He will walk normally for about 4 blocks then he begins to favor his front left leg. Once home and he rests, he is reluctant to put any weight on his leg. He will continue to limp around the house until the next time to go outside, where he will walk normally again for a few blocks. I'm confused and don't know what to do because of the time he walks normally. Please any suggestions would be appreciated.

After I go to college I think I would like to become a reputable breeder as well as a vet tech...I think I would like to breed and show Pitt Bull terrriers or American Staffordshire terriers...what do you guys think?? Have any of you guys bred or shown pitts before? how are they??

I know there is a lot of BSL going on. and I am ignoring anyone who says pitts are mean and vicious.

I think it is because not everyone eat dogs but unfortunately my friend thinks not. What do you think?

My cat and gerbils are going through flea treatment right now, and I have to eliminate fleas in the house as well. I would like advice on which home-spray product to use. PLEASE do not take a shot in the dark at this, this is very important and it needs to work and be safe for my cat and gerbils.

I only say this because a few years ago, my cousin had a flea infestation and she bought some flea remedy to spray around her home and it made her cat really sick. I don't know exactly what happened, but I don't need/want that happening to my pets.

Oh, and also, don't criticise me for my pets having fleas. We've only had this cat for a short while and I guess the flea larva were on her, otherwise we would've seen them earlier. She jumps on the gerbil cage and that is how they were transmitted, but now they are placed in completely different rooms and the gerbils are definitely out of reach. (I only added that because people are rude on here and tend to assume.)

Say that Person A owns a purebred Malamute with a champion bloodline, and is a champion herself.

Person B owns a Purebred Siberian Husky with a champion bloodline, and is a champion himself.

Both are registered with the AKC, they breed and have a litter of say, 7. Even though both the sire, and dam are purebred, and AKC registered, the pups cannot get registered, correct?

Am getting ready to set up my new business and want to know which toy dogs are the most popular and make the best hybrids? I will also offer purebred dogs, but will mainly focus on the hybrids since that is what people seem to be willing to pay the most money for.
Which ones do you think? Yorkies, poodles,chiwawas?

I live in an apartment right....and I want a puppy and my apartment allows up to 100lb dog and I don't want a yappy little dog. I grew up with big dogs its what I am used to. Now what if the breeder asks where I live and I tell them will they say no just because of where I live? Are there any breeders willing to give me some advice?

Thank you!

I just don't get people that hate cats and say that they are useless and dumb!! Cats are just as smart as dogs, but they just don't want to listen to you!! Why are there cat-haters out there?

Okay, well, I have a cat that my brother gave to us before he went off to Iraq becuase his wife was pregnant. SO anyways, we took him in, and he was a really really nice cat, but he was HUGE! he's a little smaller than a cocker spaniel and bigger than a beagle. He weighs 25-27 pounds and sitting up straight hes almost 2 feet tall. Wow. If he stands on his hinds legs, he can look over the kitchen counter. Well, we look it up and he resembles a lynx or bobcat, lynxs are smaller so i think hes half. Is that possible? Hes really big, and we've had some freak accidnets. If you get him mad, he'll start growling and hissing then strike like one time i was all in his face with a hat on and he bit my face and ripped it open, his big side teeth are about and inch long, and then another time i was walkng down the stairs and lhe was fighting thru the glass door with the neigbor cat, and he saw me out of the corner of his eye and bit my foot and it was so deep i couldnt even walk.

My cat is 2-1/2 years old we got her from anti cruelty when she was 5mon, she is always scared & running away, if you walk by her she runs, she won't go on any thing high, couches or beds!! "Which I like", her liter box is in the bathrm she knows where it is, but at the same time if someone is in the bathrm she urines on the throw rug! Why? the bathrm is never close for a long time, and I know she did it when no one was in the bathrm, Her behavior is weird, she is not sick I had her checked. But to me she is acting like she don't trust us, scared of us, at the same time she never showed any anger at us, never bit or scratched any one, at times mostly night, I do see her playing, but she won't play during the day, she is to busy trying not to get in our way, she will brush up against me, but if I move my leg fast she will run away!!! I really don't feel like I have a pet at times she never interacts with the kids, I am the one she shows some what attention to, Why is she like this?

her mouth is burnt black, white and blistered.
She can't eat or drink and I have been forcing water into her.
She is starting to smell like rotten meat and I don't want her to die.
My financial situation is in a place where i can't afford a vet.
I was told to give her penacillin to fight off infection.....are there any more suggestions to help her?
