I was with my mum and cousin at my cousins house. My mum and my cousin (taryn) went out to the post office and I stayed in. The door must have swung open while they were in the shop so i went after them i realized the dog had shot across the road and barking at another dog through the gate. I went and got my mum and taryn out of the shop. Taryn start shouting CHARLIE and i turned around and started walking across the kurb it narrowly missed a car but the next one hit him full on we were all screaming it was so scary. The dog jumped straight up and ran into the house with only a scratch on its cheek. But it normally sits on the sofa and its back legs are shuffling and it ws hard for him to get onto the sofa also it usually legs it up the stairs but it took him about a minute to get up them. Im really worried and vets here. By the way the number plate off the car was halfway down the street.

This may seem like a stupid question to some of the yahoo radicals out there. I'm curious, what qualifies a person as a "back yard breeder?" Does having one litter of pups qualify you as a byb?

Don't be scared to voice your opinion...yeah right, as if you wouldn't.

I've had this cat since July. He was given to us. But we know little about him. I don't know how old he is or what breed he is. Here are two pictures of him:

Also, have they had all their shots, etc...

I've never gotten an animal from a shelter so I could use some schooling on the process.
Just wanting to know what Im getting into before I do anything.

Because my dog always pees or poos in the training pad. (pad where dogs pee).
But it sort of smells and my friends' dogs are trained to scratch the door. I want to know how to.

Ok, please don't tell me I am lazy.

I want to know if I can teach my 3 year old beagle to pe e in the bathtub (if so, how can I?) under special circumstances:

1.i have a bad fever, and my ears hurt

2.it is freezing and snowing outside and i just took him for a spin around the block, and when i walked past the spot he first urinated it was near frozen.

3. i live on upper floor of a walk-up building in a high density urban city.

4. i won't be walking to the park because of bad weather so he will have to be on pavement the whole time anyway.

how can i teach my dog how to do this and only resort to this under these circumstances because it is gross and weird?

I have an 16 mo. old male neutered YorkiePoo, with 2 seperate issues.
1. We have a finished basement and ANY time he is down there,he will mark the carpet. He never ever goes potty upstairs and always goes to the door when he needs to go out. We have just stopped allowing him down there. I would like to let him down there, but don't see how to stop his marking.
2. Also, we went to my sister's house (she has a male dog) and the first thing my dog did was went to the dining room table and marked the leg of the table! Why did he do this inside?....and how can we prevent this at her house, or anywhere else indoors in the future? I am scared to take him anywhere else indoors because I don't want him peeing!! Please offer any rational advice.
Thank you!
P.S. I also have a 9 yr. old spayed female Shihtzu who we've had since she was a baby. My Yorkie Poo is very submissive to her, as she let it be known when we got him that she was Queen Bee. (didn't know if this had anything do with it)

I think my cat MAY have some super abilities. I have been watching her and it SEEMS as though she MAY be using the FORCE. I think the force is with her. She is exhibiting signs of being MORE than just an ordinary house cat. Now, do you think this is possible and if so, how should I act around her?

I haven't gotten a kitten nailcutter and her claws are way too long and I'm pretty desperate. I was thinking about cutting them with my nailcutter but I wanted to know if it's okay first.

I am getting a new kitten, but I do have to go to work a few hours a day (i have a VERY flexible schedule), longer on Fri/Sat. How long can my kitten be alone in the house, or how often should I go check up on her? I'd be gone about 5 hrs per day Tues/Wed/Thurs, and on Fri & Sat when I have to be gone longer, my sister who lives with me will be home in the evening....I just don't want my kitten to get too lonely! Any suggestions?

Would you consider this to be a 'mass producer'? Would you ever buy a dog from a place like this? Is anyone else getting that "puppy mill" vibe?

does anyone else find it terrible how many people get rabbits as pets for easter or becuase they think they are cute and cuddly? Rabbits are seeming more and more like a throw away pet. Most people don't even know about breeds or basic upkeep. I think rabbits are great pets but the reality is that most do not like to be cuddled or bathed or anything else. When are pet stores going to be accountable for educating people before they sell these animals?

Should my 8lb dog still take Frontline and Heartgard even in the Chicago winter months? I live in the middle of the downtown city so he is rarely in a grassy area. Can we stop the meds until winter has ended. If so, when would we start up again?

So, I adopted a black lab from a nearby animal shelter a little over a month ago and come to find out when I went in to her looked at to be spayed a week ago, she is pregnant. I called the animal shelter and they said that she must have gotten pregnant before they had her. I have talked to the vet and they gave me a sheet with information, and I have already gotten her one of those wooden type things so she can begin to nest, but I still need more information, as much as I can get. I have 3 other dogs but I have never had a dog thats had puppies, I have many other people saying they are willing to help, but any tips or websites anyone knows of would be a huge help for me! The vet sayd she is due in about 20 days, she is guessed to be about 9 months old so she is very young. any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
