i know someone, who i clean house for that has a dog that is DEBARKED!!!!! that dog is sooo wonderful, as all are, but just the fact that he can't bark, breaks my heart! i look into her eyes, and they really touch my soul! it just dosen't seem right to me, , i mean dogs bark! it's what they do! and seems so sad that she can't.
what do you think of this? and what's you'r opinion? does it hurt the dag in any way?

My dog is a siberian husky and we've had him a few years now, and about 2 years after we got him he would always bite/chew/rip the hair out on his paws. It's gotten pretty bad now. You know when you scrape your knee on the concrete? Well thats how his two front paws are. Kinda like cuts/scrapes. He's starting at his tail now. We've been to the vet and he gave us some kind of spray, but it didn't really work and cost us an arm and leg. My mom ordered him more medicine but it hasn't came yet. Is there anything we can do for him? It breaks my heart, the poor thing. He's also rather FAT. Seriously he weights 104 pounds, but he doesn't really eat much...Does he need a diet?...

How much would you charge for pet sitting over Thanksgiving for a 1yr old chihuahua?
I'm not a kennel, or a proffesional buisness.

Please put your answer per day.

Thank you=]

so last night i gave my dog a bath and then cleaned his ears with just a little bit of the drops (i havent cleaned his ears in a while so i figured he was due for a cleaning...). this evening, everytime i touch the base of his ear he yelps and cries and runs away... obviously in a lot of pain! there isnt an oder and he hasnt been scratching it... so do you think it is an ear infection and do i need to take him to the vet asap? or do you think his ears are just sensitive and it will pass? thanks for any help! im so worried about my little boy!

Adopted from the SPCA. She had been shot and abused. The last 4 years she has been a perfect companion. We had her on all of the meds that are normal for dog. She got a cold. Then her abdomen enlarged. She started using the restroom in the house, she slept all the time and doesnt jump on the bed or couch anymore. The vet took an xray. Her heart is inlarged and has little fluid in her lungs. He wants to do expensive tests. We love her. she is 15 years old. We decided to put her down. We havent yet. We want to know if this is the right thing to do.

I really want a puppy and I have to convince dad that we can have one, the problem is, we do not have a secure fence. Is there any way to keep a puppy without a fence, if so what breeds?

Both my two dogs and two cats, (these two are brothers), sniff each others' butts; why? Is it their way to say hi? To introduce themselves? My pets have been together for more than 5 years now. Or do they like the way it feels on both the giving and receiving ends?

I wish I were a dog or a cat...they are so lucky... they could lick themselves too probably because they can :)

when you can just go to a local grocer and pick up a few packs of raw chicken and turkey? I don't get why people wanna spend 100$ on BARF when the exact same think is in a grocery store for half the price??!!

I love my boys. The big one is 12 years old He is a shepheard/labrador mix, so 12 is old for him
On his back right leg between his belly and the leg there is a soft "thing" growing. It feels like a water balloon. The scarier part is, its getting bigger fast.
I am on disability and very broke. What can I do?

I know i'm thinking WAY too far ahead, but when I move out i've decided to get a Siberian Husky puppy. (Yes i've given this alot of thought, and thanks to anyone who answered my dog breed question the other day, and I'm getting him from a reliable breeder) Probably a male, female names are appreciated, however.

I want-
- An Original name, none of this 'balto' 'nanook' 'chinook' business. Nor things like Max, socks etc.
-Something powerful, with a good meaning behind it, or a nice ring.
-I love foreign names.
-The weirder the better!

My dog came in with his left hind pinky claw gone! There is evidence it was bleeding but now it's just kind of pussey. It's kind of late so i was advised to put it in water to clean it to see it better, he wouldn't let me do that i think it stung. And then to put gauze and wrap it in a bandage. He let me do that and seems to be fine. Is this okay?? What can I do?? Help!! I am a first time dog owner....

Did your vet want to seperate the vaccinations into double appointments, or did he want me to pay for more Vet appointment visits?

I work in a store and sometimes I will see people walk their dog into the store and they are not blind. It is store policy to not ask them about their dog so I cannot ask them.
