I believe she is sick because she ate "human food" that my daughter "accidentaly" dropped on the floor, but she has been sick going on 5 days. I really don't want to encurr an outragiously high vet bill if I can take care if her at home. Of course I will take her if she doesn't get any better.

I've learned that different breeds take on different behaviors. How about mixed breeds? Once a I had a retriever/chow-chow mixed in with others (Hienz-57 of a dog) he loved us (owners) but like a Chow hated strangers and was very protective. Yet he was pretty friendly around puppies, kittens, and other small animals. I wonder is mixed breeds can adapt also to any envirmoent and up-bringing.Unlike some pure breeds

I recently discovered that my 2 yr old chihuahua is blind or partially blind, she does'nt blink when you wave your hand in front of her eyes she only blinks when you touch her eye lashes. She started bumping into stuff and would not jump up into the car. What would cause this in such a young dog?he has had all her shots and gets plenty of good quality food to eat HELP! I love her to death, she is mu FUR CHILD! No I have not taken her to the vet yet, she's not in any pain that I can tell.

ok, well the past 2 days my dog has gotten into EVERYTHING and eatin like a goat. on saturday night, i had some buffalo wings, i left them in the cardboard box, and he ate the chicken wing bones. then that same night, my mom was doing laundry and she left my clothes foldeded on my bed, well them my dog jumped up and snached my expensive underwear, and ate them. THEN just this morning, i heard that he was chewing on something, so i looked and somehow, he got to my bra (no it wasnt on me, i had another one on)anywho, he ate some of the underwire and a srap, and im really hoping that it doesnt hurt him. im thinking he's just bored, but i leave toys for him to bite and chew on when he's in my room in the mornings, while im still sleeping. what can i do for him to STOP this. i found him in October and he was doing good, but now he's starting this back up again. he's about 2 to 3 yrs old. please help me i dont know what to do, but i get SO ANGRY with him. PLEASE HELP ME!! THANKS, GOD BLESS!

I was holding my 9 wk old pom puppy on my lap. He started squirming and managed to spin out of my hands and land on his side. Do you think this can produce a serious injury? He fell on his side but just got up quickly and moved on. After a while, I played fetch with him. After a while, he got tired and took a nap --he is always taking naps as all puppies do. He just woke up from his nap and was whining a little. He stopped as soon as I started to play with him again. I am wondering if I need to take him to the emergency room or if I should wait and see if he develops serious symptoms...

I was wondering, some people say all pups are born with worms, but how could they if the mother doesn't have them? Is it only bad breeders that have pups like that?

I have an 8 month old maltipoo who has gotten into his head he should go to the bathroom on my livingroom carpet!! He was totally clean and always went outside until a week or two ago ... OK, we live in Maine, and it's cold, but so far he has always done his business outside .... We walk him in the mornings, frequently during the day, last thing at night .. he sleeps in the livingroom, and nearly every morning now for the past week we find "surprises" on the carpet! What do we do? I clean the carpet, but suppose he can still smell where he went ... any suggestions other than getting rid of the carpet and/or the dog? Crate him at night? What? This is becoming intolerable ...

Mine, erm... Rotties. Labradoodle's(and any doodle or poo breed) and teacups are NOT breeds, so don't say them.

My dog had a tumor removed from his leg on 1/4/07. the vet said the stitches needed to stay in for 21 days. It has now been 18 days and I won't be able to take him to the vet for another week or week and a half, if I can't take him in tomorrow. So, can I take them out myself? The dog has already removed 3 himself and the incision looks good. If it is ok to remove them, how do I do it? Just snip, pull and clean? (After I've sterilized my instruments, of course). Thanks for your help!

My dog is a 3 year old female cross between a german shepard and a husky, she has a very lovely gentle temperament, loves children. Recently when we have taken her to the park she has attacked other dogs. There hasn't been any growling or barking before hand, she has just started fighting with them. She is stopping and leaving when I say but I don't like having to walk around with her on the lead all the time. My partner said it might be because she was attacked by a german shepard recently, if that is the reason how can i get her back to her old friendly self. When she is with the neighbours dog, who they have know since puppies she is fine. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
