pond turtle is in a tank and she can't get out of the water to bask because she falls off the dock. I have bought the largest dock in the store along with a a hollow log that floats and its pretty big..and she just can't do it. I need a solid rock that will stay in position and she can just climb up onto but nothing that floats. Those don't agree with her. Thanks!

I also read that I can get some grass and put it into a bowl and microscopic things start to come alive. Then it said that you can feed the micro. things to the fry. I think I'm going to give them blood worms that I'll cut up. What do you think? Blood worms or bacteria?

what would possess someone to train their dog to use litterboxes and puppy pads. i always thought dogs natural instincts were to go potty outside. do u agree with my theory. my theory is that people that r too lazy to get their butts up and let their dogs outside go out and buy a litterbox for their dog. i find it pathetic. i mean it just makes me crazy. would u ever train ur dog to use a litterbox

I just got an iguana, and he was fine the whole night I got him. But now he's head bobbing at me, and when I pet him he's using his leg to push my hand away. I let him roam around a bit the night I brought him home, and that was 2 nights ago. Because of the new surrroundings, and the new cage etc., should I keep him in his cage or let him roam around for the next week? And how long will this last before he's friendly again? Only experienced answers please.
