I'm ordering puppy food for Kiba and I would also like to order his first batch of adult dog food because he's 1 in a couple months and I'd like to save up on delivery cost. The company I'm using has a normal adult dog food and they also have one spe
That's a great way to plan ahead! As a Havanese, Kiba could eat either of the diets you mentioned with no adverse consequences. However, if his puppy food is lamb based, I would be more inclined to try the small breed lamb based diet so as not to change protein sources. I always recommend starting with a small bag of the new food in the chance that Kiba either won't eat it or develops stomach upset from the new diet. Anytime you change to a new diet, please do so by gradually mixing the foods together over 5-7 days.

Hi Jack! I would recommend a pocket pet such as a guinea pig or a hamster. They are relatively low maintenance (you will have to change their cage regularly as well as feed and give water to daily), but are fine with being alone while you are at school. They are also great pets to have, I had a hamster growing up named Alvin and he was really cool. Good luck with becoming a vet in the future!

My hamster gave birth to 3 pups and now those 3 pups are 2 months old but one of them is very small and her weight is only 40 grams but she is very active eats the regular amount of food and also drinks water gradually.. is she ill?
Thanks for reaching out about Miko. Different pups grow at different rates. If acting well and seems healthy, monitor. Competition for food can slow growth, try providing multiple feeding stations to reduce competition. If you believe she is ill, a veterinary visit is recommended. Good luck.

Best dog food for small not active 10/1/2 yr old Chin
My personal favorite brands are Science Diet and Royal Canin. Both make excellent foods for all breeds, sizes and ages of dogs, make their own food in their own facilities, test the foods on real pets for palatability and quality and offer money-back guarantees if your pet doesn't like it.

I think my cat is jealous of my rabbit or doesn't like him. I brought Lenny home and Hitler doesn't want to come inside the house unless Lenny is in his bed (a carrying crate). He gets along great with my dog but seems to absolutely HATE Lenny. How
I am sorry to hear about the tension between your pets. I would consider giving your cat a "safe" area of the house where the rabbit doesn't have access so he feels like he can come inside without fear. I would also recommend Feliway multicat diffusers https://www.feliway.com/us/Products/FELIWAY-MultiCat-Diffuser which can relieve tension and also consider a calming supplement such as Zylkene or Composure, which can be purchased online.
