As an herper of over 30 yrs, I just want to know is how many of the members actually had a slimy reptile? Salamanders,turtles, and Newts excluded. if you have a slimy snake you need to consult a vet ASAP.
No onions or garlic of any kind ever. These are good for you and me but toxic for dogs. As a vet tech I see on a regular basis dogs coming in anemic from these spices. Hell for the safe side leave most spices out altogether. You want a good treat ...
Tougher penalties for these atrocities are needed if we are ever to deter these sadistic crimes. But on another note if all we focus on is pit bull fighting, we are as one sided as the media. We also need laws to protect another noble breed of dog...
Owen, i want to apologize for everyone here. Some ditzy neglectful, abusive rabbit breeder admitted to killing her bunny and then asking people to GIVE her another on a cute dog contest in "Dogsville" Me and a few others expressed our discontent o...
It probably goes down the chain of command. Hearing you recently had surgery, that might have moved down the chain of command. You havn't been 100% and the yorkies like most toy dogs took over. I assume they were both spoiled rotten not dissing yo...
This whole country is a victim of the fear mongering media. The pit mix in my profile is a rehabilitated and saved dog fighter. She in turn with some extra loving, a good home, and a lot of TLC turned into one of the best dogs i have ever had. Her...
Home Again does charge a small nominal fee yearly, but they do more than just register your number. They also have a staff of vets that can give you free advise(not really free since you pay 15 bucks a year) if you have any questions or concerns a...
Both have their own unique chip numbers. Like a UPS and FedEx tracking numbers. And all chip numbers are on same database with animal control since chip numbers are registered to their license number. You just have to make sure they have a license...
I voted for Owen Ralphie, for now. Next week I will be voting for my dog Maya:) Not going to ignore the only reason I came to this discussion in the first place. As a vet tech I saw someone with a posting on how they killed their rabbit through th...
Why was he on Metrodonizole in the first place? As a veterinary technician I can tell you that drug is used only for diarrhea, but what caused the diarrhea in the first place? Bloody stool, vomiting, not eating or drinking. We need the whole story...
I have a brindle pit bull/greyhound mix. She is basically a pit bull on a greyhound frame. When we go for walks people cross the street to the other side of the road even though she doesn't pay any attention to them. When people actually come to p...
Unfortunately this kind of crap happens everywhere. Most cops join the force because they were bullies in school and can't do it out of school, so they become cops and get paid for being bullies and a holes. Alot join just so they can carry a gun ...
pit bull/greyhound mix named Maya
Min daschund named Tennyson
Dom short hair named Loki
Ragdoll cat named Puck
Red tail boa named Big Boy
Ball python named Jade
Leopard Gecko named Spock
How we met:
member ASPCA for 2 years
Pet likes:
Puck-sleeping in the window ledge soaking in some rays
Loki-beating up on Puck or bathing himself
Maya likes to chew and run like a maniac
Tennyson likes rough housing with Maya
Pet dislikes:
Loki-dogs
Puck-being petted for more than 3 strokes, worth the display of teeth to cuddle a 15 lb solid white long hair cat with one blue eye and one yellow
Maya-other dogs that walk by the house
Tennyson-any affection my wife gives me
Pet’s favorite spot:
Puck-back of the couch
Loki- the basket at the top of his cat tower
Tennyson-his bagel bed
Maya-wherever I go
Pet’s favorite toy:
Maya-tennis ball
Tennyson-whatever Maya is playing with
Loki-his 8 ft cat tower
Puck doesn't play he sleeps and eats and that is all he does, other than being Loki's punching bag.
Pet’s silliest habit:
Puck is afraid of squirt guns (only way to discipline to a deaf cat not to drink from our drinking glasses) but gets in the shower before we do. Loki's favorite toy is Puck. Maya, all about the tennis ball
Pet’s sweetest moments:
When the first time both cats and dogs were asleep on the couch together.
I crack up when my pet:
Loki makes sure your hands are clean before he allows you to touch him, then he cleans the spot you petted when he is being cuddled, Tennyson is attention hog and thinks he is my protector even though he is 6 inches tall and i am 220 lbs at 6'1, Puck will only allow 3 pets before he bites, life revolves around Maya's tennis ball.
My pet is unique because:
All my pets are unique due to certain psychological issues(they are all crazy) but love them very much. They are a mismatched bunch of animals that make one big happy family.

My cockapoo is losing mobility in her back legs, tripping over her feet, stumbling, losing control of her bladder and a couple of times her bowels. The vet has advised it is likely a degenerative condition but we won't know for sure without numero...
Thank for the info for the baths. And yes they have said he has allergies, but to pinpoint what, I need to take him to a dermitologist (?) and I definitely can't afford that. Could be food,any indoor or outdoor allergies. I have taken him off any ...
Being single, I agree, is NO excuse. Seeing as when I was single I had way more extra money than after getting married and having kids!!
I did not grow up with cats though I do have two cats now. They are declawed, but they were declawed as kitte...
This is a group for anyone who wants to voice any opinion that they have on pit bulls. Whether you like them or not, you have a right to your own opinion . Just as long as you remember, If We Kill The Innocent, We Become The Enemy!
