How to teach my hamster the "paw" trick?
Q. Right now what I am doing is putting my finger bear his chest to make him put his paw on my finger and saying "paw". Then I say "good job good boy" and pet him. If I keep doing this (maybe sneaking some treats in too) will he learn the paw trick on command? Are there any other tricks I could teach him?

A. From what I know hamsters cannot be trained, if you want a good training pet I would suggest a rat. They are a lot smarter than hamsters.

How would you say and pronounce "paw" in German?
Q. ...For like, teaching a dog to give paw? I looked up how to say it and it said, "die Pfote" Is that right? If so, how do you pronounce it correctly? Don't want to be saying it wrong. Day Foot? Long "o" sound? That's my guess, but hopefully someone can help me out if I'm wrong! Thanks.

A. To a dog you'd say "Pfote!" (without "die") or "Gib Pfote!" (Give paw). You can look at the following page how it's pronounced, just click on the loudspeaker symbol: There is also listed "Gib Pfotchen", Pfotchen just means little paw.

A. The lingering terror of The Monkey s Paw is that we have no idea what the last wish was. Clearly, Mr. White wished for his son to be gone at least that s what it appears he wished for. But we don t know for certain. And even more chilling what will be the consequence of the last wish?

A. Resolution means "ending." If you read it to the end, you know the resolution. If you mean "moral" or "message" I think it is "Watch out what you wish for, you just might get it."

Hi all--Do you know if your kitty is a "South Paw?" & how?
Q. This just occurred to me. I really do know a lot about cats, but not this one & have never seen it asked. I realized that every time she wakes from a nap & says "Hello" she reaches out her RIGHT arm & paw. She also pats her toys with her right paw, as well as patting me with her right--when she senses I'm a little "down." Seems beyond coincidence, & after all, what "shouldn't" cats be right or left "pawed?" Have you ever noticed with your cat/s? Love to hear from you. No "nawss" please? (Or do I expect too much?) Thanks! Okay, sorry about that. Just sometimes "seems" people give my word or line to get points. I don't think this is about points, & I'm SERIOUS &am [cont.]

How do you put on a "Lil' Paw" Adjustable Harness for the Peitite Dog?
Q. I need some instructions cause the ones it came with are soo basic and ive never done it before. i just dont want to put it on her wrong and hurt her. any help would be appreciated it!!! Below is a link to a picture of my exact harness so you know what kind i have.
Asked by smurf - Sun Jul 27 18:57:18 2008 - Dogs - 1 Answers - Comments

A. Hi there...I just happened to be shopping on-line for one of these harnesses for my dog (we already own one), and your question came up...The easiest way I can explain it is as follows: Unhook the harness and lay it on the floor, making sure to have the small piece that divides the two longer pieces, in the middle. I then take her little paws and place one paw in one opening and the other in tthe other opening. With her still standing, I then pull the two clip ends up on her back and snap. When it is laying on the floor, it should look like a diamond with the smaller piece running down the middle. I know...kind of confusing...Hope it helps!

how do i teach my puppy "paw"?
Q. I tried the thing where you hold a smelly treat until they paw at it, then say "Paw" it worked in a day with my other dog, but the puppy i have now was already taught "Leave it" by her old owners, and just looks away instead of pawing my hand, what do i do?
Asked by Aaaahh! - Wed May 11 00:17:14 2011 - Dogs - 6 Answers - Comments

A. Show the treat, Touch the paw - say "Paw" or "Shake". Then actually lift the paw up and hold in your hand while saying "Paw" or "Shake" and give the treat while holding the paw. Repeat... shouldn't take too long!

A. The monkey paw teaches us that we should be happy with our lives. You should be careful what you wish for, when sitting around thinking how much your life could be better, or what you want in life. It also shows that no matter how bad you life can be, it could always be worse than that.

What does "south paw" mean in MLB talk?
Q. Also what is "apb" in MLB? or "balanced offence" mean? thanks.
Asked by nickysantor - Sat Jun 20 15:01:57 2009 - Baseball - 9 Answers - Comments

A. South Paw means a left-hander. From Wikipedia: "Ballparks are often designed so that batters are facing east, so that the afternoon or evening sun does not shine in their eyes. This means that left-handed pitchers are throwing with their south-side arm" Balanced Offense (not offence) means a lineup with all aspects (speed, smarts, walks, contact, homerun power, double power, etc.). APB, I think, stands for Annual Performance Bonus, which I believe is a bonus a player recieves if he does something by the end of the year (for example, they may get half a million if they hit 30 homeruns or something).

Puppy bite fingers while giving me "hello paw"?
Q. I tell him "Sit"-"Hello" then he gives me paw and start biting my fingers while I holding his paw! Can't make him stop! He's probably thinks I'm palying with him...any ideas???
Asked by vbell - Sat Mar 1 23:35:06 2008 - Dogs - 5 Answers - Comments

A. Get some of the icky tasting yellow Listerine, put it in a spray bottle, and put it on your fingers before you handle your puppy. THis is in place of Bitter Apple. which really lasts for a long time and is miserable if you get it in your own mouth. At any rate, he'll quickly learn that fingers don't taste good. And by the way, make sure you say NO gently but firmly when he starts chewing on your hand.
