I have a 3 year old Rott. I have countless Kongs and she doens't like those unless I fill it with peanut butter (and then she has it clean out in a matter of minutes). She seems to love toys that she can rip to shreds (she can disintigrate a tennis ball in under 5 minutes)...those tug ropes only last a day or so until she has worked on them until they are just shreds of string. What can I do?

What do you all feel about people that HAVE to give you THEIR two cents about what you are buying for your pets?? Or are you one of the people that offers advice to people you don't know??
No right or wrong answer at all here!!!

I was at the grocery store getting cans of Friskies or 9-Lives mixed grill or supper supper for my 2 19 year old cats that get some daily with thyroid medication. I know it is crap food, but they eat it and like it and they are old enough to get what they like.
The last three times, there has been SOMEONE that needed to tell me that I can get better food at PetSmart or someplace else. Or that I am SLOWLY killing my cats. Or some other crap.

I have had the SAME thing happen when getting the Beneful crap that comes in the little tupperware container that I get for the 15 year old mix that I have.

Does anyone else hate this?

Personally, I do not feel the need to educate everyone in the store!! Do you??

(NO RIGHT OR WRONG HERE)

My friend wants a very large dog that does not drool a lot, and has a natural instinct for protection, as her husband is in Iraq for 15 months every other year, and she gets scared at night. She will never have kids, she is a loner, she has no other pets..her mastiff died 7 months ago, she is a runner, hiker, has horses. Also, some type of animal in the wild has been circling her stables at night. We think a coyote is their a dog that could successfully defeat a coyote with minimal injuries or just scare it off due to it's size?

When your dog is old and doesn't have a long time to live, should they be exempt from having Rabies shot?

I want to take him to the vet, but I am between jobs at the moment and, while I can afford the 'office visit', I can't afford any type of diagnostics or treatments, if needed. Does anyone know of low cost veterinary care in southern California? Specifically Orange County. Thank you for your help.

Do you have a dog that would really protect you if you needed it? If so, what kind of dog and how do you think it would protect you. I have a East German working line Shepherd that I know will protect me if needed. I know that he will not bite on command wihtout someone having a sleeve on. But, I know that he will protect me if needed by taking someone down if they came after me.

I need some information about English Miniature Labradoodles! Thinking about getting one but need a rough estimate on adult size, weight and temperament.
Also, what prices are they being sold for as puppies? In English £'s only as I live in England!

I just recieved a new chihuahua puppy yesterday. When I picked Foxxy up to pet her I noticed little bugs crawling on her, my sister later informed me that unfortunatly "the little bugs" are fleas. I removed alot of them by combing her fur and I bathed her, but there are still a few fleas left on her. I want to be able to bring Foxxy around other people and let her sit on the couch but, right now I dont think that's safe for the people shes around. Im basically just looking for the safest way to remove the rest of the fleas and eggs from Foxxy's fur.

OK, what suggestions do you have for a dog that is so gung ho, that she basically plows me down on recalls! LOL I have stopped doing finishes with her right now on a recall, because she was so happy to finish after plowing me down. LOL She will be a high scorer when I get her fine tuned. The biggest thing is getting her to stop and sit in front of me on a recall without her trying to knock me over or without her putting her paws up on me as well. Any suggestions?

My friend slept over last night and while we were sitting on the couch watching tv my dog jumped on the couch and out of the blue just attacked her hand. Today she couldn't feel her arm so she had to get a tetnus shot. My dog's a westie so he's small but I don't know what to do because he attacks people. I don't want to put him down, is there anywhere to give him away to someone? I don't know if my mom will let me do that, but I don't want my friends to be afraid of comoing over.

Sorry to be blunt in the title, but I have a desperate client who needs a solution quickly, and I don't have the time to shift through answers which just say 'i fink cranberrys good for bladder probs!!1!'

I 'm a vet nurse in a busy practice, and I have a client who owns a two year old FN SBT (pure bred I might add, and is not owned for all the wrong reasons)

The dog has had a severe bladder infection for over a year now. She has visited a specialist, who discovered that part of the problem was due to how she was spayed. From a sneaky peek at the specialists report, I saw that it was something along the lines of the uterine stump was stuck to something it shouldn't be. I couldn't find out much more, as I was told 'You shouldn't be looking at that, it doesn't concern you..' I digress.

After the specialist visit, the dog was put on a cocktail of AB's, clomicalm, Diazapam, Cystease, and cranberry capsules, totalling over 30 tablets a day, over three doses of each except Diaz).
