Any idea what I should do for first aid -??? I honestly didn't think he could reach inside the waste paper bin - the choc is dark choc is that worse than milk choc?

Is there a site where I can buy first aid kits for dogs, cats and birds? Just for in an emergency or small injury. I always have one problem or another pop up that may be helped with the right supplies and information in the form of a first aid kit.

"first Aid" kit for a dog? what all should come in a emergency "First Aid" kit for a dog?

Theoretical medical question (emergency first aid)? Suppose you're at a picnic, and someone you don't know begins choking on a hot dog. The are unable to breath, and you attempt the Heimlich manoevre several times without success. It appears that no one else in the area is able, nor volunteering to help. After 90 seconds, the choking person's lips and skin become cyanotic (blue), indicating that they are nearing death. At the last moment, you successfully perform a tracheostomy with a fishing knife, restoring their airway (you are not a doctor, nurse, or paramedic). An ambulance arrives minutes later, taking the patient to the hospital. You later find out that during your tracheostomy, you damaged the person's pharynx, and they will be unable to speak for the rest of their life. Suppose the person sues for damages, given that they are now mute. Is it likely that they will be awarded any compensation? Why or why not? PS - This is purely theoretical. I'm just curious what might happen. spaznskitz: Do you really think so? The only two choices here would be to do nothing and let the person die, or to take the last emergency measure after both manual removal (fingers down throat) and the heimlich failed. One option is certain death, the other gives the person a chance. Besides, after lips start turning blue, you are flirting with permanent brain damage, and very close to death. I know of no ambulances that can get to some random picnic location in anywhere close to the amount of time that would be needed to save the person's life. You know that after about 4 minutes without air, you're pretty well toast, right?

Emergency kit for dogs?!? What are things every dog owner should keep around for pet emergencies? What about basic first aid?! I'm wondering in case if there's a tornado, fire, earthquake, etc. and a vet isn't an immediate option. AS much info as possible please, from our doggy section regulars, not people on here this morning that don't know what they are talking about!

Also how do I do doggie cpr? and what do I do if they are choking and can't get it out? Thanks!

Animal first aid...? Sounds like a dumb question, but I am serious. I was wondering if anyone knows of any classes or books that teaches how to deal with injuries and emergencies to animals? I know the Red Cross has a class, but couldn't find any in my area. Also a book for aid to cats and dogs. I was looking for something applying to all animals in general if possible. Thanks.

Do you know any Emergency Care Tips For Your Pet? # Emergency Care Tips For Your Pet This is not intended as a substitute for expert veterinary care. Ask your own veterinarian clinic if they hold pet first-aid classes for owners. Many are now doing this, sometimes in partnership with other clinics in their area. Heat Stroke, Hyperthermia Pets cannot tolerate high temperatures as well as people can and they rely on rapid breathing to exchange hot air for cool air. Pets' temperatures are higher than ours -- a dog and cat have an average temperature of 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Common situations and features that can predispose a pet to overheating: 1. Being left in a car in warm weather, even if the windows are left slightly open. 2. Having a muzzle on while a pet is being groomed, and/or leaving the muzzle on while a pet is put in a drying cage. 3. Short-nosed breeds such as pugs, bulldogs, boxers and Persian cats. 4. Any pet with an airway disease. 5. Being confined outside without shade or an adequate supply of fresh water. Suggested treatment when this condition occurs: 1. Mild Hyperthermia can sometimes be treated by simply removing a pet from the situation and/or environment where overheating has occurred, and placing it in a cool place in the shade or in an air-conditioned room. 2. If a pet is unsteady on its feet and you have moved it to a cooler location, you can start cooling it by placing cool water on the feet. Rubbing alcohol on the skin of your pet's stomach (with a fan blowing on the pet) can also aid in cooling. 3. While these steps are in progress, have someone call your veterinarian so that they can determine if you should bring your pet in for treatment. Note: it is very dangerous to cool an overheated pet too quickly. Never put a pet in an ice bath, or use ice cold water, unless under the direct supervision of your veterinarian. Cool water is best. The most common sign of hyperthermia is restlessness and agitation, with vigorous panting. A pet's saliva may be thick, and the gums and tongue may be bright red. Depending on the severity of the hyperthermia, the gums can also be very pale and a pet may be lying down with its head, neck, and limbs extended and thick saliva coming from the mouth and nose. Always call your veterinarian, even if the pet appears to have recovered from hyperthermia, after you have administered any of the treatments above. Your veterinarian may not want to see your pet if it has recovered, but it is always best for them to determine whether or not your pet needs to be examined. Choking Choking is caused by a foreign object being lodged in the pet's airway and adding pressure to the trachea or windpipe. To avoid a choking incident, always provide your pet with toys that are the appropriate size. Toys that are too small (relative to your pet's size) can be easily swallowed and become wedged in your pet's airway. It's important to provide supervision when an edible treat is being chewed. Some treats that dogs enjoy, such as rawhide, cow hooves, and pig ears, can break off in pieces and may not be small enough for your pet to swallow completely. Always remove strings, foil, and feathers from cat toys -- these items can be enjoyable to your cat but may potentially become caught in its throat or intestinal tract. Indications of choking: 1. Noisy and labored breathing sounds – your pet will have difficulty inhaling 2. Pawing at the nose and mouth 3. Gums may be white or blue 4. Excessive drooling 5. Unconsciousness Determine if your pet's airway is able to be cleared by performing a finger swipe of the mouth -- this is accomplished by placing your finger on the side of the pet's mouth and sliding it down and toward the center of the throat. If no foreign object or substance is removed and your pet is still having breathing difficulties, contact your veterinarian for immediate instructions and care. Do not try and perform CPR or the Heimlich method unless instructed by your veterinarian. Bleeding A physical trauma can cause pets to suffer blood loss. Regardless of what caused the trauma to your pet, immediate attention to blood loss is required. Pressure: Apply gentle pressure to the bleeding; do not remove a cloth or bandage even if it becomes saturated, simply apply additional layers. The bandage can be held in place by bandage material if you need to free your hands. Elevation can be used to aid in stopping the bleeding, but try to continue applying direct pressure to the wound. Try to keep your pet calm, and contact your veterinarian immediately, or if the situation warrants it, begin transporting your pet to the veterinarian while controlling the bleeding. Tourniquet: The use of tourniquets can be dangerous and cause damage to the limb if applied incorrectly. A tourniquet should only be used if the pet is experiencing a life threatening situation, due to the amount of blood loss that is occurring from a limb or tail. How to Move and Transport an Injured Pet An injured pet is unpredictable, regardless of its personality. When pets are in pain, they react instinctively and unpredictably and cannot be held responsible for their actions. Always take precautions to protect yourself, and your pet, from further injury when transporting to the veterinarian. An emergency muzzle' can be made from a neck tie, silk stocking, a section of linen fabric, or other strong material. Using the middle of the material, make a loop and place it around your pet's muzzle. Bring the ends under the chin and tie snuggly around the back of the head under the ears. If your pet is unable to walk, or you have determined that walking may cause further injury or damage, a blanket can be used as a transport device. Gently lift the pet onto the blanket, and grip the edges of the blanket to lift and place the pet in the vehicle. Covering your pet is important to prevent heat loss and can create a calming effect. Smaller pets can be transported in a carrier or a box (with holes large enough for air to allow for adequate breathing) with a lid. Try to minimize the amount of movement, and make your pet as comfortable as possible. Always try to contact your veterinarian, in advance, to share as many details as possible, and the estimated time that you will arrive at the clinic. Snake Bites The first thing you must do if you think your pet has been bitten by a snake is to stay calm. Do not add any additional excitement to the situation. Your pet will need to be examined to determine if and where the snake bite occurred, and there may be more than one location, so examine carefully. A constrictive bandage can be placed on the limb involved, above the bite. A bandage will need to fit firmly on the leg, but not too tightly. If possible, try to identify the snake – you should attempt to determine the size, color, the shape of the head, and if there was a rattle at the end of the snake's tail. Do not risk injury to yourself in attempting to get this information. Carry the pet to the vehicle or, if too large to carry, walk it slowly to your vehicle and go to the nearest veterinary hospital. (This may not be the hospital that you regularly use, but immediate care is required for a snake bite.) In the meantime, keep your pet as calm as possible. Contact your veterinarian if you think a snake bite may have occurred, but you are unable to find the fang marks. Your veterinarian may want to examine your pet to insure a bite mark was not accidentally overlooked. Spider Bites Veterinary treatment is required for any spider bite. Unfortunately, you will probably not know when your pet has received a spider bite. Spider bites can be painless when they occur. What you may see is a patch of skin where the hair has thinned; there may be a single hole visible, with skin discoloration around the hole. The skin may be a dark purple or black in color. There might be lameness in the limb other than where the bite occurred, as well as fever and chills. Spider bites can be life threatening to you and your pets. Research the area you live to determine which poisonous spiders are prevalent, and always examine the areas where spiders like to build nests. Contact an exterminator to remove spiders from your home.

Dog medical emergencies? Have you ever taken a dog first-aid class? Do you have a dog emergency first-aid kit? Note: I'm not talking about "do-it-yourself" in place of vet care, but knowing how to react and having the tools to get the dog to the vet in a slightly safer condition. (Bandaging bleeding, knowing the heimlich maneuver, etc.)

Do you have a first aid kit for your dog?? Even if you have an emergency vet, do you know what to do immediately if you're somewhere with your dog and he/she gets injured or sick?

Should I take legal recourse for a dog bite in IL ? Yesterday, my wife and I went out for our Sunday morning walk. From a distance, we saw a lady coming towards us with her big German Shepherd. I had a uneasy feeling about it and as they neared us, we stood some distance aside waiting for them to pass us. Then, suddenly unprovoked, dog rushed towards us and bit my wife. I immediately took her to emergency ward - where the doctor treated her with first aid/ Tetanus shots. We called up the police and they sent the Animal control team to interview the dog owner. The owner DENIED that my wife was bitten and said that their dog was being friendly!! This has thoroughly incensed me and my wife. My wife is still traumatised over the incident and she's expecting me to do something about it. What should be my next step be? Should I seek legal help? I don't want to pay any more money than what I am already paying towards the medical expenses. Responding to Faith's questions - When the dog owner asked us "Is she Okay"? I said she's not. But told her to leave right away with the dog as we didn't want to risk a 2nd attack. - What I want? I wanted an apology. And that they would offer to make good on the medical bills. We have insurance. So, our out of pocket expenses won't be much. But they chose to deny it. But an apology at this stage (48 hrs have passed) is meaningless.

Are you prepared for a real emergency? When I got home from work to day I was reading my e-mails, I had received one from the AKC. It is kind of like the magazine offering different stories and articles for you to read. One of the articles jumped out at me It was ARE YOU PREPARED, its about what to do if you need to evacuate and what you should have in your pets first aid kit. Well it has been awhile since I needed to use mine so I dug it out. I definitely need to stock up on a few things and replace some stuff. Now the article also provided a list here is the site: http://www.akc.org/pdfs/news/are_you_prepared.pdf My first aid kit is very basic I would like those of you who have first aid kits to please review this list and let me know if you would add anything to it especial if you have a substitute that might cost a little less but work just as good or if you have something in yours that you think is better. Also If you have any other sites like this one could you please share thanks in advance. I am putting this in other pets because I have several kinds(cats, birds, dogs,and horses) and I use the kit for all my animals.

FAO: Emergeny and non-emergency questions:? To all those who post questions on this site regarding sick or injured animals: If it is a routine question that is NOT considered life-threatening then fair enough. General enquiries like: "what should I feed my dog?", or "he/she's a bit off colour..." along with little cuts and scratches after a run-in with something nasty etc can be answered in Yahoo Answers. It is no different than obtaining the information required by purchasing a specific book an first aid for your pet. BUT: If your question is potentially LIFE-THREATENING, i.e: "My dogs throwing up all over the place", "has had smelly/runny poo for a week", "is finding it difficult to give birth to her puppies", is "bleeding heavily from a bad cut", or more recently posted "my dog ate razor blades - what should I do?" then in these circumstances DO NOT sit on this site waiting for answers - SEEK IMMEDIATE EXPERT ADVICE from a veterinary surgeon. NOTE: It is ILLEGAL for any animal medical proffesional (Veterinary Surgeon / Veterinary Nurse) in the UK to make or suggest a diagnosis, and/or suggest a form of treatment for the animal in question. It contravenes the RCVS (Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons) Code of practice. Minor ailments are fair enough and general advice can be given for most things. But if you (the owner) are in any doubt whatsoever regarding the severity / nature of the ailment, then again, DO NOT wait to seek advice from here, but consult your Veterinary Practice as soon as possible. Mr Ps Person: Yes I'm afraid there is always that scenario to consider as well. Too many people wanting a "quick fix - one answer suits all". The number one rule that goe before obtaining ANY animal, is can you provide the correct care for it. This should not just be answered "yeah, I can feed it and walk it and give it a roof over its' head..." but to take the cost of Veterinary treatment when appropriate / neccessary. When folk start putting money worries before the animals welfare, then it's time to consider whether or not that person should consider keepeing that animal. You can always ask the Vet to open an account or payment scheme, register with the PDSA or some similar scheme. And if, at the end of the day, you HAVE taken all this advice, and a trip to the vet has turned out to be a false alarm, at leat you have peace of mind that you acted responsibly, and given the animal the benefit of the doubt. All to often, animals can "hide" symptoms until it's sometimes too late. My apologies for the spelling mistakes... Edit 2: For "happy camper" and "Joanne"... happycamper - I'm afraid I wasn't referring to "confiscation of animals". The content of my posting is self explanatory, and stresses to the owner(s) that if they STILL cannot afford (after all means exhausted) to provide treatment for the animal in question, then it would be wise to offer it up for adoption/rehoming/sale etc. Confiscation is a last resort, and usually has resulted in the RSPCA or other humane society getting involved due to the exhaustion of financial means or a change in owners circumstances. Joanne - I'm sorry I have not read your rabbit question, but can I stress that you are not included as a "bad question poster or a bad animal owner". In fact, from what you've written here, the complete opposite in fact. You sought the help from a Vet, and (though it does happen) they were at a loss as to what to do. Thumbs up from me. And thanks to all who agreed with me. I also DO realise you can't police an open forum.

Is my dog sick from this Peanut Butter that's recalled? I am worried about my dog and was googling dogs and salmonella when I ran across a similar question here. I don't know how this works, but I signed up to get an anwer. I give my 9-month old lab the recalled peanut butter on a Kong toy, about 1-2 tablespoons everyday for a week now. He doesn't seem to be sick, but it's hard to tell. I'm not calling the Emergency Vet yet, but I am worried. I don't know what to look for. He is whiney, but I think it's just because he wants to play pletch 24/7 and I'm not aiding him in that goal. Help?

What do you think of Secure the borders now ? The vast majority of Americans desperately want our borders protected — and we want it done now. We are weary of the excuses and empty promises put forward by the Republican National Committee, the White House, and the Democratic leadership on this vital issue of national, economic, and cultural security. We do not understand why, even after the devastating attacks on September 11, our government still allows hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to cross our borders every year. We do not want our public schools burdened with a massive influx of non-English speaking children of parents who broke our laws. We are livid that our health care costs skyrocket year after year as illegal immigrants take advantage of free health care at emergency rooms across the country. We are astounded to see the resurgence of diseases we thought we had long since conquered, such as tuberculosis, carried by illegal aliens who enter the country without any medical screening. We are horrified to learn how the illegal alien invasion feeds crime and gang activity in our country. We are fed up with a government that has ignored our wishes on an issue that will transform every major aspect of our lives — imperiling America's future. Why is there such a split between elite and popular opinion on immigration and border enforcement? One big reason is that regular people pride themselves on being Americans, while the elites pride themselves on being cosmopolitan (from Greek words basically meaning citizen of the world). Additionally, the specific costs of open borders do not hit the elites as hard as they hit the working class. Case in point: illegal immigrant crime. To listen to the open border advocates and the dinosaur media, one would think that every illegal immigrant living here is like celebrity dog-trainer Cesar Millan (a.k.a. "The Dog Whisperer"). Illegally in this country — yes, but also entrepreneurial, ambitious, and law-abiding. The "local illegal does good" sob stories have gotten old fast. You'd think establishment politicians and the New York Times would be embarrassed to keep pouring it on, but they aren't. The simple fact is that illegal immigration has ravaged entire communities with increases in violent and drug-related crime, and in these areas the system is on the verge of being totally overwhelmed. Yet you would never know this by watching the evening news or reading most of the newspapers. When is the last time CBS or the New York Times, reported on violent crime committed by illegal immigrants? Perhaps they are too busy doing stories on how difficult life is for the illegal immigrant — or the rare case when deportation separates a parent from a child born in the U.S. Fox News Channel's Geraldo Rivera loves these stories. http://washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070912/EDITORIAL/109120020/1013/EDITORIAL luvmymexicanhusband is not me, it's we should

Please help, my dog is acting strange, anyone know what could be wrong? I have a 5 year old neutered male bernese mountain dog. About an hour ago, he came in from outside and was just standing in my kitchen, which is very unusual for him. He has a weird, hunched over posture, then sat reluctantly. As my parents were making dinner he showed no interest in food, while usually he is quite the begger. He then lied down, and when he went to get up he appeared to be in a lot of pain. He walked over to the door, so my mom let him out. He just stood on the porch in the same hunched over posture. Following basic dog first aid I took his respiration rate, and it was 50+ breaths a minute. I could barely find a pulse, and could not hold it long enough to take a accurate reading. I don't have a thermometer, so I can't take his temperature. Gums/eyes look normal. He is not himself at all, he rarely stands for any extended period of time, especially not in this hunched over posture. He won't even respond to his name. My mom is on the phone trying to locate an emergency vet. In the meantime, does anyone have an ideas of what is wrong? Thanks to anyone who reads and responds. He's on the way to the vet now. I did a CRT test on his gums, his capillary refill time was longer than 2 seconds, so he's probably in shock. My mom just called me from the car and said he was gagging as if he was attempting to throw up, but couldn't. So im pretty sure he has bloat =[

i need some advice from dog lovers.? ok as a pet lover and a human lover i love helping people out. before i ask the question i'm going to give a little insight on the topic. i will be purchasing a small house that will be my facility, i will be buying a fence and supplies for dogs. (collars leashes, i already have a list set up) i will also hopefully i'm applying this week for a u.s. grant to aid me in this but if i don't recieve it i'll be saving up to make this happen because i'm serious about it! but i also know i should have some money stored away incase any of the dogs has a medical emergency. i need to make somewhat a profit so i can live, this will be my fulltime+ job. i intend to work everyday atleast 10 hours a day. i will only be charging people for dog behavioral problems which i will be taking classes to learn all about dogs and why they act the way they do. i won't take any money unless i can cure the problem. my questoin revolves around this-i want to help people and dogs out, i want to train dogs to be seeing eye dogs, dogs for the handicapped and dogs for people who are sick and need a companion. i won't be charging for this. i have read that animals help the sick i've seen it, as i work in health care now. and i want to take some dogs around nursing homes to see patients but i really want to help the handicapped and train dogs to help them. again i will not even take a donation from these people i want to give back and help them. does anyone have any ideas on where i could find information on how to learn to teach dogs for the handicapped. any advice is welcome!! thanks so much. well of course they are dogs out there, like normal people with dogs with behavior problems i would try and get them to stop their bad behavior but i would only charge if i could cure whatever the problem may be. so i wouldn't make alot but i would feel so much better knowing that i helped other people that the money is only a small issue.

natural help for a UTI in a 11month old kitten? hi I have an 11mnth old kitten that we suspect has a UTI I took a sample of her wee to the vets yesterday and they asked to see her so have an appointment later today. she has stopped drinking and is only eating small amounts but this wont help as her food is dry she wont touch wet nemore. I started drip feeding her with water yesterday evening little and often to keep her fluids up but then went to bed bout 11pm. dog woke me up at 2.45am and I checked on cat she was very hot and dehydrated (phoned emergency vet for advice and they agreed for me to carry on with the drip feeding and told me how much how often so I have stayed up with her since) just wondering if there we any advice here for natural aids/complementary treatments? I have got her cranberry treats for cats/kittens. just to let u know she has had a very hard time since i rescued her with my ex... v. sickly on and off many antibiotics for unknown infect, collitis and earlier this week carbon monoxide poisoning :-(

I ask Democrates, are we going to stand for the Left wing doing what the are doing?Glenn Greenwald?

Blood shot eyes? Ok, so I took my puppy to the dog park last night (12 weeks old ) and when we got home her eyes were runny and blood shot and her little puppy belly was all blotchy red and itchy. It was late and I didn't want to call an emergency vet so I just washed her belly and put some first aid cream on it and it was gone within 10 minutes. I wiped her eyes with a warm cloth and the goobers have stopped but they are still blood shot tonight. Is this a problem? They don't seem to be bothering her but it looks horrible! Anything I can do? Any warning signs that it's really bad? What if they sting and are dry, poor girl :( Kep in mind people that the "dog park" is just a little grassy area at my aparment complex and also remember that vets are closed memorial day.

I have lots of questions? ??????????????????????????? If Pringles are "so good that once you pop, you can't stop" why do they come with a resealable lid? If there's an exception to every rule, is there an exception to that rule? Have you ever wondered why Trix are only for kids? How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone? If Practice makes perfect, and nobody's perfect, then why practice? If you accidently ate your own tougue what would it taste like? Wouldn't it be smart to make the sticky stuff on envelopes taste like chocolate? Why is it that if something says, "do not eat" on the packaging it becomes extra tempting to eat? Are children who act in rated 'R' movies allowed to see them? Is French kissing in France just called kissing? When French people swear do they say pardon my English? Why does the last piece of ice always stick to the bottom of the cup? Why did Yankee Doodle name the feather in his hat Macaroni? How come you play at a recital, but recite at a play? if a fork were made of gold would it still be considered silverware? If heat rises, then shouldn't hell be cold? Why isn't chocolate considered a vegetable, if chocolate comes from cocoa beans, and all beans are a vegetable? Why do you go back and forth to town if you really must go forth before you go back? If you stole a pen from a bank then would it still be considered a bank robbery? Why can't you get a tan on your palms? Why do dogs sniff other dogs butts to say hello, why dont they just bark in their face or something? Why do companies offer you "free gifts?" Since when has a gift NOT been free? If something "goes without saying," why do people still say it? You know the expression, "Don't quit your day job?" Well what do you say to people that work nights? Why do you get in trouble for blocking an exit when you're standing in the doorway? In case of an emergency, wouldn't you run out, too, therefore NOT blocking the exit? Why is it when some products you have to turn it upside down to read the directions, and the directions say do not turn upside down? Do they have girs bathrooms in gay bars? Why is toilet bowl cleaning liquid only blue? Why is it when we talk to God we are praying, but when God talks to us we are put into the loony bin? Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here and drink what comes out"? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Why do we wash behind our ears? Who really looks there? Why don't the hairs on your arms get split ends? Why is it illegal to park in a handicapped parking space but its ok to use a handicapped toilet? Why are the commercials for cable companies on cable but not on regular television? Don't they want the people without cable to buy the cable? Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’? If you were a genie and a person asked you this wish, "I wish you would not grant me this wish" what would you do? Why do people say, "You can't have your cake and eat it too"? Why would someone get cake if they can't eat it? can bald people get lice? Do vampires get AIDS? Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp which no decent human would eat? heres some more questions i got: Why is most lunchmeat bigger than the bread? Is there a certain temperature at which it stops being qualified as cold? At what temperature does it qualify as hot? If you were a pastor, and you were getting married, would you hire a pastor, or would you do the wedding yourself? Why is Joey short for Joe, when Joey has more letters? Can someone have their head in the clouds and be down-to-earth at the same time? If a person suffered from amnesia and then was cured would they remember that they forgot? If you died with braces on would they take them off? Why do mattresses have designs on them when they're always covered with sheets? If a singer sings their own song during a karaoke party, is it considered karaoke?

Is it wrong to contact poison control for animal related problems?... Shouldn't be.? My sisters chiwawa climbed under her bed and eat about five pieces of excel gum (the wax paper kind), so as you can imagine i was worried about what might happen to the dog. so i got out the yellow pages, and decided id try poison control in montreal canada. Well, i explained to the guy what happened, and he actually got mad at me for calling poison control and told me its only for human related problems. when i asked him if he could refer me to a vet emergency number, he told me it wasn't his job to do that, then he hung up....... i have to say i'm very ticked off by this, cause he couldn't care less about the dog. what do you guys think i should do about this, the guy wouldn't even refer me to get help. I'm sure your thinking "maybe you should have looked up a vet number first?" and i suppose i could have, but its not what happen. so any advice? its ridiculous that a help center denies you any sort of aid, even a vets number.

giving your cat or dog a pill? it"s long but it"s a cracker?? 1) Pick cat up and cradle it in the crook of your left arm as if holding a baby.

I ask Democrates, are we going to stand for the Left wing doing what the are doing?Glenn Greenwald?

Blood shot eyes? Ok, so I took my puppy to the dog park last night (12 weeks old ) and when we got home her eyes were runny and blood shot and her little puppy belly was all blotchy red and itchy. It was late and I didn't want to call an emergency vet so I just washed her belly and put some first aid cream on it and it was gone within 10 minutes. I wiped her eyes with a warm cloth and the goobers have stopped but they are still blood shot tonight. Is this a problem? They don't seem to be bothering her but it looks horrible! Anything I can do? Any warning signs that it's really bad? What if they sting and are dry, poor girl :( Kep in mind people that the "dog park" is just a little grassy area at my aparment complex and also remember that vets are closed memorial day.

oh my god, an episode of e-vet interns, "things pets swollow", helped save my dog! what do you all think? ok, so last night mom and i where having some ribs for supper and my mom thaught that as long as we watched her, we would quickly get the bone part away from her. well when mom went to grab it the dog picked it up and swolled it whole. so i am like to my mom "what do we do? she just swolled it!" and she thaught we could waight till morning. but something did not feel right 2 me. so i went in to my vet mode ( i am not a vet yet. planing on being one). i am certified in pet 1st aid. so i went to get all my e- vet books. thats when i remembered the episode of e-vet interns and rem. the case on the dog that ate 18 pigs ears. i rem. the side effects they listed and how serious i could be. so i told mom "MOM WE HAVE TO CALL THE EMERGENCY VET HOSPITAL NOW!" because they only have a 2 hr time window before something happens. sure enough they said to bring her in and they injucted her with some malimorephine(can't spell) and she threw it all up. what do you all think of wat i did? was it good?

I have lots of questions? ??????????????????????????? If Pringles are "so good that once you pop, you can't stop" why do they come with a resealable lid? If there's an exception to every rule, is there an exception to that rule? Have you ever wondered why Trix are only for kids? How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone? If Practice makes perfect, and nobody's perfect, then why practice? If you accidently ate your own tougue what would it taste like? Wouldn't it be smart to make the sticky stuff on envelopes taste like chocolate? Why is it that if something says, "do not eat" on the packaging it becomes extra tempting to eat? Are children who act in rated 'R' movies allowed to see them? Is French kissing in France just called kissing? When French people swear do they say pardon my English? Why does the last piece of ice always stick to the bottom of the cup? Why did Yankee Doodle name the feather in his hat Macaroni? How come you play at a recital, but recite at a play? if a fork were made of gold would it still be considered silverware? If heat rises, then shouldn't hell be cold? Why isn't chocolate considered a vegetable, if chocolate comes from cocoa beans, and all beans are a vegetable? Why do you go back and forth to town if you really must go forth before you go back? If you stole a pen from a bank then would it still be considered a bank robbery? Why can't you get a tan on your palms? Why do dogs sniff other dogs butts to say hello, why dont they just bark in their face or something? Why do companies offer you "free gifts?" Since when has a gift NOT been free? If something "goes without saying," why do people still say it? You know the expression, "Don't quit your day job?" Well what do you say to people that work nights? Why do you get in trouble for blocking an exit when you're standing in the doorway? In case of an emergency, wouldn't you run out, too, therefore NOT blocking the exit? Why is it when some products you have to turn it upside down to read the directions, and the directions say do not turn upside down? Do they have girs bathrooms in gay bars? Why is toilet bowl cleaning liquid only blue? Why is it when we talk to God we are praying, but when God talks to us we are put into the loony bin? Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here and drink what comes out"? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Why do we wash behind our ears? Who really looks there? Why don't the hairs on your arms get split ends? Why is it illegal to park in a handicapped parking space but its ok to use a handicapped toilet? Why are the commercials for cable companies on cable but not on regular television? Don't they want the people without cable to buy the cable? Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’? If you were a genie and a person asked you this wish, "I wish you would not grant me this wish" what would you do? Why do people say, "You can't have your cake and eat it too"? Why would someone get cake if they can't eat it? can bald people get lice? Do vampires get AIDS? Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp which no decent human would eat? heres some more questions i got: Why is most lunchmeat bigger than the bread? Is there a certain temperature at which it stops being qualified as cold? At what temperature does it qualify as hot? If you were a pastor, and you were getting married, would you hire a pastor, or would you do the wedding yourself? Why is Joey short for Joe, when Joey has more letters? Can someone have their head in the clouds and be down-to-earth at the same time? If a person suffered from amnesia and then was cured would they remember that they forgot? If you died with braces on would they take them off? Why do mattresses have designs on them when they're always covered with sheets? If a singer sings their own song during a karaoke party, is it considered karaoke?

oh my god, an episode of e-vet interns, "things pets swollow" helped save my dog. what do u guys think? ok, so last night mom and i where having some ribs for supper and my mom thaught that as long as we watched her, we would quickly get the bone part away from her. well when mom went to grab it the dog picked it up and swolled it whole. so i am like to my mom "what do we do? she just swolled it!" and she thaught we could waight till morning. but something did not feel right 2 me. so i went in to my vet mode ( i am not a vet yet. planing on being one). i am certified in pet 1st aid. so i went to get all my e- vet books. thats when i remembered the episode of e-vet interns and rem. the case on the dog that ate 18 pigs ears. i rem. the side effects they listed and how serious i could be. so i told mom "MOM WE HAVE TO CALL THE EMERGENCY VET HOSPITAL NOW!" because they only have a 2 hr time window before something happens. sure enough they said to bring her in and they injucted her with some malimorephine(can't spell) and she threw it all up. what do you all think of wat i did? was it good?

Is it wrong to contact poison control for animal related problems?... Shouldn't be.? My sisters chiwawa climbed under her bed and eat about five pieces of excel gum (the wax paper kind), so as you can imagine i was worried about what might happen to the dog. so i got out the yellow pages, and decided id try poison control in montreal canada. Well, i explained to the guy what happened, and he actually got mad at me for calling poison control and told me its only for human related problems. when i asked him if he could refer me to a vet emergency number, he told me it wasn't his job to do that, then he hung up....... i have to say i'm very ticked off by this, cause he couldn't care less about the dog. what do you guys think i should do about this, the guy wouldn't even refer me to get help. I'm sure your thinking "maybe you should have looked up a vet number first?" and i suppose i could have, but its not what happen. so any advice? its ridiculous that a help center denies you any sort of aid, even a vets number.

Why does my dog suddenly pee in her crate???!!!? I have a 14 week old puppy. We have had her since she was 5 weeks. We keep her in her crate when we are not watching her to help aid in house training. Of course she has accidents on the carpet, about 1 a day, and she peed in her cage a few times when we first got her (which goes against how it should be according to everything I have read), but then she went about 4-5 weeks of NOT going in her cage ( I work at night so if I worked the night before then I get up and let her out every 3 hours), in fact she even went 12 hours once on accident due to a family emergency and didn't do anything in her cage. Why is she all of a sudden for the past week peeing in her cage up to 3 times a day????, even if she just went out 25 minutes earlier. She has the same water available as she always has (just one of those water bottles to lick while in her crate) I don't think she has an infection, the pee is clear yellow. I don't get it, I am at my wits end!

oh my god, an episode of e-vet interns, "things pets swollow", helped save my dog! what do you all think? ok, so last night mom and i where having some ribs for supper and my mom thaught that as long as we watched her, we would quickly get the bone part away from her. well when mom went to grab it the dog picked it up and swolled it whole. so i am like to my mom "what do we do? she just swolled it!" and she thaught we could waight till morning. but something did not feel right 2 me. so i went in to my vet mode ( i am not a vet yet. planing on being one). i am certified in pet 1st aid. so i went to get all my e- vet books. thats when i remembered the episode of e-vet interns and rem. the case on the dog that ate 18 pigs ears. i rem. the side effects they listed and how serious i could be. so i told mom "MOM WE HAVE TO CALL THE EMERGENCY VET HOSPITAL NOW!" because they only have a 2 hr time window before something happens. sure enough they said to bring her in and they injucted her with some malimorephine(can't spell) and she threw it all up. what do you all think of wat i did? was it good?

Would you hire this babbysitter? Well I am looking for a babysitter and I think that 11 years old isold enough she is almost 12 she e-mailed me back very nice and polite saying that she can cook and clean and do household chores while my children are napping or babies are sleeping what do you think? Her craigslist post says this: ---- Baby-sitting / Mother's helper AVAIBLE! *veerry reasonable rates* (town removed) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to: e-mail removed for confedentialality [Errors when replying to ads?] Date: 2009-04-26, 9:02PM PDT Hi Everyone!, My name is Kelly, I'm an 11 and 3/4 yearold girl looking for a job. I really love babies and kids, they are my life! I am very good with kids and they love me, I have lots of experience. I have been through a few emergencies while babysitting and they were handled just fine and everyone was safe. I attended a safe-sitters 2day class and know CPR and First Aid and my mother is a nurse at Kootnaei Medical Center and my dad is an electrician, they have both taught me lots. Creativity is one of my biggest traits and if I babysat you'r kids we would be doing fun creative things like crafts, projects, sewing/creating clothes, baking,getting a cardboard box and cutting it open to make our own T.V. show, write a play and performing it, making a windchimeand many more things to do that the children would like and would be safe. I am very interested in music, art and acting so alot of our activities would be based around those things. I play violin, piano and gutair and would love to teach children how to play those instruments. I also really like sports like next year I'm going to be on STING proffesional soccer and I really like to play any sport. If you'r child doesn't like those things I am more than willing to change what wewould be doing. Before I babysit you'r kids my mother is going to come with me to meet you and most importantly, me meeting you'r kids. I was trained to handle almost all emergencies and I am a Red-Cross certified babysitter, I know that me and your children/infants/babies will have an FANTASTIC time together! I know that since I am 11 my age makes it look like I'm too young or something but It is kind of in the genes of my family that we just love taking care of people. I have babysat my neighbor's baby and kids and I often am watching my baby cousins home alone, sometimes overnight. If you asked any members of my family they would say I am very mature and responsible. If you have alot of kids and just need my help to do chores, yardwork, cook, entertain you'r kids, repair anything, walk you'r dog(s), do poop-patrol or anything else I can be you'r mothers-helper. My fees would be $4.00 an hour to babysit or being you'r mothers-helper but if you can't afford that than just pay what you can even if that is nothing e-mail me if you are interested! Thank you! Katy me 2 years ago with some awesome kids I watched over the summer: [IMG]http://i731.photobucket.com/albums/ww319/Katyealy/l_bd03b0d5a05c4d7aa0274582d21cd87c.jpg[/IMG] a picture of me today: [IMG]http://i731.photobucket.com/albums/ww319/Katyealy/katy1.jpg[/IMG] ------- she seems pretty, smart , responsible and verymature and it loooks like she would be a great babysitter what do you think?

Jacobsdad - I posted it already - its what reminded me of it, just waiting for all of the thumbs down!

Need Help! A vets second opinion. Anyone who has an animal with issues? So I adopted a cat from a foster home this past January. The cat (Charlie) was a little run down and had diarrhea, but I was assured the cat was healthy and was just a little stressed out from the drive to and from the store. 1 week later, his diarrhea has not cleared so I brought him to the vet and she prescribed a series of meds, she believed it was a parasite. 2 weeks of meds still no changes. So we went on a new series of meds. She kept saying it was because he was from a cattery. During all this we tried the yogurt, boiled chicken and rice, enzymes, pumpkin, etc Then after, still no changes. My vet wanted to continue on more and more and more meds so I went to another vet. Vet 2: She prescribed the Charlie go on Hill’s Diet w/d. The poo cleared a little but far from normal. So I we accepted that and thought well this is what it is and I am gonna try to make the best of it. With his food we were doing a little bit of Imodium and children’s benadryl. Meanwhile, continuing with tests. End of March: Charlie was struggling in the litter box, and I was in there trying to calm him down. All of the sudden his butt fell out of his hole. I freaked out and called my vet she said it was ok as long as it went back in- and it did 15 mins later. The next day it fell out again. He had an “anal prolapse” so later that night we had to put him in emergency surgery. –Introducing Vet #3. She gained an immediate interest in Charlie mostly because of his size and wonderful demeanor. He is just about 4 lbs. and almost 2 years old. And we tried yet more tests. Ok fast forward 5-6 weeks, Anus is healthy and looking good but still random poo all over the house, He uses the litter box when he can. But sometimes he’ll be sitting there or sleeping and fart and poo will come out. Here is where I am and I don’t know what to do!!?? After tests and tests and more tests—no one can figure out what is wrong with this cat! One of the tests revealed his pancreas is functioning at (-0.08). So he was prescribed “Pancrezyme”. He has been on this for 11 days, but still very loose stool. One thing my vet said that was really weird to her was, normally when an animal has pancreitous they will have LOW B-12 and HIGH Folate. But his Folate was Very Low, almost non existent. So to aid in the Pancrezyme medication I am giving him a B supplement. Does anyone out there know of this? Has anyone had or heard of issues in a cat or dog that I can bring to Vet’s attention? I am at such a loss, and I really want to give this cat some sort of quality of life. Please help.
