I "temporarily" adopted this dog. He's a greyhound, and the owner just wanted to find him a good home she asked for no money for him even though he has "show dog" lines. I told her we had to think about it and she offered to just let us take him for a few days to see how he works out in our home...

We just adopted a 5 month old puppy from our local SPCA and he sleeps A LOT! I know it is normal for puppies to sleep alot because they are growing but he won't even think about getting up when I try to take him out to potty. I actually had to lift him up out of his crate to get him to go...

I recently adopted a dog from the pound.She whines/cries & jumps on me when I come
home.Why does she do this? I adopted her last week. After the initial trauma and stress from being in the pound for two weeks, she started warming up nicely. But now, I will leave for a while and she's fine, but...
. . . and she's a quirky little thing. She started coming around our house when she was obviously in heat (always being trailed by at least one male cat), as though she was seeking asylum. Husband started feeding her, and we made her a box with a blanket in it, etc. She is an outdoor cat -- I...
or rescued from the shelter? Ok so there was an ad on my local CL with a 9 month old St Bernard.They have posted a few times and im not sure why the dog hasn't been adopted..I also have a St Bernard so even though im not interested I still am always pulled to that ad. Well today it said if she's...
Okay so I was adopted when I was three and having new parents isn't easy. My new Dad(Keith) beat the crap out of my brother. He always hits me and I can't deal w/ it anymore. I don't want to call child pretective service because then I'll have to be put up for adoption again and my brother is...
Unemployment has reached two million and will no doubt continue to grow. A large portion of those stats is made up of bored, demotivated young people. Would it be a good idea to adapt the Australian and American way of educating; keeping kids at school until they're 18. where they'll get a...
...aggressive....? My daughter has adopted her first rescue cat. Initially it would wriggle free when she tried to pick it up. She has tried offering treats, leaving it alone, etc, but now, when she tries to pick it up, it hisses and attacks. She wants to be able to cuddle her cat and doesn't...
My 7 year old female greyhound has decided to start peeing by my baby grand piano. I've had the carpet cleaned, I've told her "no pee!" and she seems to know, but somehow she goes back to that area. I can't seem to catch her in the act. She gets lazy about going outside when it's cold. I really...
mix, Parker.? We adopted him from North Shore Animal League. He had just come in the day before from Virginia and he is so shy and scared. When we first brought him home, he would run and lay down in a corner or behind anything that could hide him. My mother (who lives downstairs) has a dog...
My parents have always been very open about the fact that I was adopted, and I was aware of the fact since I was one year old...however, what my parents and I did not learn until much later was that I have biological siblings. Having been raised as a single child this came as a bit of shock to...
I have had a dog boarding and training at this facility for many months... he was in a very bad situation before and so I rescued him and have paid for him to stay at this place for many months because I couldn't bring him home due to the animals that I already have. However, the trainer is a...
My whole life I've wanted to meet my birth parents and when I discussed it with my adoptive parents my mom got furious. I still want to meet them and would love to know how I can make it possible.
I don't have my birth parents names or information
My adopted aunt is really cool. But I am not looking for a romantic relationship with her. I do love her. I really miss her. How can I tell her how I felt when she got hurt. She's the only person I can go to. And talk about my feelings. She means so much to me. I am about to cry cause she got...
