So I was at a dog pound and I saw a blind poodle there who I felt so bad for. I also saw so many kittens in a back room (ones very tiny) and mannnnnyyyyyy other cats who would be put down if not adopted. It made me want to cry. I mean, isnt it sad how those poor cats cant get a home? If I could, I would adopt them all, plus some dogs. My Mom wanted to adopt the poodle (maybe) but my Dad said it would be too much work. And that made me feel bad too.

I have a beautiful tortoise shell calico. I was brushing her tonight and noticed she had a lot of flea dirt. I thought it was odd since, as far as I knew, she didn't have fleas. I combed more and more and found more and more. Finally I started combing her hair apart to check if she did have fleas and saw one move. I parted some more hair just to make sure and I found another one, or could have been the same one I don't know. A couple years ago we had fleas pretty bad on all our animals. At the time it was 4 cats, 2 ferrets and 2 dogs and our main concern was the ferrets since they can die from anemia from flea bites. We used some flea spray for the vet and it really helped. There were no more fleas on the ferrets and we didn't find any on the cats either. Last night was the first time I have seen one since that time. Two of my cats are much easier to check because they are lighter colored so you can see fleas move through the fur. None of them have shown signs of extra itchiness.

I have a sirberian husky and whenever I'm taking him somewhere he won't stay still. He moves back and forth on the back seat, whimpers sometimes, barks sometimes as well. Anybody have any suggestions on how I can work with him to calm him down? Thanks!

I have a 5 year old Schipperke and the other day I noticed that 2 of her upper teeth were gone and there's a 3rd tooth hanging there. On the bottom she's missing a tooth and 3 of them are disended. She still eats like a pig, so it doesn't seem to bother her. But I'm worried that she'll be toothless. Could it be an iron/vitamin deficancy? I don't brush her teeth because she won't let me. She never did. She also has really bad breath. Any info would help.

All she wants to do is lay around and lick herself. Plus she is really cranky and won't socialize with anybody besides me. What can I do to make my baby feel better?

My boyfriend and I want to adopt a Savannah. He thinks they're manly and i think they're cute (perfect combination!). Instead of paying for a kitten I would like to adopt one who needs a good home, however I cannot find a "shelter". Any information would be great! I have always believed in adopting and want to continue but it seems to be impossible. Any suggestions about other "large" cat options?

Why are some of the dog owners on here so hostile? Ive seen a bunch of questions about health problems and I always see at least one answer that says something along the lines of "you shouldn't have a dog" "take them to vet you stupid" in a hostile manner. What does that bring? These people (yes some are pretty stupid! and yes some propably shouldnt have pets) at least cared enough to ask. The fact that CutiePatootie124579 said they shouldnt have a pet isnt going to make them bring it straight to the SPCA. In fact, its pointless to be that hostile. Don't you think being nice about it and encouraging the person by giving them options about where they can find health care for their pet, or telling them nicely that this animal does need to go to a vet and encourage them rather than insulting them would be more beneficial to the animal? I guess the question is (and its really aimed at the hostile people): Why are you being so hostile? It doesnt do anything but get you a thumbs-down!

My friend experience a tragedy last night with his dog. Here's the article:

An off-duty Omaha Police officer is under fire, accused of shooting a family's dog to death. The Nebraska Humane Society says Omaha Police Officer Jarvis Duncan shot a Husky named Layla three times in his front yard, after he says he was charged by the dog. The owners say the dog would never threaten anyone. "I stepped out of the garage and looked up the street and I could see my dog laying in the middle of the yard," says the dogs owner Eddie burns
"You're safe in your house. You wife is safe in her car. Where is the immediate threat," says Stephanie Brunt-Howard, Burns mother. Burns says he and his mother will continue to fight for what they believe is right, considering all legal options.

Here's the link to that article (and there is a video if you are interested): http://www.kmtv.com/Global/story.asp?

Ok so I have a basset hound who is about 4 years old now, I used to have a golden lab who was really smart and knew how to come/stay an avoid getting killed an could find his way back home.

My lab never did anythin stupid like eat grass or like put his nose in other dogs poop, go crazy when other dogs are around or run away into traffic.

My basset almost died several times hes run through an electric fence/w a collar on and gotten lost several times an was just sniffing around

He eats plants that aren't edible and tugs an pulls in the opposite direction we need to go does not know how to come or stay, doesn't eat when food is put out till hours later, he just doesn't remind me of my lab at all who was much more I dunno how to say this but a smart dog.

What can I do to make him smarter an is it true that bassets are really the dumbest dogs plz help
