Since we have been on the topic of walking on previous questions, I thought I'd ask about your leashes.

What type of leash do you use for your dogs? Any good information to share? Anyone use retracting leashes? Do you have other good leashes to recommend to the group?

As with previous questions, you all know I cannot answer myself.

I do have some additional information to share about a family member. This person has 5 dogs. When he takes his dogs out walking (with his fiance), he uses the 2 loop nylon leashes found at any pet supply store. He says they are nice because that 2nd short loop lets you have more control if needed. He also uses a 20ft training lead when he is practicing recall in a park.

As always, your answers are eagerly awaited and I will choose a best answer.

Enjoy this question which still is most certainly not a poll.

This is my boy Falco.
He has his faults but we'd be interested in hearing what you think of him. Not selling or anything - just want an objective view thanks.

I have two small red-eared sliders, and one of them seems to be having a problem with his shell. They both live in a ten gallon tank with lots of swimspace, a basking area, a filter and some plastic plants to hide in - I have taken very good care of them since I recieved them as an Easter gift in Spring. Both are active and strong.

Recently, one of my turtles has developed a problem with his shell. At the back top part of the shell, the plates have softened and look like they might come apart when touched. There is a white, thin buildup of some sort on that area of the shell. I think this may be caused from something in the water.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong and how I can treat it, as well as prevent it?

Thanks ahead of time!

If I yell at her in a certain way - maybe when I am VERY angry at her for something she did - or if I scream out in pain - for example when I burned my hand on a pan, she will jump on me and dig her nails into my skin and growl. She has done this since she was a kitten, but when she was little, she just "play bit" me nothing that actually hurt. Now she has ripped my skin up so much that I have scars. My husband said to get rid of her before she does serious damage to me or someone else, She has never done this to anyone but me. Has anyone else had this happen or know of someone? What makes her do this?? I would appreciate some feedback . Thanks.
