I want to get a maltese and I read they are hard to house break, does that mean I can't get one to use a doggy litter box?

My dog woke up yesterday with yellow eye bugers & was acting a little sluggish (not quite himself) & now the left side of his neck, right under the jawline is very swollen (almost baseball size) and is just laying around & wont eat. I called & made an appointment at the vet for tommorrow, but i am very worried. Could it just be an infection needing antibiotics or could it be a gland issue, tumor? then i started thinking that we had KFC chicken sat night, could he have gotten ahold of a bone? he is also coughing & weezing a little. im afraid he wont last till tommorrow. we have no emergency vet within several hours from here. please help...

I am getting ready to adopt a greyhound. I cannot find anywhere the recommended height for the raised food dishes that they need. Can anyone tell me what they use or what the recommended height is?

I have found some that are 10" and some as big as 19" high. I just thought 10" sounded too short. Any advice? Thanks a bunch!

a couple of days ago i went outside and found my dog with his foot extremely swollen and his fur was all black as if stained with coal.I gave him a pill to take away the pain and swelling, but it only worked temporarily.I can't take him to the vet because he is very very hiper and rebellious. I was surprised he even let me take him a bath.Anyways, today i came home from school and was looking for my dog.I turned around to this little closet that we have outside and saw big puddles of blood.I was crying and screaming like crazy.he didnt want to come out of that closet, but when he came out, i saw his foot was all covered in blood.The bleeding stopped after a couple a minutes, but he had already lost a lot of blood. He was also vomiting everything i would give him. after about an hour, i gave him dog food and lots of water and he finally kept it in. About 15 mins. ago, i went outside and he got up and started bleeding again. Im desperate!! what should i do?!?! plz help!!!!!!!!!

You picked up your 8 week old puppy from her parents on Sunday and on Sunday she is diagnosed with Parvo. She is given a 50/50 chance. You called the people you bought her from and the former owners have informed you that they had to put the entire litter down as they all contracted it as well (though they had recieved their shots). She has refunded your money. What do you do? Would you put the puppy down or go for recovery?

My dog had a little of 7 puppies 8 days ago. I am quite worried about whether she has enought milk for 7 or not? Puppies are strong and grows fast, they don't cry a lot but sure sleep a lot.

We take him out at around 11 pm every night, so we are not going to bed too early. I feel bad crating him at night if we crate him during the day too. He whimpers and whines until we take him out, disrupting our sleep. It's been 2 weeks with 4 hours of sleep per night, and i am starting to get sick. I can't take it! What do I do?

My sister had her dog out at a horse farm and the dog got sprayed by a skunk. My sister brought the dog home and gave it a bath in tomato juice but it didn’t help. What can we do to get rid of the smell?

My German Shepherds has been chewing his back paws. But he never has done that before. About a month ago he was favoring a back foot but when I looked in it there wasn't anything stuck and we just thought he might of sprained it because he was fine a couple days later.

Recently he began aggressivly chewing his back paw. When I looked inside it was red, fairly oozy and swollen. I treated him for infection and also tested for a rash. I have him on a antibacterial pill and an antibiotic ointment/bactine on his actual foot. It seemed to get better but saturday it spread to his other backfoot and today he won't put pressure on it.

I also have both feet wrapped so he can't chew them. I have an E-collar but he can still get to his feet with it on. The paws are slightly swollen and red on the inside. There isn't discharge. There also aren't any puncture points.

Any ideas what this could be from?

I breed Golden Retrievers and each litter we have a "theme" for AKC names to help our families name their new babies...our litter is due 6/19/07. This helps keep track of the litters and makes naming their pups fun. The last litter was Valentine's day Last year so of course that was the theme...just need some ideas. Thanks.
