Rosie (Chihuahua Min-Pin Mix)

By kathiseverts

Rosie (Chihuahua Min-Pin Mix)That is kind of a long story. On April 16, 2016 I was walking my 10 y/o Chihuahua and a car came speeding down the street and hit him. Obviously, I was devastated. I knew I would want another baby, but thought I would wait awhile.

Save on Cat Toys

Disposing of Unused Pet Food
If you were to buy a brand of pet food that your pet won't eat for whatever reason. Don't toss it out in the trash, look in your phonebook to see if your city/town has a no kill animal shelter. Take it there.
Making Cat Scratching Area
Making a cat scratching area is easy if you use an old bath mat and tie it around an old log or a cinderblock or brick. These make good door holders too! They love to scratch on these.

Cat Keeps Going into Heat
My cat has been going into heat every 4-5 days since January 10th and she stays in heat between 6-8 days. This time it has already been 9 days and I am worried. I'm trying to get her spayed, but by the time I make an appointment when she comes out of heat she is back in it by the time of the appointment. She is really worrying me. Is this normal? Can she get spayed while she is in heat?
Puppy Recovering from Parvo Not Eating
My puppy Peppa has parvo. It has been three days now and she drinks water fine, but I can't get her to eat anything. I need help on how to feed her.
Rescue Dog Won't Poop Outside
My new rescue refuses to poop outside. We've only had him for two days, but we will walk him and he will come right in and poop in the house. What can I do to get him to go outside?
My Boxer Won't Eat
I have a 4-5 year old Boxer and he won't eat his food. I have tried worming him and nothing seems to work. I am scared to lose him because he is my best friend and we share the same birthday. Please help.
Caring for Puppies with Parvo
I had 7 puppies; 5 of them have died from parvo. Please help me with the last 2. One died at first from parvo without me having any idea about what was wrong with it until a vet told me he died from parvo. I quickly took the rest to a vet 2 weeks ago, but 4 died eventually.
Feeding a One Month Old Puppy
I have a 1 month old puppy that doesn't want milk anymore and wants to eat my older dog's dry food. I've already tried to mix in some puppy chow with her milk, but she won't take the milk she only wants dry food. What should I do?
