It is funny to see this headline on our local news (CBS) web site:
"Some Prep for Snow, Other Think Flakes Won't Fly Yet"
Then I look outside the window and see accumulations nearing a half foot of snow, then I look at the weather maps and realize that the local CBS affiliate is probably...
Do you agree with my theory that this trend towards "rescuing" dogs and cats has
only increased abandonment? of these pets?

I know there is a ton of info out there on introducing a new kitten to older dogs, but it all seems to focus on the dogs being too aggressive or not liking the cat, etc. I have the opposite problem. My dogs (three small breed dogs) are very loving and gentle towards her but she hisses like...
i have 2 12 kickers pushed by 1500 watts so it can bump a bit, i like to bring my dog for the ride sometimes but i wasnt sure if it was bad for him or his hearing being that he is small and their hearing is much more sensative. i turned it up once with him in the car and he got surprised by it...
Other neighbors say she is crazy. She puts nails through the fence to keep dogs and children from climbing on it or bumping into it. I just wanted other people's opinions. We did decide to pass on this house.

i have a 11 week old pit bull puppy and i am starting to suspect she has some kind of skin allergy because she is scratching a lot. she has no fleas or mites so i know that is not the problem. she will wake up to scratch and then after about 5 minutes go right back to sleep. i am wondering if...
I just noticed my dog is limping but i'm not sure if i should take him to the vet. he has limped before and it got better over time but it looks bad this time. theres a bump on top of his paw kinda towards [his] left side. He completly straightenes his leg out when he walks and doesn't want to...
my dog has been brought up with other dogs and used to live with a male dog and they were always playing and messing around with eachother. However i took her out today (im always hoping to bump into other owners with their dogs so she can play with them) and she came across a dog and they...

This occurred to me a little while a go while answering another question...why do people think that a working dog cannot be a companion animal? Why cant a properly bred companion animal not be a working dog, if the need arose?
Is it because of the deterioration of all working breeds, is it...
