I want a dog that has short soft hair, but I have allergies. I want a small dog 5-20 lbs that wont give me an allergic reaction. The dog also must be very cute and playful. What dog should I get?

We are going to pick up our new kitten tomorrow night and it turns out that there are still three remaining. Will it be better to take a pair, as opposed to having just the one? What are the benefits and pitfalls of having two kittens instead of having one one it's own? Thanks

I have a labradoodle (11 months old) that I can't keep free of roundworms. He's had 3 treatment rounds, I've had his backside shaved, and I clean the yard almost daily to keep it free of infected feces. But they still come back a few weeks after treatment. Is there a natural herb that can be added to his diet to keep him roundworm free? He's been to the vet's twice for the worms, has been treated three times (multiple treatments to each round of treatment). I've done everything the vet has suggested, yet they still come back. Anyone have a solution?

OK, if you have a litter of pups, are you reponsible enough to work with those pups when it comes to basic obedience? Like being on a lead (getting them used to one, a kennel lead) or teaching them not to jump on everyone as well?

Are people aware that feeding a bunch of "people" food, especially turkey and ham can lead to a life threatening condition in their dogs???????
Please use caution when feeding your dogs leftovers! (cats too). Vets see a great increase in this condition following Thanksgiving and Christmas!!!!!!!!!
Remember...your dog does not know it is a holiday and is NOT missing out!!!!!

I took my dog for a simple eyelid procedure. I received a phone call that afternoon from the vet saying everything went fine but he would like to keep the dog overnight for monitoring so the dog would not paw stitches. The vet informed me the next morning that the dog had hung itself while trying to get out of its holding area. Collar on the top of the fence. In other words, the dog was never watched and died a horriffic death.

She is a 14 pound shih-tzu poodle mix, usually no issues, but the last two days she really has to strain to poo and it is on the hard side.

Why every year despite campaigns to stop it, do dummys buy dogs for Christmas presents.
The pain, suffering and cruelty they cause as a result of their thoughtlessness is a disgrace.

Considering the inhumane way the animals that end up on the dinner menu are raised and slaughtered, do animal lovers eat the meat from these unfortunate creatures?

The mother cat is a outdoor and indoor cat she was a stray that I started feeding a few months ago and did not know she was pregnant she had her kittens in my home and now that the kittens are two weeks old tomorrow, I noticed when I cleaned out the box that they had fleas or ticks I do not know which one but when I put flea and tick stuff on them it killed them right on the spot. Should I be doing this with the kittens being so young? If not what should I do?

I've had my 55gal setup for about 6 months now. For the last 2 weeks or so, I had severe ammonia problems that I could not get under control, after daily water changes, using supplements, etc. So I decided to start from scratch and empty everything and start over. I cleaned out the filter, emptied all the water, removed all the decorations, etc. (2 days ago) All of the chemical levels are now normal and I even added a 2nd bio-wheel filter to the tank and yet my water is staying somewhat cloudy! Can anyone help with what the problem may be? I figured the tank might have to go through the cycle again, but all of the levels are fine, so I dont know if it is or not. I've even used a water clarifier and nothing seems to be helping. Any other ideas or help, please?

Curious and thinking about trying some, I hate horses -- but then again I might not be able to stomach eating one anyway. Ugly messy things!

I found other questions but no one seems to answer SERIOUSLY.
