    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    rabbit stopped eating

    Just a comment. Buying a new rabbit is always cheaper, but sometimes it is helpful to know why the rabbit died. If you cut the rabbit open you can spot some conditions yourself. You can spot a twisted intestine or abnormalities in the liver and lungs for instance.

    I am sorry about your rabbit. Without doing a necropsy there is no way of knowing what happened.

    What Dog Breed Do You Want Today!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I miss having a dog. I am not really in a position to care for one now, but I really miss my Pugs. Pugs are wonderful companions. To me they also look like the result of a bad blind date between a gargoyle and a manatee.

    rabbit stopped eating

    Does the rabbit have any other symptoms? Runny nose? Abnormal abdomen? Like tight or squishy? Labored or rapid breathing? In my limited experience, taking a rabbit to a vet is an exercise in futility. You can spend a lot of money and still have a dead rabbit. Force feeding the rabbit is really...

    Pigs

    I can tell you this. In my experience it costs about as much to have them processed as it does to raise them.

    Urgent need of help with goat constipation

    Without seeing the goat it is difficult to have an opinion. If it was my goat I would immediately give her a dose of clostridium perfingens antitoxin. She may have enterotoxemia. If she does, you don't have much time. Another possibility is polio. Thiamin is used to treat that. If she has entero...

    Any idea what breed this dog is? (Image included)

    The dog looks to me to be at least part Dane. A DNA test is the only way to find out what he is.

    Wire crates are fairly inexpensive, collapse, and are easy to store until needed.

    Dog Pooping on Floor at Night

    For what it is worth, I fed my dogs Purina Formula One. Meat is the first ingredient. They liked it and their stools were always firm and virtually odor free.
