Chihuahua Yelping and Stiffening Its Neck?
She needs to be seen by a regular vet - why the emergency room didnt advise you to follow up on this..... I would take her even when she is not having the (incident) have them exam her and maybe they can advise you to bring her in right away while its happening...

Puppy Has Itchy Bug Bites?
I wouldnt use your medication on your puppy. The puppy should be seen by a vet and get his own medication. Also, a 3 wk old puppy could very much be missing his mother as 3 weeks is way too soon for a puppy to be taken from his mother - dont know the circumstances...

Is Dog's Shedding Caused By Lack Of Vitamins?
If you believe the amount of shedding is unusual perhaps you should take her/him to the vet. Dogs can shed a lot depending on the season of the year and anxiety/excitement can also make them shed. Are you brushing the lab often - that might help - but I would...

Purchasing An Invisible Fence?
If you could - I would suggest a real fence. These electric fences do not work for every dog so there is no guarantee anyway. They dont sound like the ideal choice - good luck in finding a solution.

Extra Service Charges on My Verizon Bill?
Do you have an option to change the service in your area? Usually, when you use the word cancel/cancelling Im amazed what they are all of a sudden allowed to do! Also, I would tell them I want the proof in writing - that you signed up for it Also, I wouldnt...

Drugstore Products For Damaged Hair?
Although I believe the hairstylist (30 Years in business) about cutting the damage off - I have always been told at my hair salon - when you are having your hair chemically treated for any style/look you should always use a product that is good for what you...

Buying Empty Tic Tac Style Boxes?
I would contact the company - they are usually more than willing to help a consumer.They may not charge you either. You could be a walking advertisement for them of how nice they are.

Review Of Dog Arthritis Treatments?
How did you notice the cell health makeover working? Im curious - I have a dog with pretty bad arthritis and have tried the expensive stuff. She doesnt like them and I find it hard to find a difference. What symptoms of improvement do you see - and how long...

Harassing Neighbor?
Thank you and yes, to Linda - the police did suggest that and we did. We do have one shot that we know of but the license plate isnt legible - there are other features of the car that might help though (I am not savvy enough to set up the camera to take image...

Harassing Neighbor?
Also, Glenns Mom - I dont think the victim is the one that needs or should have to move - although that is the unfortunate case sometimes (also, we do want to move but not because of that). This we needed to respond to - it was harassment over a voting issue...

What Breed Is My Dog? (Pit Bull Mix)

Milia Around the Eyes?
Actually your dermatologist can get rid of them - and although you scar easily - it didnt leave a scar on me at all. There is also Meloderma - which I heard can be quite effective for healing scars. My experience was a little red mark that went away very soon...

Natural Baking Soda As Underarm Deodorant

Towels That Recommend "Avoid Contact With Skin Treatment Products"?
This has happened to our towels, etc. What can be done with these tyed-dyed towels? I also think hair products might have something to do with the bleaced out splotches?

Burned Food On Emerilware Skillet?
I dont know if this will work but I use this method for getting hard to remove stuff off my pans -(I havent tried on non-stick) I either put water or seltzer water in the pan (enough to boil) and it boils/sizzles most or all of it off. Also, I would use an...

Complaints About NY and CA Moving Companies?

Dog Scratching But I Don't See Any Fleas?
He really needs to be seen by a vet - maybe they can give you a payment plan. That hes scared and shaky would scare me - he doesnt have to have fleas to be itchy - he could have allergies. I wouldnt put anything on him without a professionals advice. It really...

Mine was not transplanted - it is about 30 years old. It came with the house! The leaves come but not the blooms - should it just be cut down or can it be saved?

Supermarket Mistakes
I think it used to be - not sure if it still is - that if the product rang up at a lower price or there is a sign (they forgot to take down - say an item was on sale) they are supposed to give it to you for that price. I cant stand when I dont catch something...

Complaint About New The Swiffer Wetjet Pads?

Do flea collars really work?
Ive heard they are really not good for your animal. The products that have been recommended to me are the liquids that come in vials, and you apply to their back of their neck area once a month.
