My boyfriend and I adopted a lab when he was 3 months old (he's now almost 1yr.old) and being the animal lover I am, I don't really understand why I haven't made some kind of connection. I don't think its normal, people are supposed to love there dogs. As embarrassing as it is I'm not even sure I would miss him if he wasnt here. I want to love him, my boyfriend loves him but I just dont its more of a tolerence. Does any one have a suggestion on how to turn this relationship around?

I just adopted a girl pitbull from the local animal shelter. She is 3-4 months of age and weighs in at 26 lbs, although she hardly looks it, she is so short and teeny weeny still. I know she's got growth packed away in that little puppy body, just curious what a rough estimate would be. I expect she won't be much more than 50 lbs full grown, because she's a girl and she can't be taller than 18 inches right now. What do you think??

Ever since i placed a flea collar on him, hes been acting really calm. But, it could be that he went out today and almost ran away. Hes an indoor cat, but we let him out to have fun once in a while. He almos ran away till we forced him back in. So.. why is he so calm...

I recently bought a miniature American Eskimo puppy, and the previous owner gave me an application for permanent registration. While filling it out, I realized it has a section on the parents being Purple Ribbon bred, which is gibberish to me, seeing as this is the first non-pound dog I've ever owned. In front of both the dam and sire's names is 'PR', though, does that stand for Purple Ribbon?

Thanks for your help, I'm such a newb at this. :)

I recently was watching Animal Precinct or something similar on Animal Planet and the ASPCA was given a call that there had been a puppy that was hit by a car. When they got there, there was a man trying to bandage her leg, which was the only thing that was hit. They talked with him a bit, and the man said that he was the puppy's owner couldn't pay for the vet bills anymore. The ASPCA did the right thing by taking the puppy out of his custody, but the man was heartbroken. He hesitated, but knew it was best for his puppy. The allowed him to say goodbye, and he put her in the van, he was tearing a bit and the puppy very was affectionate toward the man and licked his face goodbye. After the cage door was shut and the van door was about to close, he says, "Don't forget, I love you." And he slowly walked away and watched the van drive away. This made me cry so hard. Any thoughts on this?

I know that there are some naturally sinking driftwood. My question is if a piece of driftwood floats, will it eventually sink if it gets waterlogged? And how long should I expect a 12-15" piece to take to sink?

Is it common for cats to stop eating and drinking and become lathargic when you bring a new cat in house? I am a little concerned.

My cat just started vomitting today. It's very little and only watery but she vomits at least twice an hour. She is still walking around like normal and wants food (I took away her dry cat food today, thinking maybe its making her ill). No real listlessness or anything. She appears clear-eyed and still has her appetitite.

I'm calling the vet tomorrow. Anyone know what it can be?

Every day my Corgi eats about a cup of kibble, 2 T of peanut butter, 1/4 cup of yogurt and a couple of cubes of cheese that I put in her Kong. Everything but the kibble is of course low fat or fat free. Do you think this is suitable? She seems to be a very healthy...not overweight dog. Also, are there any fruits or veggies besides grapes and raisins that dogs can't have?

People who want dangerous breeds of dogs like Pit Bulls and Rotweilers, etc. should be required to pay special license fees and meet specified containment requirements for the dogs.
