Linda asks…

What Kind of dog breed should i look for?

my wife and I rescue animals. In the rural area we live in, that means cats. Lots of them. Anyway, we have coyotes, fox, and stray dogs in our area as well. I need to get a puppy and raise it to love the cats as if it is one, while at the same time, it needs to have the heart of a lion to protect it’s “family” while never turning on them. It’s a dilemna indeed. Thanks in advance for your help. I really appreciate it.

Your Questions About Dog’s Life Ending

Paul asks…

How do you shorten overgrown toenails on dogs?

My boyfriend didn’t cut his dog’s toenails very often and the vein grew in far. Even if I cut it as short as I can without hitting the vein, they are still long. How do you reverse this? Is there a way? Or is this poor little dog doomed to have excessively long toenails for the rest of her life?

admin answers:

Keep on cutting them little by little, every chance you get. As soon as you see that there’s nail that you can cut without quicking the dog, then by all means, cut it. Buy some styptic powder (also called quik stop), in case you do end up cutting too far. The quik (or vein) will retract little by little as you cut.

If the nails are too overgrown and causing the dog pain or making the dog unable to walk right – or even if you think that the process will take more than a year, then head for the vet. They are able to cut a dog’s nails comfortably short – for a price (remember, if you can’t afford it it’s okay, keep on cutting the dog’s nails whenever possible).

The procedure is pretty simple. They’ll anesthesize the dog and cut the nails, including the quik and quickly laser the quik shut to prevent bleeding.

Good luck!

Richard asks…

Why do people say suicide is never right?

They say it’s never right to kill yourself, nothing is worth it. Really? Any amount of suffering is worth living for? Any atrocity imaginable should be lived through just for the sake of having a life, regardless of it’s quality or conditions? If it’s selfish for me to die just to end my own suffering than isn’t it selfish for others to ask me to continue it just for them? We put dog’s we can’t help out of their misery and call it humane.. but it’s not humane for humans?

admin answers:

It’s quitting. Plain and simple. Personally, I have no respect for a quitter. Life is a roller coaster and it is constantly going to go up and down and from side to side. If a person feels they are unable to handle it, then they are weak and not trying hard enough. Yes, it is selfish for someone to take their life because of the emotional scarring they leave behind for their loved ones.
Some religions believe it is a sin. Personally, I don’t give a rat’s A** about religion. Not into fairy tales that destroy humanity. But that’s a diff subject.
Putting a dog down is not the dog’s choice, so it is incomparable. Sometimes, when an animal is put down, it’s not out of mercy for the animal, but rather because of a financial burden to nurse that animal back to health. I worked at a veterinary hospital for years. People let go of their pet’s lives because they cannot afford to keep them going. Sad, but true.

Helen asks…

How do I clean my Dog’s poop out of the ground, even after it’s been sitting there for several months.?

This is my first dog ever in my entire life! So I’ve had her since October 1, 2012. So anyway, I haven’t been cleaning my Dog’s poop up everytime she poops regularly for awhile, due to migraines, it hurts to bend over. Then when it was time to clean it up, it snowed and that happened a few times before I cleaned it all up a few days ago. When it snowed and it froze to the ground, I tried shoveling it up, but it kept hitting my face! Eeeew! So I had to wait for it to thaw enough to pick it up. My question is: Even though the dog poop has been there for a couple of weeks, frozen and what not, are the worms that dogs have automatically in their poop, is there a chance to get them out of the ground so it’s safe for my kids to play when it’s nice out? Or do I have to buy this special stuff to kill them so my kids can be safe in the yard. I didn’t know that the worms in their poop could be contracted by bare feet! So now that I know that, how do I fix this problem? I ONLY WANT “PROFESSIONAL HELP” OR “FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE” not lectures!! It was a “Lack of knowledge” thing not a stupid thing.

admin answers:

It would depend upon what type of ground we are speaking of. IF it is dirt…then the worms would have gone into the dirt in the beginning…and so, yes they could still be there. Only worms that go thru the soles of the feet are hook worms. Did your dog have hook worm? Have you had him wormed yet? A place where a dog has defecated over and over is NOT a good place for kids to play. Maybe you could use the hose when weather permits…..Bleach will kill hookworm larvae. You need to find out what kind of worm your dog had or has. IF he still has them, get him wormed, but still the fecal matter needs to be in another place other than where your children play.

If the dog has tapeworms, they can be picked up by the kid’s hands….and put in their mouth. BIG problem. So, get the dog checked, bleach the area w/a garden sprayer on the end of your hose, let that sit for a few days, then hose the area down well. Don’t let the dog use the area where your kids will be playing for his toilet.

Your Questions About Rough Collie Shedding

Helen asks…

Would acupuncture help or even cure my allergies dogs?

Ok, so I really want a dog! The breed I would like to get would probably be a Rough Collie. I know they are heavy shedders and are not the best for allergies but I really want one. Would acupuncture help or not?

admin answers:

Depends on how bad your allergies are. Acupuncture will help some but you would have to be going every week. That’s a lot of money to spend when you have other options. I’d find a breed that doesn’t shed so much (like a poodle)

William asks…

Why is my Rough Coat collie shedding in the Minnesota cold?

I don’t understand why this is happening. It is February and in Minnesota; February could be the coldest month of the winter and we just came out of a deep freeze. Pepper was out in the very cold during the day and in the house at night. The other dogs I have are not shedding like she is, she is shedding like it is April.

admin answers:

It may be the fact that she’s going in and out so much. The heat from the house may be drying out her coat. Perhaps you could keep her indoors instead of leaving her outside during the day? I’m not suggesting leaving her out at night by any means!

The other thing you may want to do is add some omega oil in her food. One of my labs is blowing her coat now. It’s odd because the other 3 are not and my mixed breed isn’t either. Only the one. I’ve upped the fish oil caps in her food.

My dogs are all house dogs and only go out to potty and play. We’ve started running a humidfier in the house as well. It’s really dry in the house and maybe it’s just affecting her worse than anyone else.

Mary asks…

What should the grooming routine for a rough coated collie and what are the best products?

I’m a little intimidated by all the fur. I’m afraid I won’t get all the shampoo out or hurt the coat by brushing it wrong.

admin answers:

A rough collie should only be bathed when absolutely necessary. And with any long-coated breed, you just need to keep rinsing them until the poor dog almost feels like he’s water logged! What’s easiest with a coated breed is if you dilute the shampoo with about 1/3 water so it pours through the coat more evently. You’ll find it’s going to make it a bit easier to gently massage through the coat, then rinse out.

As for brushing, you won’t hurt his coat! You need a good quality pin brush which is for line brushing the whole dog. You start at whatever end you prefer and with the dog lying on his side, brush in a “line”, one small section at a time, being very careful to get down to the skin.

You also need a good slicker, but this brush is used only to tease out mats. You need to be careful with it because it can cause slicker burn if you’re rough on the dog’s skin.

It’s not at all hard to groom a collie, but if you could get your dog’s breeder or someone else with a coated dog to show you the line brushing technique, it would make things much simpler. Brush him out once or twice a week (oftener during shedding season) and you don’t need to feel intimidated by his coat!

Your Questions About Dogs Life Jackets

Lisa asks…

What is the best dog life jacket?

I have looked at several online, but I haven’t found anyone who has compared them against each other. I have looked at the Ruff Wear, EzyDog, and Kyjen Outward Hound jackets. I’m looking for personal experience with these jackets or any other life jacket you think is the best. By the way, the jacket would be for an Australian Shepherd who is about 50 pounds.

admin answers:

I have a great life jacket for my 73 lb. German Shepherd.

It’s by Salus.

Http://www.salusmarine.com/product/skippy.html

It’s been used a lot and is still doing great. It works well and if you need to lift him into the boat it has handles on top for that purpose. This is a higher quality life jacket and costs more than the cheap garbage (Outward Hound) from bix box pet stores (that were broken and falling apart while still on the shelf!)

The size for our dog (I believe Large) was about $100.

I highly recommend Salus life jackets for dogs.

Your Questions About Rough Collie For Sale

Sandra asks…

how to find a reputable breeder?

I was wondering, how do I find a reputable breeder. I know they won’t place an ad in the classifieds but I don’t know where else to look. I do not trust internet sites selling dogs because I doubt a good breeder would place a puppy for sale on the internet.

I know good breeder usually have you place a down payment on one before they even breed their dog.

admin answers:

Decide what breed of dog you want.
Then contact either the parent club, or your local club-which will be a member of the Local Club.

EXAMPLE-Say you want a Rough Collie

You could contact the Collie Club of America or one of the local Clubs

Say you live in Northern California- The Northern California Collie Club.

Then you will get a breeder referral from them.

This will be for a reputable breeder that is a member in good standing in the club.

ADD: ANY BACKYARD BREEDING CROOK can advertise in magazines such as Dog Fancy or even the AKC website. They do NOT SCREEN BREEDERS.

AND ANYONE can put up a website.

Good lord, do NOT let that be how you pick a breeder.

Only go to a website if you have a referral FROM the breed club.

Mandy asks…

my dog has liver disease/infection, what is her prognosis?

She is nine years old and has been very unwell. After lots of tablets (antibiotics and liver pills) she has improved, no longer jaundiced and eating without being sick. I am still worried that she may relapse or even have a tumor. Has anyone had any experiance of this with their dog?

admin answers:

His prognosis is likely pretty grim. Is the disease or infection limited ONLY to the liver? It rarely ever stays that way if it is. The liver has a few functions, one of them being as a filter for your dog’s blood. But, the liver is only a secondary filter for the kidneys. When a dog is having liver difficulties, he almost always is having kidney problems as well…and that’s a whole other ballgame. Be careful with the medications you give her, even if they ARE prescribed by a vet. It has been my experience that vets don’t know everything and sometimes they just make things worse. With the advent of the internet, there is no reason not to begin research on your dog’s condition and take a proactive stance in his care. Once you really get into doing the research, you’ll be suprised to find out what your vet is doing wrong. For instance, how many of those medications he prescribed are metabolized and filtered through the liver, which is already compromised and doesn’t need the extra workload?? Did he mention anything about natural herbs, like Milk Thistle, and it’s benefits for the liver? Although I really like my vet, I will never EVER take his word as being final. No vet is God, and none of them know everything there possibly is to know. Nor do I expect them to. When my dog is ill, I hit the internet and the books and I have come across many discrepancies between them and my vet. I dont take the final word of human doctors either. Put your computer to good use and do some research. Find out what you can do to prevent a relapse and to keep your dog comfortable as long as possible. Vets dont have the vested interest in your dog that you do, and they dont lose any sleep when another dog dies. I’m sure there are many who vets who truly care, but NONE of them can possibly care as much about your dog as you do. It is ultimately your responsibility to make sure your dog continues with a reasonably good quality of life, and you cannot shirk this responsibility off on your vet. Good Luck.

What is the name of this song and who sings it?

My brother is looking for the title of this song and who sings it. These are part of the lyrics that he remembers : “early in the morning, rising to the street, light me up a cigarette, and I slap shoes on my feet song”. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

admin answers:

That’d be What I Got by Sublime 🙂
What I Got

Early in the morning, risin’ to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet
Got to find a reason, a reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason why my money’s all gone

I got a dalmation, and I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a mother f*cking riot
Life is (too short), so love the one you got
Cause you might get runover or you might get shot

Never start no static
I just get it off my chest
Never had to battle with no bulletproof vest
Take a small example, take a tip from me
Take all of your money, give it all to charity
Love is what I got
It’s within my reach

And the Sublime style’s still straight from Long Beach
It all comes back to you, you’ll finally get what you deserve
Try and test that you’re bound to get served
Love’s what I got
Don’t start a riot
You’ll feel it when the dance gets hot

[CHORUS]

(That’s) why I don’t cry when my dog runs away
I don’t get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don’t get angry when my Mom smokes pot
Hits the bottle and goes right to the rock
F*ckin’ and fightin’, it’s all the same
Livin’ with Louie dog’s the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin’, let the lovin’ come back to

Your Questions About Collie Man

Lizzie asks…

Is Peyton Manning better right now than he was at his prime age?

Is Peyton Manning better right now or was he better at his prime? Im just saying that his stats were very good at prime but couldnt get a super bowl ring until he got older. Is he better than Brady or is he his old self where he use to choke in big games?

admin answers:

I guess you could say he’s better. His overall knowledge has gotten so much better over the years, and he still has a great skill set. And the fact that he got to the Super Bowl with such a young receiving core last year kind of puts a stamp on just how good that guy is. If Garcon and Collie improve from last year, then Manning is primed to put up some big numbers again.

Nancy asks…

Songs like Collie Man by Slightly Stoopid?

Ive listened to allot of their songs, but none of them hit me as much as Collie Man. But i need more songs…
i know this question was asked 3 years ago, but the answer given to it only suggested two bands, both of which are similar to the bands usual songs… but neither does anything similar to Collie Man.
The vocals and simple melody are what haunts my mind constantly when not hearing the song and i think i might have played it about 50 million times by now on my ipod. 😛

admin answers:

Collie man is a great song, but they have other great songs too. Closer to the sun is my favorite. Also listen to open road, mellow mood, anywhere I go, I’m on fire, wiseman (acoustic roots version), no cocaine, hiphoppablues. These are probably my favorites, but they have probably 40 songs I love

Your Questions About Dog’s Life Ending

Thomas asks…

What’s the worst that can happen if I leave aural hematoma untreated?

What can happen if I leave my dog’s aural hematoma alone?
So if I leave it untreated, she will have a cauliflower ear, and nothing worse?

The problem is that I can’t take her to the vet and get help. She looks like she’s suffering, and it pains me to see it.

admin answers:

Hematoma’s need to be seen by a vet. They generally need to be lanced & drained, but your vet is the only one who can tell you what it needs based on his exam.

The end result of the potential cauliflower ear isn’t really the important part of the equation with this. Like the other poster replied, it is quite painful. If you broke your ankle, the end result would be that you’d have a limp for the rest of your life. Doesn’t sound so bad if you just look at what it would eventually do to you…but it leaves out the fact that you’d be going thru some excrutiating pain until it healed on its own. Your dog’s hematoma is no different. It is painful and needs to be looked at.

In this recession, it is hard to find the extra money sometimes to do anything other than pay for absolute necessities in life. But you’ve taken on the responsibility to be his caretaker and that includes taking care of health problems when they arise. Borrow the money, barter services with someone for it, ask your local shelter if they have a low-cost clinic, apply for care-credit thru the vet, ask if they’ll break the payments up, do whatever it takes to find the money to bring him in.

No matter that in the end it may just be disfigurement…it is the here and now of ending his pain that is the important part.

Donna asks…

When do kids develop intellect and emotions?

I was babysitting my 9 year old neighbor today, and we were watching Marley And Me. When I saw it in theatres I remember, everyone crying, boys and girls. Well when it ended he stared at me and said “That was weird, why did they make a movie about a dog’s life?”, I just stared at him and replied “Idk, why don’t you go get your $200 Abercrombie jacket and go outside and play.

admin answers:

They don’t develop them, they are taught them. Kids need to be taught ethics, morals, and manners or they run the risk of growing up to be very bad people.

Jenny asks…

Who here believes the Federal Government has the right to prosecute Michael Vicks dog fighting practices?

Personally, I think the Federal Government, and all government for that matter, has no right to stick their noses into dog fighting. Those dogs, pitbulls, LOVE TO FIGHT. They are FIGHTERS by nature. it is their NATURAL instinct to FIGHT. When one pitbull sees another, it attacks. it’s that simple.

So why would the federal govt or any government have anything to say about something that is, in ACTUAL REALITY, NATURAL? And what is it with all the people who think dog’s that are born to fight to the death (that is their purpose in life, by instinct) are more important than the Iraqi women, children and of course the less valuable of all, men are being slaughtered for the benefit of the Federal Reserve? Why is it that people care about these stupid killer dogs and let people be murdered for years on end?

I don’t get it.

I can’t wait to hear some of the intelligent remarks that will discount human life and make the life of a DOG more important. Remember, Bush TORTURES people.
Pitbulls are FIGHTERS.
Personally, I despise fighting of any kind.

admin answers:

No this should be a state crime.
If your wifes bush is torturing you then you should find a new woman.
