Lela (Lab/American Staffordshire Terrier)I rescued her 1 month ago. Lela loves it when we go on long hikes, usually 4 miles or more and she also loves going to the river.

 

What Breed Is My Dog?I just got this puppy from the humane society. She's around 7 weeks old and 3 pounds. She has really small paws and a lot of fur!

 

Zebra Finch Care?I have two zebra finches and I know that I have a male and a female. I discovered an egg today so I got a nest for them. I looked at websites about nesting material, but it didn't say if I could put in the nesting material myself or if my finches need to do that.

 

Services at Mobile Vaccination Trucks?Do mobile units take Medicaid for pets? My dog needs help and I am on public assistance.

 

Identifying My Porcelain Doll?I have a beautiful 24" baby doll with head, arms, and legs made of porcelain/bisque and a body made of fabric. The head, arms, and legs all swivel. The only marking I can find on the doll on back of the lower neck is "M B 1997" written in plain upper case print.

Replacing the Springs on an Old Couch?I have a 65-70 year old couch, that has been in the family since I was little. I am attached to it, but my kids think I should get rid of it and buy a new one. I can't afford that, I just want to repair it. It sags alarmingly.

What Breed Is My Dog?This is my little baby Belly. She is definitely a mix, but almost certainly not GSD. She stands 27" and weighs 65# all of it muscle, seriously this pup's cut like Rambo. People usually assume she is an APB mix because she is a short haired little muscle mutt.

 

Getting Hair Back to Natural Color?I have cut my hair because of a previous ombre disaster and I have sprayed a little lightner/peroxide, just a bit, all over my hair. But, ever since I can't get rid of the brassy colors. I dyed it 3 times with medium brown and my natural color is a brownish/blonde color.

 

Value of 1887 Scientific American Reference Book?I have an old 1887 Scientific American reference book. It is an official census of the United States by counties for 1880. How much is this book worth?

 

14th Birthday Party Ideas?I'm turning 14 on the 21st of March and I'm going to have a party in my house, probably with 15 of my friends, 9 boys and 6 girls. I have no idea what to do because I haven't had a party before. Any ideas? I want it to be a very successful party, but what to do?

 

What Breed Is My Dog?We adopted Jager when he was about a year old. He is taller than our female Rottie by about 3 inches, leaner in build, and fast and agile. He is also very smart, alert to his surroundings when we take him for his morning and nightly walks. He also has a curled tail. Is he part Rottie/Belgian Malinois?

Previously House Trained Dog Peeing Inside?I have a 2 year old Shih-Tzu, who until about 2 weeks ago was fully house trained and could hold in pee for hours at night and whilst I'm at work during the day. Lately he will pee in the house within a 1/2 hour of coming back from a walk. This is an ongoing problem. Any advice?

 

Outlets in One Room Don't Work?Last night I stayed up until about 2am playing my Xbox, and after that I watched Netflix until I fell asleep. When I woke up at about 10:30, none of my outlets worked. I tried unplugging and replugging everything in, but that didn't work. Then I tried to cut on my light, and that worked.

 

Dyeing Hair Grey?Where can I find a product to dye my hair grey?

 

Sour Smell from Kitchen Drain?My kitchen still has a "sour smell" emanating from the kitchen drain. I cleaned the garbage disposal with lots of ice cubes and lots of running water. I have a septic tank which was pumped 3 months ago and I was told I should never use bleach because it deteriorates the seals?

Dyeing Hair at Home?I have naturally dirty blond hair. I dyed the tips bright red with Kool Aid. I want to dye my hair dark brown with a kit I bought from a local drugstore. I've done some research, so the kit I bought is top rated. Will my tips look weird if I dye them brown?

 

Cleaning Rusty Metal Shelves?I've bought some antique, not valuable but great looking, metal shelves that are quite rusty. The shelves were originally red and I'd like to keep them in their original condition, but just tidy them up a bit. I don't mind if some of the rust stays.

 

Silk and Elastane Clothing Turned Yellow in Wash?I have a garment made of silk and elastane and I don't know how I managed to put it into the wash and take it out yellow. It was originally pink. The max temperature is 40 Celsius. Does anyone know if I can fix it and how? I just wore it once so I'm pretty sad.
