Salmonella Concerns with Backyard Chickens

By Jess (TF Editor)

Salmonella Concerns with Backyard ChickensMany people have started keeping chickens and other fowl at home. They are a great source of fresh eggs, don't take much special care, and can be quite funny and charming. However, you should be careful when you or your children are handling them. Most chickens naturally carry salmonella.

For those of you who just acquired a puppy or are planning to get one soon, please be sure to research the breed that you are interested in. You may not realize it, but not every breed is suitable for every person, family and lifestyle...
Inexpensive Doggy Sweater
Is your doggy cold, but you just can't justify spending $25 on a "special" sweater? Go to your local GoodWill and pick up a toddler sweatshirt cut off the arms an inch down from the shoulder seam and "viola" you have a doggy sweatshirt.

Today's Questions
Caring for Cats While on Holiday
We are leaving for a month long holiday in December. We have 2 cats, the small one is generally a very nervous cat. We have people to check on them daily. Now we thought maybe we would let the domestic worker (which they are very use to) maybe come twice a week so that the cats can play outside a bit.
Repairing Carpet and Flooring Ruined by Dog Pee
My 5 dogs are house trained, have been for years, they are 15 years old, miniature Poodles. I installed a doggie door a few years ago to make it easy for them to go relieve themselves. For the past month, I don't know if all of them are peeing and pooping in the house while I'm at work.
Shih Tzu Puppy Won't Eat Kibbles
I have a 7 week old Shih Tzu puppy. I have had him for 1 week already and he won't eat dry food, but he will try to eat my cat's dry food. What can I do to get him to eat his food? I tried mixing it with wet food, but he will lick the wet food and not eat the dry one. I tried soaking it in water, but that didn't work.
Puppy Is Peeing on His Bed
I got my 4 month old Pit Bull puppy about 3 weeks ago. Now lately he started urinating on his bed. He literally stands and just let's loose. He knows it is wrong because he immediately runs away. This is the 3rd time he has done it. I am really not sure what to do.
Old Dog Pees When She Lays Down
My dog is 13 years old. She has been peeing where she lays down and not knowing she is going. I don't know what this means.

Black Tar in Dog's Ear
My dog has black stuff in his ears. After 3 vet trips and meds it's still there. I can not afford to play games with vets. Why can they not fix the problem on the first visit? Anyone know of any home remedies that will help?
Protecting Mother Dog with Puppies Infected with Parvo
I have 8 puppies from a litter and two of them have parvovirus for sure. One is currently at the vet and the other is separated from all of the other dogs. I am really concerned if the mother who is 3 years old and has only been vaccinated at 6 weeks old and deworming, could catch this and how what'd be her chances of surviving it?
