Answer to:
How do I stop my dog eating food off the ground in public areas that people throw away? First, train your dog to understand the "Drop it" and "Leave it" command. I suggest you do so with a toy, rather than food, and reward with food or play when he obeys. Once the dog learns the commands with a toy, try with food - you could start with undesirable food and progress to something yummy. Correct the dog with a leash tug if he eats it. Then, take the dog to a park - on leash - and...

He was a stray/abandoned and he started to follow us two days in a row when we went for a walk. The second day, we figured that he was abandoned and took him in. We let him out every day; he would not have been happy as an inside cat. He dies a few years later in a house fire. You have no idea how many times I wished I let him out that day.

Why does a dog have to die if it protects it's food? It's a big misconception that it's OK to mess with the food while the dog is eating to show him you are a pack leader. Pack leaders eat first, that's true, but when they are done, they allow the more submissive dog to approach the food, and they don't pester them - they leave them be and let them eat. In fact, messing with the dog's food trains them to guard their food (especially if the dog...

When you're out and see other people's dogs, do you want to pet them and/or talk to them? If so, how often do you do just that?

I stop by whenever I have time and the other person seems approachable. Typically, this happens several times per week, when I am walking my own dog.

I look at all of them, Rosie, but many are knocked out after a first quick scan because they don't meet our criteria. A lot of larger companies have software to do the first pass, looking for specific criteria. If you don't fulfill them, you are gone and nobody will actually look at your resume. Why? Because they are trying to cut down the time their staff spends on screening hundreds of...

Why are a lot of poor people conservative?

I guess it largely depends on who the strangers are, and for how long I would have to be in such a vulnerable position.

Would getting my adult dog in a socialisation class help him socialise more? He has been to a puppy socialistaion class as a pup. Many trainers and breeders claim that adult dogs don't need to socialize with other dogs - it's better if you are his main source of fun.

If so, it may be a chlorine allergy ... let's hope not, because that is hard to resolve, unless you can bathe him in source water somewhere.

my dog looks like he is in discomfort when urinating (see description) You need to see a vet - male dogs especially may have an obstruction (enlarged prostate, urinary crystals or stones can form inside the bladder).

what is a good way to discipline a dog when its done something wrong, so he understands that is bad and wont do it again. ??

Shame on you!" 3) time out in her crate (I use this one sparingly for bigger offenses) 4) withdrawal of my attention - turning my back to the dog when she barks for attention 5) directing her attention to a more...

Wouldn't he be OK if I was just gone during work hours and then I hung out with him every night? I would not leave my dog alone for more than 5 to 6 hours. Otherwise, you run a risk of the dog relieving himself indoors and learning undesirable behaviors (chewing stuff, eating household plants and other mischief) - it is best to prevent such behaviors in the first place, because unlearning them is difficult. Here are your options, as far as I know: 1) If you work nearby and have a long...

Answer to:
any tips on how to get over a really bad hangover??? Lots of water (mineral water is best), scrambled eggs work for me, and if you feel dizzy when lying down, let one leg hang down from the bed - it kind of anchors you. Of course, the best course of action is moderation and drinking a lot of water while you are drinking. Also, not drinking on empty stomach.

Sun's magnetic influences and other cosmic events are responsible for these cycles. The global warming movement led by the megalomaniac Gore will enter in the history books as the biggest scam of all times.

Does anyone know of a fast, easy, diet plan? Cut junk food, replace deserts with fruit, drink plenty of water and if you can't exercise, at least walk as much as you can. Also, look into these supplements: colloidal gold, resveratrol, omega 3 (a cocktail of all of the above will have a synergistic effect). It's painless, hunger-free, effective and the weight loss achieved is much more stable.

My 16 week old puppy keeps going potty in the house and her extra small kennel right after she comes back in the house.How do i stop this. I think you have unknowingly "trained her" that that's the place to go pee by giving her attention after the deed. If you catch her in the act, say "No" (she may or may not stop peeing at that time), and immediately take her outside and instruct her to "Go potty" and wait a bit, even if she doesn't go again. Don't cuddle her if she has an accident. Don't get angry. Just firmly say "No" and...

My 7 week old Labrador puppy has been having very loose stool? is this something I have to be worried about 7 weeks - does that mean you just brought your puppy home? If so, a change in the diet might be responsible for the runs. You should feed your puppy the same food he was getting before you got him, and you should gradually introduce his new diet. You should start with 90% old food and 10% new food, and every day, increase the new food by 10 to 20%. The puppy should have been de-wormed...

Just spayed my 6 month old puppy, how do I keep her brother from mauling her? They play rough. What can I expect? She comes home tomorrow. I think you need to separate them for at least a week. After a week to 10 days, the scars will heal enough for her to slowly resume normal activity. I suggest you even walk them separately to avoid jumping. In any case, your vet probably recommended reduced activity for at least a week for the patient, and while it is good to let her have a bit of exercise, she should not do anything that...

Answer to:
why is it more acceptable for 2 girls to be together than 2 guys? Is it really? If that is indeed the case, I think it would have to do with the fact that many guys fantasize about lesbians and they get aroused by the idea of joining in the fun. As far as I know women generally don't fantasize about gay men. I bet that women don't really make a distinction in terms of acceptability of lesbian vs. gay couples, but perhaps men do.

If Marijuana is DECRIMINALIZED instead of Legalized, where are people supposed to buy it? You can grow a limited number of plants for personal use. It's like with alcohol.

However, if you get busted growing it, you will get into more or less trouble, depending on the number of plants you have. If its use is decriminalized, then people don't go to prison for...

Doesn't need to be I love you per se ... answering my call with "Hey, my love" will do the trick for me. I do think that it can be overdone, though, and some people just say it automatically without really meaning it (when leaving for work, at the end of each phone call).

Why do some women "let themselves go" physically? Some people simply get complacent. Others don't keep themselves up because it's too much work.

The cat was actually pretty funny when he was drinking from the toilet - he looked like a drunk hanging over the bowl and puking.

The Tom Hanks movie in which he was marooned alone on an island for years showed him talking to a basketball. Would you talk to anything? I talk to myself, I talk to animals. I sometimes talk to inanimate objects, usually commanding them to work better, faster etc. For instance, if I can't open a child-proof lid or cover, I will say: "Common! Open up!" Or if I need to leave the house and am waiting for the washer to finish a load so that I can stick it into the dryer, I will say: "Move it you little sucker! Gotta go." I...

It probably won't help to tell you that you should not feel guilty, but it's true. I know I would be devastated if it happened to me, and the guilt would be eating me up, regardless of how illogical that is. Now, as for your girls, I think it's best to tell them that the dog was killed by a car; don't tell them you were driving it if you can pull that off. I think...

A lot of people also shoot from the hip when they are anonymous - you see that on AB and...

Does venting actually make you feel better or does it just make you feel like you are above the person you are venting about? Venting is healthy in general; of course, you can choose an unhealthy way to vent (violence), but overall, letting it out releases the emotional pressure and prevents gradual build-up of frustration. The frustration would get out in one way or another eventually (emotional outbursts, violent behavior, passive-aggressive behavior), so it's better to acknowledge it as it comes, have a good cry,...

In other situations, you might be attracted to to certain people because...

In the 50/60's rasism was big right? Im wondering then how black singers were on T.v. Like Jackson 5, Fats Domino, etc. Black people singing and dancing was consistent with the stereotype.

Most of them would have freaked out over a black doctor, teacher or a politician, but blacks as entertainers were OK.

What I have a problem with is how liberal governments manage taxpayers' money, spending like there is no tomorrow. We have a saying in Czech: "What's yours is mine; what is mine, don't you touch it!" It may lose a bit in translation, but it pretty much sums up how I see their approach to fiscal responsibility.

If people were paid to be polite to one another would rudeness disappear? No. It's an attitude - you can't pay someone to change their attitude. Actually, I think the sense of entitlement and ego-centrism are part of the source of rudeness. Paying them to be nice, even if it were practically possible, wold just make it worse.

As a parent or teen, at what age do you think a child should be able to have a boyfriend/girlfriend? I think the answer is different for every kid and depends on a number of factors, from the cultural background of the family to the maturity level of the teens involved. In my opinion, it is best to start talking about the facts of life at an early age, say 5 or 6. I think it is up to the parents to have these talks, and I think you have to according to what the kid is asking - respond to...

My right eye is constantly watery recently, theres no pain as if something is in there such as an eyelash so what could be causing it? Allergies for sure, especially if there is redness as well. It could be combines with the sniffles, or cough, or nothing in case of light allergies. Try Benadryl (the harshest of them all but will get rid of allergy symptoms for sure); I prefer Reactine or Aerius, but if it is allergies, try to ask your pharmacist for samples, so that you can test which one works best for you.

How do you get over an obsession with shoes? The main question is: "Do you really want to?" I mean deep down. Be honest, do you? (I bet you don't; I bet it's a financial issue) The second question is: "Are you truly obsessed, or do you simply spend too much money on shoes because you like them?"

Even when we take a walk in the forest, we both take a little "detour." I don't think it's modesty - it's more the discomfort of being seen in such an undignified position.

I work from home, so I don't keep my 5 month puppy in her crate. how can I curb bored behavior-digging furniture-when I can't play w/her? Crate your puppy when you can't pay attention to it. However, don't crate her to punish her - the crate is supposed to be a good, safe place. It's best to feed your dog in the crate as well. Don't feel guilty about crating her, but do try to take her out to play for 10, 15 min every hour or two. Puppies sleep 18 hrs a day, so if you take her out for a pee, a short walk, then play with her...

Answer to:
Why do we get fatter as we get older. I exercise and still put on weight. Can we really retain our figure of youth? or is this a myth? It's not a myth - our metabolism slows down as we grow older. I can recommend something that worked for me: 1) grape seed extract or Resveratrol 2) omega 3 supplements 3) One-a-day vitamins for weight loss (I think it's mainly the chromium, and green tea/apple cider extract that are at work there) The weight loss is gradual, you feel better and you are shrinking (loosing fat, gaining...

Answer to:
What can you do about premature ejaculation? I didn't care at first, but now I do. Well, this is a hard one to address in a couple. There are some techniques that can help. I suggest you try to interrupt the penetration several times. Ask him to pull out or jump off yourself and let the two of you focus just on you for a little bit - no touching of his penis. Try to vary the positions - the time needed to "reposition yourselves" helps to decrease his stimulation, even if...

I am on Adderall to deal with life, and smoke pot to deal with the Adderall. Any thoughts or ideas? I could use the input. Taking Adderall for ADD? Physiologically, they work against each other, but according to my research, there is not a huge danger of interaction because they don't work on the same receptors. If you have troubles with Adderall, perhaps lowering the dosage, in consultation with your doc, of course, may do the trick. I would strongly advise you against smoking pot during the day. I am not...

Answer to:
What habit that others have annoys you most? apart from lying, cheating etc., I would say interrupting and pushing one's ideas onto others. Also, not lifting the toilet seat ... and not putting it back down; munching on refrigerated stuff and leaving the rest out all night (yeah ... that's my hubby). Blaming others for one's mistakes, not taking responsibility. Drinking heavily. Saying "ok" after every third word.

Answer to:
Does your mind control you, or do you control the mind? Both - it's a two-way street. I would think that mostly it controls us (all the automated responses, cognitive shortcuts, our experience influencing our choices etc. If you look at it from physiological perspective, our neurochemistry is responsible for all our thoughts, movements, bodily functions. I guess it depends on how you define "mind".

Why do people call President Obama Nazi, Hitler, socialist, all the bad words? Are some Obama haters really just racists? Some people might say that because they are racist, but I would think that many of his critics are trying to raise a valid point (at least valid in their point of view). It is unfair to discount the views of anybody who opposes his policies as racist just because they are criticizing an African American. He is your president, for God's sake, which means that most of the country voted for him....

Why do American students not learn a foreign lanquage in elementary school like most other countries?

I also started with German in grade 3 as an extracurricular activity, which was pretty common as well. When we came to Canada and learned English and French, I lost both my Russian and my German - lack...

Would getting an associates degree in Psychiatric/mental health technician be good for a future psychologist? Not enough to practice as a psychologist - you need a PhD for that in most states/countries. As a starting point, getting an associate degree before switching to a 4-year college should be fine. With just an associate degree, you might be able to work as a research assistant, psychiatric technician etc.

You're hunting in Colorado. You see someone swimming in a stream, its Osama bin Laden, you are sure of it. But why would he be in Colorado swimming? It's out of place. But you're sure as can be it's him. He is in your sights, could you pull the trigger? I can barely muster enough guts to kill a fly, so no, I don't think I could kill a human, no matter what he's done. Mind you, I might see it differently if I lost a loved one in a terrorist attack.

Answer to:

Sure you can - if you take the test when there is not enough of pregnancy hormones yet in your system to be detected, and then retake it a couple of days later, you can get a positive result.

My BF left his camera at my house & I looked thru the pics. Would that make you upset?

Why does a man who is only 51 years old go limp right in the middle of sex when he does not have high blood pressure or is not diabetic? it's just the way it is ... the older men get, the more stimulation they need to maintain an erection.

Hopefully, you have an understanding partner who will gladly help out when it happens. Also, drinking or using drugs before having sex can cause problems,...

My boyfriend is so depressed, and won't talk to anyone but me. But i'm out of things to tell him. How do I cheer him up? If he has been depressed most of the time for more than a few weeks without a trigger event (death in the family, loss of job etc.), then he should get treatment (meds or therapy or both). If he just feels down and is willing to talk to him, stop giving him advice on how to snap out of it; rather, let him talk and see what is bothering him. Distraction is good; getting things off one's chest...

Answer to:
My dog was fine 2 days ago but now he's lying down and looks to be in pain. His stomach also looks bloated. What's wrong? It's possibly a case of bloat - this is an extremely dangerous condition and requires an immediate visit to a vet hospital. Their stomach is full of air, and unless the air is released (via a tube inserted orally into his stomach, or by releasing it with a wide needle inserted directly into the stomach), the dog will die.

Answer to:
do dogs love Belly rubs? when i rub my dogs belly, he just sits there on his side. Most well-adjusted dogs like belly rubs.
