it would be interesting to see how many people would keep dogs if the licence was brought back.

I got a chihuahua puppy about 2 weeks ago. He has had runny diarrhea for 4 days. My friend works at a vet and took him in today. She just called and said he has tapeworms. Although I do wash my hands alot, I am worried sick that I can get them. I also have a 2 year old daughter. Shes almost never alone with the dog (because of his size) but im also worried to death that he licked her in the face. How high is the possibility that one of us have tapeworms?

She says she loves her dog but when you ask her to feed it or water it she throws a fit. I have threatened to get rid of the dog and that has had no effect what so ever. Also, I turned it loose and the pound picked it up, so I told her that the only way she could get it back was if she promised to take care of it. Needless to say that was as empty of a promise as any one could get. Need advice quick before I loose my wits.

Let me start by saying that we tried to get her spayed but i live in a small town in rural ontario with only one vet and they said they wouldn't do it until she was atleast 8 months old.

My puppy is about 7 months old and in heat. All our neighbourhood dogs (for miles!) are female, so i thought we were safe, but a neighbour has a friend's dog staying with them and i didn't know. I've been more careful now that i know there is a male dog around, but i'm afraid they may have had contact before i found out. My dog is still bleeding, so does that mean that we got lucky and she's not pregnant? Or do they keep bleeding even after being impregnated?

Please don't tell me to get her spayed right away. The vet won't even make an appointment yet.

I have 2 yorkies, one which is very small, weighing around 3lb's if that, and one which is 4 and a half to 5 pounds. Are they both still considered as toy size or is the larger one a miniature?

First of all, I'm a 35 yr old woman and yesterday I adopted a 7 yr old purebred yellow lab. He's beautiful and quite big. He was given to me by a guy that was going to Iraq and couldnt find anywhere for him to go. Well, my husband's mom and dad thought I was crazy. He is really huge...his owner said he was the runt of the litter and now he is very large. Big block head and huge paws. He is very well-behaved and intelligent. Well, my father-in-law said I was crazy for getting a dog that big. My mother-in-law acted like she was scared of him. My sister-in-law, who has a pomperanian, started saying to her dog, "I wont let that big old ugly dog step on you!" He wasnt even near her dog, didnt bark or anything. My father-n-law said I better get a big leash and kept saying he was going to be a handfull and I will regret it. I already love him and dont care what he says. What is your opinion and reason on why they acted like this? Thank you.

I have a springer spaniel that is 8 months old and he chews everything. He will chew on absolutely anything! Shoes, hair bows, paper, wires..... What can I do to make him stop? I know about the bitter spray you can buy but some things he gets a hold of can't be sprayed with it.

i have 5 little dogs that have absolutely taken over the house. we love our dogs and do not want to get rid of any of them. we have a baby gate and we crate them in the kitchen, but anytime i let them out of the kitchen...they always end up sneaking around and pooping or peeing in the house! also...when i try to let them outside, they either go outside and stand there or refuse to go out. we try to pick them up and physically walk outside into the middle of the yard with them, but they end up running towards the door! its so frustrating.

we're unsure of what to do in that respect. and also...we can't seem to get some of the urine smell out of the house. we manage to cover it up with air fresheners but that never lasts. and also, we bought a carpet steamer and that seemed to only make it worse!

help us!!

Ok so I have had my puppy for almost three weeks now.I have been potty treining him but I got hurt and couldnt work with him as much for the past five days or so.I still took him out but not as much, so he spent much of his time in the bathroom with his toilette paper and I only took him out about twice a day.Now I'm feeling a bit better and ready to get back down to the task of potty training.
My dog has pood in his bed and peed twice on the bathroom floor.Does this mean he is confused or what?
Any advice is appriciated.
Also how often do I need to take him outside.He is small breed.
Thank you to those who read this and give advice.

My dog is now a year old and is very happy and healthy. I want to keep her that way. She needs her second rabies shot and every time I try to make an appointment for her to get it they all want to charge me for an examination. The exam costs 4 times what the shot alone costs. I think that the exam is a money making thing. Does she have to have the exam or do I need to just get her a shot somehow?

i have a 9 month old boxer and 1 year old mini poodle. Every time we leave the house, our boxer goes and eats the poodles food. Both
of the dogs have separate food bowls that are placed on opposite sides of the house. Our boxer knows where its food bowl is, but for some reason when we arent home, or when she thinks no bodys around ( I have caught her on several occasions) she starts to eat the poodles dry dog food. On occasion when we are home, but not looking, the poodle will go eat the boxers food! When we catch them we spray them with bottled water and tell them no! but it seems to keep happening. Can anybody tell me why? Is it jealousy?

Do you think they are all orphans or just sadly "neglected"???
It's that ancient question : Who came first, the neglected kids or neglected dogs.

My 12 yr old shistzu who seems to have a very healthy body except for losing sight and deaf and going into dementia, but she has a dry nose and seems to be more disoriented. I have very little money, so I thought I'd come here first. She is eating and drinking and running in the park ?
