    Puppy problem don't know how to fix

    Quote: All he did was teach the dog a "leave it" command. He got the dog's attention away from the poo with the sound, then reinforced the dog for looking at him and not eating the poo with banana as a treat. Teaching "leave it" is definitely a long process and a very involved one. I don't...

    Puppy problem don't know how to fix

    There is a product called "Icky Poo" that you can feed your dog. It's a tasteless white powder that, once digested, makes their poo taste really gross, so they stop eating it. I know he's not eating his own poo, I just thought it might work if you feed it to the birds. Not sure if this woud be...

    My new pet snake *PICS*

    My sister had a pet rat that was the coolest ever. Her name was CJ. She would take CJ into town with her (riding her bike!) and that rat would ride on her shoulder or in the sleeve of her sweatshirt. The rat chewed a hole in the lid of the terrarium and lived (free-ranged) in my sister's room...

    Funny story! I'm always amazed by people who don't want to touch a snake. I guess I can understand if they are afraid, but snakes just feel SO neat! I have a good story, too! We had a ball python at the Aquarium, the most docile, easy-going snake EVER. Well, he's one of our education snakes...

    mama's gonna get a new pair of shoes!

    Oooooh, exciting! I thought he was going to be bigger. Thank goodness he isn't, that size is still somewhat managable, though they can still do some horrible damage if they get ya. Good job!

    Male Chocolate Labradoodle for sale in CT

    Can't you return him to the breeder? Every good breeder I know wants their dogs back if they don't work out.

    http://s161.photobucket.com/albums/t213/svenjaxeller/wildlife/?albumview=slideshow I posted a link so that others aren't startled by the spiders, I know some people really can't handle them.

    Yay! I love spiders, insects and other bugs. I'm uploading pictures now, and I will post them (or probably a link to them) tomorrow!

    Quote: Wow, definitely a huge difference. The other ones colors are striking in comparison. How many snakes do you have total? Do you have non-venomous ones? And do you have any other reptiles?

    My new pet snake *PICS*

    Quote: What cool snakes!! Thanks for sharing the pics! You wouldn't have to go far here to find a spider like that. These are what I have in my HOUSE! I love all animals, but I freak when I see a spider. I never kill them, Im always running and climbing up something to escape them. Or...

    Oh, neat. I'm really familiar with local/southeastern snakes as well as exotics, but you got me there! Looking at the picture, I did notice that the bands were different, but I was stuck on the species we have here.

    *sigh* might be the end of the road for me

    How frustrating! I live in West Ashley, but outside city limits (in CHARLESTON county), when I called last year, they told me, "sure you can get chickens, just talk to your neighbors first if you plan on getting roosters. And make sure they're not in the street. Have fun!" Big difference, huh...

    Quote: It is a copperhead. Are you from Charleston? If so wrong area. I am indeed from Charleston. We have them all over down here, they are the most common venomous snake I see here, besides cottonmouths. We have two subspecies, the Southern and Northern copperheads. Do you have a subspecies...

    Is it a copperhead? It comes from my part of the country.
