Pet Parents

My parents and I are getting a dachshund-pitbull mix puppy next Thursday and we arent sure of what type of food to get him or how much we should feed him; any tips?

My dog ate about 3 or 4 squares of dark Belgium chocolate and my parents don't know. She seems fine but only are then half and hour ago at about 8.20 and I need to know what to do before 10

My old black lab won't stand up or move and is breathing heavily and I think she's dying. I'm 17 and my parents won't take her to a vet so I can't get her any help or put her down. What do I do?

Hi. I have a 2 month old puppy. I got a little scratch on my toe but I am not sure if it was her nail or tooth. What should I do? Her rabies vaccine is scheduled next week. Btw my pets aren't exposed to any stray dogs in our area and her parents are vaccinated.

my sister adopted a rescued dog two years ago who was abused so much by his former owner she lives alone & doesn't have much time to take him out on walks, also not many friends visit her so he isn't used to having people around now she came to spend a month at our house,i live with my parents and other sister, & she brought the dog with her some times he's friendly but other times he's not, he trust my father though he also bit me today when i tried to pet him any way i can get him to trust me?

My senior dog (15 year old German Shepherd) has a lot of difficulty moving and getting around. I often have to pick her up because she can’t get up and she seems to get dizzy often. She belongs to my parents so there’s not a whole lot of decisions I can make. My dad says it’s just old age but I worry about her. What should I do?

I have a 16 year old Roosevelt terrier.......she is having bad coughing fits and a horrible smell to her breath.......she has had three episodes in 4 days where she coughs really bad the falls over her heart is stopping for a few seconds to up to a minute....is there anything that can be done or is it time to let her go join her parents on the rainbow bridge?

My cat is a 4 year old female. When she was younger, my parents sent her off to get spayed. Things were fine after that. For 2 years she’s been showing signs of being in heat. Excessive vocalization, peeing everywhere, rubbing on everything. I’m not sure what to do for her.

I'm 99% positive that my 11 year old Chocolate Lab has Cushing's Disease. Are there any at home remedies that will help him? My parents don't think he should go to the vet, so I need help to help him. Please help and give me any and all information that you can. Thanks! -Lacy

My budgie just laid an egg yesterday and I don't know how to take care of eggs so I need to make sure they don't hatch. How? Can I separate the parents right away before all the eggs are laid? If I separate them and I get rid of the egg will she lay more?

Is there another alternative for neutering of male dogs? Some injection ir medication which can be given when he's in heat. My parents especially my grandmother is against the idea of neuter another being. Please suggest if there is any other way. And also how to know if or when my dog develops issues with harmonal imbalance. Thank you

Hi, i am really worried about my cat. She's been an outdoor cat her whole life but recently ive noticed her shacking her head and hissing, as though she was in a lot of discomfort and scratching her ear and rubbing her ear of thing constantly. I keep saying it to my parents but they're insisting she's fine.
