Ok, this morning my dog had diareah all over the floor and then this afternoon he did it again! He usually asks to go outside and he didnt! I didn't find any scraps of food or wrappers anywhere, so I dont think he got into anything in the house- but maybe outside! What should I do! My mom will probly just say- he don't need to go to the vet! Please help!

Do you think when im older I should move to a horrible ghetto town to save abused animals? I am scared but I feel it is my duty to save them, and like they are all depending on me... Do you think I should take the risk?

I'm looking for a place to work my dog in the winter, preferably indoors. I've been trying to train her with the disc, but this proves to be difficult in the winter when snow and ice make the ground almost impossible to be active on. Are there special shoes I can purchase to help me with this?

There is also the issue that she has an old injury in her back leg that flares with inactivity for long periods of time, and the stress that practicing on the snow gives it.

Any ideas for where I can find a place that will rent a large room to me for an hour or so once a day? I've considered asking some local dog training centers, and possibly a school (school gym), but would be interested in hearing other takes on this situation. Any advice would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

More details: My cat doesn't use a litter box anymore, and has always gone outside on his own when he needs to go to the bathroom. Now that I have been closing the window at night, Jack the Cat is either stuck inside, or I don't want him stuck outside in the winter cold without a way in. I am not always around to let him in/out, but this was never a problem until the racoons discovered the dry cat food & water source in my house by coming in the cat door. For the first time, last night I was not home, and Jack was stuck in the house without a way out, and he had an accident on the carpet. He is an 8yr old cat, and never had this problem before, and it is only because I was not there to open the cat door for him. I'm thinking about putting a litter box back in, just for these occasions, but I can not be held captive to these raccoons for the rest of our lives! Any advice????

My 6 month old lab has lots of energy now and i can only imagine what it will be like when she's full grown. I take her to the dog park three times a week, but on days she doesn't go it's harder to tire her out. Eventually i wanna train her to run by my bike. Has anyone done this? I've also heard of attachments you can get for your bike so the dog can't cut in front of you.

is it true that if you cut some of them off that the cat will lose its balance and it would probably get stuck in tight places more often??

I want to adopt this cat, male, but it has Feline Leu. Can it spread on to humans? I want to know because I'm kind of afraid and unsure.

because I haven't had time to take him. This is his third set (Bordetella, Rabies and Parvo). I'm taking him on Wed, but I'm still worried he might have rabies. Can he get rabies if he's late for his shots?

He's five.

Hey, this is the same guy who asked about what fish I should put in my tank, and if I put chilids in my tank, would they kill my small catfish looking fish and my sucker fish? Thanks.

My fish tank filter killed my three fish in 5 weeks. I cleaned the filter or replaced it every 2 weeks like it said. They still died. I did not feed them too much or too little. I even left the conditioner for the water in as long as it said and the right amount of it too. I did every thing right. When I took the fiter out it was really slimmy and stuff. It sucked up all of the food. It would not filter the water for long because it would get clogged to fast.

I have recently recieved a 55 gal. fish tank for Christmas, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what fish I should throw in there. I do not however want to overpopulate it, and I am looking for colorful freshwater fish. I also want the fish to be either good community or semi-aggressive-- no killers!

P.S.: I was also looking to get atleast 1-2 gouramis in there, is there any other species of that fish besides the Dwarf Gourami? Thanks.

I have two small dogs that I need to find a home. One is a dachshund, and the other is a chihuahua mix. We also own an apbt. All of the dogs are female, and they fight constantly. It usually starts with the dachshund instigating the fight, and the apbt getting severly agrivated with her. The fights have never been bad enough to the point where anyone gets seriously hurt, but I want to seperate them before it goes that far. Besides, it's not good for the dogs to be stressed out all the time. Of course, we love all our dogs, and want to find them good homes. None of our local shelters are no kill shelters, so that's out of the question. I took some pictures of them with the digital camra, and made a flyer to put up at our vet and local Petsmart bulletin. Does anyone else have any ideas? Thanks...

Every night after about 6 hours our one dog that is just over a year old black lab mix starts whinning and pawing at the door and won't stop until one of us get up. After I get up he get really excited for a couple of minutes then curls up and goes back to sleep. But by that time I'm usually awake. If we try to ignore him he just gets louder. Does anyone have any suggestions?
