    MICE! help!

    I had a mouse invasion at the beginning of winter. Those suckers were everywhere, judging by their poopies but only actually saw one. Got those traps (the kind where you don't have to touch anything icky) and used those in the house and used mouse poison in our shed (where they'd also taken up...

    Not a dog but a wonderful pet

    Thank you. Here is a picture of her. Her cage is in my room where my computer is and I can really feel her absence. :( Isn't it amazing how even the smallest of pets have such a hold on your heart? Yes, 5-6 years is about the typical life-span for a Guinea Pig but I think the...

    Not a dog but a wonderful pet

    My little American Crested Guinea Pig passed away tonight. I came in the room to find her slumped over with her head in her food bowl. :( She had been unusually quiet this evening and I think I heard her last squeak. I think she passed only a few minutes before I came in the room. Asia was a...

    Scrapbooking??

    I have enough scrapbooking supplies to open my own store! I was really into it a few years back and then I moved and got into fixing up my house. Still...I continued to buy supplies for when I was ready to start again. Right. I haven't done a page in eons. Whoever said they were poor...

    How do you budget for Christmas??

    I budget for Christmas by not having one. :( This will be the second year in a row that I haven't been able to buy gifts for anyone. It's so depressing. Homemade gifts are always nice. How crafty are you? Most people love gift cards too. Not very personal, but handy! Or how about...

    Celebrity lookalikes

    A long time ago while I was at a small mom and pop grocery store, I almost pooped my pants when I saw Sylvester Stallone standing right there in front of me! This guy was a dead ringer. When I went to a Brittney Spears concert with my daughter a few years back, the guy sitting next to me...

    Is it wrong to leave a dog alone?

    My two cents... I never used crates until I got Chyna. The dog I used to have was gated in a hallway when he was a puppy while I was gone until he achieved bladder and bowel control. He was fine. Chyna was crated as a puppy when I was gone and I had my daughter come over to let her out once...

    Hot Spots

    Thanks for the tips, everyone. It isn't my dog that has the hot spot, though. I was inquiring for a client. Thanks again! Pam

    Hot Spots

    Thanks for the replies but I think what someone mentioned before was a powder. Isn't Desitin a creme? Does the apple cider vinegar mix work? You know your pugs well, Showpug. :) I have pictures of her where she looks even "puggier".

    Hot Spots

    A while back someone recommended an over the counter "human" product that they used (and it worked!) for hot spots on their dog. Does anyone remember what it was? Thanks! Pam

    One day old puppy won't eat and constipated. Help

    Why doesn't someone put up a sticky thread entitled "Why you shouldn't breed your dog" and post it in each forum. That way, a new person can come in here and ask questions without getting interrogated and verbally beaten up. They would have the option to read the sticky thread, and if they...

    Skinned elbows

    I know of someone who "invented" these leg warmer type thing for dogs specifically for this problem. I am not sure if she is still in business, though. Maybe you could whip up something yourself. These things had straps that went over the dogs back to hold them up. Weird looking...yes...but...

    Pink Spot On nose

    I guess that could be a possibility. Try switching to stainless steel or a crock type bowl. It still does very much look like he has been pushing something with his nose. Some dogs like to arrange their bedding and scrape their noses in the process...or, as I said, push food bowls around...or...

    Bella Ate A Toad!

    Florida has those huge Bufo toads and they can kill a dog just from the dog licking them. That's why the Vet had her rinse her dogs mouth out. I think they are far more toxic than other species of toads. Pam
