    Should I put my dog on Valium?

    I have a dog named Buster who is going on 10. I've owned him his since he was a pup...he is a mixed breed chicken protector. He first exhibited strange behavior when he was about a yr old. He began gnawing on himself. It had the vet scratching his head. He thought maybe he had a fever and...

    OK, so its NOT a pet...but....

    You should probably take it to a safe area and turn it out. This time of year they become cold and slow and sluggish, then go into a hibernation state. If you put it somewhere safe where dogs and cats can't get to it it will find a good hidey hole to to spend the winter...

    Alpacas for $100 in NC...may be worth the drive!

    Buster! Here's The Puppy Pictures!

    Just bumping this for Buster to see. I only have four left to find homes for. I think we've decided to keep one of the tricolored ones. I'll post a pic of him later and you can tell me if you think he is a keeper, or not.

    How to you NAME your farm (North Carolina)

    In NC, I just don't know. I know here, in SC, we don't show a profit. You just sign a statement that so much of your land is used for agricultural purposes. You have to have so much acreage too. We only have 10 acres, but qualify and get a good tax break on our property taxes. Hope...

    Perfect pet........rabbit, gerbil, kitten or bird???

    Quote: All the research I did back when we had rats said that one of the best ways to keep them was in an aquarium. They are succeptible to drafts and can become sick pretty quickly. The cold doesn't really bother guinea pigs and rabbits,but rats don't do well if they catch a draft. I had...

    Perfect pet........rabbit, gerbil, kitten or bird???

    My vote is guinea pig too. Someone gave my special needs daughter one and I thought it was an awful idea at first, but who knew!! Turns out it is a great pet. Much more like have a small cat. You can hold it and cuddle with it without it constantly trying to get away. I've had rats before...

    Buster! Here's The Puppy Pictures!

    Quote: I think they will be a medium sized dog. Probably about the size of a blue heeler, maybe not as stocky, but a little taller? I don't know..I've never seen one full grown of this mix. Buster said he had one of the same mix once, so maybe he'll know.

    Buster! Here's The Puppy Pictures!

    The puppies that my adopted border collie/australian shephard had that were sired by a blue heeler has FRECKLES!! They stayed white until about a week ago, but now their color is really coming in! It doesn't look like I'm going to have much trouble finding homes for them. All but two looks like...

    Hey Buster..puppy question!

    Quote: Thanks Buster. I'll post some pics tommorow afternoon. I sure hope they color out. I looked over your pics and showed them to ds and dh and they both say they look just like yours. These folks would really like colorful pups, but seeing as how they understand that they are...

    Why you shouldn't breed white boxers:

    She is a nice dog. I don't know much about this in boxers, but I know this is a big problem in Australian Shephards. Some good friends of mine were breeders and every now and then they would have a lethal white born. Most of the time the mothers would push them out of the litter in the...

    Hey Buster..puppy question!

    Buster and anyone else with experience, I took in a dog a while back that is a border collie, austrailian shephard cross. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that she seemed to be swelling up and at first I thought she must have something wrong, so i picked her up and was going to take her in the...

    Quote: I like Lillian, but especially Lily..I may add it to the list. I already have a Bethany Grace, so that knocks out Beth and Grace. If I knew I was going to have another I might would have saved Grace for this one and named her Gracie. Sarah is on my list. It was my grandmother's...
