Sometimes when my horse starts picking up her pace...I pull back on the reines and tell her "wooo" in attempt to get her to stop. Sometimes she just fights me and won't stop unless I pull back real hard. Why is she doing this? Sometimes she is fine and stops well but other times she does this.

My 9month old male Sharpei/retreiver mix is booked in to be neutered tomorrow.

I have now started to worry that something may go wrong, how likely is this?

Has anyone had anything happen to their dog whilst being done?

She is about 20 lbs and she has thick hair, she is a wire fox terrier breed. I like to conserve energy so I don't want to have to have it up high, but I don't want my dog to be cold either, thanks

Our kitten is very sweet, but our big problem with her is that she cries and whines. If we lock her out of the bedroom, she will sit outside the door and cry and meow ALL NIGHT. We do not want to let her in because she will wake us up all night by pouncing on us or pawing at us.

All the training stuff we've read has said to quickly open the door and squirt her with water. We do that, and she just comes back two minutes later crying more because she's wet.

What can we do to stop this behavior?

My puppy just turned 6 months on Saturday. Sunday she went into heat. She was schelduled to be spayed today but I've been told to wait until her heat cycle has finished. How long after should I wait?
The bleeding isn't too bad - she's just leaving a spot here and there. She's also peeing ALOT more than usual and it has a strong odor- is this normal? I feel so bad for her as it's obvious she is feeling miserable (clingy, tired, whiny) - is there anything I can do to make this all more comfortable for her?
I just want to know what I can expect for the next few weeks and what I can do to make her comfortable. It was never my intention to have her go into heat in the first place hence the surgery appointment!

My 5 year old orange tabby was stolen and taken to a animal pound 150 blocks away!!!! By the time I found out what happened to him he had been sent to a petsmart and adopted.!! It's going on 2 1/2 weeks without my beloved cat and seem to have lost hope of getting him back! The shelter is saying that it's a binding contract and will not help me get him back!! The animal pound is still the responsible for the cat and not petsmart (what petsmart informed me) Does anyone know of anything I can still do?!?!?!?! my family and myself will do anything to get him back!!!!

I have 5 1/2 acres of land with a party barn. These cats that come around sleep in the barn and at nights attempt to tip my trash over. I don't want to shoot them, I feel to bad killing the cats, but If i could catch them with a trap and drive them away, how and what kinds of traps do you think will work. I already killed one stary, and i felt to bad to do it again, so killing is out of the question.

I am bringing a VERY,VERY scared dog home tomorrow that i adopted from the animal shelter,she's a 3 year old jack russell terrier. she was SEVERLY abused.
well i have four other dogs (a pomeranian/chihuahua mix, a poodle, a rottweiler/german shepherd mix and a labrador retriever border collie.) well i want to know
how i should introduce them to eachother?
I know it's hard to rehabilitate a scared dogmy rottie/german shepherd mix was badly abused to he had gasoline poured on him and he had third degree burns
because two stupid kids decided to light him on fire.
My pom/chi mix was also badly abused they would throw her down steps,beat her etc. i know how to work with scared dogs.
i work at my local Animal shelter with the scared dogs, so i know how to handle that. Everyone at the shelter told me it would be best for me to take her home
because i know how to handle scared dogs... im just asking how to introduce them?

Why has it happened?

Some friends of ours decided to take their dogs along with them to our home, which we were excited about at first. But one of their dogs really got violent and went for our dog. I didnt think too much of it at first, but I see now two days later she has a small puncture like hole on the side of her face, just below her mouth. Its not too big, or very deep but it has some puss coming out of it so we're keeping it clean.
Is this something we should go to the vet for do you think? All our dogs have had their rabies vaccines so Im not afraid of that. Vet trip or are we worrying too much?

Well, its the third week in with Ringworm on my 7 wk. old Persian Kittens. its spreading, not getting better. I used the tresaderm, dermazole,lotrimin,miconazole,,iodine.. you name it. I ordered a lyme dip which is coming. It's all over their faces. spots on back and under bellies.. feet, Its terrible. I'm calling the vet today to get oral treatments if she'll prescribe them. Knock on wood I havent got it yet. But I'm sure I will. Nothing is working. Are you guys sure this goes away? I'm starting to have doubts. I'll keep working on it,, but gosh its frustrating. Its important to play with them and all at this age.. I am afraid to touch them..But I do anyway.. I cant help it..

It is sort of almost feral or just used to living outdoors. My 80+ yr old neighbor has been feeding it outside for years (she already has 2 cats and a dog inside). I took it home and gave it a bath (it bit my hand so bad that I had to get antibiotics). It has since let me brush it. I kept it inside for a couple of weeks after the bite and took it in one other time for a week, but it is anti-social with my other cats and the last time it pooed twice on my kitchen table (nasty). It meows a lot, but when you get close it runs slightly out of reach. Accepts food if you are not close enough to catch her. She meows a lot indoors or out. Not sure why. My other neighbor feeds her sometimes too.I give her dry food and water outdoors now and the other neighbor gives her moist food, like the 80 year old neighbor does.
