Question by DROOGIE♥: Would it be hard to take care of a dog & cat both recovering from getting spayed surgery at the same time?
Okay so I have a 12 week old pitbull,
and I want her to get spayed but I
understand that the vet will only spay at
5-6 months of age. yes? well, I have a
cat too. I was told she was a male [which is
why I originally got her] but unfortunately, now
she is obviously pregnant -_-. But what’s done is
done I guess, & I want to get her spayed as well.
Is it a bad idea to get them spayed at the same
time. [Like one day the dog, & the next, the cat]
or should I just wait, and get the cat spayed AFTER
she has her kittens, and then when the pitbull is old
enough, have her spayed at separate times? can I
get your opinion on this?, tips, advice anything? Thanks!:)

Best answer:

Answer by Ashera
If it’s not too late for an emergency spay, you should just get the cat done now. As for getting them both done at the same time, it will be more stressful for you. They should sleep most of the time, but you have double the worry and you will have to watch both to make sure they aren’t picking at their stitches.

I have a pregnant cat that I got from my friend..?

March 19, 2012 by 3 Comments

issue of : I have a pregnant cat that I got from my friend ..
My friends mother wanted her cat to give away to the shelter because she is pregnant. I knew that this is a bad idea, because most shelters do not accept them either in going or they will kill. I felt bad so I took the cat to my Freund.IM pretty sure she’s feeling more than 7 weeks because I was moving the kittens like crazy. She also ate a ton and go to the bathroom and sleep a lot more. I feed dry and wet kitten food kitten food once a day. I’m with organic waste pellets, because I was nervous for the kittens to be around the sand because it can be very dusty. I cleaned intire walk-in closet. That’s where I put her litter, food and water. I have also vaccume it once a day, and I think away from other animals. Another thing is, I’m not sure how well my friend took particular care of her and I am asking rude, but I was about to insure them on Revolution for cats that do not get the kittens, fleas or something else to think. Do you think that’s a good idea? I’ve read that it can be used on pregnant cats. Is there anything left that I do for them? Please give me advice or let me know if I’m going to miss something. Thanks, and I’m only 16 years old, but I know what we would treat animals and take them even better than most adults I. My family have my dog ​​breed puppies three times when I was growing up and I have my whole life long cat. (This is only the first cat I was pregnant) Oh and I forgot to add that it is almost a year old .. so very young. My friend says she sneaked out of the house a few times, so that as they became pregnant Best Answer.

response from Ames
like your doing a great job sound, make sure she has a good place to have kittens … my cat was very picky! Here is a nice site about pregnant cat care http://stopbarkingdog.hubpages.com/hub/PregnantCatAuch! Spay and neuter your animals unless you are breeding them. Animal shelters and roads crossed the wrong people and animals on their hands.

She has behaved incredibly well as a pet and seems very willing to learn (even if the whole thing seems to heel on leash her to escape completely).

She is planning to do on the obedience training and agility training may also apply to 4-H.Allerdings the dog has decided that I wanted the one they want as their person am.

Q&A: Female problems….how do I keep them from fighting? They never fought before, this is new?

February 1, 2012 by 1 Comment

Question by TerriersRock: Female problems….how do I keep them from fighting? They never fought before, this is new?
Sorry forgive me for the length, just trying to get some answers to this

For the sake of the other dogs owner, I’m not going to use the dogs real names.

Okay I have 1 year old Terrier mix (well more like 1 and a half) who is typically very calm and submissive. Her name is Ziva

My grandparents have what they were told was a 2 year old Bichon mix (though our guess is she is about 5 or 6) who is a bit fiesty, some would say slightly agressive at times but still a very good dog. her name is Allie

My grandparents adopted their bichon from the shelter this past Feb or March.

I adopted my Terrier the previous april as a young puppy.

There is a Male Poodle running around too by the way. His name is Jack

By the way all 3 dogs are fixed, but the bichon wasn’t fixed until my grandparents adopted her. My poodle was fixed at 6 months, My terrier was fixed at 5 months of age

Anyways the 3 of them always got on so well. Ever since my grandparents brought Allie home, all 3 have been the best of friends. But in the last few weeks more and more problems have seemed to arise between Ziva and Allie.

We live in an apartment so we take our dogs over to their house to play in their yard a few times a week. Never had any problems before. We’ve done this since our poodle Jack was 13 weeks old. He is the older of my two dogs.

Now they Ziva and Allie are breaking into fights, we are having to separate them. And it changes on who starts the fight.

We have had to separate them on the last 2 visits because Allie bit into Ziva really hard and wouldn’t let go, and then Ziva bit back down on her good 2 times. My husband Pulled Ziva off Allie, she didn’t bite her hard enough to even leave a mark, but there were some scratches and marks on Ziva from Allie. Allie is a bit of a scrapper. Ziva again is very submissive and only would have fought back if she felt in danger but again she did nothing that would have hurt the other dog, she didn’t even have a grip on her. Nothing needing medical attention.

These two dogs have always got on so good.

Is there anything we can do to help them through this and get back to where they were?

(I will add a time or two my poodle instigated things between them but nothing that ever broke out in a fight)

I don’t want to have to give up their place for exercise but I don’t like the idea of taking over their dogs territory and not letting her play too.

What are some tips for knowing a fight is about to start and stopping it?

And how do we get them back to being good friends again?

______________________
By the way we go to their place to let our dogs play because its a safe place for them to play offleash. Dog parks are too dangerous I feel, especially after seeing 2 dogs, 2 different times, get killed at our local dog park. That was enough for us to say, never again. We care too much about our dogs.

I just don’t understand this sudden new behavior between Allie and Ziva they have always been such good friends, what could have happened.

I’ll admit both Jack and Allie tend to gang up on Ziva a lot, but there has never been any issues between Allie and Ziva
ADD: I also do one at a time visits with my dogs as well and Allie and Ziva got on so well but our last one on one visit, we couldn’t even get in the door before Allie jumped Ziva and started trying to fight her. Ziva just cowered, submissively.

Don’t know what it is really. All the sudden it seems allie hates Ziva

She still does fine one on one with Jack
ADD: We went on home after that happened, the one on one visit between allie and Ziva
Allie is the oldest of the group. But she is the newest dog in the family. Again we think she is more like 5 or 6 years old. She seems very old. And the shelter admitted she is anywhere between 2 and 4.

Again our dogs have always gone over there to play, and up until a few weeks ago Allie and Ziva got on fine. Its kind of a sudden thing

Best answer:

Answer by darlene r
keep Jack out of the picture for a few times and see how things go. sounds like Allie may be following his lead in ganging up on Ziva.

She is of 14″ (inch) in height, 36″ (inch) of long (excluding tail) and at least 12 Kilograms (26 pounds) of weight.

Kindly suggest me books on Dog Training, Diat (feed) of Dogs, Cleanliness, remedy to stop hair losing and any other important suggestions.

Answer by blackhole

any tips/tricks/solutions on how to stop an adult (she’s at a shelter) dog from biting?

January 9, 2012 by 3 Comments

question by Anonymous :.? any tips / tricks / solutions, as an adult (she is in a shelter) dog bite not Stop
well not that I did in this animal shelter volunteer and have kittens and a dog. the dog also has some important questions, and get it hasn’t yet so accepted. she is the sweetest girl, except for the fact that it bites. I mean, she literally runs into the skin of their teeth and bite a hole through the skin. she did it on my mother twice, but hasn’t been done. and she also has this barking problem, but I think that’s just cuz shes in a cage. she is the sweetest dog other than the fact I think it’s just a bunch of love and let your pet if they are not the hyper … but no children are aloud to touch her, but she loves me (im 17) and we think they bite because they from their mother too early and weined was not taught not to bite, and she was probably either abused or neglected, but that’s another story. shall have a solution to someone, what if the dog bites do? I mean, most people would say, put her down … but a really sweet girl and deserves a second chance. she is part pitbull / Sharpee / terrier mix, and she was probably trained to fight in dog fights, but then I guess they do not think she was good enough so that they could not do it for them has only scars on her dick. she loves cats and humans when they are not the hyper and i as it is very sweet, she said just needs discipline. shall have somebody have an idea of ​​what we could do if they bite? and how to stop them? I mean, they can be trusted, they just learn to love. if they move food and the people in the shelter, she does not bite … They only bite if they are afraid or is hyper … But if you pull it, she gets off. so they do not really mean they just never learned. Shelter for animals who need a second chance, and I think that is good for you is not no matter how long they the animals they just want to give them a second chance, no matter how vile they are, and they are all very happy when they Get hermitage actually loves kids just do not know if they are nonstop in her face when she is excited … they just need discipline I mean, they use a spray bottle it works sometimes, but not someone try to say any solutions? and dont put her down, she gets a second chance because they are not prepared to bite people verdient.die was there are pretty good with the animals. I mean, they are patient, keep the place really clean, and they are friendly to all of them. I mean, they may not beat her when she is bad for i guess you are never to know … Best Answer:

answer by Erika
dogs like that to try vocational training, have to unlearn the biting. I recommend anyone who is not qualified to versuchen.Rufen around you for a behaviorist – perhaps because it is a shelter dog, they will try their free trainieren.Wenn behaviorism is not in a position to help her, may they must be euthanized.
