House Training an Abused Dog?Well first off I bought a dog "online". Anyway to make a long story short he's about a year old now and he has yet to warm up to me. He's skittish and jumpy. He refuses treats from me. I don't know what to do. Then the 2nd thing is that we bring him outside and he poops and pees, but when we leave he'll still poops and pees in the house.

 

13 Year Old Birthday Party?My daughter's birthday is in less than 10 days! She doesn't want to do anything at home and places are very limited. There is a building I can rent but we don't know what to do in it. She wants to invite many friends (including boys). Money is also very limited.

 

Removing Duct Tape Residue on Jacket?I have a pink winter jacket. I took off the duct tape, but I noticed a lot of residue. How do I remove it?

 

Keeping Cats Out of the Yard?I have two dogs that recently got fleas. I have been a pet owner for 25 plus years and never had fleas. Only thing I can think of is we recently moved. There are a couple stray cats one of which had her kittens on my deck. I am sure they are the source of my flea problem. What can I use to deter them from coming into my yard?

Sewing Patterns Have Light Print and Small Pictures?I have been sewing for over 50 years; I make all my own clothes. I have noticed recently that the patterns have such lighter print, I can't read them and the pictures of the pattern pieces are much smaller. I have 20/20 vision.

What Breed is My Dog?I am getting a couple of puppies from one of my friends and we are trying to figure out who the father is to them. The mother is a chocolate Lab/German Shepherd mix, but we don't know the father. There are a couple different male dogs on her street, but we think it's probably the Rottweiler because of some of the puppies' coloring.

 

Graham & Brown Wallpaper Batch Number?I am after a roll of super fresco; I have no batch number. I can only describe it as a feather pattern. If anyone has the batch number I would be so grateful.

 

Removing Stucco Spatters from Neighbor's House?I just had my garage stuccoed, and the workers got the new stucco on my neighbor's house which is also stuccoed.

Dyeing a Two Color Cardigan?I just got a cardigan, but I don't like the light grey color. Is it possible to dye the light grey to a charcoal grey without changing the wine color too much? The wine color is on the sleeves and back. The light grey is on the front.

 

My Boxer Won't Eat?I have a 3 year old Boxer. She has always been happy and very healthy. I went to work full-time in June at a nursing home. She has slowly been losing weight ever since.

Multi Trunked Mimosa?Does this tree need to be banded somehow so that it grows up more so than wide? I am just a little concerned about the branches growing in width rather than height.
