Unless it's puppy formula, milk is bad for puppies. In fact, after they are weaned, they begin to stop producing the enzyme to break down puppy milk too. So that's very dumb. The milk can cause stomach issues which in turn often creates dehydration, which is a fast killer in baby animals.

You shouldn't be feeding your dog straight bread. I'm actually having a hard time thinking of any animal that would live off of bread and milk. Dogs have nutritional needs and actually don't require many grains whatsoever. They do need some veggies and protein. Especially puppies; puppy diets should be high in protein.

I'm curious why you decided to stop feeding the dog dog food to replace it with a much worse diet. Did it break it's leg or something? You need to go back to kibble, and if you want to do raw food please do your research first. Raw diet is made up of mostly raw meats. It's very important to have a correct diet for a puppy since it can affect their growth and health at such a young age.

As for the fish, some fish have preservatives that are toxic to dogs and may kill small dogs. Raw fish can also be dangerous to dogs if not properly prepared, and also certain species of fish can make dogs sick. However the food may not even be the cause of illness. To me it sounds like parvovirus, but there are a plethora of potentially lethal illnesses it could be or it could be just an upset stomach from all the bread and milk. You won't know unless you bring it to a vet. I'd honestly say make an appointment to go in tomorrow because baby animals go downhill fast.

How the fuck do you have internet access and think it's a good idea to feed a dog bread? Google "basic puppy care for retards" (or equivalent in your third world language) like you should have before you got the damn thing.

I also suggest searching "how to discreetly bury a dead dog" because vomiting = dehydration risk and it won't drink water.

Are cactuses part of the animal kingdom?

No but they take about as much work as you are willing to expense.

If you don't name that dog Devo then you are a humorless fuck.

>>2315742
Because they are comparing them to most dogs.

the real question is why do people think they're clean?

they're fucking gross

>>2315749
Dogs are smarter than cats

Cute! Have you thought about taking them?

Alternatively you could also fence off your veggie patch.

you can make a half assed fence and then plant some nice forage for them in a more accessible place like timothy or clovers or orchard grass

that way you can all be happy.. the buns get to eat and you can enjoy their company without sacrificing your crops

>I didn't want to give them to the guy who'd butcher them
>so I killed them and threw them away

>>2320343
>but I knew he would butcher them as soon as they arrived there.
Wait why would he do that's if he raises chickens?

OP, why would you go on the Internet and tell lies?

Horrifying.

An organism is part of a complex web of interactions that follow it from birth until after death. Everything from orcas preying on whale calves to entire ecosystems cropping up around a whale's corpse in the abyssal depths are dependent on large whales.

No organism can be removed without disrupting many other organisms, even if you think it is worthless.

Are you from Japan or Norway? They are famous whale-eaters. If all whales would become extinct, you'll suck your own dicks instead of eating tasty whale meat like one at the photo. Maybe, I say some simple things, but killed whale females would not give birth to next generation of whale calves.
Are my words understandable?

>>2320685
Are you suggesting that the only niche occupied by filter-feeding whales is for human consumption?

I've grown a recent fondness for reptiles. I don't really want to own one so where's the best place to see or handle them for a short time?

>>2320698
in theory you can go to a pet store and ask to handle it under the pretense of a potential purchase

There are reptile ambassador shows but I don't know much

Find friend who has one

go to a zoo and break the glass

buy a snek

>>2320698
Do you have a science museum nearby? The one around here has educational events every now and then where they let the public hold and touch various reptiles and tarantulas.

dump her

cats should be a deal breaker anyway

>>2320273
Wait until her cat dies before moving in together, or try to find an allergy medication that works for you.

There's not really any other options aside from splitting up.
Maybe she'd give up the cat. But in truth I wouldn't get rid of a pet for a boyfriend, and I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with someone who did.

Maybe talk to her and see if she can leave the cat with with a friend or family member. I wouldn't want to date someone who would dump their pets at a shelter for a relationship that probably won't work out anyway.

Other than that, try different allergy meds. I know some peoples allergies go away/get less severe after long exposure to animals so it might be good for you.

The same reason you can't survive on a diet of hay, while a lot of animals can.

>>2320130
Is really this a serious question?
>How come lions can survive on a diet of raw meat, but my rabbit died when I only fed him steak?
>How can clown plecos eat wood, but when I do it I get sick?
>How can I eat chocolate, but my dog died from it?
I shouldn't have to explain any further.

primarily because humans didn't actually descend from apes

>>2319905
why would you do that?

>>2319968
I need some. For stuff...and things.
