Is this a sign of bad health?
I have a 13 year old black lab. Despite being about 10lbs overweight, he seems to be in very good shape. However, he has been drinking about 5 times the amount of water that he usually does in the summer time, and we are worried that this could possibly mean he has something wrong with him.

This one kitten that i’m interested in is all white. The only thing is I don’t have enough money to take care of a constantely sick cat. So if white cats are more prone to health problems could someone tell me if they are and what kind of sickness they are more likely to get. (ex. deafness, blindness…etc.)

I believe most 10 year olds are able to spell the word dying.

Pug owners, is this true?

I have an 9 year old cat. He has gone thru alot of his “lives” already, even only has one eye. He doesn’t jump up on counter tops anymore and doesn’t like me touching his hind legs anymore. Anyone have cats that stopped jumping at an old age…how long after did your cat pass after he or she stopped jumping up on furniture?

I believe my dog like me as much as my mum, but no-where near as much as one of my brothers.

She does obey most of my commands and is very compassionate towards me, however whenever that brother is home she’s stuck to him like glue. I am currently not working and so have lots of time to spend with my dog.

I cannot get the dog to go on walks with me though – that brother always has to come with me. And because of that my dog is starting to put on some weight.

Also my dog keeps licking her paws for hours and sometimes it seems she’s chewing them and she makes them bleed. The vet says she’s allergic to something but nothing he gives her works.

Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

Help! I’m stuck in a routine from hell! I’m 23, live w/ my parents and am losing my mind!
I’m sort of a workoholic cuz it keeps my mind off other stuff such as:
My dog is sick.
Family health problems.
Work problems.
Girl problems.
Barely any social life.
Any clubs or groups I can join to meet more people and get more involved?
Any activities I can do to relieve stress or get my mind off these damn things!?

Anyway, in a different book, recently published, I read that all Epilepsy is called the same thing and that there are no different words to describe this.
I am believing the more officiant book.
I’ve heard that you shouldn’t breed two Blue Merle Australian Shepherds, Border Collies or Collies together because it causes defects and more problems. I have been searching, but no website or book tells me why this is. I am just assuming that it has something to do with what Colors made the Merle and what gene they would have had to have in them to get to blue and grey Colors together, along with white and hints of tan. Am I assuming right?
Some websites have said that the Australian Shepherd was bred in California, others say it was bred else where, and registered in California. I’m not sure what to believe as the books say this as well – mixed ways and such. Where did the Aussie originate from? I know it wasn’t Australia.
And also…
Is it ok to keep an Aussie with a cat?
Will my Doberman try to pick on the Aussie? (She doesn’t like the shape of Aussies or Borders)
Is it OK to keep an Aussie if you have three dogs with it? I was thinking maybe it would pick up some of their bad habits?
Do Aussies NEED to be walked every day, or will having a run up the field with my other dogs be OK on some days?
I just need to know this as I can’t find out this stuff on sites or in books.
