I have a graphic of a dog leash that I want to use on a business card. However, when I try to make it big enough for the card, the image becomes pixelated. How can I fix this?

Whatever the resolution of your original graphic is can not be made higher, and you need higher resolution to be able to enlarge without pixelating.
Try reading this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixelation
It is a good article to explain what is happening to your graphic, and why.
