    Does anyone have advice on training a dog not to snap or bite?

    I will try out all the suggestions for finding a trainer, and in the meantime I will hopefully stop him being on the furniture. Thanks again for all the support, I think I have all my questions answered for now. I will let you know the end result, not sure when that is, but I will give an...

    Does anyone have advice on training a dog not to snap or bite?

    Had him since he was 8 weeks old. I never did any training with him, wasn't the one who got him. I have been sitting here blindly watching a train wreck in the making and only now realizing it. Thankyou for not sugarcoating your reply. I needed to hear that. If you have any advice on finding a...

    Does anyone have advice on training a dog not to snap or bite?

    Thanks so much for all the help everyone. You've confirmed my suspicions. I did not raise/train him, another person in the house somewhat 'owns' him, and to put it bluntly raised him like a cat. Never made to respect people.. doesn't listen, wont listen to no.. he just does what he likes when he...

    Integrating a new rabbit didn't go well, help?

    I've come to the conclusion that I will leave the little buck on his own for now, and probably put him with the others when Milo eventually passes since he is quite a bit older than him. Thankyou everyone for your help and suggestions!

    Chicken feed for aviary birds??

    Thanks for your input. If I were to use it, I'd probably hope to use it long-term. I'm trying to find a feed similar to small bird pellets that isn't as expensive in large amounts.

    Integrating a new rabbit didn't go well, help?

    We currently have 5 rabbits, 4 are in a group and the remaining rabbit we (if possible) would like to integrate him to the group. The existing group is 2 spayed older females, 1 young neutered male and an older alpha male (Milo) that was neutered late, he is quite aggressive at times. The other...

    What animal is living here???

    We had rats digging tunnels like that around our water pump, it looked exactly like the picture. But then against the hardware cloth, that's too small for rats. Mice, perhaps?

    Pigeon trapping, what am I doing wrong?

    I have a trap, with a flock that I am trying to catch. The trap is a wire cage with two metal ends, you put the ends up and there's a trip plate you place bait on, they step on the trip plate and it lets down the doors. Similar to the average live catch traps for possums and feral cats, just...

    What's the rarest breed or variety you have?

    Probably Diamond doves, more uncommon than rare but still the least common I have, I only have 2 females at the moment but I hope to find some males soon and start breeding myself a nice little flock of them :) (Not my photo, but this is what they look like for those who don't know)

    Questions about small bird breeding

    Okay, thankyou for the information. I did mess up a bit with my birds, I don't think they got enough sunlight this year at breeding season, but recently they were probably getting too much, 14-16 hours when it would have only been 10 hours outside. They are getting 10 hours now, but since it was...

    Questions about small bird breeding

    Yes, that is what I have heard and will stick to from now on. I will breed them at the longest natural daylight hours in spring/summer then. Because of the way my set up is it's a bit difficult since I need a light bulb going to make the room light enough for them, there is windows but not many...
