Pets - 24 December 2007

I have two puppies they are both 8weeks old (siblings).
They tend to pee in the kennel when I am out . So with that said, they are stinky and sticky. The female is black so you don't see it but the male is white and turns yellow when they pee in the kennel. Yesterday I gave them both a bath and they are already all peed up and yellow. I wiped them with a wet paper towel but that did not help.

Today I am going to pet smart to buy some doggy wipes. I hope they help.
I know that I can not give them a bath more than once a week because of the protective layer on the coat and because it can cause their skin to get dry, which is not healthy for them.. Their vet said not to bath them too much and that they should be bathed every 4-6 weeks or once a month.

What else can I do? Does anyone have any advice and tips for me?

Thank you so much in advance.

I just got my EBD and he is adorable, however i see that he and my shih tzu are fighting (not a lot just a little bit). Any ideas on how to make them get along? Also i have trained my shihtzu to go outside in the balcony, how can i make it work so maybe they can go outside together? Also is it normal for the EBD to have really soft stool? Thanks in advance!! And Happy Holidays!

Please choose which would be the best bet for a family with young children.

Also, please share your reasons behind your choice, as well as any cons.

Thanks in advance, and happy holidays!!!

decide which pups in your litter are show quality and which ones are pet quality? I know that if they are born with disqualifying faults they are sold as pets, how can you tell which ones are going to have those qualities when they get older? For example, if a breed standard says that a dog is to be between 10 - 11 inches at the withers, how do you know that this particular pup will not be smaller or larger? Is it a guarantee that they would be able to place well?

my little girls dog has been hospitalized for 10 days, she was very very ill, she almost died. Today she is being released and the vet said she will permanently need to be on a gastro diet. I am wondering if I can cut the cost of the food by making it at home or finding a cheaper brand. I have 3 other dogs, and it would be easier to switch them all to the new food than try to separate them all at meal times.

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the forum,
Trolls were struggling with proper decorum,

Halters were hung by stalls with care,
in hopes that snow soon would be there.

Ponies in blankets and owners in mittens
Some of which were playing with kittens

When outside the barn arose such a din
everyone ran from the barn as ponies ran in

Their breathes came in gasps , eyes wide with fright,
each owner dashed from the barn ready to fight,
Whaever it was that had caused our babies to scare
looking around , we found no one was there.

Then from above we heard this call
On Slewer , On Stecth , On Razzmyass , On Harvey , On Bailey , On Blue Sage , On Oly , On Baby Doll

It was Santa! and inlew of the deer ,
he was pulling his sleigh with horses & mules of long ear.

We stood in wonder as he began to call
Presents abound for one and all!

To B_N_B he threw a coat rack made of old shoes
Mulereiner got a Pirate saddle for trail clss of course
You

OK im research this subject heavy for 6 months on and off. Bottom line Dogs and Humans are different...a Dog stomach acid is allot strong than human, hmmm wonder why they eat raw dead animals in the wild and are perfectly fine. BUt yes they are wild they a big chance of getting disease from a bite but not from eating meat the dog digestive system moves so fast along with the strong stomach acid there is no way for bacteria or disease to spread. it kills it instantly. Now you wonder why when u take ur dog to vet they may say its the food thats made them sick (Dog Food) of course it is...we don't eat dog food do we? no...you know whats really in dog food? do you know if the vet that ok are even reputable Vets...Dog food = A diet that contains poor-quality meats, additives, and other ingredients dogs should not ingest.. so my question is why do u believe raw diet is bad for dogs? now u heard this...and feel free my friends Google "Barf's Diet", Let me know what u think, of what u read!

I have 2 cats and 2 litter boxes in my place...

The one cat pees and everything is fine. the other cat pees and it just turns the litter dark. So when i go to scoop it up nothing happens.

Any clue as to why my one cat's pee doesn't clump. Same diet, same litter?
