    Urgent, need help with dwarf hamsters!

    I've yet to hear of a hamster breeder..I was going to adopt one but they were extremely aggressive, and as I have 3 young children, it just wouldn't work. Syrian hamsters are solitary- dwarf hamsters can live together, if they are from the same litter.

    Urgent, need help with dwarf hamsters!

    Nope, I've had a hamster die of wet tail before, but not this one. My best guess is that he was a she and was pregant, and died from complications. He/she was only 1-2 months old.

    Urgent, need help with dwarf hamsters!

    should I return the living hamster? they have been in the same cage forever, so he is most likely sick too..=[..we also wanted to have two hamsters, and that's not really possible unless the dwarves have grown up together.

    Urgent, need help with dwarf hamsters!

    We had them both in the socializing bin for a while, and we were holding the healthy hamster, Domino. When we went to pick up Crusty (the possibly sick/pregant one), she was dead. She seems to have been pregnant and sick. We put Domino back in their cage, and tomorrow we will go to Petco and let...

    Urgent, need help with dwarf hamsters!

    xpost in other pet forum Yesterday we purchased two young dwarf hamsters from a local Petco. They are brothers and get along quite nicely. One of the hamsters seems to be healthy and happy- running around, curious, eating, and runs on the wheel a lot. The other is our problem. (It may help to...

    bax ripped his leash...

    :yikes: it was one of those retractable ones and we've only had it since June. We tied Baxter up outside with the leash right on our back door, so we could see him from the kitchen (the door is see through). He was in a playful mood and I was cleaning up, so I figured I should let him get...

    Humping at 5 months

    Alright, thanks so much for your advice :)...yes, he will be a big boy, at 5 months he is already 50 pounds! Oh and one more thing- is there anything else I can do until then if he doesn't respond to the water approach?

    Humping at 5 months

    He isn't a breed- a mutt poodle lab mix.

    Humping at 5 months

    Labreeder, FYI I've read several training books- Baxter is very well trained in all other aspects. He barks to go to the bathroom, knows how to heel, will follow his human family if we are leaving even if he's playing with other dogs, knows a surprising amount of tricks for his age, and hasn't...

    Humping at 5 months

    Alright, I thought Bax was too young for this! Dogs at the park, neighbor dogs, and most recently, my children's legs! How can I get him to stop this behavior now, because he is still too young to be neutered? It confuses my kids out as they are very young and don't know what he's doing...they...

    Doodles (and how Labradoodles are different)

    Oh, Baxter is anything but shy and snappy. He is playful and definitely acts more lab-like...but he has kept the poodle's intelligence. We are happy to have him :) Edit: Also, no offense, but could we keep the underage breeding issue out of this thread? It is off topic.
