please help me, she has a few fleas which i am treating with revolution but she already had a few bumps by that time and shes always scratching all around her neck. she is losing a lot of hair in that area and lots of red bumps are there, literally around her entire neck. what kind of medicine or treatment should i use,
i have already changed her food so it's not food allergy like the vet told me... i don't want to spend useless money on a vet visit for her to tell me the same thing again....
any ideas......
thanks.....

My dog runs away every chance he gets. He is always happy to see us when we find him, but gets out again. We have always found him, until today. He's been gone for 14 hours and it is cold tonight. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next.
We have reported him to the police and animal control. He unfortunately lost his name tag that last time he got out and I have not replaced it yet ( it was yesterday). But his rabies tag is still on his collar.
We have gone out driving and walking on and off all day.

Before you ask, my yard is fenced and he learned to climb the fence. I have tied him in the yard, he has broken the rope. I need to get chain to use, but it is costly - also I am afraid he will hurt himself.
At wits end- any suggestions?

Why do so many people continue to insist on hating certain animals rather than educting themselves and fighting the real villans in this world. Is it just easier to hate a dog than it is to actually come up with ways to change the people on the other side of the leash. I guess it is... but where is the gratification in that. Does it make anyone feel better to have a breed of dog irradicated rather than to educate and take a stand against cruelty? Does it really make anyone feel intellegent to be led around by the media rather than dig for the truth? Isn't there times when the harder road is more gratifying than the well worn path?
I was just working on my BSL page and thought that I should share my thoughts and questions with you (mostly) good people as well.

He is about 7-8 years old. He is a sweet dog it just gets so annoying that he doesn't eat his food(well sometimes he does, and this dog food is made for senior dogs so I would really like him to eat it) he always trys to eat the cat food, and when i yell at him, he looks at me and keeps doing it! I wouldn't mind him eating the cats food, but its making him gain weight and i dont want him to be obese. can anyone help me please!!!

My guinea pig seems to prefer going to the bathroom in his hideout... Should I remove the hideout while potty training him to use the litter box?

So anyways, my sister has a stupid hamster and it was missing from it's cage when I came home. I noticed my dog was foaming from the mouth, there was vomit on the carpet, and he can't stay awake. He had all of his shots so it can't be rabies. I found the hamster later and it was all wet and freaked. What do you think happened, do you think my dog is sick? Should I take him to the doctor?

I have read mixed things about them being all okay together. Will having 4 or so in my 29 gallon work out?

I have a male doberman that is two. He is not an aggressive dog, but his behavior is starting to worry me. He has been acting out toward my 2 year old son. My son can't even get down off of the couch to go play because my dog will lick him in the face uncontrollably. My son will crouch down on the floor to try to protect his face and so my dog will put his paw on top of him and gently paw at his back, stomach, legs, and diaper area. He has also started barking at my son. He has NEVER acted like this before towards any of the kids and it just started today. I don't know why he is acting like this. My husband said not to leave them alone together just incase, but I think he just needs to pay a little visit to the vet. Any advice is appreciated!!

My water pH is quite high (roughly 8.5-9.0), I have been considering a reverse osmosis unit to lower it. Would an r/o unit solve my problem? I would like to lower it for a future planted setup. I have read that plants would prefer a lower pH such as 7.0 - 7.5, do these numbers matter for plants? Thanks for the help!

We typically keep our seven-month-old puppy on a leash. Inside we've taught her come, sit, lay, stay, and roll over. Today, however, I was trying to throw something away in the trash can outside, and she managed to dart and pull away from me while ON THE LEASH. She ran across the street and would not come no matter how much I called. A little child frightened of dogs came along and was crying very hard. Finally I managed to call her back, but by then there was such a scene.
While it wasn't good that I let her get away by accident, but my question is HOW to get her back in a situation like that, so it won't happen again.
Thanks!
PS I never purposely have her without a leash. She managed to dart out at just the right time.

Today I saw a really cute pony. It looks similar to a belgian draft cross, with the blondish mane and tail. Its coat is a chestnut/brown color.
It looks almost like the horse on the far right in this picture.
