Why are dogs being used as accessories?

Edmund Rappley: Trust me just leave them.. And they will learn to like each other or at least tolerate each otherLOL.And no, it has nothing to do with the breed of dog. Everyone seems to think that huskies are ''cat killers'' my husky is wonderful with my two cats, because since day one he has been taught that harming my cats is unexceptable. He loves my cats they always lay together.Even just a few minutes ago some stray cat started attacking mine and my husky scared the stray away....Show more

Hope Lundmark: I know your dog hates bath's but to get rid of that many flea's you are going to have to bath him with some sort of flea and tick shampoo. But for a quick fix in the mean time put him in the bath and cover him with some sort of Conditioner and leave it on for ten minutes. That will suffocate the fleas. That is just a quick fix until you can get some flea shampoo and bath him because it will not kill the eggs already laied. Go buy a flea collar. They work great! people just don't buy them very much anymore because there are so many more things out there to do for flea's. Once you get the flea population under control you can look at other alternative's but I will tell you the cheaper the medication the less it is going to work. I hope this helps....Show more

Barton Slisz: Is it an open wound or a mark on the eye itself... just see how it goes, but if the wound is on the actual eye, i would take him to the vet just to be sure...

Elsie Resner: I have a cat, and he's going to be a year old in April. My family's planning on getting a dog, the earliest after the summer. When my uncle's dog visits, my cat hisses and arches his back. His front paws are already declawed. My uncle says that I should get a dog soon before the cat's too old. How do I get them to like each other? Also, would there be any specific breed that would be better to get than another dog-wise? Thanks!

Cliff Tyre: Flea shampoo will only work the day ! you give the bath. You can also bath with Dawn or Lemon Joy, t! hat will get rid of the fleas, but for that day only. And the soaps won't kill the flea eggs that may hatch later.You need to use a flea control product like Frontline, Revolution, Advantage, etc. Pet Armor is newer and much less expensive. There is also a pill called Comfortis which will work. If the one you're using doesn't work try a different one, they aren't all identical....Show more

Clay Lipira: Just let them be around each other and they'll eventually tolerate or even like each other. The cat will probably scratch the dog at first, and the dog will learn not to mess with it.

Elinore Schlinker: Stop worrying about how others pamper their animals. If the animal doesn't like it they will tear at it til it comes off. As far as short haired dogs goes, they get cold easy and like the warmth of a little outfit. These pets are loved dearly by their owners wether you like them or not, and that is a fine thing for a dog.

Marvel Mcaulay: This is the only thi! ng that bothers you about Paris Hilton and the example she is setting for today's girls?She has been seen on the internet having sex multiple times. She is anorexic or something, her body is disgusting, but girls look at that as something to copy.Bet you anything she is on crack.She is dumb as a stump. So stupid!!! The attention she gets tells people it's OK to be like that. The real question is why do we allow her to tell us how we should be? Why are parents letting their kids watch the idiot in the first place. Parents have the power to say no and don't so, maybe another good question is Why don't parents parent their kids?...Show more

Nannie Kasee: i agree....i love my dogs and will not let just anyne touch them!!!!there names are rudy and champ!!there so cute!!

Jerald Florence: I agree its wrong to carry a dogs as accessories dogs are bought for companioinship and loyalty they also help ppl. They r not to make u look good in public! This is just wronge.! oh yeah its very shallow!

Joesph Smithmyer: in this materialisti! c society, it is expectable (not asserting i'm an exception, I too am a sufferer of such values). What i will say inspite of the incontrovertible fact that, is that i don't techniques in any respect, and am appreciative to those that furnish a powerful homestead for their animals, no remember if or not they convey them around in a handbag, Louis Vuitton bag, or gown them up with clothier puppy clothing. i could quite that than abuse, forget, and the different terrible techniques that folk handle their animals. the only subject is the breeders. at present they're catering to the prevalent look, one occasion: slanted hind legs on German Shepherds. even inspite of the incontrovertible fact that this definitely will enhance the prospect for arthritis, alongside with different issues for those doggies backbone, etc. breeders proceed to reproduce them for this needed trait....Show more

Armanda Hertel: Your vet can prescribe a flea medication. As well as the flea meds, you ! need to call out a professional exterminator and have your home and yard sprayed.

Barton Morfee: There are people who take their dogs everywhere because they really don't want to be away from them. Then there are people who use them as accessories, like Paris Hilton. She thinks that the dog, or the monkey (she did have a monkey), or whatever she has will give her more attention and that is a positive. When her dog went missing it was a big deal, drama and everything surrounding an animal when she doesn't go to events to help children or the poor. Celebrities, or whatever Paris is, is shallow so we shouldn't expect that she can take care of a dog because it doesn't seem like she can take care of herself. Anyone who looks up to Paris as a role model needs help, and I think that it is individuals who are shallow not our society....Show more

Lynn Melbourne: lil dogs go good with cats normally

Sherita Gallati: i agree!

Elmo Tervo: It doesn't seem to be bo! thering him,But will it go back to normal? ...The story is I left him o! utside with my boyfriends dog and I guess they got into it pretty good because when I called them inside they were both very shaken up and twitching, I looked at his eye and noticed a red mark, then I looked at his lip and he has a big gash from the other dogs tooth.Today the gash is better, and it closed up a lot since yesterday, what about his eye?I feel so bad about this.......Show more

Pasquale Pollet: I agree. What is potentially more disturbing is the newest "fad" of celebrities having kids - basically babies as fashion accessories. It's a sick world.Makes me wanna go home and hug my dog!

Minh Lefrancois: take to vet and treatwhile therehave house and yard treatedmost treatments kill when they bite, don't keep them off if house/yard is infested

Tommy Durrenberger: I saw an undergraduate girl walking a new puppy of some tiny breed on a leash on campus. The pup was pulling and sniffing and running around. The girl was completely exasperated and said in! an astounded voice, "OMG, do all dogs act like this?!" Yes, honey they do; that is how healthy puppies act. One problem is the media and fashion industry hyping dogs as accessories (Thank you, Project Runway!) rather than animal companions. The other problem is lax parents who allow their daughters to buy into the trend and will buy them a $2500 yorkie puppy that will be carried like a doll until the next trend sweeps through. I had a co-worker tell me that she was looking for a tiny breed puppy for her daughter to carry around. The daughter was 8. What a good mother. When did society "become" shallow? Our mothers and grandmothers were not allowed to vote because they were women, and were legally considered property. Racially-based slavery was frighteningly recent in the U.S. Slavery in the sex trade is a booming business worldwide. Wake up. Society is not only shallow, but cruel. And kind. The fact that some people actually care about animal welfare is in fact an improvem! ent in society (sad, but true)....Show more

Branden Roddick: you ! could send your cat to me at 643 myers ln

Aubrey Tirri: I *completely* agree.

Ariel Arons: Hun- I don't think a breed has anything to do with it. My Yorkshire Terrior Emily gets along with my mother and father's cat Mimi, my parents also have a Bichon Frise' named Francine and they all get along with each other, hey if the cat doesn't want to be bothered with your dog when you get it, then just leave it alone, they will learn how to tolerate each other eventually.Hope I helped. (:-Jen...Show more

Danica Timperman: with any animal when they are first introduced to a new animal they can be defensive. I've grown up with a variety of dog breeds with cats and they all seem to get along with the cats. The labs and austrailian shepards are fine with them. I've also noticed that smaller dog breeds get along very well with cats. I have 2 chihuahuas and a tibetian spaniel and they actually play with the cats. It may take a week or two for the cat to adjust to the d! og but he should get along just fine. good luck and i hope this helps...Show more

Jed Mutone: What is the best way to get rid of fleas on my lab mix? I can see them jumping off of him and its really grossing me out, he hates baths but the flea medicine I give him doesn't work and its way too expensive i need to buy something asap!

Emery Blando: I agree with you 100%. .. some people are shallow and concerned with appearances and fads. Animals are not throwaways! Many thanks for the intelligent question and comments!

Raleigh Lufkin: i know its wrongi hate it when paris hilton puts her dog in tiny tutu outfitsi wish i could put paris hilton into a xxxxxs tiny outfitand see how she feelsi hate it when dogs are being used in such a waytheyre here to comfort us and love usnot being used as toys...Show more

Sharolyn Claybourn: i have a bull terrier, a powerful prey driven dog but gets on fine with my cat. he has run the cat acouple of time but as always c! ome worse off. if your dog is brought up around the cat he will accept ! him into the pack.edit] obviously i wouldn't advise you get a terrier

Coy Tapley: Keep an eye on it ( no pun intended ) if it gets worse or appears talk to a vet he may have scratched the cornea which can lead to blindness .

Antwan Schrum: Take him to the vet. U don't want him to go blind or something.

Kellie Waycott: A declawed cat may or may not ever accept a dog. His prime defense is taken away now and that makes him more nervous and scared of dogs.Terriers usually are not the best type of dog to get as they do like to chase cats a lot and your cat doesn't need that kind of stress (especially being declawed).You might look for a larger dog that is good with cats (labs, golden retriever, etc - most larger field type dogs are best). I would not adopt a puppy. Adopt an older dog that is cat-friendly and has lived with them.A puppy will stress your cat out too much....Show more

Nikki Sypult: try paying a visit to your local vet and get the confurti! s (spelling?) it works wonders. Also start using the "Cowboy Magic" brand of shampoo..it's actually made for horses but where I work the groomers use it on all of the dogs and it is the best thing we have ever used. It is NOT harmful to them and it doesn't irritate their skin. It's truly amazing.
