It's been a while since I've been in there. If they don't are there any other stores besides ordering online? I'm not asking for anything fancy.
P.S. Tell me what you think of my new puppy. The 8 week chihuahua named Pancho.

My Maltipoo is about 1 year old. Yesterday she went to the vet an d was given all her yearly shots. The day before that she was groomed for the first time in a long time. Today I notice she keeps shaking her head and rubbing at her ears. When I looked in her ears I noticed they are full of a crumbly wax. She has never had this in her ears before and there is alot of it. Is she having some type of bad reaction to her dog shots or could she have an ear infection from the dog groomers? I have included a pic. Do I need to take her to the vet tonight? She seems spunky still she just keeps shaking her head and rubbing her ears. I can tell it is bothering her.

The link below will show you a pic I just took of her ear. Sorry I could not figure out how to put in into the post.

I seen one i like but im not sure. I told her to get in at petco she can make a full circle, but when she laided down her bottom her feet touch the front of the cage even when sitting all the way n the back. When I asked her to sit when she raises her head it touches a little. How can I make sure to get the right size?

Since I have a runaway dog, does anyone know how much it costs for either the microchip or the invisible fence? I've recieved lots of great answers to my recent question about how to keep her from running away everytime a door is left open. Thanks to everyone who answered that question also.

He's a very sensitive dog (male) and has absolutely no instinct for chasing a ball. When I've tried to teach him he just gets really upset, sits down and looks like I'm telling him off even though I'm not. I really want to train him to chase a ball though to give him more exercise. I've tried in the garden as well as the park, and with rewards, but nothing I've tried seems to work!

I've heard great things concerning both dogs but I don't know which would fit in with my family and situation the best. I don't live in the greatest part of town and a big guard dog (that can protect both property and its owner) I can count on would make me feel more comfortable.

I'm leaning more towards the Neapolitan Mastiff because of its size and looks (which in itself might be a deterrent), but the ability of guarding home and owner while simultaneously being a good family dog with a dependable temperament means a lot more to me--and since I've never owned either, I really don't know which would be a better pick.

Any advice?

I have a 5-yr old Golden Retriever with it. We are getting a consultant to talk to about possible treatments, but I wish to know a little more about the condition.

How long do dogs survive from the time of a recurrance?
Is Fibromatosis fatal?
Is radiation or chemo effective against Fibromatosis?
If excision alone by local vets is ineffective and recurrance occurs, is it worth it to get a "better" vet to do more intense surgery followed by radiation, or should we leave the growth as is?

My Golden Retriever shows no signs of pain, and (besides Fibromatosis) is in very good health. We love her very much and are willing to spend the money on radiation or chemotherapy, but we still don't know whether or not it is worth it.

Thank you in advance for your help.

My dog was bitten by a cat on Saturday and we took him to the vets. He was prescribed anti-botics for five days and given a pain relief injection. He is still limping badly and the leg is still swollen. He is eating well and drinking, going to the tooilet etc as normal, but the wound doesn't seem to be healing yet, should i give it more time (as it's only been 3 days) or take him back to the vet?

My boyfriends pitbull just had puppies and they are so cute.. Well she had a liter of 13 and now she only have five left. Me and my boyfriend took two of the puppies that we wanted and we are feeding them with similac baby formula in bottles so they can get nutrition..the other puppies are dying because the mother is smothering them..she lays on top of them and all you can hear is the puppies squealing and its very hot outside but we can't bring them in the house. Do any one have any suggestions on what we can do to save the five remaining puppies..and do you think that bottle feeding our two puppies will help build their strength? They are only 2 days old, but if we didn't take the two away she was going to kill them by smothering

My beloved Shasta has a Stage 4 spinal Injury (stage 5 is paralyzed). Chiropractor cannot help her Vet says she needs a neurospecialist and the specialist says she has a 50/50 chance surgery will make her any better. Best case she will always have limitations in her activities

She is in pain and on meds for the pain but they make her nauseous and groggy. She spends most of her day in her bed and is still very uncomfortable.

Surgery will be $4500 + and no assurance of life quality improving, she could end up paralyzed anyway. The Specialist is 5 hours away and will need her to followup 2 or 3 times requiring a long winding car ride after surgery.

My only other choice is to do the alternative which makes me ill but I need to think of her.

I don't need a lot of callous comments If all you are going to say is shoot it don't waste your time or mine.
I am looking for some honest caring opinions from Animal lovers.
I am struggling with this and need some feedback HELP

My year old shepard mix dog has been throwing up since 4pm yesterday. He is throwing up white and clear bile... and I am not sure what to do. The vet is really my last resort because he gets very nervous and a little aggressive toward the vet when we go.

Last night he was throwing up every hour or so. Sometimes nothing would come out. I'd say he only threw SOMETHING up 5 times last night but he was gagging. And he has thrown up maybe 4 times today. He seems to start coughing/gagging when he gets worked up or barks...

Help PLEASE!
