Anyways how long before it starts to sing? I know he can make noises because he was screaming when I put him into the cage from the box? Any help or suggestions on how to get him to be vocal?

Is there any common land in Scotland as there is in the New Forest?
I currently turn out a 'wild' pony in the Forest, I can do this due to having common right attatched to my property .
I am thinking of moving to Scotland in the future, and would love to beable to turn my pony out there...is this possible at all, or would I have to keep her in a field?

I think he's wonderful, with amazing results. If you don't know who i mean watch BBC3 at 6pm. He'll cure all your dogs problems. Calm assertive energy - it's all you need. Long live Cesar....

I've always had large dogs and we let them off leash at dog beaches etc. But I saw some pretty awful fights and some small dogs hurt. Now we have two little dogs, one is verging on tiny, and I just don't think it's safe. Especially as one of my dogs is quite dominant and while he wouldn't attack he wouldn't roll over. What do you think?

It was snow storming here like crazy the other nite, so I came in and let my dog out of the garage to go on a pee run and I didnt leash him because it was late and I figured he would like to pee and get in the house. Well, he vanished. The wind was blowing 30 miles per hour. Snow was falling and the dog split. I yelled for 3 hrs until I gave up finding him and went to bed thinking he died in the snow storm. NOT. He headed to the neigbors house and they let him in. He was gone all nite, then when I got up in the AM, they let him into the garage and put a blanket on top of his straw mound. He was sleeping in because when I went out that morning to feed him, he didnt even bother to get up for his food. He was all stretched out in the straw. Should I tell them to bring my dog home the next time, or am I being pathetic? No I am not an abusive dog owner. We live in rural america with outdoor dogs unless the weather is terrible, then they sleep in the house or the barn or the garage

Is it harmful for a dog to ingest charcoal? We just realized our dog (4 month old Miniature Daschund puppy "weenie dog") ate almost an entire brick of charcoal. I think it is the self-starting kind, but am not sure. We are unable to contact a veterinarian right now because it is after midnight. She seems fine right now, but I am scared it is going to kill her! I have done a search online and haven't had much luck finding anything helpful. PLEASE HELP! Thanks!

I went to my local Home Depot and found myself some Play Sand, but I ended up not liking the color or the amount of cleaning it needed. I have heard that Silica Sand is much lighter and nicer to deal with for freshwater aquariums, and it won't affect the water chemistry much if at all. There is just one problem, I can't find it anywhere! Does it go under any other names?

What's better, or what are the pros and cons of each female and male. I heard that males tend to go away and not return for days.

Just curious to all the pigeon people. If I set up a flock of pigeons, would they mate and bring home feral pigeons?

This seems to be the most frequently asked question and I have been able to find a lot of information but not quite enough. I have a female Platy who is mostly orange with black fins. I'm not sure whether or not she's preggo. Her tummy is slightly swollen and looks like it has turned slightly silver translucent...but not quite (more silver than anything). Is there anyone that can show me a picture of a preggo platty? She doesn't seem to have a gavid spot and i would love to have fry. But i just can't tell for sure....please help.

If you could create (and enforce) ANY dog related law, what would it be? Why would you choose this law? What would this law prevent/what problem would this law solve? What would be the requirements of this law? Why would this law be hard to reinforce?

I mean laws such as mandatory spay/neuter for pet quality dogs...having to obtain a breeding license before being allowed to breed dogs...having to obtain a dog owning license before being able to own dogs...having to prove you can financially support a dog before buying one...you get the point.

Be creative! It can be any law, no matter how crazy or impossible it sounds. What law do YOU think would help solve the dog related problems that our society sees on a daily basis (abuse, neglect, dog attacks, irresponsible breeding)?

I've had my spayed cat for over a year(since she was 4 months old. This is her second Christmas.) Anyway lately she's been really excited! Jumping everywhere, attacking my hands, running under furniture and the tree, knocking over Christmas decoration stuff. Normally she wouldn't do that. So what would this mean? I find it funny and cute and I don't get after her because she's not a dog so she won't understand what's wrong and what's right.

Ok,

It's not really an ask question.

But I kind of get annoyed when everyone calls the fighting fish a Chinese or Cambodian.

It has a reason why it's called a "Siamese Fighting Fish" because it comes from Siam a.k.a Thailand.

Okies ^__^ Needed to get that out my head.

At least it seems that way... we have a 10 week old puppy and he does it while we're playing with him... but we've never "taught" him to..

I rescued 2 kittens from a farm a couple of months ago and have fallen in love. They are the sweetest brothers...playing and making us laugh all the time. They are going to be neutered on Thursday. I've heard its not such a big deal, but I am nervous that when they come home they will be different. I like how crazy they can be sometimes. I know its important that the pet population is controlled, but I still feel bad doing this to them. Is it normal for me to feel so awful?? I just want them to still be happy and loving...
